Dirtsurfer at 120 Kilometers Per Hour

It looks like Dirtsurfer Team Germany is getting ready to bring home top honors again this year.

Our friends over in the Black Forest are at it again as they practice riding on the Autobahn at 120 kilometers per hour. Nihat Uysal and Andreas Pfister shot this amazing video of their high speed runs. Keep in mind that Nihat is holding a camera while he’s riding at those speeds.

If you look closely, you’ll see Nihat’s shadow and you can see him holding his brand new video camera as he records Andy blazing down the fabled mountain road.

As always, Nihat and the team from Germany have done an amazing job. We look forward to seeing them compete at Top Challenge again this year. I also understand that they’ll be making the trip across country to race at the Maryhill Festival of Speed, too.

Good luck, guys.
Cheers,
Brian

Dirtsurfer USA Offers 30 Day Money Back Guarantee

Dirtsurfer USA is going live on the web today with their new 30 Day Money Back Guarantee.

Why the special offer? Simple. The more people who try it, the more people will buy it. What the U.S. was running into with the original business plan was that retail stores are VERY skeptical of anything new. It is incredibly difficult to even get them to try it out, let alone to stock it for sale.

Another obstacle is that since Inline Boarding is such a new sport, people don’t know if they can even ride a crazy two wheeled board without getting hurt. Everybody wants to try it out first before they spend their hard earned money for one. Since the Dirtsurfer is only available in a very few locations in the U.S., it made sense to offer it direct to consumers from the web site.

To overcome some of these obstacles, Dirtsurfer USA is now offering the 30 Day Guarantee and two ways to pay… one lump sum and save $40 or as two easy payments. It costs a little more to split it over two months but it’s easier to afford it that way.

The company is so confident that riders will love the experience that they are even willing to pay the shipping BOTH ways. There is NO financial risk to the rider.

As an added incentive, you can sign-up for a FREE Dirtsurfer Magazine subscription and weekly newsletter. The Magazine is a full color glossy publication with reports, race articles, interviews, great places to ride and more. The newsletter is full of timely tips and news from the rider community.

Be sure to check it out. Dirtsurfer USA says there are only 30 Dirtsurfer left in stock and orders are coming in. So, if you want one soon, you better do something about it TODAY. The next batch of Dirtsurfers isn’t due to arrive in the U.S. until May.

Cheers,
