@poetjester On the m5 yeah.. I sniff bullshit.. If it was on the M5 it would atleast be a speed camera set up for 55/50 MPH but most speed cameras on the motorway are now average speed ones so unless you can do 60+ for a good 3 miles then you are chatting shit.
My local police force allow me to skate on the roads as long as I have lights and reflective gear on. They told me I have the same rights as a cyclist, since then I have been stopped once and the very polite officer listened to my side of the story, accepted my apologies for my noob friend who was on the wrong side of the road and let us get on with it. Educating people, particularly authority figures, is the key to acceptance and understanding of those of us with a 'deathwish'
Wooow a piece of wood with 4 small wheels HAHAHAHA for one those are landyachtz boards which are one of the top longboards made and are very stable at high speed(i own one) these boards are meant to do this.I like how they didnt say these guys were pro skaters and have been doing this all over the world and for years and striker has gone faster barefooted before and you stop by air braking,speed checks,sliding the board(BEST and FASTEST way) to a reduce speed or complete stop
God damn news reporters! 'Only way to stop is the know your route, or go up hill' That just makes the sport sound bad! There are many ways to stop, get your facts right news stations
just for the record longboarders slide their boards sideways to slow down and stop. these guys are also professonals and have gone much faster before.
Number 3: Despite the simplicity in our mode of transport, I must admit, we do have more common sense than the average drunk driver or motorcyclist.
Number 4: How to stop; Either foot brake, carve, slide, extend arms out to create a 'parachute' technique, or wait until you come across a flat or an up hill.
Why do people always think that people who are into action sports have a deadwish? I don't have a dead wish. Do you guys here have a dead wish? I didn't think so. An adrenaline rush makes me feel alive. ;-)
What they fail to include is that these guys are professionals who are in absolute control all the time. Striker not wearing shoes isn't the best idea, but these guys can stop faster than a bicycle if needed.
@caddywaumpus276 faster than a bicycle, no they cant, the only ways to stop are either footbraking (impossible for the barefooted one) or carving which is only slightly more effective than simply going untill you eventually slow down
@asaw1994 Your EXTENSIVE longboarding experience, riding down small piss-ant sized hills with tarps as your only form of brakes, makes you an expert, eh? You clearly don't know what you're talking about. Learn to skate and get back to me.
Honestly what's the difference between the guys wearing protection and someone on a motorcycle with the same protective gear? If they both crash, the same thing happens.
I'm a truck driver who descents that hill three times a week at maximum weights and these boys looked more in control than some cars I've seen. Watch him close and you'll see the cameraman appears to have the ability to slow or speed up at will and looks like he ran over a rumble line which never affected the board at all. Credit where its due. the original clip is great.
@No1Pinetree Thank you for noticing, i simply stood up and let wind resistance drop my speed down to about 80k, then back in the tuck and up to speed again, and as you can see i shoulder check and signal as well.
@TheTareesa I bet you just dont have the balls to do this.Dh longboardn is the funnest action sport.These guys are pros and have done waaaay harder terrains.They had complete control and new reporters are always making things seem much worse then they really are with evrything they talk about
Today's popular response: "Holy cow, look at them go! Screw the cops, ha ha!"
Popular response after one of those guys plows into the side of a garbage truck: "Fucking idiots, what kind of person even thinks of doing something like that! Ban the activity, burn the bodies and let's be mad until we find a video of a yawning kitten!"

How is this any different to falling off a motorbike at the same speed? Hell, it's probably safer, no heavy bike to crash on top of you.
