      If you don’t mind, what one did you start first? I’ve never had the chance to really try longboards at all. Don’t even know how they feel on flat just cruising. I have been a street skateboarder for about 14 years now but bombing hills has always been possibly my favorite thing to do. The last two years I’ve been hitting the hills on a penny board! I don’t know what it is but it carves nice and kinda feels like your not even on anything because it’s so light. I love it but I feel like a longboard will feel extremely heavy and awkward to me. Oh, I also noticed that the penny is noticeably more stable than I recall my street decks ever being. I figured it would be worse than street setup. I got up to 30-35mph on the penny before wobbling and definitely don’t get near that on my normal setup. Do the softer wider wheels really give that much stability? I know longboard trucks are a bit different but I figured those tiny penny trucks would wobble more compare to my 8” street trucks.

    It’s interesting to see a downhill video made for non-downhill skaters. At first I was confused by the dark eerie music during the montage at 9:00 . The music choice thematically did not hit the feeling I’d normally get from that kind of video. Then the realization came: the music choice actually fits perfectly. This is how a properly sane person feels watching a downhill skater.

    Noiiice! Perfect timing on the vid. I'm from the SF Bay Area but currently up in the PNW. I'm a bit older now and getting back into trying to go faster down the hills on longboards(and film it with the GoPro) I used to live at the bottom of the "9th Avenue run" in SF so I did have pretty decent stand up slides. I do kind of need to re-learn stand up and glove down laid out slides on longboards though. Anyway, rolling down the hills or carving & grinding through the Sk8parks is pretty fun, especially since the weather has finally turned nice and sunny.

Off in the back corner there's a hill with various turns, so I just gradually start further up the hill the more comfortable I feel. So far, the fastest I've gone is 29kms, which i think is 15pmh-ish? :)

    "Why would anyone do this?"
    Give it a go. Get in touch with your local longboard crew, find a street not too crowded and learn to slide... And before you know it you'll be hooked. You'll start dreaming of sliding corners when you drive, or think about which line you would take.
    The adrenalin, the sense of freedom, the sheer focus, all of this makes downhill skateboarding a unique and addictive sport. Give it a go ! The worse that could happen is scratched knees if you're just learning how to slide
