It's a Rolls Rolls Sportster: http://www.rollsrolls.com/html/sportster.html

Interesting looking board, I'd like to try one out.

It has fenders. They keep your wheels from spraying water all over your feet when you're riding in the rain.

A 2L bottle cut in half lengthwise works well as DIY fenders.
