Just bored and wanted to see if anyone else here longboards or skates and share your BEST experiences/WORST experiences!
Also please share more about this hobby/profession such as your board setup, favotire places to skate, whatever pops up in your mind!.. if you so choose, ill go first
I'm a longboarder trying to get sponsored so I can fullfil my dream of someday becoming a professional longboarder. I'm out practicing about um... 6 hours a day on average. I'm intrested in freeriding (doing tricks, sliding, in a more enclosed area) but I also love to bomb hills! I currently purchased a Loaded Dervish with Paris 180 trucks and Orangatang Durian's and put my own custom grip tape and well.. I love it!
My best experience was probably when I went down my first hill at 30mph, it was very scary and I got speed wobbles and had trouble because I was unexperianced and didn't know how to handle it but I made it down safely and it was very rewarding
Another favorite of mine was when me and my friend went out around 3am and bombed hills and just hung out having a good time riding on our boards and another time we went out around 10pm and met some girls at a park, fun stuff!
(The two stories above took place 1 year ago)
More recent experiances was probably when I landed a Ghostride Kickflip, or when I learned how to tiger claw off a 5 stair!
My worst experience was when mu friend and I decided to go down a steep hill for his birthday and it was scary but.. we went for it. We were going to fast and we both knew that but it was to late and we were going to fast that we couldn't carve (we weren't as experienced as we are now). We would've made it, hadn't there been two speed bumps plotting my demise. The first one shook me up and the second made me loose control and fall off.. I got bad road rash and cuts and had to be rushed to the hospital and well.. it sucks. Especcially cleaning the cuts afterwards because the bandaged got stuck to my exposed flesh... *shivers*
My friend made it down the hill successfully somehow and gave me shit about it.. that is until he got his mouth shut. Because he broke his jaw. (mwuahaha)
Anyways, tell me about your boarding life!

Skateboarding was the thing to do circa 2005-2006. It was a short lived hobby my freshman and sophomore years of high school. My friends all still skateboard. I'd rather just film and photograph for them.
Best experience: probably my first drop down into the half pipe.
Worst experience: falling, skidding, seeing bone.
