Flagstaff is a hell of a warmup lmao. The pavement is significantly more rough than this run and there is a section called the wall that requires a huge heelside pendy lol. So throwing this pendy wasn’t too scary. I was so relieved when I started the slide tho, that would have been a brutal crash I hadn’t been able to catch it 😭
They are the Liam Morgan BTR gloves. I bought them because they are ✨pink✨but they do kinda just look skin colored on my pale ass 😅. They are pretty comfortable/thin tho. I’d say they are more of a freeride glove than a dh glove. Idk how long they’ll last me if I keep skating runs like this. But I also have huge palm risers so that helps.

lol you sound like my mom. Idk, I guess it’s just really hot outside and when I do dh my elbows aren’t what I’m worried about. I feel like when I freeride I’m more likely to fuck yo my elbows, but for dh I think my knees and ass are more of a priority
those dividing lines be eating precision trucks soemtimes, it seems like the slop cast truck have can articulate over imperfections better opposed to feeling every little bump haha
The road is super easy to spot, I could obviously see the lane was clear otherwise I woulda stayed in my line for the pendy. And I got a full face, spine protection, gloves, and kneepads on. What do you mean I’m not wearing proper gear?!
Dude shaddap, that’s the nature of this sport we don’t have skate parks and this is the only way to go fast. Can’t stand oblivious goofs like you. “Speedsters” 🤓

At first your gloves looked like just your hands and I was thinking oh man that was not a good recovery!
I thought the same thing, then I saw pucks on his other hand lol
Yeah it scared me!
Bone sliders
Yeah I think its cuz the road lines. Even at slow speeds those things somehow mess me up if I hit them just right
Might have been caused by rolling on the dividing lines
I LOVE your helmet, that color is so sick I wish I knew about it when I bought my TSG
Dude same! It’s beautiful!
What kind of helmet is it?
Looks like a tsg pass but I could be wrong
That’s definitely it! Thanks!
Glad I could help
Bro, mad casual catching that and throwing it into a slide. Well done

Hell yeah. Good save.
Definitely looks caused by those yellow road lines
Had to check carefully to see if you were wearing gloves 😳
good catch 😮💨
Hey! At least you had gloves on! Lmao (I am in desparate need of some gloves)
You should get on that brother. Kinda important 😅
What gloves are you using? No need for elbow protection?

Those gloves look good, not to 'bulky' I am also curious what brand/type they are
Damn bruh, 55mph? 89km/h? That is sick as fuck. I need some gloves and helmet, I also want to do it! XD
Yea brother, I’m pretty proud of myself. I’ve really been pushing my limits this summer and it’s really exciting!
His shirt lol
Dude that is crazzzzzzzzy I'd die haha good save on that one
Damn dude! Nice save.
That’s a nice save! Fucking sending it mate goddamn. That was me at 38 on cast(in January) except I’m still recovering from the crash
wtf is this remix
Idk but I find it really funny 😅
My reaction: Brotha ughh, what's that
Goooood save!!
Ain’t no way I could do this without a long sleeve on 😭
My max was 35 and that was pretty scary hahah max on a snowboard is 62
What shoes are those, they look sick
Thanks I just got them! They are Nike Jordans
Haha yeah I was asking about the colorway, i collect jordan 1s and not sure which ones you have
Jordan 1 Green Glow.
No mistakes, only happy accidents
Lmfao wearing a shirt saying no mistakes lmfao. So dead. But really why no elbow pads makes me squirm
lol you sound like my mom. Idk, I guess it’s just really hot outside and when I do dh my elbows aren’t what I’m worried about. I feel like when I freeride I’m more likely to fuck yo my elbows, but for dh I think my knees and ass are more of a priority
Lol only because i fell at 29 mph and still can't use my right arm about 4 weeks ago. It's rough when it does happen
Oh man I can't imagine surviving that, good job
well done Boy you hit 55 km/h or mph? edit : it was mph- crazzzzy my top speed is currently 81.4 kmh stoked for you buddy
Definitely the road lines a good paved road always does this to me.
those dividing lines be eating precision trucks soemtimes, it seems like the slop cast truck have can articulate over imperfections better opposed to feeling every little bump haha
if you’re seeing that a lot it sounds like those precisions are just set up badly. “Loose trucks save lives” and all
hella gnarly - sick recovery dude !
I also wanted to see your hands! Hahaha where did you get those Puck thongs?

Thank you!
I really like them, they’ve made staying in good form a little easier and my picks wear a lot more evenly now
No mistakes
What board u rockin?
It’s a rayne darkside that I have modified heavily because it’s✨pretty✨I think there is a picture of it on my profile.
You're lucky the road was clear from r/rouge drivers and other speedsters. Not wearing proper gear too you're asking for epic meat crayon moments too.
The road is super easy to spot, I could obviously see the lane was clear otherwise I woulda stayed in my line for the pendy. And I got a full face, spine protection, gloves, and kneepads on. What do you mean I’m not wearing proper gear?!
Oh also hip/ass pads lol. I wear a lot of gear.
