I don't believe I've ever started a thread other than the obligatory hello and feel as though I haven't contributed too much. Seeing as many of you guys shred both on land and at sea i figured a general longboarding discussion/clip sharing/set ups etc etc... is in order I'll start it off with an edit from this winter...

I live in a fairly flat area. But there is this one neighborhood 20 min away, and there's this block that is just a long winding downhill run with a bunch of culdesacs branching off of it. At the bottom it lets you out on to a big "O" shaped road, with the main buddy road connected to that "O" road. I call it Behemoth. Don't go much any more but you could bomb it. You could cruise down by not starting to high up. You could boogie down it and use the inclined culdesac roads to rip turns or slides on. Lots of fun. What I got really into was sliding. You can youtube it if you don't know what I'm talking about. Coleman slides and pendulum slides. Made my own slide gloves with cutting board and gardening gloves. Im off tomorrow. I should go after the morning session
