to stomp or not?

who uses stomp pads, and if so, what type?  My old board had a single rubber pad with round studs and that worked pretty well.  The new ones seem to be mostly the individual little spikes, or I guess you could run with none at all and just jam your foot against your back binding.

now that, is a retarded idea (not the 6 pack, that is genius, but the original idea of sticking a bottle to your board.)

i applaud them for the idea but i dont think it will take off

i certainly would not be spending 30 bucks on a stomp pad which takes over the half middle section of my beautiful board!

I imagine the bottle would just get annoying eventually. And clogged with powder. And I imagine it would freeze.

what happens when you unstrap and need to skate around? “oh wait for me guys, i need to remove my bottle”

bottle looks rather easy to remove
the guy removed it while doing a jump in the video

i was more concerned it would be too loose and come off during riding

hmmm skating…dont see it being a problem for me
dont know how you skate though
