[FreshAsphalt]

whered you get that gps???

[emgeemann]

@FreshAsphalt My mom won it in a raffle, but you can get them fairly cheap on sites like Amazon. It's a basic Garmin e-Trex.

43 MPH on a Dervish?....You are either a badass or freaking insane. I'd say both....!! Haha awesome man!.....But you might wanna invest in something a little bit different for DH O_o

[emgeemann]

@OrionAlexander1 Haha maybe a little bit of both! I have a DH board, but I still enjoy downhilling on the Dervish from time to time for the fun of it :D

[emgeemann]

@UberLifeTroll I'm sorry, are you talking to me? On the way back, there's an alternate route that starts with a nice fast hill, then has a long flat push section, slowly turning into a climb then a big hill to walk up. Both routes involve walking up some hills in order to have downhill to skate... a small price to pay, I'd say.

[emgeemann]

@TheTraceurBoy Maybe I am!

song???????

[AdrianR74]

where do you get one of those speedometers?? I want one

[TheMahigetFamily]

By the looks of it, you're going pretty fast. You've got some skill to push a flexy board like a dervish that fast man. You should get on a stiffer more DH oriented deck and go even faster!

Badass video, I do this shit on my dervish all the time. I think its all mental just be confident and you wont fall.

@LongboardAllDaTime plus whitch is better for hills

[hazzabonga]

thankyou @LongboardAllDaTime and also now i cant decide between a tan tien and a dervish!, please tell me what is better for cruising!

[LongboardAllDaTime]

@hazzabonga flex2 and some o tangs, what are you planning to do with it?

DH 80a

Freerideing 83a

Sliding 86a

Abec 11 70 flashbacks are great for DH

getr some Paris 180's

Go check out some other boards, the LongBoardLarry DK Penuin in my opinion is way better than the loaded boards, loaded boards are not the most "versitle" check out KebbeK and Landyachtz

[hazzabonga]
