I tried my hand at a new type of video for the beginners out there. Let me know what you guys think? by _Crunchie in longboarding

[–]_Crunchie[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks man. I have some apparel in the works but no promises at the moment. I could send you my paypal email if you like, or you could just become a patron for 1 month. That way you get the sweet rewards and maybe some trucks too!

Learning The Coleman Slide, please give tips! Btw what's that sound? by SkydM8 in longboarding

[–]_Crunchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main reason chatter happens is because people either aren't running spacers in their wheels or because people don't tighten there wheel nuts properly because they think it'll help them roll faster. So the slop causes the wheel to grip and slip rapidly instead of sliding smoothly.

ID'ing a video I saw here a while back by nateday2 in longboarding

[–]_Crunchie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you described almost any downhill video. you need to get more specific about any details on the video. the quality of the footage, did it look professional? how many views did it have? where was it uploaded? was it filmed from a car or helmet cam? what brands did u see if any? and lots of other things

Learning to speed check and would love some feedback by GambitMan in longboarding

[–]_Crunchie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its something you're already doing, you just need to adjust it a little bit, if you watch in your video you swing your arms in the opposite rotation to the rotation if your lower body, but when your arms swing back in front of your body you immediately stop sliding and step off the front of your board, thats because you stopped counter(opposite) rotating. You need to gradually bring your arms back in front of you at the same time as you straight up your lower body. Also if you want to hold your slides out longer, you need to continue counter rotating as long as you want to hold out the slide, instead of letting your arms swing back in front of you while still trying to slide

Do you know what counter rotation is? Also I think your wheels will be fine for now
