Shasta Highway Bomb // Raw Run

- Morgan Owens breaking the speed limit down an open highway, extremely deep in the mountains of Northern California.
During the 2018 Mt. Shasta Spliff N Wesson, which Morgan hosted, we actually raced a section of this road. After the outlaw event was over, I offered to film Morgan down the entire highway. Of course he sent it. Actually, the first time he ever even stood on that skateboard, he just pushed off down the hill for this run like no big deal. Also for the record, the run gets more intense about halfway through, and there is some sketchy moments along the way...
Skater: Morgan Owens

This run was originally in a small, and cut video. But I have decided to drop the full 9 minute run now. Link here:

BEAUTIFUL! what a memory you just made for yourself. Thanks for sharing. Awesome man, just Awesome...
I grew up near that mountain, and I'm familiar with this road. Very cool to see
You're lucky. What I wouldn't give to just have a day out driving on that road listening to all my favorite Rascal Flatts tracks. Then when I develop a feel for the road, I can try what my bro on the board be doing. Looks like fun. Dangerous I admit but fun nonetheless.
The only thing better would be to have a speed counter
I totally agree with having a speedometer. Also the percentage of grade and elevation difference from start to end. Seeing some of those stats would make these videos that much more interesting.
We don’t do that here
Yes.
Could be a distraction ,flash up every now and again might be cool.
Imagine some innocent ass turtle or pebble ruining your life.
wow. turtles never even occurred to me
Mario Kart intesifies
@@Lucas-ck1po LMBAO
Would be a dope ass video game for sure ..
Even in video games you fall at this speed.
Cali roads are horrible. You’re a legend for doing this here.
This is the gnarliest s*!t I've seen in a while! This guy is my hero🤟🙌
@DB Cooper's MoneyBags I love the one in Columbia
This is amazing on so many levels. Nads of steel.
This sport deserves more recognition. It's thrilling to watch. I'd like to see it included at the X Games. You could have a time trial format and races. It would make for spectacular viewing.
omg, put a camera on the car's speedometer ffs. small picture in picture in a corner so we can see how fast these nutcases are going 😎👍
That was a beautiful run
That mountain side is full of cannabis growers.
Cool if ya fall off ya can grab a baggie off some hippy haha cheap way
BEST DAMN CANNABIS IN THE WORLD!! 🍁😁🤙
And awesome people.
@@Canadian_Craftsman export it my friend send samples to the people hahaha cool that you can play and smoke
I want some
I need a video like this, every daay! So cool
Thats gnarly!! Earned my sub🤘🏼 Stay safe!
Nothing like the faint sound of pebbles bouncing to the side of the road where they belong.
So awesome!
Awesome run dudes really fun to watch, thanks for sharing! 😎😎😎🥳🥳
Comment might be a little late but they need to try this for an Olympic sport......just an idea for the future maybe
Good raw , best raw freedom raw !
Nice !!!
Legs Out Of Steel ... Nice Run !
Glad I found this channel fucking rad shit
Can I ask a couple of dumb questions, besides this one?
- Do these guys keep their trucks tight or loose? I've longboard hills for a long time now (Nowhere near what these guys do though - I tend to go around 25-35 and I've never done a powerslide in my life), so I consider myself at least somewhat experienced, and the only consistent thing I've found with hills is if you go straight for too long you get speed wobbles, so I'm curious how these guys avoid that. I have to assume it's linked to truck tight/loose-ness.
- At this speed, are pebbles not a factor? I've never seen anyone in these videos get launched, so I have to assume they just blast tiny rocks and stuff out of their way if they hit them. Is that accurate?
Hello!! First off yes they do tighten their trucks to reduce speed wobbles/ increase stability. Largely though, the stability comes with their experience in riding (leaning forward, balance, weight distribution, and confidence) and more importantly the bushings used on their trucks. Harder barrel (venom) bushings are used in the back more specifically (boardside) to reduce chances of speed wobbles. Other factors take into place like a stiff board, low degree trucks, length of trucks, and wheel base. But in general all that can be accounted for with bushings and of course the tightening of the trucks. Secondly no, pebbles are not a big deal. It seems like the wheels hes using are the same i use and they are 72mm in diameter. Essentially unless it’s a big rock... he’s not gonna get launched because the wheels are beefy and made to handle those speeds. Of course they check the quality of the road before bombing to be safe.
Front trucks : loose ( so you can turn)
Back trucks : tight ( for stability!)
The riders weight is almost all on the front of his board. When he's tucking he is leaning forward putting even more weight to the front. His legs are incredibly strong which add stability. This is similar to cars traveling on a road.. the front wheels turn the back wheels do not. And most of the weight ( the engine) is in the front of the vehicle. You can worry about your bushing color ( or nah), everyone is different it's all preference. But most important is that the shape of your bushing ..
Barrel bushing: stable
Cone bushing: reactive and turn-y. ( Not stable)
Definitely depends on the trucks you ride.
I have gone 85kph with my valkyries 160/45/30 with loose bushings, I recommend only tightening them to the point you have no lateral slop when turning trucks with your hands.
Get some gloves and learn to slide asap! Search coleman slide and start there. You have absolutely no experience skating downhill if you don't know how slide and stop.
You're a legend 👊🏻🤘🍺🇺🇸🛹🍀
All your videos are insane. Jeezus
Morgan Owens my hero!
The evolution of man real time!
Could you imagine if you did this everyday in your way to work
im a longboarder but i cannot comprehend how people can do this, i feel like i would die trying this, looks so unstable. sick video
Everyone starts slow. Practice makes perfect. Treat slow speed like high speed and someday you'll treat high speed like slow speed. Once you become proficient at sliding both directions.. things get a lot easier and safer.
You're crazy !!! and us with you !!
Awesome ride mate. Cheers
It's so good 👍
It would be Cool if you had a small MPH (miles per hour) indicator on the bottom of the screen to show how fast he's going.
freaking fast!!!
Thats insane!
Such a long run. And no guard rails, gnarly
I would rather skate with no guard rails and so would he. guard rails are a death sentence if you slide into one doing 50 mph. So is going over a cliff, but guard rails are bad news for downhill skaters/
@@davidprice7814 yeah I gotchu, I ride downhill too but I’d rather hit a rail than fly off a cliff
If you got the guts, that is a pretty perfect hill. Good job staying in your lane when it counts...
Fight THE POWER!
Absolutely cooking!
Roast beef slide at 3:12.
Stalefish actually
Good Job! Fast
Downhill longboarding deserves to be in the olympics.
I like when he pushes off to start like you need to gain anymore speed , people are great
how it was filmed on camera?very interesting video,thank you.
Soooooooo rad. Get some !
How do you deal with rocks, and wheel bite , super soft wheels? And the paint lines?!
pebbles don't matter
wheel bite doesn't happen when you know your gear
paint lines dont matter
@@Robo0595
Yes! That's the awnser I wanted to hear !
(NOT the one my wife wanted to hear)
Board setup please? Inform us :)
Watch this with Anthrax full bore as soundtrack
Habe mir gerade eingeschissen 🤯
Insanity or genius 👍
Aksinya bner2 gila bnget bro,, keren wlaupn extrem
Curious, why don't you guys wear protective leathers, just in case? Thanks, I love watching these videos, I miss California very much.
they do when they race
Abstrict point is if your going 75 plus MPH you should probably be wearing protective gear because if you were to fly off and not be wearing any protective gear you’d be screwed. If I’m going to bomb a hill I always wear protection.
@@5lrhythms803 i respect that but its also the choice of the rider i think he propably knows all the above about flyng off at 75mph lol
Abstrict agreed I dunno I guess I just see things differently. I like to be safer then sorry.
@@5lrhythms803 its safer that way for suuure haha
man hopefully i could skate like that...
Very good content. Great channel. I feel free watching this.
No fear of death seriously 👍
nice
could've gone faster if you didnt have balls of steel
your sooo obsessed with the doods balls bro lol
Damn.
steeeezzeeeee!
what wheels are you using ?? powell ??
Powell!!
@@spud4k what kind of trucks?
Have you gone to the famous Pikes Peak yet..? They race "up" to the top! How about doing a race "down"...!? Keep up the exciting videos! God Bless †
They used to race there regularly. I don't think they're doing that venue anymore though unfortunately. Search "pikes peak skateboard"
👏
How would someone reccomend getting into bombing hills like this. Obviously you can't start on roads like this. Where do you go? How do you practice, what gear do you use?
Yo! Check out Muirskate.com, do some research on best board/gear to get. Get some slide gloves, an s1 helmet, and go to a mellow hill. Something open, straight, not too steep, and you can hike and practice slides. Once you get the hang of sliding, push it faster and faster, and then harder and harder hills. Once you get the hang every time then you continue. But patience is key and starting from the ground up is also key. Eventually roads like this, feel like nothing at all. Just another day skateboarding :)
@linked media , do you pre-check the roads for cracks?
Really depends. This one we’ve skated a lot
Got dam
💯🔥😁🤙
What deck and hardware is he using?
YOOOOOO......FUCKING ...LOCOOOOO .....MATE! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹🔥🔥🔥🔥
I used to get speed wobbles and eat it just going down my driveway. Is there some method for stopping speed wobbles?
Tighten your rear truck more than the front. Plus the long wheelbase and wide trucks of a longboard are way more stable.
Harder bushings... use barrels(harder on rear trucks/ boardside), tighter trucks, stiff board, the rest is really up to you controlling and leaning forward
Practice. Speed wobbles are 90% rider error.
What is the size of the wheels?
RAD
oh fuck ya, beautiful area
What board is that
next up pikes peak right?
Health insurance revoked
How many serious injuries does one have on average before getting good enough to do an entire run without a severe thrashing??
Usually none, just a lot of road rash! ;)
One road reflector.........and it's over 🛹
committed to a healthy chunk of that hill....life is killer when you've been punching so long ya gotta stop cause your legs hurt....there is nothing better than bombing hills
Fuckiiiinnnggggg LOCOOOO ....MATE¡.....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🛹🌮🛹🛹🛹🌮🛹🛹🌮🛹🛹🛹🌮🛹🛹🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽😈😈😈😈
Wich Board is it???
I would need brown trousers to do this !
7:10 the amount of times your toeside was putting you in the left, had me really scared at this moment you were about to cross right into that car
Gotta really hold on when it counts haha
Anyone else's legs tired from watching this? Sheesh.
boss
Dude gotta hit the weights!!
mad cheese
everyone talking about the guy bombing down the hill but what about the cameraman running at incredible speeds chasing after the boarder
Are you joking?
@@spud4k perhaps
А где спидометр?
Krutibrauktnokalnainasvietas😉🫢🫢🤗.
Que extremo jajaja
Used to live down there, great run there's some great roads a little NE of there in a shit hole called tule lake
What’s the speed?
What was his top speed?
Yes
So glad the cops didn't pull him over for speeding and not wearing a seat belt👹
The man doesn't need a seat belt, he needs a belt
1:11 😬🥺😧😦😮😯😲😃🤩🤯
Aloha Brasil
Imagine a deer crossing 👋
I thought the same thing lol
I going to buy a board and do it myself
Make sure you get the correct equipment and train before you go down a hill like this!! You need to start small and work your way up. Always be comfortable at the speed you are going at, and be able to slide and control your speed when you need to slow down and stop. Get a board and start riding! Just please do it safely 🖤
Yeah man, I gotta agree with the previous reply. Until you can slide to a stop, and slide to slow down, you have no business going any faster than you can run. A hill like this would make you wobble out at half the speed he is going. I've got 20+ longboards with half being able to go these speeds. But it's been years since I've hit a hill like this. Turns out falling at 50+ MPH hurts.......A LOT.

7:13 !!!
Alex Dujour that was close!
it would be cool to have a spedometer shown so we can know the speed !
We don’t want to snitch on ourselves
7:14
The camera is soooo close at times. Sweaty
What if you fall over there
