That's good too! Its good to see that its not perfect first take.

How can a skateboard be ridden sideways like that? How do they get them to slip sideways and not catch? They seemed more like snowboards.

Also, what are the puck like things on their wrist guards? Obviously made out of something to let them slide along the tarmac.

Those guys are sooooo impressive...and to think the road is not even closed off, with that car coming around the corner

Trucks on those boards must be tightened right up to stop speed wobbles.

Thanks for posting!!

Certainly not in the same league and obviously "Hollywood-ed" up, but still one of my favourite movies and scenes from recent times.

Break out the kevlar underwear !

Not even so much as an elbow pad and no brakes...

Proof of the faith these Scandinavians have in their health cover. Amazing skills!

I would have pissed myself. Does that make it a water sport?
