[Uilliam93]

me and my friend went to london a couple weeks back, i brought my Drop Carve, he brought his Loaded Tan Tien. It was awesome >.< i seemed to notice (just my experience, and i'm just a stupid Aerican, so what do i know? :P) it seemed that people are a lot cooler about skaters in London City than they are in NYC. Dunno Why.

Awesome vid mate! I tried getting some footage recently, but I ran out of batteries part way through recording. So lost good stuff :(

You gotta run different setups for different jobs.

For carving I like to run with two barrel bushings, soft on the upper and extra soft on the lower. Using a second barrel bushing instead of using the thinner bushing for the lower position, means you can loosen your trucks and carve better. Flip the cup washer around so it doesn't cut into the extra soft bushing.

To reduce high speed wobble, you'd want hard bushings all over, probably.

Crystal palace park is good. There are videos of longboarding there

Not familiar with the north of the city but in the south you have a lot of options if you ever want to come down just to ride for a day,

but i think joining the group on facebook called "london longboards" is a good place to find posts on certain hills you might not be aware of.

i dont know if that helps at all

hey greenwich park is amazing for hills... there are alot of longboarders who hangout there too... give it a shot
