    Default Skitching

    Like when you hang on to the back of cars and hitch a free ride...Who regularly does this to stranger's cars? What's that fastest anyone has skitched? I grab on to the back of my mopeds all the time and get up to 50 km/h in seconds for no reason at all, though I'd like to sometime hit 60km behind it, and thats as fast as it will go actually....thats weak sauce

    I guess you could call this a trick

    I prefer getting a ride to skitching. THere's way too much that's unpredictable and dangerous when you're skitching than I'd like to risk. Besides, you don't need to skitch to go at 50-60 km/h

    You need to skitch to 50-60 when your on flats unless you can push like a motherf*cker. And yeah I just read up on the many stories of skitching accidents with destroyed boards (and riders). Scary stuff...

    I skitched a moped at 37mph.
    But my friend skitches random cars all the time, it is amazing, so funny to watch!

    I've done it once with a friend. It hurt when I hit the ground.

    ive only done it once. a van pulled out of a driveway in front of me, i pushed hard maybe twice then ducked down and grabbed the trunk latch.

    he pulled me maybe 150 feet slightly uphill, top speed like, 20 km/h cuz he was accelerating from a stop

    any other time i can never get to the car in time, im like, 3 feet behind it and they take off.
    also, i dunno why but when i see the person's rearview mirror i back off, as if im afraid of getting in trouble.
    (what's the worse they could do)

    even if they put the brakes on, just put your weight onto the back and ease yourself into the back of the car.
