My name is ryan and I'm part of team 4 8 0. The team is a little something we put together and consists of me, cole, josh, austin, and jordan. There are lots of skaters throughout the valley and everyones got something to offer. We'll be doing tons of skating this summer and skate probly every other day now haha.


That's our video we put out like a month ago...there are also a couple other small "teams" throughout AZ. I mainly do DH but trying to learn sliding...what part of AZ are you in?

My name is Damon, Arizona has a lot to offer for DH. Just look at the Longboard world map. Mount Lemmon is like the holy grail of Down Hill.

All of us in our group has hit lower 50's
the REAL runs your talking about here are amazing. Nice sweeping turns going like 50 and the 260 which is 10 miles of 45-50mph possibly faster. Its good stuff dude

Im Cole man. Im one of the peeps in the crew with Chopko and Josh . I come from a bit of a different background then these fellas , although dh seems to be consuming me lately haha. I am an avid dancer lol. I love boardwalking and slide as welll. As for my dancing / cruising set up i ride an LBL Komodo with paris 180s and loaded Durians. I also ride a LBL dancer at times. As for DH i have a wood LBL tarpon on Paris 180's with Jim Z whites and lemon Big Zigs. I tend to be the one organizing events in the commmunity and would love help you out or join up. I have sponsorships for the events already taken care of. we just need to do the legal end and the location. We hosted a race on a hill called sickamore creek , one of the 45mph+ hills a few months back and that was way sick. I am loookin to do another summer push race in July , and this one i will probably run through the State so it can be wayyy wayy bigger. If you need anything hit me up. 480 510 3841

We pretty much made the team because we ride together everyday and are from the same area....but I'm not against adding a member if you deserve it =) If you're the same skill level as us (or better hah) and a cool dude I'm sure we could work something out. Def gotta ride with ya first, but you sound like you know your stuff. I'm on a madrid sean mallard, randy 180's, lime bigzgis, venom dh barrel bushings. This summer should be amazing since everyone in the group will be down here (jordan goes to school up at nau) so we'll def put some stuff together. We'll have to take you to south mountain, sycamore creek (40-50mph wide sweeping turns), fountain hills (playground for longboarders), and some other stuff.

I ride a Rogers Bros DH40 with Pogos and Talons. I'll be in Portland by the time you get here but I ride with Josh and Chopko and Cole a lot. I'm still trying to convince them to come riding in Portland so maybe you can tag along with them.

Arizona already has a pretty big scene so I'm not sure there's much to bring out of the shadows... People will be stoked to go to events though.
