I love longboarding. I mainly carve and ride downhill, but I’m gonna get into sliding soon. I currently ride a Gravity Drop-Thru Makai with 74a Gravity Blazers wheels and Randal 180 trucks.
Yeah, it has a really smooth ride and very rarely speed wobbles. I just learned I have an extremely long downhill bike trail that welcomes longboards near me, so I want to check that out before the weather gets colder.
For DH I ride a Chinook on randalls with venom bushings and Big Zigs and for free riding i’ve got a never summer revolt on paris with venom bushings and duval killawatts.
I got into longboarding about 7 months ago for my commute to work. My first board was a big 'ol cruiser from sector9 (don’t understand the hate for these boards. I’ve ridden on 3 different decks from them, and they were all pretty decent) but now I wanna get more into free riding and sliding. I just recently got an Earthwing Miniglider with indy’s and some orangatang fat frees. ;D
I love this little guy. I learned how to do a boneless a few nights ago on it. Although…I hurt my bone in the process.
