I live in northern California and I got a dirtsurfer about 5 years ago. It's really fun but I don't have the skills these guys do! Definitely harder than it looks. The best part is the warning on the bottom of the dirtsurfer. Warning dirtsurfing is a potentially dangerous sport. My dirtsurfer has knocked out so many people I'm gonna put it in mma and see how it does. Hahaha
yo in one those shots in the part he landed and strait up bent the rim. that was like a 3 foot drop. thing does not look too sturdy and if you can taco a 3 foot drop then its not worth the $450. spend your money on a decent bmx that you can actually do cool tricks on or put it to a mountain bike that can do stuff other than cross country.
@shua94 The board has a rear calf lever that activates a disk brake on the rear wheel. Look behind the rear leg. Simply lean back on that lever with your rear calf and it slows down smoothly.
Hey should I get a dirtsurfer or a longboard? I live in a neighbor hood with decent hills and big backyards. My friend lives on a mountain. Thanks. Great video by the way
@Michskate13 longboard, its cheeper and you can push it. from the looks of this all you can do is cruise downhill which is not that bad. i just dont think its not worth 450
longboard, its far better, u can carve, slide, drift, speed, u can ride them on flat ground for commuting, cheaper proberly, on small ones u can even ollie, u can get huge wheels for rougher roads.... its a great sport, i left normal sk8 for it, new as soon as i steeped on her!! they are fucking amazing!!!!!
yes, i got one and i use it on flat ground . way better than a longboard as its bike wheel it ride really smootly . really easy to learn i learned this sport then i start praticing then i did world championchip 1 month after i started . this was in 2005
Really nice Video, i wish i had more time to get mine done, we got some nice never seen footage from our trip, and alot from top challenge05 and 06. JM is in the vid right?
that jump at 3:58 is nice. btw i live in red deer but would you recommend the 16" or 20" for me? i want to take it down some mountain paths, some pavement, but not lots of pavement but also lots of jumps and stairs.
I think that you will do best with a DH. Thats the 20" flexi model. You cannot really ride down stairs with the 16" flexi. If you want to be very stable and fast on road then get the GP because it is lower to the ground. The DH will flex when you're taking corners and you don't want that. I'm the blonde guy in the video and we sell dirtsurfers in Calgary at my shop. If you're interested give powerinmotion a shout.
Im roman ..iam from guadalajara , mexico.practice dirtsurfer kite and mountain ...you are best..in dirtsurfer... my record velocity is 105 kilometers in the freeway...
IDK if its fair or not, but my record speed is like 160km/h, being next to a car and then letting go at that speed. Ive been trying to get some videos to put here on youtube, but couldnt be able to
DUDE!!! Awesome 360 at 1:23...I'm having trouble with that one on my board...then again I ride streets and highways, not off road. Any tips on getting the landing?
hey i like the video man, its siiick. i wish i had places like that to ride in chile. the grinding thing, what board was that?? 16 inch wheels i presume, is it?
ty man i checked it it says the closest place is new york cuz i live in connecticut but is that the ONLY place or could there be like a local store thats not listed? psh i need onee
No, all stores are listed - sorry. If you want your local store to carry them, just ask them to order one for you. Dirtsurfer will sell them one and they can sell it to you.
how do the disc breaks work.... and how easy are they to ride.... im a longboarder and really like the idea of the dirt surfer and am seriously thinking about getting one as a result of seeing this video.
via a swing arm that is attached to the frame at the nose. The arm is bolted through, and pivots on, two bearings inserted into the frame at the nose. The other end of the swing-arm has drop-outs made to accept a standard bmx wheel.
There is a brake lever behind the rear calf. Push against it with your calf slightly and it activates a disk brake on the rear wheel. They are actually extremely easy to stop. Yes, we yield to pedestrians and people on horseback.
i am building my dirtsurfer from scratch but i'l be using 12 inch wheels :-( because i found them at an old man with 2$ each . Do u guys think it will be god four freestyle?
i want to sell mine.i cant ride it on the condition of the roads here in greece...They are the worst roads ever.if u are interested tell me...???
