Mt. Lemmon Downhill

[thehedo222]

haha i live on the street that the turned on!

[TonyGT37]

haha i'm going up to mt. lemmon for a couple days, thought it would be cool to skate there, but after seeing this...NOPE. LOL main reason being is that i don't have a helmet or suit :P

[ShitSketchy]

Hey, I'm 16 and live in Rita Ranch, a few miles away from Mt. Lemmon. I dream of doing what your guys are doing in this video. I've been longboarding for a year now, and one day i will be bombing Mt. Lemmon.

[slizer46]

Wow.. That truly is amazing. I am a kindof new at longbaorder looking for tips from people like you.. anything will hope and i live in real close to Mt. Lemmon so i can wake up go outside and see what im doing in the future but that bridge is pretty far away.

[ballin101yea]

this is awesome!!!!! i drove up it last summer, what kinda speed are you guys hitting???

[xcookiemonsterstudio]

i live here and this montain is like a hour drive to get half  way....

[thatsoccerfan1]

Live right by here. Just need some leathers so I can ride it.

[outlawkush]

Awesome video man. I recreational longboarder. That takes some guts man. Keep it up guys.

[sergiodanielvera]

man this takes guts

[anarchyamp]

wow what an incredible video!

[sk8n0mad]

imagine if u woulda hit a pebble.

[Awesomo12000]

@sk8n0mad going fast like that it does nothing, when i hit pebbles or small rocks they shoot like cannon infornt of you

[Tippet76]

If you ride a bike down that mountain and don't pedal you get up to about 50 mph and are passing cars...

[croissantanyone]

Darwinism at work.

[sk860mph]

usually i wouldn't dignify a comment like yours with a response. driving a car is pretty dangerous to, darwinism at work there to huh?

and i would ask you be a little more respectful because as you saw in the credits we dedicated this video to my friend suffered a horrible accident skating and is now paralyzed from the waist down. and don't give me the Darwinism thing, he was a experienced rider who rode that hill alot and had all the proper safety gear. just a freak accident.

[alexanderblake]

@sk860mph I'm pretty sure what you're doing here is more dangerous than driving a car...

[croissantanyone]

@sk860mph "we dedicated this video to my friend suffered a horrible accident skating and is now paralyzed from the waist down."

And you will be responsible for the next person who injures himself after watching your "dedication".

[sk860mph]

@croissantanyone

1 second ago

how the fuck will i be responsible if other people skate that road? people can do whatever they want. if this video were about cyclists, would you still be making rude, ignorant comments? what do you do for fun? sit in front of a computer all day? whats life without a little risk? i am a professional downhill skater, skateboarding is my job and i travel the world doing it. i can truely say i love my life and what i do. so really you can SUCK IT.

[croissantanyone]

@sk860mph So much anger for someone so happy...

[sk860mph]

@croissantanyone

i only get angry when people make ignorant, close minded statements about things they don't know. and you did'nt answer any of my questions......

[SoldierSide36]

@croissantanyone

get a life asshole no one asked you to watch the video, you looked it up and now you're hating on it? fuck off

[themichaelnuckles]

@croissantanyone your an asshole

[croissantanyone]

@themichaelnuckles Eat a dick.

[themichaelnuckles]

@croissantanyone your mommas dick?

[robbversion1]

@croissantanyone you're right! i just watched the video and i fell off my chair! Dangerous video to be watching!

[croissantanyone]

@robbversion1 Did your boyfriend fall off your lap?

[robbversion1]

@croissantanyone He sure did! but he says dont wait up for him, he'll be home in a little bit

[jlangevin65]

@croissantanyone You're probably a fat-ass who sits at his computer all day while his arteries clog. Active people will inherit the Earth.

[croissantanyone]

@jlangevin65 No the wives of the fit will inhrit life insurance policies.

Recklessness is not a virtue.

[jlangevin65]

@croissantanyone Participating in sports isn't recklessness; you're a sorry excuse for a human being.

[IBEINTHESEA]

@croissantanyone

And without taking any risks you will forever be sitting at your desk on youtube living vicariously through other peoples videos of them having the time of their lives.

[thechamp6385]

how long did that take u

[LemmonDC]

Looks like it's pretty hilly around there,

David C. LEMMON

[RobertMuldooJP]

Hmm...pretty brave of you to slap that Prickly Pear with a glove on...I think you should try that with a Cholla without a glove...and see what happens.

[WeAreGroundedAgain]

are you in this video laddy?

[SirToppimHat]

such a long road, my legs hurt thinking about it

[wutangclaninthefront]

This Catalina Highway is gnar I would never even think about bombing the whole thing. cyclists ride down going 40mph all the time.

[watchtforthefullmoon]

uhhh whats the name of this song?

[wutangclaninthefront]

this song is a remix of Sister Nancy - Bam Bam. but i dont know who did the remix

[DxmbFxck]

@watchforthefullmoon, 3:40

[WhereIsNumNum]

lol theres like one topmount and like 7 evo's

[PBbookworm]

I'd want my evo too!  22 miles and my legs would be jello!

[undreadSP]

great idea and perfect soundtrack, thanks!

[chrismarshall1950]

anyone who lives in tucson would understand how scary this would be

[sumi4chan]

Hahah indeed

[chrismarshall1950]

do you live in tucson too?

[sumi4chan]

Born and raised, but I just moved to Cali in july. I miss home D:

[RedRanger525]

I wouldn't recommend skating ANYTHING unless you can stop on it. This hill is fast too, and even a wide turn can feel "sketch" when you're going fast.

[TakeLife2TheExtreme]

Its not a hill is a freaking mountain...you go from 9000ft to 2000ft

[cheetah894]

There are some pretty sharp hairpin turns.

[AZballa4]

There are some sharp turns

[reap62]

are there any like crazy sharp turns or is it mostly straight the whole time? because this mountain looks like a lot of fun and i might do it but im not too crazy about sliding and stuff so i dont like sharp turns

[sumi4chan]

Its mostly sharp turns and cliff edges so its risky but fun as fuck :] Haha ive only driven on that road though.

[reap62]

well i might get some people together and try it sometime

[thegrillmasternahhwh]

id love to do that but there aint no mountians in brooklyn.

[Asuperman420]

this song is called Bam Bam by sister nancy

[greentofu101]

Song name?

[seanazdugan]

best place to ride in all az. I use to hitch hike from the bottom to mid way little past prison camp and cruise...15 min plus run over and over again.

[TheWaterPoloBeast]

how do u stop lol

[jendoytoy]

i guess you don't until your down the mountain

[erik11217]

what board is the guy with the red and black suit rdidng?

the 1 with clear griip and reddish pink wheels

[Joebear524]

Daggers Rule!

[Outofthecloset94]

I've seen some junior slalom races, but nothing pro, and definitely nothing speedboarding.

[IORIOspreadtehSHRED]

ya there is speedboarding

[Lostaholic333]

do you know if there is an LB event held in AZ

[IORIOspreadtehSHRED]

yes there just was one on sycamore creek. Lots of riders, 20 + . AZ getting some races coming up, check it out! Keep in touch..

Flagstaff, AZ Mongol Maniacs

[MustardMan67]

Incredible. I've gone to the top of that mountain, but it takes big cajones to bomb down that.

[Outofthecloset94]

I rode it a week ago and it was fine, but when I went up yesterday, they now have three little groups of five mini speedbumps right before windy point and they caused me to crash into a wall at thirty mph. I have a broken arm, my demonseed, is in two pieces, and now I have to splurge 300 bucks to get a new board

[VideoRater7]

Ya you guys are pretty good. My sister goes to U of A and told me she knew you guys. Well awesome vid.

[jkorte666]

ive been wanting to do this but i am kinda sketching out cause i heard if cops catch you they arrest you..

idk

but it looks worth the risk!

[Piranha8661]

i hope not! can anyone verify this?

[jkorte666]

my friend went just like a couple weeks a go and he was fine. you just have to go early.

[garagebomber]

Bill runson's a giant.

[Dooshganoosh]

I love this video, got me stoked on DH. How did you avoid the rangers?

[Tony1130]

how are those godess wheels?

[sk860mph]

the old ones with the gray 'than are ok...the new yellow race formula ones are SIC

[texDH]

Bad ass video. What kind of camera are you using?

[v4Vanquish]

2:46 that guy is crazy. You don't do that shit when you are going 30+ mph

[sk860mph]

well, he did....its not that hard

[herecumsthesound]

is that one guy riding chargers?

[Dooshganoosh]

no, this was before chargers

[grindwalker]

I climbed and descended this mountain on a road bike. AMAZING!! I'd kill to go back and skate it downhill.

[flsguru]

epic stuff! hey what song is this?

[jjr62907]

pretty neat but Tucson still sucks and your all Desert Dwellers!

[skabaconska]

THATS SCARY SHIT

[rac3445]

Got me in the mood to try it

[paintbasstard]

Do a kickflip! LOL Just kidding. ;) I just ordered my leathers from Timeship, should be comming any day now. Jesus that looks like a gnarly road. I want to do buttboard at Maryhill soooo bad......but my mom won't let me.

[marcusabq56]

dude awesome video i am going there this summer and am going to shred that with my friend and damn those corners look fun

[nathankmart]

damn thats fuckin gnarly ass shit right dur

[johnsonerson]

This is way cool. A bit scary, but I definitely need to find this place and give it a try.

[nathankmart]

you dont know where mt lemmon is? yer retarded

[ryguy7690]

it is an INSANE hill. i'm from tucson and i drive up it about once a year and i didnt think it was possible to longboard. these guys are crazy!

[07reddeersteelers33]

wats this song i heard it in ea skate i need to find out????

[1973slimshady1973]

nice wish i waould have seen you guys up there

[MJKam11]

I visited Mount Lemon twice, how do you guys come to stops (i'm guessing you slid), and did you have much trouble with traffic? b/c I know that there is plenty of traffic on that road sometimes, I did go during tourism season though (Late august).

[kamperkitjay]

Dude I have been trying to find that song and download it!!! I was curious if you know where i can get it??? Its big beat bam by stretch armstrong right?? remix of sister nancies bam bam!!!??? I need that song for the ole ipod!!! hook me up!!............Thanks J,,, Oh sweet vid !!

[katiefreckles]

in the end when its says dedicated to mike barkley his my cousin and he fell off the railing down the mountain and broke his back he`s in a wheelchair now and my baby cousin calls him bike

[sabinovista]

That's cool. I hope he's paralyzed for life.

[Narzocchi]

nice, what do you do when you wanna slow down?

[haskellfilmz]

F..in great video!

[TakeLife2TheExtreme]

I have been up mt lemmon many times (live in Tucson)...I dont do any of this sort of stuff (kind of wish i did) but on that street/ highway there looks like there is little room for mistake...there are parts where the only thing between you and a hundred foot cliff is that guard rail on the side of the road...:-)

[IcemanVR6]

I like that Brazilian tuck. I use it for the longer runs. The American/European tuck gets tiring really fast. He seems to be about as aerodynamic as the rest of you. What's the grade for that run?

[wsoxman]

I lived on top of Mt Lemmon. 1966-69 684th Air Force Radar Site. Most people don't really get to the top. The ski lodge is the highest for the public. Uv. of Arizona has the property now. Great memories and a great place to visit.

Id like to see these guys go down that mountain when the road wasn't so wide and smooth. ha

[munkae]

we would do it... and make it look good.

we ride retreat regularly if you are familiar with that road

[KavaKavai]

The ski lodge isnt the higest place, if you go past it, there's a dirt road that goes higher :D we took a PT Cruiser up there and tried to ramp it on stuff. hah

[lanefd1]

Thats sick, I live near the base and had no clue this is going on. When do you skate so we can watch?

[Gajosan]

Pssh sucks for you guys i live in oro vally , Tucson and me and a freind just got our new DH race's Mt lemmmon HERE I COME! (ill post a vid of it later)

[leighgriffiths]

im guessing ur Evo fans

[sk860mph]

alot of the AZ guys like Evo's but ride drop-throughs to. i ride a madrid top-mount, don't really like a evo to much.

[wshields19]

So. Awesome. Definitely fast, but it so long, and looks of pretty consistent smoothness. I'm almost thinking of driving the 800 miles. Damnit.

[bagelbum111]

fantastic video

this hill looks amazing

thumbs up!

[deadkennedys909]

Remix or sister nancy?

Sick video!

[zumeex]

what is the difficulty level of lemmon? i'm just starting speedboarding and i am comfortable around 30, don't really have my hairpins down though? what do you guys think?

[sk860mph]

i've never skated mt. lemmon and i've never seen you skate but lemmon is a advanced hill, and if you've never gone over 30 i would say no don't skate it.

and ya, the song is sister nancy.

[sk860mph]

i've been told it takes 45 minutes to skate the whole thing.

[TrixSkier]

What kind of DH board does the guy with the blue helmet and red speed suit have?

[sk860mph]

Pocket Pistols drop-though Hill-Killer

[handlebarhammer]

I got the chills watching this. Awesome.

[dasrobs]

holy shiaaaaat!

[BallpointPens]

looks fun, but i would hate to be the cameraman who fell without gloves. anyways, awesome hill... i think i might have to take a roadtrip down to arizona some time

[handlebarhammer]

yeah, me too.

[RockyAnderson]

RAD! Looks like heaps of DH fun.

[plisb]

zoomg :D

love this

[milesgehm]

How is Mike healing? What sort of injuries?

[BakerKrew137]

dude do u now bad that would have to hurt if u hit a rock or just fell

[clintXD]

dude what if u fell on a cactus? ouch that would suck so bad

[BakerKrew137]

haha dude that would suck so bad

[Timontheboard]

I am moving to America, just for that run

[woohoobaloogapoo]

looks sweet :D

[shesAhugeBITCH510]

That is the coolest hill that i've seen.
