Ben Duerr's skill is insane. The fact that he continues to do downhill skating to this level is practicality a miracle. Great video, Powell Peralta team.👍
Thank you much much! I strive to be as consistent as possible. Powell Peralta Dragons make sending it significantly easier for me. I don’t have to go nearly as fast to slide twice as far. This formula is what I needed!
This was completely and totally insane, I loved every microsecond. Brought a tear to my eye. So refreshing to see this sort of thing on a sensibly-sized double kicker. Wish I could b/s powerslide more like that. What a bloody weapon this guy is. Love the VHS intro, this video is too cool on every level.
If you want more of gnarly double kick downhill action Eric Jensen from Comet skateboards has dope videos that you can dig up. Can't believe that shit was nearly 10 years ago.
The autumn trees with their yellow and brown colours look amazing. I used to love Hill bombing down Hyde Park in Leeds most days to and from work. The ride to work was a 2-and-a-half-hill bomb into Leeds, and the return journey was even better, with an amazing skate spot at uni with perfect 200-meter quarter pipe banks being a highlight. There were also concrete benches and curved benches, and the steps, rails, drops, and curbs all on a massive uni campus down the park and finished at my house, which was at the park. It was like a skating dream where you see perfect spots and you are just going and going, but this was real .
@dfpguitar Yeah, it's worth it . Security is tighter now . I started skating when city centres used to be shut on Sundays and all the skates used to travel city to city as you had free access to the whole city without much push back . I'm still skating in my 40s and have been skating some 26 years or more. So I'm happy with a curb 'slappy' and skate park pools. we have a great one in the Works skate park, which is as skater for many a year, I own the guys and a few people on the board for trustees so a small number get to go after hours late into the night. That's my lot these days ,but I still go to Hyde Park skate park and ask a few locals whose spots are still good. But the hill bomb from Hyde Park rear right to city Square in Leeds is still good .
George Powell delivering the dragon formula to the public changed skateboarding forever! Ben with this extraordinary ability to balance just about any surface with reinforced confidence by using the latest in technology. Thank you for making these quality films so That we may view them for the rest of our lives.
Neither. This is a follow car run, the rig has suction cups to the hood or the side of the car and masses of duct tape.. Powell Downhill Division is where it's at!!
Holy crap man! That was sick. Makes me want to go hit the puny hill down the street from my house and pretend I’m as good as Ben. Super stoked on that video!
I remember skating down hills in North Vancouver BC in the 80s. It was so much fun. Slowing down on the grass! I never was as fearless as you. Wow! I had a Tony Hawk, and always loved Powell Peralta. I ended up freestyling with a Rodney Mullen. They were the best times in my life.
All the standys were wicked to watch. Still trying to understand techniques, but learned so much with so many. But slide finish with laughter is real and fun. Epic vid. 🙏🙇🏻♂️
Sketchy as heck riding those wheels like that. Buttered ice. Def not what I would choose. I ride several sets of dragons but they are uncontrollable for me sliding.
Yea I just got 64 mm dragons and I was bombing a hill and they slid out from me , kinda hard to control slide , like sometimes they are super slippery then super sticky, idk they seem inconsistent so far , but maybe I just suck cus this guy was obviously handling them well 😂
I have to agree I just got the 64 mm and they slipped out from me and i almost ate shit, they are very inconsistent, super sticky at times then super slidy
I have a few set ups with dragon formula 54s and 55s and at high speeds they get pretty slick, but in the wide 60’s of the video, they look much grippier. This was pretty gnarly either way.
come out the Gifford Pinchot National Forest! We have tons of FRESH black top logging roads fresh for the taking........ These roads are closed all winter long and only open for the summer. Butter!
I want to know how far he made it...top speed. Spotters? How many times has he bombed that spot... so many questions.... powell Peralta will always have a special place in my ♥
About a mile and a half with 1000 vertical drop. In the beginning and end I’m at about 45mph. No spotters. First time ever riding this road. Thank you for your questions.
are the dragons bringing hype back to longboarding like them otang wheels and loaded boards?? I kinda wanna know whats good w them. I checked out around "These" wheels. Been a while since I laid some nice thane.
I believe so. Orang and loaded have a lot of hype. I believe Powell and all of their equipment represent the industry standards. Powell is now the biggest name in DH skateboards because of the consistencies in their formulas.
This is so RAD. Skating at its basics but so much fun. He's got some GNARLY slides that aint so basic lol my eyes started watering a little bit i feel like I was bombing that hill lol
Dear lord. That was the gnarliest thing we’ve seen in a long while.
Thank you homies! i appreciate that a lot.

MAN HELL FUCKING YES POWELL PERALTA IS SKATEBOARDING
was. then plan b came along...
Without Stacy I don't think there would have been a PlanB.... or any of the rest. He held the industry together for quite a while. Do your homework

Going to be checking out aerial images of this campus. Live at the other end of the country but seems worth a visit.

This level of skating on a double-kick is unparalleled. Go Ben!

i appreciate the compliments boss! Dragons changed my life. it is my favorite formula ever!
@benjaminduerr5455 I also enjoyed watching the first video with the white version of the wheels My favorite part you didnt touch the ground at all!
That heelside at 3:50 is one of the craziest things I've seen
Damn, Homies haulin ass😅 that's gotta be the ultimate flat spot test run right there. Shots out to the Camera Man on this one too🔥
I can't tell is it a drone?
@@DaveReedDRI think bike? Gnar if he’s skating too hahah
Neither.
This is a follow car run, the rig has suction cups to the hood or the side of the car and masses of duct tape..
Powell Downhill Division is where it's at!!
Much appreciated! Yeah, we used a car mounted camera to film this one
@@DaveReedDR Defo not a drone. Ya can hear the car or bike accelerating.
Much respect to the filmer
I love that. My heart pumped harder during the whole clip. Also the colors of the trees were amazing to watch.
Awesome down hill SK8ING. The drift Power Slides!🫵😊
Holy crap man! That was sick. Makes me want to go hit the puny hill down the street from my house and pretend I’m as good as Ben. Super stoked on that video!
such a sick set up, the aeras on a dk is the dream for me
that's one of the craziest run i've ever seen
Would be sweet if you guys had a speedometer in the lower corner of the shot. I love that Powell-Peralta is still a rad company after all these years!
Gleaming the Cube 👏👏👏
Best thing I’ve seen today! Love the old school intro and outro! Please lean into that more!
Thank you! I appreciate that a lot.
The heat inside those wheels after that run.. apt they are "dragons" 😄
After runs like this, they are too hot to touch. The hotter they are the better they slide, it is wild.
@@benjaminduerr5455 few more slides and i reckon you'd melt them free from their bearings !! RAD
BEN IS THE BEST DUDE! that was insane! 😩
takumi fujiwara has returned and he got into skating
Amazing! Total fearless skating. Loved it Ben.
Thank you boss!

ive often use Ben's footage when i need some inspiration during my ongoing progression with skating. His freeriding is so on it
Thank you so much. That means a lot! Keep pushing boss!
👊🏻
Watching this video is cathartic.
Fuck yeah! That's the hardest wheel I've ever seen anyone downhill like that on. Sick. 🤘 Those slides were noice.
My body hurts all over seeing the wobbles start up.
93a is hard for downhill, yet it sounds filmy and smooth
That was fcin gnarly! 🤘🏼
FUCK!! My heart was racing the whole time, and I'm sitting at home!
Mind boggle bombing but still has time to shout “Happy Thanksgiving!”
Thank you😂😂. Always gotta be nice to the neighbors
He'll yeah brother!!! That was so dope 🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥

🔥 I can’t think of a better raw run
This was so fucking awesome
Pure talent
4:20 man thats fast 😮
normally hate on downhill vids but the scenery is so pretty and those slides are nice
Why would you hate on downhill vids??

Same for me!
Dragons feel like soft wheels on wet ground. They slip out more than they slide.
Yea I just got 64 mm dragons and I was bombing a hill and they slid out from me , kinda hard to control slide , like sometimes they are super slippery then super sticky, idk they seem inconsistent so far , but maybe I just suck cus this guy was obviously handling them well 😂

This was awesome! Would love to see hill bombs on regular/popsicle deck and wheels!
yeah nice everything is coming together, it's all skateboarding🛹👌🏻
Them back power slides were Gnar
"Toesides"

Looked more like a slope style run . right on dude
Looks like the tarheel state 🤙
Good ole NC

Gnarly
Slither on the skither
Does he have his trucks super tight for this kind of riding? And does he use specific wheels to help with the speed and stability as well?
Whooo hoo hoo hooooooooooo! 🤙
This is so RAD. Skating at its basics but so much fun. He's got some GNARLY slides that aint so basic lol my eyes started watering a little bit i feel like I was bombing that hill lol
Hauling like that on 93A? I've clearly been outta the game for too long sheesh.
Holy sh!t SO RAD !!!!!!!!
