I went 60mph finally !!

[djackson]

I was at Tyler State Park, PA. Car behind me estimated over 60mph (he couldnt go any faster) and I was still pulling away. WHAT A RUSH!!! My stomach still hurts from shaking so much to be honest, and there were cars now and then on the other side, but I did it. Will I do it again...I dont know. It's kinda a long sweeping right turn, with a little gully on each side, then trees. Just excited, been luging for 2 years now. Burnt my shoes....and stopping sounded like a loud turbine winding down...awesome, everyone in the park was watching, and there was a fund raiser there at the same time. This sport rocks!!!! Go ahead and poke fun at my cheesy 60mph sign

congrats dude. now all you need is a cheap gps ducktaped to the front of your board. tis how i logged myself at 40mph on a longboard.

[SpeedFiend]

nice whats are the hills like out there?

[KennyT772]

well i was in grand haven, in the cemetary. nice smooth concrete. i kicked to fullspeed over the top of the hill and held on for dear life. right at the bottom of the hill the gps ticked past 40 and i just started slowing down from there. most of the stuff in west michigan is either flat or to dangerous to hit, save the cemetary and a few other places.

hahaha dude, remember, For Closeup pics use Macro mode!!

congrats on reaching 60, I hope I will reach 40 someday on longboard!

[Justin Metcalf]

wow...have you ever really stopped and thought about how fast that really is? I remember being proud of moving 20mph under my own power before starting longboarding...60mph is absolutely sick man! Hopefully I break 40 soon on standup

Now all you have to do is stand up

[HerBDerb]

Now all you have to do is stand up

Hehehe.

[Rustyfriend]

i was actually planning on hitting 60 soon, we found the hill.........just have to make the drive

ala kludy... "Stand up rules!!!"

[djackson]

Thanks guys, 60 MPH is alot faster than you think, especially when your doing it. I know, forgot to use macro. Theres no way I will STAND UP going that fast, and if you do....then you are 'the man' and mad props, cause thats crusin'! I just sat up, and the wind totally slowed me...and I had confidence and was in control, but really couldnt help thinking (when I was done) how I really could have got hurt, but I'm getting better not thinking that.

[lettucefresh]

me and shaggyian were hitting this 50+ mph hill and hitchhiking back up, so this guy gives us a ride and starts talking about how a luger was hitting it and crashed into the ditch on the side of the road and laid there for like an hour before having to be airlifted out to a hospital. This was on the way up for our first run. we were like, uh, thanks, dude. If you let yourself get phsyced out, you will. congrats on 60, that's cruisin.
