how to pump a skateboard (mainly slalom styles)

Check out some different pumps, though the basics are the same -- driving power off the rear and steering with the nose, weighting into the turn and unweighting out of each turn.

Riders- Gareth Roe, Brad Jackman, John Stryker, James Peters.

sector nine doesnt make the greatest boards... i ride original

[danbass85]

lol.. sector nine are like metallica.. you go to the store and they're on the shelf.. its easy to get a hold of but there's better shit around if you dig deep ;-)

i dont really like original but i like landyacht alot

[pavedwave]

@RythmicFlow Yeah... original hate is just as bad as original hype. They're just boards. People who actually "downhill" (true DH) actually know what kind of boards to get, and Original doesn't make DH racing boards. But that doesn't mean the Apex can't be taken "down a hill"... people just need to set up their trucks for whatever speeds they're comfortable with. One absolute truth...Noobs should not take any board with original trucks on it down a steep hill!

@KTMMotox1 pardon the late response! hope you got the fish. good deck, just change up the hardware!

@ThisIsParadoxal Don't you think making the trick easier to accomplish on the original is a good thing? That means their board is more developed. Although I really haven't tried t he apex, but I'd like to point out that when I say 'modern' I don't mean it's all around better, maybe easier to trick on, but might not last as long.

@bobbie001 Before I bash you on that comment, I really would like to know what you were doing with the longboard. In all honesty, even though original says it can downhill, it's a terrible ride.

@tybo326

Original boards arent the best either. My apex 37 actually fell apart after a couple of months. While my s9 jbay is still doing very well. Dont get caught in the original hype
