Somebody let me in on what Mt. Scott looks like. Bombable?

I think you would have to be at the top of your game...lots of traffic, no guardrails, just jagged rocks that line th roadway.

If you go, be careful

So besides all of that the road is decent enough to bomb down.

I actually moved away from Tulsa one year ago this week. There used to be a huge group of downhillers around there! Oklahoma has some of the sickest hills in the country if you know where to look. I will be holding a big Memorial Day fun run out that way, where there are hills good for 80mph on luge and 65mph on stand-up. I also know of a 60mph hill (on streetluge) in Tulsa.

Here's a link to coverage of a world cup race we held in Oklahoma a few years back.

Talimena Drive

And a link to an article about OK downhilling.

Oklahoma, April 2002

Enjoy!

Hey dudes. Im In OKC. I've been longboarding for a few years now. Cool hills out where i live by yukon. We always go up to the garages in downtown okc and shred.

Yo Jay -

And anybody else from Oklahoma, the Okie Longboarding thread at the top of the Great Plains forum that is labeled Sticky is our main source of communication for sessions and events around the Metro area. So keep checking on this thread and post when you want or can skate and that way we can all hopefully get some decent sessions going for this spring and summer. There were two events last October (one that Pressure Drop Longboards sponsored). More may be in store. Peace.
