It's only a matter of time until snowboard manufacturer Burton comes along. Here's an early (homemade) prototype, shaped out of a Burton board.

They guy in the picture commented: "Cutting it out of a Burton snowboard was cheaper than getting a regular slalom deck. It also allowed me to select the thickness in the front vs the rear of the board as snowboards are thicker under the bindings then further back."

Great idea! I hope he doesn´t regret it. It will be awful hard to snowboard that one.
