Would you choose this product in preference to the 8ft power slide board?

Its a good product I like it, one con its does slide around on carpet and it doesn't stay flat all the time. But i would recommend it
1690231
yes. I am not that tall so trying to power myself another foot or so would prove to be a tall task, at least for me. Gaj

I would just because I am shorter (5'4") and looking for a cardiograph workout. If you are a taller individual and a more experienced skater you might want a longer one.

I recall from the manual that the recommemded dimensions were pretty large...something like 10' on every side. We are pretty close to that but we only have a couple feet next to the slide side. It has not been a problem.

measure the length of the slide, you want a cover that is going to be a few inches longer on each end. it is also stated in the Q&A; on the product description.

If I was you I'd try to get a smaller board width so tricks come easier a wider board means the more power you need to use

I think it would require some creative modifications to attach a slide. You may do better with a stand alone slide.

This is very feasible. You just have to make certain that you have enough weight rating on the slide for the application. Either 200 or 500 lbs rated slides should work, unless the cabinet is very small. Then you can use a smaller rated slide.

I think this board would be appropriate. My child is around the same size & loves it. Her older male cousin is taller & heavier. He enjoys the board as well. He, of course, has a variety of other boards yet says this one is still fun.

I'm actually not sure. There is a slide carrier that might be what you need to use.

When referencing thousands of slides, the surface area of this light box is just too small (for any reasonable speed anyway.) Also, light fall off away from the bulb is too much for critical reviewing. BUT, for just putting slides on the unit and "quickly" looking for 1st pass "go, no go" analysis, it can suffice. You must keep the box fairly level to keep slides from falling off the box. Another positive is tha light box is relatively inexpensive. Also you'll be well served using a magnifying glass!! Have fun!

get the 2in.x30ft.it will be enough to do both boards with a little left over.

It will not fit, since the slide is a little over 8", and probably could accommodate something around 7.5" at most.

I have never done a slide before so I really can't answer the question. However, this board is a bit heavier than my friend's 44 inch atom board tho. I guess if you change the wheels to wheels that you know can slide, then do so. Sorry If this doesn't help

I think you should really check out the globe bantam board. It's really sturdy too and works just as well. My friend has it and he really likes it. Its just a few inches longer but it makes no difference. It just might make it easier. Trust me. >.<

not a good fit for you. The angle will be very steep and the slide will prob. flex too much for older kids. I reinforced mine with 2x4s (not part of the original mfg's plan)

In theory yes; I didn't buy the 6" to compare. 8" should provide better mid/low range frequency response, but 6" would be adequate if your system has a subwoofer. I bought the larger size because it's diameter was easier to install in my ceiling. What I liked the most was that they were low profile. Also, their installation was very easy and secure; definitely a well thought out product.

We have 2 boards. Both are about 10 feet. Unless you are too heavy for the specifications of the board, 10 feet will be fine. Make sure you look for a 6 inch thick board. They are much more stable than the 4 inch boards.

Yes. The slide will clear 7/8" or so. You could also use 1/4" piece of plywood to assure the clearance.
