plenty of mild days to get out and skate, not always dry but not always raining either. The song is Trouble by Trouble Andrew.
“Yea there’s quite a few in this video, benda’s on one, Solomon is on one, I’m on one for a fair amount, Brian is on a hellcat, theres a landy or 2 in there for sure.”
“man vancouvers got the best hills and bud and im stuck longboarding here in the dirty south :[”
“I’m no expert but if you want speed for downhill you want to tighten the trucks to prevent wobble right? How much is up to the rider. It’s a feel thing.”
“i think a big part about getting rid of wobbles is a lot of practice. you train the muscles in your legs ankes and feet to be more steady. i would say its 30% trucks 70% rider. practicepracticepractice!!!”
“thanks! thats so awesome!! i just ordered a rayne avenger and am going to work on ma dh. i have a dancer and i bomb that but i want some thing made for it haha. so now i got some thing to do ma jigs on and some thing to bomb the fuck outa hills!! maybe one day ill be able to come out and bomb with you guys. “fingers crossed”"
“This is the loaded hammerhead longboard. It’s got a nice flex to it and turns really nicely. I had a tough time deciding between getting this or a carveboard, but I found the hammerhead is more versatile and can go at higher speeds before wobble sets in.
Well this video has been up for about a year now and I never would have thought some fairly uninteresting footage of me rolling around on my driveway would get this many hits. I should post another of it carving down hills like it was made for. It’s a great board and I’m surprised it isn’t available any more. If you’re in doubt, pull apart a flowboard and make a hammerhead, it’s well worth it.”
boredfelipe April 27, 2010 Mellow downhill. Asheville area longboarding. Skateboarding in the Asheville, North Carolina area takes on a new dimension with endless miles of winding mountain roads. This is different from the skateboarding you see on TV with stairs, ledges, kickflips, ollies, 10 stair treflips. Skateboarding and longboarding are against the law in Ashville so be careful and wear a helmet. All of the riders in this video are expert riders with boards and equipment than IS NOT for sale in local stores. DO NOT grab your cheap (anything bought at Zumies, krown, stock sector 9, secter 9, pseudo surf-culture chinese-made crap) and head to the top of your nearest hill in flip-flops and boardshorts. You might survive a few times but sooner or later you WILL pay the price in flesh and blood. These are some shots I took in spring of 2009 and re-edited. Don’t ask me for the exact location of the roads.

I longboarded in Chicago over the summer and it was really cool. My friend had a skateboard and nobody else had anything but it was still fun. Since I have two boards now I hope to go back in the next little while and skate around the city. While I love my country hill bombing, you just feel really free and empowered tearing up a big city and flying past people. Say, is it illegal to board in city limits in Chicago? Word on the street is that it is, ohhh well
Documentary about the Longboarding Community at North Park University in Chicago, IL. Created by Erik Olesund for Video Production I.
This got directed this way from Andrei and Adam Colton and I love it.
I love longboarding videos. The music. The mood. The visuals. There is always extremely perfect fitting music to go with stunning visuals. Whether its beautiful mountains or hard hitting tricks in a downtown area it never seizes to amaze me how great this little community is. We love what we do, and we do what we love yknow and what better a life lesson that that. This video has good sound effect timing too.
