    Uphill Eskate Race - Downhill Freeride
    I made the trip out to California to run in the uphill eskate race at Bakersfield. Congrats to Brandon, Mario, and Ryan. Huge shoutout to Moe for pioneering this sport and continuing to advance it.

    I just bought the Nazare last week used. I really love the hell out of it ! Clearly yours is not stock right? How did you make the board that fast? Mines really fast but i don't think it would do this.

  • @mkhavok7370

    I'm by no means a crazy speed demon but I love the thrill! Very impressed you kept up with top guys while maintaining your own stance from the rest. Insane level of balance control. And also how well your LaCroix kept up with those stooge boards. Also glad that dude walked away. Btw did you let off towards the end of the first race?

    • @wiggpickle
      @wiggpickle  Před 2 lety +6

      Thank you. Yeah, riding a Lacroix is significantly different than a Stooge board in all aspects. Those boards make roughly twice the power of my board, hence their acceleration. Their top speed was electronically limited in this race to low 40's. I didn't let off. What happened was my board started thermal throttling, reducing the current to save the electronics from overheating.

    • @tommynguyen8620
      @tommynguyen8620 Před 2 lety +1

      @@wiggpickle seems like the main limit you're running into is thermal, have you considered using a larger heatsink or perhaps adding a large thermal mass onto the heatsink and pre-cooling it before races to give you a bit more time before you hit that limit?

    • @wiggpickle
      @wiggpickle  Před 2 lety +3

      Exactly the issue. This board is made of old tech (12s, Sanyo 20700b cells, focbox) so I don't plan on doing much more to it. The new SS boards (18s, p42 cells, Stormcore) control heat much better while providing more power. Check out my latest video on the SS Naz. I thermal throttled it too, but with much better results.

    • @tommynguyen8620
      @tommynguyen8620 Před 2 lety +1

      @@wiggpickle gotcha, you should totally consider adding a small heatsink or maybe even just a ram air scoop underneath to force air up against the metal heatsink plate already there - it should pretty much eliminate thermal throttling even for the roughest riding.

    That takes some balls 🤘🏻

    • @wiggpickle
      @wiggpickle  Před 2 lety +3

      It has more to do with my board having rear steering. Those race boards have nearly no rear steering so rear speed wobbles don't exist for them, allowing them to comfortably tuck. I need to use my legs as absorbers in the instance of speed wobbles.

    • @JamiePineappleWyatt
      @JamiePineappleWyatt Před 2 lety +1

      @@wiggpickle I always found it more stable on basic longboards to go speed stance even with a loose rear truck but having power come from those wheels is totally different.
