John Laudin and Bob Glashan hit up Santa Fe and hooked up with some family friends of John’s and got their son Henry and friends Lucas and Rahj cruising the local hill. Big thanks to the Lanman’s for letting us shack up and get a home cooked meal or two!
Read the letter below and rate it from 1 to 5 on the sob-scale:
1. Anyone who buys a Ripstik doesn’t deserve to live, much less ride a Freebord
2. Boo hoo - would you like some cheese with that whine?
3. Sell your Ripstik on eBay and cut your losses
4. Tough break but I’ve heard way worse
5. Give this guy a Freebord just to shut him up!
Represent 08 Germany continued with a stop at an old Castle at the top of a hill in Asperg. Thanks to Brian and crew for sending in video footage.
Riders: Mäx, Danyo, Tomsch, Flo, Simon, Jonas, Katana
Koanalu surf shop in Albuquerque New Mexico hosted a ride and the Represent Tour stopped in. The shop had a pretty good turn out and went to some pretty good hills. Some people already had bords and knew how to ride and some didnt so we got them riding by the end of the day. Big shout out to Minh for showing us around.
Brian Kozul and friends hosted another Freebord Represent stop over the weekend in Stuttgart Killesberg, Germany. Freeborders and longboarders met up at Höhen Park to ride and chill - Danyo, Mäx, Killian, Chrisi, Tomsch, Alex, Aveal, Jonas, Simon, Flo, Christoph, Pollemann, Lukas and Katana (Brian) all came out to represent. Later on everyone drove to the Freebord Ranch in Eberdingen for a barbecue and some sweet night runs in Hochdorf.
Check out some pics of the fun below. Thanks Brian!
Freebord (and Jonathan Ehm’s underwear) were featured this weekend in Le Dauphiné Liberé, a French regional newspaper from the Alps. The article, for those of us that don’t read French, talks about the Freebord ride, its growth as a sport, and the Represent Tour in Europe and the US.

John Laudin and Bob Glashan cruised the FB toaster over to Scottsdale with Kevin and met up with Stephen and Nicholas. They showed us sick runs in gated communities we never would have seen! After Scottsdale Kevin took off and the four of us were off to Fountain Hills to meet up with Sam. Sam was a no-show so we drove around and found some even sicker hills!
