Swedish road trip

Here's a few shots from my trip to Sweden, stunning views but rough roads (damn snow tyres). More shots to come of the longboarders I met, unfortunately when we were getting pissed, not skating.



Experiment

I wanted to see if you can turn a super stable DH deck into a super pumping city cruiser using a carving undercarriage .

Here it is, Phil's DH and my Seismics with a 45° front plate (white springs) and a 30° back plate (red springs) plus a little wedge in the front.

Outcome: It works! Good fun, pumps like a dream and so low you can almost walk with one foot on the board through crowds. Just watch out for speed bumps, sorry Phil.





Verdict: I still love my spooky!

Bunch of idiots!

But what a laugh!

This video popped up in the side panel but I embedded it just because it's so outrageous!

If there was ever a bunch of reasons for doing what we do, most of them are shown in this video! It's not over til the fat bloke rides!

Exning Reccy

Rick found a nice little hill near Newmarket, I didn't have my helmet with me and running on 78A bushings so I didn't hit it too hard at all and still reached 25 mph. I think it's worth a look on the downhill boards, it's lovely and smooth and has an opposite side that looks a lot hairier.

Video is a bit jumpy but you get the idea.

Shredded Wheel

I managed to slide my wheel off!

Phil, I think I know what that funny noise was when we were sliding at the Gogs.

Love this video

Not exactly long-boarding but...

... some sweet shots of the boys In OVER and ROYSTON.


Optical illusion



If you stare at this picture for long enough,
you suddenly see a longboard!

Old ones are the best.
