    Default Think this spots been skated?

    A buddy sent me this picture. Any one think it's been skated? Or better yet, would you have the nads to try it yourself?

    BTW, It's in China. And drops a good 7000 feet on the way down.

    Gondola's the best part!

    Dave, that's exactly what I said! That leg stamina would be the biggest obstacle. Just thinking about the tuck made my muscles cramp a bit.

    The craziest thing i have done was skated down a hill with an electric fence on both sides, you would need a parachute if you wanted to skate that otherwise, if you mess up...

    HELL YEAH! (not saying hell yeah it's been skated, but hell yeah it should be!)
    sick road, and a gondola? Jeez, it's begging to be hit.
    I agree with David on the lunchbreak bit.

    A longboard is a skateboard in the same way a MILF is still a mother.

    I'd skate UP the hill and take the gondola back down. Just to be a rebel!

    I'd love to see someone attempt it, as long as they didn't die doing it

    hmm the pics look fine to me..

    Looks like a sick hill to me! I think you could take it down all at once. You don't have to be tucking 100% of the time. What's the average grade on that? that pavement looks smoooth

    Because he was actually was nice enough to reduce the size after I asked. Take it in one run? Errr.....I dunno 7000 ft is a long way down. I'd want a lunch break and a leg massage from a nice Chinese woman. =D

    I wouldn't/couldn't/shouldn't tuck that. I'd be hands down the entire way.

    Forgot the name, but yes, I believe it's in Switzerland. Topgear did a show where they drove on it. I'm sure it's on youtube.
    Go out, skate, and enjoy the ride.
