Wow, that could of been really bad. Who rides a skateboard with the trucks that loose?

 

THIS is loose.



He doesn't even use bushings in the front truck, just washers. Daewon Song 2006 skater of the year. Loose trucks ftw.

 

Loose trucks for doing street tricks yeah cause you need the mobility, but does he run that when he hits hills?

 

I'd guess the dude didn't have a clue what he was doing. Probably went out with some friends and said 'wow that looks fun and easy, let me try!' and grabbed his friends board while the rest film it and

It's easy to bomb hills with loose tricks.... if you know what you're doing I got speed wobbles once and scabbed up my whole back but that was when I was a beginner. Get back up, lick your wounds and try another day.

 

That's for technical tricks where you need it. That dude rips by the way. I love his style.

For bombing hills you don't want loose trucks. Should see the set ups these guys on the mega ramps run. Those aren't your super thin loose trucked street boards by any means.

 

Didn't hit a thing. Just massive speed wobbles at ~40mph. Got ejected and hit my head super hard somehow. I've fallen at speeds of 25mph or so and been relatively fine, but that one was just super bad/unlucky I suppose. Helmets FTMFW for sure.

Bah! Speak for yourself! Bombing hills is way more fun with loose trucks... and you can't compare the mega ramp to hill bombing. Two different animals.

Here is a good vid.
