jop ihr hört schon hart schwule mukke, aber das video ist echt fett :-)

[codocodocodo1]

the longboarders were by far the best

[supersmartfood]

@codocodocodo1 theyre all longboarders

[codocodocodo1]

@supersmartfood no, half of them are scaters

[supersmartfood]

@codocodocodo1 no theyre called tech slide boards, theyre simlar to skateboards, but a little bit longer and use different wood, trucks, and wheels, but theyre still longboards, theyre all longboarders, not "scaters"

[JohnKreutter]

@supersmartfood I thought all planks of wood were skateboards? haha seriously guys

[supersmartfood]

@JohnKreutter haha hey John, its albert from LSA. Anyway, i was just explaining what a tech board was, i agree with the whole plank of wood thing, i was just saying that they're all doing the same thing, no longboarding OR skating haha.

[JelloSniper]

This makes me want to try longboarding!

[milomaguire]

@JelloSniper as if this is the video that made you won't to try longboarding

[JelloSniper]

I'm a skater so it was easy to pickup, but it's a COMPLETELY different feel. I like both!

[housecry]

Wow I thought ska was dead. Awesome.

[rangehero]

0:16 has the best slide face in the world.

[randymarsh5000]

Honestly, the guy in black right after 0:45 seconds is too raw

[candydeca8]

wow, ive never seen these kinds of slides in longboarding

[TheKornmeal]

is louis ridding a dervish?

[jake2000130]

Longboard FOR LIFE !!!

[MyWoody26]

Louis is my favorite skater, well at least one of them and he's soooo good, but if he won that just coz of that last slide, that sucks to the other skaters who I think had better tricks.

[vietbmx183]

i live near here

[longboardcreeperz]

2:44 if he didnt have a dervish he would have got that first try

[matttris]

early grabs are a thing of the past 3:12

[TheNuclearFist]

[sam22245]

What kind of board are like the first like 10 guys riding? I thought it was just your traditional skateboard but they look a bit longer.. doesnt that style of board have a name? I have/love the longboards but this stuff is intense! I'm loving it!!

[ihatebeingmongo]

@sam22245 +1 for that :D, i want to know what kind of wheels those "skateboards" have, how do they slide that long??

[icecoldblodd]

@sam22245 i think you mean the blunt shape

[Darrick25]

@sam22245 Earthwing boards like the Jailbird and other models with double kicktails

[jonnykid555]

I love Pilo as much as the next guy, but the rider at 1:52 was intense!

[s3xymoth3rfuck3r]

whats the song?

[Erniepbms]

@s3xymoth3rfuck3r ghost man by passafire. underrated reggae band, i was suprised to hear them.

[blackhoods1984]

duane peters face at the end.

[Blottfilms]

Are they skatebpoards?

[Komikon94]

I like how everybody is like "Longboard sliding is better/harder".They're completely different. That is technical sliding. The boards can go up to 36-38'' by 9.5'' wide, well into longboard size dimensions territory. Yes they are running hard wheels, but they can do shit you can never do, at least with a style like that. Technical sliding is more creative, and no it's not easier nor harder. Once you start sliding, it's harder to keep your balance, and to suck your board back from a crazy slide.

[skyking166]

@Komikon94 allow me to give my opinion, i think it's harder to break out into a slide for a soft wheel longboard, while technical sliding is harder to control because of the wheels. They are both fun, and both are hard one way or the other

[Tsibbbs]

longboard sliding is harder.

[crossbone776]

0:20 ouch! watch his knee

[numberBlongboarding]

2:30 james kelly !!!????

[LegitBoarding]

@numberBlongboarding nah



[fantiniSK8]

1:40 WTF

[corcorwilly]

I think the guy haulin ass bustin out those Steezy nose blunts among other things was robbed of this contest

[MrJiveturkey123]

It's called ghostman by passafire

[MrJiveturkey123]

Passafire Is too chill

[longboardWPG]

Bish would be sick here!

[xxSe3dyBeAsTxx]

OMG sliding on a skatbord is way to easy, try longboarding much better



[ShimmyKid]

@xxSe3dyBeAsTxx dude stfu lol

[lightningflash836]

I went there to see it with my bro

[Darknights7]

1 person didn't wear a helmet while trying to slide at home.

[dirtdude232]

[cro0zfl3xd3x]

badass song and a great contest

[WTDproductions10]

3:12 eh! he did it!

[ballhogrod]

[chancerbob95]

[lorenzvc]

94 likes , 0 dislikes... i thougt someone had to do it..

[UberCrankyGB]

[psychopaticrydab]

[savannahsaints]

[InfinitiM13]

Louis wins everything. I will never win. :'(

[deniedmule]

where in San Diego is was this contest?

[HoneySkateboards]

@deniedmule Pump station, Poway, CA

[infamousink]

@deniedmule off the 15. you see the same residence inn with the wendys in the background. i think its scripps poway exit.

[LongboardTyler]

That is dedication, slide'n with a messed up wrist like that! Sick shit yo!

[lauriesurferchik]

That first guy has wicked style!

[crazyred111]

if the first guy didn't crash at the end, he should have won. plus he had a wrist brace on

[lilsteve2014]

1:50 is sick as hell

[theskimdude]

what song

[aintbanned]

do you wax the wheels to powerslide like that?

[CCJG028]

yall tech sliders are like rockstars.

3:03 groupie in the red

[unfurledyoda]

most of those setups arent skateboards or longboards. the set ups they are using range from skate board decks, to slide decks, to longboard decks with either skateboard wheels or longboard wheels. try a 180 with skateboard wheels and youll understand how they do this stuff.

[billykneale]

whats the board at 2.10 PLEASE

[l4dcrazy123]

@billykneale it really looks like a Sector 9 Mainland

[evilbunny77]

hey everyone what wheels would you recomend for sliding on a longboard

[69raystarr]

@evilbunny77 oranatang 86a fat free 65mm yellow :)

[mirrororrimage]

@evilbunny77 buy a set of longboard wheels. pretty much any of em will slide just fine

[ratamacue14]

@evilbunny77 any wheel with a rounded edge and thats atleast 83a. i have the 86a orangatang durians and i love em
