Title: Terrain
Post by: tcatin6669 on October 23, 2009, 03:21:01 AM
I was just curious what kind of terrain you can't use these on?  I'm sure its pretty safe to assume not ice or snow. What about loose dirt or gravel?  Do these things have any trouble with going up hills?

stay away from wet grass(slippy), wet drains, cobbles, looose gravel, sand, water :P,

and yes you can use them on a hill, but you probably need some more experience for that, as it can be quite dangerous, depends really on what you plant ot do.

P.S. you can use the Bocks on Pebbles at the beach... although when everyone is looking and you go running on to pebbles and fall over, its not fun :P

wet grass is fine. Just need some tire socks (or even better hoofies) to make it pleasant. You can bock on gravel but it's not very fun. And snow actually isn't that bad :D as for hills, depends what kinda hill you are talking. Climbing a mountian, it's been doen :D Wouldnt reccomend it tho. Normal kinda slopes are ok.

:D Good Times!

And also note that running across a pebble beach on bocks is very very tiring and hardwork!

Snow is fine, as long as it's pretty fresh. I've done a frontflip in the snow.
