Hey guys,<br> I've got a mountainboard, and I was thinking of getting a longboard for something faster and lighter. I hope you guys don't get sick of the "new...
MIA is right- I've been fully busy fishing on Midway atoll. We've set 7 pending world records this year, and 6 of he 7 are catch and release, meaning we catch...
Got a whole lotta post on how to stop- check'em. But there are three ways to stop- jump off, slide sideways, drag your foot or feet (sitt down and put your ...
After my experiences you would have less grip in the turns, but it would be more stable. The 215 Indys tend to break in the middle, but maybe it was just mine...
Indy's are usually pretty bullet proof. I've never broken one in 20 years. I broke a Tracker in the early 80's and changed to Indy's. I've never had any 215's...
Didn't know if I should post this in a longboard club, since this is a slalom deck, but there aren't any slalom skate clubs. :)<br><br>Check out the auction on...
We @ Urbanboards have been asked to do some filming with a digital channel tommorrow wednesday 17th at around 3pm in london near picadilly circus. We need as...

I finally got around to changing the pic.... i hope I have permission from lonecore, 'cus the pic is from his website, which is killer. Give me a shout if I...
Hi all...<br>What are the specifications of a speedboard? I am new to longboarding, but a old skater and snowboarder (so i´ve got atleast som technique :),...
Surely you have permission! You can use any images you want, and stay tuned for a new gallery coming in the next days: "Women on longboards". No new images...
Hi,<br>first of all you must know that everybody has different opinions. The one here is just mine, other people may say other things.<br><br>A speedboard ...
I've heard bad things about pivot trucks and speed. RII's, Randal DH's, or Indy 215's or 166's would probably be better. Setting up a speedboard is a very ...
Tomorrow is the Swiss Downhill Championship (skateboard, Luge and Inline) in Altbüron, and I'm going to be there and make some photos. You can expect them...
I posted the same question on NCDSA:<br>What are the advantages to the rIII and the LY Downhill design besides the obvious lower center of gravity? Why the ...
Hey John,<br>I have 2 RIIIs and am currently waiting for a third...it is all about the low center of gravity, and the large wheels(78mm+) are to keep the deck ...
I took one ride on an RIII and it seemed to break traction easier than a regular board. I think this is the reason for the rubber wheels. Also, when you buy a ...
Is it possible to drop-through mount the trucks on a Dregs race deck? I'm sure the wood is strong enough, but I'm afraid it won't work because of the strong...
Thanks Pat &Oldesktr, thanks for the 411 on the RIIIs.<br>Pat, I saw that you are from Flint, Im from the Pontiac area. Where do you ride? <br>Maybe you can...

Steelspoke-<br>LandY's DH has a cool shape and looks like an all-round cruiser, but if you are looking for a dedicated speedboard...DH could work. First start...
Pat<br>As soon a the deck comes in I'll let you know how it rides. I probably take your advice and wedge her somehow. I would still like to get my feet under...
If anyone is using these trucks and they haven't put black Independent bushings in them, I highly recomend it. Made a world of difference in mine. Don't have...
