I've done 108km/h(max speed) on a snowboard and that was frightening as ****... Can't imagine how scary it would be on a skateboard, with no easy way to stop.
That's funny. 1 thread about a bloke feeling terrible because he could of accidentally killed a kid and then another thread with a skateboarder doing 30 -50mph in traffic.
I think gravelrash would be the least of HIS worries. BUT what about the driver who's car he goes under?
I'll get red thumbed but lately I've had a lot of close calls with the resurgence of skateboarding. No brakes, no helmets no problems?
I grew up skateboarding but the streets were quiet and as for riding on a major rd we understood physics better than the guy in the clip. Sure he probably has a "braking " system with the electric motor but that only stops the board not him.
I'm all for Darwinism but not when you involve innocent people.
