Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2012 I've been using the Sole Skate at my college campus in So. California that has a lot of hills and flat areas, concrete and asphalt roads. Overall, I love using the Sole Skate, but you do have to be very careful riding this thing. Pros: +Super convenient. It is very light to carry around and put under a desk, against the wall in the classroom, etc. Its portability is unbeatable. When i was younger, i used to ride a Razor scooter around, and even though it folded up, the Sole Skate still beats it in lightness and compactness. +Fun to ride. It really is quite a lot of fun to ride around campus. It is not the most stable thing (more on that later), but it's really good carving around corners once you get the gist of how to ride it well. I do have trouble carving back and forth to control my speed down a hill like longboarders do though and i'm not sure if it's because of my own skill level or not. I find the design of the Sole Skate easy to prepare yourself up for a long corner, but hard to shift your weight around quick enough to carve back and forth quickly (i guess that was a con). +"What the heck is that?" reactions
