Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
buy two mattresses and tape them to both sides of yourself and cut a little hole to poke your head out of. airbraking will be easy and it will preserve your broken skeleton after impact

Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
I didnt read through this entire thread, but instead of a solid stack of washers on your rear truck, why not de-wedge the rear to 0 degrees and put in some very hard bushings. This way you will still be able to lean and steer the board without having one of your wheels lift of the ground, or fighting against the lean of te front truck. If you wanted to minimize the amount of lean while stillf retaining some steering ability you could thin out the hard bushings to half their thickness, and then use washers to make up the height difference. I say experiment with a few more things and then give it a go. Superbike riders bail all the time going well over 100mph, and their are very very few fatalities. On your public road however, I would be most afraid of wobbling out, and sliding right into one of those telephone poles. Maybe you could find a local drag strip to do this on, or even speak to a local race track or something like that. Best of Luck, I bet you pull it off without a problem.

some one was posting his numbers and info about his family and friends. calm down.

Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
Try this on for size.
Do not do this. If you
do this successfully,
you will still probably be
caught by the cops. If
you fail, the cops and
paramedics will have to
waste our tax dollars to
scoop your bloody
mess off the ground. If
you get caught, the
downhill skateboarding
world will be at risk.
Remember, in such a
small niche sport, you
represent all of us. DO
NOT mess up our
culture. DO NOT do
this. We do not care
about you, we care
about our sport. DO
NOT jepordize others.
Dude, I was fu.cking arrested two weeks ago for skating 60mph on a 2 lane highway. You are going to try to hit 100mph on a ONE LANE ROAD? Dude...you have no where to go except for that one section 10 feet wide....
I don't care if you know what you are doing or not. YOU WILL get arrested. Trust me. If the police could find me and my buddies down this highway, they will definitely find you on that small little road and TRUST ME they will be pi.ssed.

Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
No way! the other day I thought it would be an awesome idea to reach 100 mph on a longboard.
And then I realized I was just coming down off my crystal meth.

Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
Oh yeah, tell your mom that if she has increased your life insurance policy any time recently she might have to go to jail too (insurance fraud). Not sure that would happen if you die, but she apparently knows you want to do this and isn't stopping you (and you're under 18}. At the very least she won't get the money any time soon. This isn't worth it. $hit just buy a motorcycle if you want to go that fast.

Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
Originally, I really couldn't care less if you do this or not, I don't know you personally and I don't talk to you on here so I simply don't care, sorry. As Jam said, you represent our sport here, if you die doing this.........we get horrible rep and then they'll start to ban us from doing what we do (we don't need anymore of it) so I also agree with everyones friendly (or not so friendly advice) to just not do it. Its not worth risking your life to go 100mph on a one lane road behind a car. You have your entire life ahead of you, don't kill yourself now.

Re: My upcoming 100mph attempt
Wow. I am not a speedboarder, but I totally agree with these dudes. Don't mess up the sport for everyone because you feel the need to prove something.
Unless you have all the required permits, this attempt will be highly illegal. Highly dangerous to boot.
The sport of speedboarding may have progressed to the point of 100mph being somewhat accomplishable, but I ask you, is it worth the risk?
