my friend bret goes long boarding all the time. i always just thought it was bombing a hill on a long skateboard. i didnt think there was a style and technique to it. he rips so fast and takes fast quick slashes . its awesome to watch.
you can get really creative on a long board. its artistic. you can get super low and up on the nose going full speed and rip a couple slashes back and forth. you can do it on any hill and the only thing that you care about is speed. if your starting to get a little bored with just an open parking lot or hill, try and challenge yourself a bit and get into a tight squeeze at high speeds. im always trying to get into a tight squeeze at a high speed.
the best thing about long boarding is that you cant take it seriously. its just feels good to do it. i am a massive hockey fan and a die hard bruins fan, but long boarding was so much fun, there was a bruins play offs game tonight and the words "lets get a couple more hill bombs in, fuck the hockey game" came out of my mouth. but sometimes you have to have priorities. im going to take an awesome feeling cruise on my skateboard over watching sports on tv any day of the week.
go get your cruise on. maybe go green before you try it. get creative. after all, theres no way to do it wrong.
heres an awesome video of brett getting sick
and a video of me trying to get sick like brett and eating shit
