Etchy - you are aware that stalking pretty young girls with thermal night vision goggles is against the law - right?

I'm trying to get my missus to get a Vixen - but she once broke her shoulder when getting out of a cab - so I think bailing might kill her....

Female-specific sports gear is a load of bollocks half the time. Double the price for some pink paint and floral graphics on a smaller, softer version of the original.

I agree with Warq, the Vixen looks like a piece of crap. Get her atleast a comp95 or paint one of your old boards up for her.

My Gf uses the GI patrol I bought for my daughter. She seems to do quite well on it the few times she went riding with me. Hopefully she'll get out a lil' more this year.

Well said. The main concern for the girl is the same for the dude, weight and ride style, and I guess how thick you wallet is might be a factor as well.
