FUNKAPOTAMUS

[fuzzysquirrel42]

i really like the video one thing though. you guys should try to have longer sequences of tricks in a line. adds to the steez which is already quite impressive

[ELCUEROBAGO]

Hi nice video! I have a question, and its about the komodo flex, I want to get this board I think its perfect for me, but i dont know how flex is it the normal version...

I dont like the flex to much and im looking for the stiff version...what do you think?The normal komodo flex a lot? i see that the deck didnt flex too much in the video, but i dont know...what version did you use?

Thanks a lot...

[ceviche22]

he great video, and creative tricks, with style

but u guys should make a dancing and freestyle video, without pads, but thats just my opinion

[crosscheck1360]

you guys have zero style lol

[TeamFunkapotamus]

@crosscheck1360 we have style enough not to troll and talk trash, dingus.

[crosscheck1360]

@TeamFunkapotamus im working on a vid now ill show u guys some style asswipe

[TeamFunkapotamus]

@crosscheck1360 cut all the vids you want, dingus, you'll never have style nor class. my condolences.

[Boyforrbeer]

[Boyforrbeer]

@crosscheck1360 and you have zero life, i would like to see you do some longboarding

[thestever]

Great skating and great song. What's it called?

[TeamFunkapotamus]

@thestever think it's 311, but Dan S picked this track, I'll get back to you.

[AlphaDork11]

Hey I REALLY like the song you used for this vid, it just lends to a completely different feel than most skate vids. Its well-timed and adds sophistication to our sport! Great sk8ing too! :) Thanks for making this.

[TeamFunkapotamus]

@AlphaDork11 thanks, man, high praise, appreciate it.

[pottsgrove1988zz]

[iniallator94]

[Fluere22]

Hey guys, this is Daniel Jones. I skated with Sal and Danny in Lemont once. I gotta say I love these videos. Looking forward to seeing you guys at the Epic International Skate Fest in September!

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Hey! What's up, man? Thanks for the kind words, we're stoked on the race, can't wait till September!

[killerzombie163]

man that is one long knee slide lol 3:42 nice slides.

[TeamFunkapotamus]

haha, thanks, man, we like ta get low on the pendys ;)

[yoyo0from0hell]

is the komodo good for anything other than dancing because im thinking about getting one

[TeamFunkapotamus]

It's pretty adaptable and works well with speed, tho I wouldn't take it over 45-50mph, especially on 50* plates.

It's a little long for city cruising, but you can ask Larry for a shorter version (42-44" is a good size, depending on how wide your stance happens to be) . Danny and I use a custom double nosed 43" version of the Komodo for that purpose--it's pretty much replaced the derv for us.

[KmanHV]

LBL All the way!

[TeamFunkapotamus]

hell yeah!

[Guitar4life545]

Wow, great job guys. Do you live in Salem? If so where did you do this skating at?

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Thanks, man.

Nah, we're out of Illinois, actually, nearabouts Chicago. We're hoping to get together enough scratch/time off for a nice long trip out West, but it's gonna take a tic.

Give us a shout if you're ever around and down to skate, tho, always happy to ride.

[28thnJ]

this song does not do this awesome video justice

[TeamFunkapotamus]

haha, Dan's video, Dan's pick, tho he had some nifty jazz number up here before.

[colourfulisamango]

ha i love the 'funky' writing at the beggining. But woah nice dancing! love it!

[Boarding151]

good riding got to say hate the music sounds the the fucking river dance or some shit but sit good riding

[GoGreenLongboarding]

Great stuff guys. CLS and TF rock!

[Dimtrov]

Celtic longboarders...hehe

[T720AU]

chicago longboard society? no way...!

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Yeah, man, come skate!

[AntieFlag]

Would you recomend the Old school D? I Love dancing! even though ive only been doing it for 3 days! so far: Cross, chopping wood

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Cant go wrong with LBL. The Komodo is in the video. It rocks! but if ya want an extra foot of dancin space get the OSD. Komodo might be prefered if ya plan on incorporating a little powersliding into your dancin. My bamboo OSD is on its way and i cant wait. Either is perfect for dancin though - DanS

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Agreed, though you can still powerslide the OSD--it's just a little harder 'cause it's longer/heavier and you need a lot more space to do it, which is why the Komodo is a nice compromise w/o sacrificing too much dancing space. The nose and tail shapes on the Komodo are great, too.

[stillspinnen490]

CLS baby!!

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Yeah, brother!

[stillspinnen490]

hey do you guys do the loaded challenge series?

[TeamFunkapotamus]

We haven't done 'em yet 'cause we bought dervs 'fore we were any good, haha, but we may be doing the Series 4.

[stillspinnen490]

alright sweet man

[bmurphy95]

lol... did all three of you get dervs like you did with komodos

[TeamFunkapotamus]

Thanks to Loaded/Orangatang kindly extending their club discount to us for organizing w/ CLS, we sure did and wheels, too.
