[Virus91]

Hahaha, butterfly to the visor may not be as awesome as it looks like.

Awesome must be to hit a pigeon!

haha it scared the crap outa me.. i though somebody threw somethin at me lol

[billygoat23]

There was a huge crack just a tad bigger than my wheels that I hit one time. I didn't see it cuz it was dark but my front truck sank almost all the way down and I was sprawled on the pavement... nice.

p.s. those tittays on the third page of this thread are SWEET

I crashed into a hot girl on a bike the other day.
We both went off the sidewalk to avoid a traffic jam of (stupid) pedestrians.


She wasn't strange, I just felt like bragging.
She was really concerned for my well-being. I ALMOST got a bike tire to the 'nads, but thankfully I'm 5'10'' and a half now instead of 5'10'', so my future children are safe.

No crash but a close call!!! Me and 10 friends were bombing Haleakala on Maui this past weekend and towards the bottom a few friends went into this right hairpin with rock walls on both sides (kinda a blind turn) and right on the inside a cow was sitting on the outside of the inside white line and my friend kenny could have reached his arm out to grab the cow...what a crash that would have been!

Would that have been a good enough reason to cry over spilled milk?

i ran over a toad and literally flipped my board..... the toad died and so did the nose of my glyde

I think it would warrant a tear or 2...hahaha

Q: strangest thing you've ever crashed into?

A: straight into the side of a moving F-250 at 25-30 mph

[Shorty1038]

Well this was when I used to skateboard.

I was just riding and a little kid was throwing a gatorade bottle and it land right infront of my trucks and I just wiped out hard. Not fun.

One night we got busted in one garage so we went to another. We didn't scope out the garage first..
As I started my decent, Mr. Mile High Skates was in front of me. We went around a corner into some darkness (it was at night) and Mr. Skates yells "Look out.." as I saw him squat down on his board. Too late..I hit a 1/2 thick steel cable that was strung across the ramp...I hit it waist high. My feet left the board..I remember seeing both of my Van's in front of me as I was horizontal about 4ft off the ground. The cable then either broke or came undone from its connection and I was "rubber-banded" to the cold hard dark cement. I hit hard on my left hip. I writhed in pain for about 10 seconds and then jumped up and ran around yelling "ow..ow" and more "ow."

I had a bruise that went from my hip down to my knee and wrapped around my leg 8-10in wide. My damaged area was a beautiful purble-ish, blue-ish mess of contusion that lasted about 6 weeks.

Steel cable for the win!

Well this was when I used to skateboard.

You don't skateboard anymore? Why are you here?

Steel cable for the win!

I blindly hit 1/4" steel cable, knee high, got clotheslined by it. Tore up my leg from knee to ankle, and I manage to get my arm on it too. I'm sure it was a hilarious crash to watch...

I'm afraid it doesn't.
Because y'know, a "Longboard" is a skateboard.

Lemme clear up this before firefighters have to put out this flaming.

By skateboarding I meant what some would call shortboarding, but I hate that phrase.
I do recognize that longboarding is skateboarding but I put it in a different catagory.
Like a Motorcyle and Mo-Ped under the same broad category but different.

some kid decided to play chicken with me. He saw me going down the hill and went into the middle of the road and tried to block me. He wimped out when i didn't swerve

[themccannman]

Well i had an eventful slide session yesterday, i was out in the local park with Mr. longboarder, which is the only source of hills in our town, and we were using a hill next to the river that ran through the middle of the park. Mr longboarder went down and did a coleman slide and almost lost his board in the water, i laughed and thought to myself how much it would've sucked if he had lost his board, i think you can guess whaqt happened next, ya thats right, i went down and did a coleman too, the only problem was that i misjudged the width of the sidewalk and slid right onto the river bank. I literally sh!t my pants as my board rolled into black murky water, then i realized the river was only about a foot deep so i fished my board out, i had to skate 3 miles home on a soping wet board, all in all an interesting day...

It seems like the load in your pants would have been more of a problem on the ride home than the wet board.

Ya well i was so happy that i got my board back that i forgot about it.
