Glanz X-Board

Juniper Foo | Sep 27, 2004

Surfboards have now joined the league of All-In-One toiletries and gizmos proliferating retail shelves. Japanese company BE-S has developed a polyurethane board light enough to carry, yet is sufficiently versatile for body boarding, surfing, and even snowboarding. Unfortunately, the only place those of us in tropical Singapore are ever going to be able to test the board's snowboarding competence is down 60m of gentle, well-trampled slope out at Jurong's Snow City center.
