i believe body type really does affect riding styles and preferences  i can imagine how going from tuck to preparing for a standup slide be a little more unstable for someone more taller than...

@Adam Hedrick ahh this clip makes me want to skate tepe. might have to go next year

How's the 16wb feel?

So, I know bigger weight people gotta ride a gripper setup to attempt the same line as lighter people, but what else effects a setup, as well as riding style beyond preferance?

ive been hearing great things about BO Bangers

I think Cole Trotta has cracked the code on a lot of the "shortform" content that is popular on a lot of platforms. I feel that as fast as DH is, it happens REALLY slowly sometimes, especially comp...

@Bobomatic they're square lipped massive downhill wheels meant for glovedown fast riding. Calling that "freeride" is technically within the realm of freeriding I guess, but I think that the term "...

America's finest skate crew in America's finest city 👌 

@Gabriel Fockler In all honesty... those ARE freeride wheels. 

@David Serate I love well run outlaws, so much.  I agree that its hard to get dh in the mainstream more, IMO that is in part, because people want to see something new and more crazy, and we'r...

Black Lab Slide Pucks and venom Tweakers. Also, precision calibers in wide versions and Bear Grizzlies.

Hey all my name is Aaron, I started a skate collective with a bunch of my friends in San Diego! If you want to come through or see what/where the sessions are find us on instagram at @edge_crew_ska...

I definitely think that promoting outlaws / other events is generally a net positive for the community (provided the events are run reasonably well). I think that as good as Luke Spud's videos are,...

@Hayden Bean your right, this is one of those "stunt" or "people are awesome" viral videos. Which raises a new question, does Viral media have any positive or negative effect on the area of interes...

Regular zealous are the only choice. Cheap, built in spacers, run forever. 

Woodbooger Freeride IS ON We met the 80 rider minimum! There's around 20-25 open spots remaining, so sign up while you can. See you there!

That setup wants freeride wheels

This is Colombia, right? I don't think that this will have any effect here.  I feel like peak posting-harmful-content was early 2010s caliber stuff (no helmet, lane chops, swerving at cars). ...

Looks like a roll of the dice as to how these would feel. The big core one would core super quick, I've had wheels in that shape before. I'd just buy normal wheels at this point, some purple kevins...

Imo these types of vids are great for exposure but fall into the category of so dangerous people would never try it, and it probably won't bring many new people into the sport. I also don't particu...

I don't think vids like this reach the Karen side of the internet ngl. No harm no foul.

Sizzle Dizzle Freeride and Race is back for another year. On August 3-4th in Carson Washington. Join us for a weekend of bombing hills and camping in the beautiful Gifford Pinchot National Forest. ...

This setup looks like it is used by someone whose afraid to be seen having fun freeriding.
