my guess is it would actually probably slow it down. glass has an incredibly low coefficient of friction. not to mention it probably would not even stay on the board long haha

Meh.  All that hooplah and it blew up first run.  Also, no wax or edges and the guy even said you couldn't predict it at all.  Certainly looks cool, but more in teh sense of office wall art than something functional.  Cool that they could get the glass to flex at all though, that part was interesting to me for sure.

Towards the end you could tell her gained a better sense of the board, in the beginning it looked like it was in fact, unpredictable. I'd love to give it a whirl to see how it feels.

Really? You have always wanted Signal Snowboards to make a glass snowboard... REALLY? You actually had that thought. "I hope to high heavens that Signal makes a glass snowboard!!!"

No.
