I used to bomb even on freestyle boards. USED TO. Took it camping once, decided to try a mt/hill/dunno what it was, speed wobbles, crash. Then like an hour to go find the closest thing to a doctor because he was the guy who took the fishing hooks out of drunk fishermens hands, who mostly wondered; " you did what?" why in the world would you?" "fool child"...

Just ordered the supermodel and indy 215 trucks. We have this hill by my house that not too big but you get going a good 35 mph, should be here by next week. I tried shortboarding and ate sheet every time, so back to longboarding.

Long boarding seems fun but I prefer vert Skateing (Skateboard)
My epicest crash was when I tried to Ollie drop in and instead I slipped did a backflip and busted my wrists arms and legs for over a week.

Longboarding since '09 :), before I came to Aussie, I always wanted to learn to surf, thankfully I was introduced (well, through the power of YouTube and originalskateboads) to long boarding. The rush you get when bombing hills or just carving some roads is just awesome! Long boarding ftw
Btw which boards do u guys use and which music do you listen to when lb-ing?

I'm bombin Moscow hills from 09 as well )

Current board is 'Concept' by NeverSummer - long and springy!

I mostly do cruising (in stiff traffic jams I just leave the car and kick the deck) and downhill (we have several sweeeeet places to bomb/carve here)

As my board is totally flat, I don't do much flips but dig the boardwalking/dancing

Music is either hip-hop (old school mostly) or ska like Sublime or Skoidats - fast, funny, rhythmic

I also got a question!

What styles u ride and what tricks do u do guys?
