Although, I don't understand why the chase vehicle just had to be that close..........

 
WOW!
I was born with absolutely no athletic ability at all. I am completely unable to play any game / sport at a level above a competent 8-10 year old. In fact, I totally gave up even trying long ago, because all the practice in the world would not have mattered. That being said, I can truly admire the skill these young ladies show.
 
I’m pretty sure I’ve never met a woman will balls that large. Wow that was impressive.
 
My wheel would hit the pebble in the road....................
 
I've noticed a LOT of young-ish girls into skateboarding lately.

Wonder why?
 
My son in-law used to do that. He also had a long board company. I’ve seen some crazy videos. He would wear full leathers and a full face helmet. One year in CO. A deer jumped out and they had to medi vac that guy out. They would do about 60mph.
 
cool if it's a closed course, but a guy died doing that near my house when he hit a parked car a few years ago.
 
That's nothing.....try this!



I wouldn't do either....Those trucks must be t-t-t-t-tight!

Famous guy died doing the wingsuit thing too.
 
My nephew was a longboarder. He crashed a couple times and messed himself up pretty good. He got older and smarter and doesn't do it any more.

I dont blame em
If some idiot on a skateboard would run into my parked car, I'd beat em half to dead too
 
Yeah that's badass, 1/2 a heartbeat away from just really bad!
 
Can you say "road rash"? I can, and that's about all I can say I would probably accomplish trying that. I had a skateboard in my teens, never had much luck on it, decided that I would be safer to stay on a bicycle.
 
My Wife knows Biker Sherlocks widow. He was a famous (maybe the most famous) downhill skateboarder and street luge athlete during the X and Gravity Games. Regular skateboards get 'speed wobbles' when going downhill, like a shopping cart wheel when it goes crazy. Its an oscillation/wobble that you cant recover from. I dont know how these longboarders dont get them unless the trucks are so wide that they don't get them or the trucks are built with a positive caster? Ford and Jeep owners are well aware of the "death wobble" in their front suspension and have a caster increasing bushing they install to correct it.

So are a few of us 340 powered, 100 mph FJ-40 owners. Part of the problem with 4x4's is slop and play as well as poor geometry. Jacking them up without correcting caster is a problem. One of the smartest things I did with the old Landcruiser is to duplicate a late model IHC Scout trick---Crossconnect the front shackles with a single leaf spring. THAT really WORKS

I used to ride like a sick-O back in the day. Could not get me off the board, no way, no how. Loved that thing. That video was really cool and loved going for that ride along. Got my heart pumping on two fronts.

1: I miss doing that though I have never had that kind of hill to ride down, so that was exciting!

2: I also didn’t like how close the chase ride was even though the car may have been going slow and had great brakes, it was scary!!!!!!!! Those girls on the boards were really cookin with speed.

You know if I would have put one across the plate like that you would have knocked it out of the park as well...
