[Markmeister182]

[gasariblog]

Very powerful idea!

[TheAndyNZ]

THAT is Awsome...

[driaslow]

@inda5club53: what's hotsteeze? some website??? please reply

[Boydkholmes]

GAY!

[AHippyInAtree]

@SaKcAj its a promotional thing for tony hawk douche-

[MrJamieb81]

what a waste of an engine to put it on a skate..

[azjlw427]

That's us Australians! We love our V8s

[FutaBrooke]

@SaKcAj ...good point. Agreed and +1'd

[boardshopaustralia1]

Nice video....You got an amazing skateboard!

[MikeyMacization]

Dumbest idea ever. Pure genious

[caramellkidd95]

i'd love to ride that thing, people are just saying bad things coz they don't have that. massive engine

[SaKcAj]

Amerifags...

[FutaBrooke]

@SaKcAj Yes, they are most certainly Amerifags - especially since they live in Australia.

[PoProstuKarol]

"I have never heard of one being build before"

Yeah, i haven't heard of a gas-turbine powered toilet being build before either. It's not a very good reason to make such a ridiculous thing

[xy274]

hows the crash test rating?

[drsushimon]

let them have their fun. jeez.

[R3skeen]

since they fade out during the test, something tells me the skate-Car was a bad idea

[voniak289]

what? no kableeeewwwi??

[peacheslamond]

thank god for the big red button. it will save many lives

[gmejlmee]

That was one engine with four tires and one HUGE chicken trying to ride it...

[fjbutch]

Lighten up everybody, seen stranger things, V8 Chainsaws, minature working V12s....bla bla ...

[meetmadman]

too difficult to ride ..

[ddong0001]

Her(헐~)

[PetrolDemon]

and the point is...

@LeroyRifkin there not rednecks, they dont live in the bush llike americans, in australia these people are called geniouses, and if your such a pussy and scared of speed go buy a hybrid or something

[CallOfDutyAustralia]

it stopped being a skateboard at 0:02

[CallOfDutyAustralia]

so its a V8 lawn mower.... thats what it looks like. nothing like a skateboard

[cheezyscooters]

thats madd as :P

[PoCkzHD]

Where can I purchase one of these uhhmm skateboards?

[MidoriMartini]

this is so dumb

[REPOMAN24722]

v8's suck inline 6 is better RB26DETT ftw

[IIZODIIAC]

@REPOMAN24722 wrong V8s dont suck they are in a prestigious class of there own.

[REPOMAN24722]

@IIZODIIAC your just jealous that my 4 cylinder SR20VET can beat your v8 fart box

[cantworkitout]

lets see you do a bunny hop... *facepalm* as much as a 638 hp engine is win, this is a fail, imo

[nzbbs]

These people have way too much money to waste!

[jonnois]

where is the follow up vid????

[W00TausW00T]

638 hp holy shit my dads 69 camaro only has 500 hp love to see this

[nottface]

[Skateinfection]

Check my channel for Daewon songs new part!

Daewon Song - "The Berrics, New years dae"

[elsewherebeats1]

1 bong: came up with a stupid concept but knew it. 2bongs: thought it was a good concept. 20 bongs: pull my ss commodore apart and put the engine on a skateboard. Seriously!!!!

[zJudge12]

they are going to kill him...

[ABSNproduction]

Do a skid.

[skyline3123]

reminds me of the show Zoids

[gtwnrepn]

Its a waste of fukin money if you ask me

[THE1jan]

king kong doesnt need a skateboard....

[pellepropell]

This is why I hate skateboarding...

[Laur1eharry]

Sif you wouldnt fang it!

[Swoopy4595]

way too many cashed up bogans out there

[emmo136]

@Swoopy4595

That's so true it needs saying again "way too many cashed up bogans out there" . And the climax of the film, wow! how he drives off woo hoo!

[kay0ed]

that was silly.

[fgordon2012]

This one skate video is stunning. A web site called instantskatedotcom quite often has awesome skate videos.

[ClaritySWE]

WOW That was so fast! Almost faster then not having the engine at all!

[keebabjeol]

"I heard you liked skateboards, so we put a skateboard in your car so you can skate while you drive.."

[Renegade30]

I really like the part where the video ends just as he starts the throttle

[ma1ice2you]

THERE WAS SO MUCH SPEED, IT WENT JUST AS FAST AS I WAS EXPECTING. TOP NOTCH VIDEO, I REALLY ENJOYED IT.

not.

[sdavis732010]

so did he ride it & if so where is the vid

[Brodieayyye]

yeahh oh well, its still pretty maddd though

[Brodieayyye]

@hirolla888 how?

[AlexTehGr8]

LAME

[crxmad]

The varied opinions amaze me. It is irrelevant what we think ie whether its a waste of time or if we like it or not considering most of us probably couldnt afford to build one ourselves etc. But if Tony Hawk can handle that then hes the man!

[CHKNSFKN]

waste of an engine, shoulda put it in my car

[Sohave]

Rat Fink and Big Daddy Roth would love this!

[elijahizere]

lol i saw that at monster skatpark under a blanket a few eeks ago when i was at the v8's

[lolaturfaces]

I see what tony hawks is doing.. Hes breaking his legs with that thing, then putting the engine in his car.. GENIUS.

[fionaNESS]

holy shit

the revving sounds sounded scary

[xp0]

Am I the only one thinking this will end up at Travis pastranas place? :P

[eckyspondoolie]

I love this great invention. I want one. How much are they. Do they come with seatbelts? What does the horn sound like?

[Dadabba]

13 of December!!! What Happened next?

[twistymcslide]

SO WHAT HAPPENED . . WELL PAST DEC 3-5TH ... ANY NEW VIDEOS ???? I WANNA SEE IT RUN ...

[xasdrubalex]

i'd rather have a skateboard in my car than a car in my skateboard.

dumbest thing ever.

[squigglecasey]

@xasdrubalex 

[tony4high5]

@xasdrubalex lol

[0s0e0a0n0100]

@xasdrubalex its the most sickest thing ever

[eckyspondoolie]

Mass produce them, the dumb yanks will buy them by the millions seeing that they are flat out raping foreign countries for all the excess oil they can get ther murdering hands on.

[littlemimus]

@eckyspondoolie cool story bro. dont tell it again

[littlemimus]

@eckyspondoolie im gonna rip your head off and shit down your neck.

[eckyspondoolie]

@littlemimus Come and get me I live in Anchorage. Bring a coat its freezing.

[southsydney]

Viva TalkRadar!!

[roisabborrar]

Why , just becouse you could or ???

[whoisrikk1]

do an ollie now smartass!

[zzracer]

driver covers most part of radiator, and try to jump or sth with this heavy engine

[Spas117]

We're going to be responsible for the death of Tony Hawk.....

[mattymanks]

Did this end up coming out at all over the weekend? Watched the telecast and never saw it...

[vn01208503]

they converted it into a small car not a skateboard anymore :(

WE WANT JETPACK!!

[Lex1888]

wow this was boring! hoped to see somethin cool :-(

[CSTATB]

It's not really a V8 skateboard - it's just a really unsafe car.

[LPsunsmile]

Damn this shit is NOT necessary!!

[technicaltom1]

ID love to see more of the off road racer in the background in the workshop,

[Xboxlivemgear]

This video is the biggest disappointment that I've come across on youtube. I mean, the dude probably didn't even touch the throttle, he was just going forward from either vibration, or that it probably doesn't even have an actual gear box.

[Tukimoshi]

@Xboxlivemgear They obviously want to save it until December 3rd-5th. As far as we can tell, it looks like a viable project that may work. This was just shown off yesterday (apparently) so wait for an actual video to show up.

[KRice37]

Who cares if its useless; it's cool as hell...

[psajmonpl]

chuj pokazali

[div8digital]

Looks like Tony Hawk is having fun with his toy! pic posted on his twitter.

[GLDHUNTRS]

Why do people waste time and money on worthless projects like this one ...That thing is useless .But i guess when he hits something at 150 he wont walk away from it..

[jmu03182]

pointless. not a skateboard in any sense of the word. how many of those horses does it put down? 50cc would have been better, not 5000+. i hate australians. as bad as yanks with their gas guzzlers

[steaknkibble]

@jmu03182 For your information, the average Australian car is a 1.6L 4cyl and we spend ~$25 a week on fuel, that's about 19L. I think you're just jealous of our nice white teeth.

[k0rig4n]

useless ...

[DarknessDave]

So lame

[DREwestcoast]

uselessness brought to a whole new level

[TEDW4LK3R]

really boring video. I was hoping Tony Hawks was going to ride it!!

[pcarlson1979]

Pointless.

Electric would be better. I have a 2hp (1500watt) electric bike that could beat this thing. Why bother having 650hp when you can only really use 0.2hp?

[mailmanbam]

@pcarlson1979 cuz its when overkill is barely enough

[Wtfamisupposedtosay]

@vampost ROFL GOOD IDEA xD

[wayneo919]

kick flip it then run it down a rail ha ha ha ha that would be funny......

[happyrichie]

looks like a shit idea 2me

[renanrdeathmetal]

ridiculus

Die TH

[thestoopmedia]

THIS SHOULD GET TAKEN TO BATHURST! THE SKATEBOARD RACE THERE IS ONE OF THE GNARLIEST IN THE WORLD, check out NEWTONS PLAYGROUND videos if you want to see what im talking about, best one from last year is called BRING OUT THE MEAT WAGON.

[tuf929]

TRAILER BURNOUT WITH A DIFFERENCE IS A VIDEO YOU GOT TO SEE

[lugeyourmind]

i have just finished racing Bathurst streetluge , i would REALY like to ride that adapted to my LUGE for a demo next year !! unmotorized it takes me 63 seconds skyline to half conrod straight . top speed around the 110 mark ...

With V8 and KUSTOM luge its endless !!!

[treborreldak]

Yeah... but what for?

[Menelvagore]

@Fr6do Ahahaha. You mad?

[Fr6do]

@Menelvagore welll, it seems like you know nothing about Australia. calling us rednecks. it's an american term to describe hillbillies and yokles - also american terms. But most of the Australians these days are in fact boat people, who came migrate from china and india. I didn't mean to go off at you like a hypocrite, but i was appauled that Aussies were being compared to rednecks

[wowcolors]

How is the power transferred to the wheels?

[bullfr0gz]

@wowcolors looks to me like a hydraulic pump powering a motor?

[Samqdf]

@bullfr0gz thats right, there would be no other way, not much of the power would go to the ground, dont tel the bogans that though

[DavetheChimp]

be your own engine

surely that is the beauty of skateboarding

[paule720]

WHY? oh, because they can....

[Jandor86]

that is what i like about countries where v8 is common thing; U CAN PUT IT EVERYWHERE!!! :D

[WFROSE]

Someone is going to get hurt, and they have no one to blame but themselves...

On that note, they'll probably make a new Jackass movie just for this.

[skb0rzn]

WE can do this but we can't get off oil and cannot create clean energy?

[mikeymike4g63]

@skb0rzn Have no solution to the problem, then detract from others' achievements. You are quite the noble gentleman.

[skb0rzn]

@mikeymike4g63 actually I this is awesome and I was not taking away from what they did here, but just asked a simple question of why. I thumbs up'd and sent off for others to check out. Thanks for caring though, I didn't mean to detract.

[Alexthekiller10]

"Marty, go to 88mph !" xDDDD

[animes25]

great a grasscutter with no blades an a skateboard like platform, and the guy dont even push the accelerator

[asinginglamp]

do you know what camera this was shot with?

[1xtra299]

wow thats so cool, looks like an awesome way to die.

[mtbpedalhead]

I'll donate £50 to charity if someone nails a kickflip on that puppy

[RuneScapeRocksMySock]

The amount of people who just want that beastly engine in their car :(...

[technicaltom1]

@RuneScapeRocksMySock

[rickysio]

Goes from naught to sixty in? ;)

[Samqdf]

looks like they are indrectly driving the wheel(s) with a hydraulic motor, this would let them control it finely and adjust how much power gets put down as well as the speed. I saw ignore this thing check out the awesome buggy in the background.

[og882001]

its not scateboard already, they should call it motorboard or something, if its scateboard, scateboard lost its true meaning

[DasFoolCan]

That is sick!

[keypadable]

Whatever. Let's see him kick-flip it. Then I'll be impressed!

[vampost]

make wheelchair with jetpack

[modderfreak]

I've seen many stupid vehicles, but at least they were funny. this one ain't..

[SmallTownLee]

It should obviously be giving to Johnny Knoxville and SteveO. Anyone's guess is as good as mine as to why they're handing it to Tony Hawk.

[prettylittleditty89]

@SmallTownLee - dunno... Maybe Hawk has tallent when it comes to... uh... skating? as opposed to Johnny and SteveO lack of any tallent??? Maybe?

[SmallTownLee]

@prettylittleditty89 When you're using a 600 + hp "skateboard" you're not looking for a talented skater, you're looking for an idiot who's got the balls to use it.

[Damag381]

Haltech all the way baby! there are quite a few tuners that are finding you get more power, and more reliabilty with them straight away with the same map!

[fjbutch]

Bloody bewdy,,,, looking forward to the next clip guys ...

[heeeeeeeyyyyyyyyy]

heck yea!! you can out that on my christmas list!

[shako5555]

I can now sadly say that a skateboard holds more power than my car :(

[buccavich]

Here's a question somebody forgot to ask, how would you steer the thing?

[BUFFBOYM3]

Stupid Aussies

[MrJai800]

Fuuuuck how fast would that go !!! haha V8 supercars fords and holdens vs V8 powered skateboard!

[multikill2000]

@t0nes08 ITS OVER 9000!

[xecron]

@Juganaughty damn, you're right, it should be free, cheers dude

[OpticalCow]

DO A BACKFLIP!

[Gleese01]

wow 5 km/h? no way!

[DarkFlaze]

is this a practical joke are is tony really going to ride this?

[TheLuke2reeve]

What kind of set up do you have to get the power to the wheels. it would have to be a custom gear box. yeah?

[BVW16]

imagine what nitro circus would do with this

[hchikky]

41 people are bloody unaustralian.

[hazza3]

Pfft, NZ already made the Warthog!!! :p. anyway, this looks awesome. A V8 Skateboard? Epic!

[blownhemi]

When it fired up I just started laughing. that's awesome.

[TheLuke2reeve]

@blownhemi hahaha how good was it and oi blown hemi hows it going

[ilikesexisnice]

Gota see this

[yeolstrat]

Only in Australia!

[robccrs]

go away with your negative comments its about fun and mayhem something you probably never experience because you dont look past the end of your own very small cock

[Damag381]

Pity it's running a Motec! :/
