          ^ I, too, love the occasional parking garage. Nothing like riding down and taking an elevator right back to the top.

          I'll post some pics of my board tomorrow, but it's still very much a work in progress.

              for those of you who know how to slide, pick up a pair of slide gloves. They are super fun to just goof around with. you can also make them, which is what I did.

                longboarding is pretty much one of the chillest things to do. i ride a sector 9 thats never failed me for bombing hills. and then i have a few custom built ones i made myself for dancing and such.

                as for sliding gloves, buy a cutting board and some nice thick leather gloves. and melt the cutting board onto them (after you cut out the size of peice you want) saves you some money and they work just as good as any other glove ive used.

                to get rid of speed wobbles for the most part, tighten your trucks up a bit and it will keep you more stable.

                          Wait - too heavy for longboards?

                            It's not a weight issue, they're not setup right. The bushings are different I think, and longboard trucks are usually wider.
