2:53, this perfectly explains how I go about riding down hills like the one on SW Vista Avenue here in Portland, Oregon. Especially at around 2-3:00 P:M, a lot of cars can show up, so you have to launch at a time when there's a period of time of no cars for several seconds. Then once you DO get someone behind you, you gotta REALLY speed up and flex your skills! I did that just yesterday and it was amazing. 😍
Thanks for making this video, glad the algorithm recommended it, i've loved my long board but am not so fond of the hills around my area and the kind of lack of speed control that longboards give you if you aren't particularly good at shaving off speed, which i'm not when the wheels are limited to only one direction and having to distribute weight incredibly fast, i very much like this idea and board, might cop one in the future, if i do, i'll use the link in the description :) very cool
Love this comment and cheers for buying through the link, it helps a lot. I think you'll love Freebording if you've wanted a way to control your speed downhill, it's seriously under rated. Definitely let me know if you get one, I'd love to hear how you find it! 🏂
It will take time unfortunately for a new Freebord like the 5x or 5 to arrive at your door if you live in America, but the good news is that there are MANY people selling boards second hand for ridiculously good deals, and I recommend starting with a used board ANYWAY to get the basics down and to find out if you like Freebord or not. That is how I did it. 😁
7:35, honesty, maybe it's just me, but my 5x has been hella durable, and has had few issues for the most part. The only difficulties I've had with the 5x is just finding good replacement bearings and wheels. 😂
@@easy_riders Perhaps yours wasn't as good as mine is because mine might have come out as a later batch? I dunno, but either way, I'm loving the board, that's what matters! 😆
Not sure how much you care or can do anything about it, but watching this video made me physically nauseous. I know the 360 cams open a new world of self filming, but they shine because you can choose what "frame" to use out of the 360 available. But the shots where you hold the frame stable, but then whip it around when you spin... yech. I don't know if it's just the timing and spinning the "frame" a little slower would help? But I literally sighed with relief during the tripod shots.
You are so underrated

All of us will be able to say we were here before the 100K
whatever you still get to say you were first q
Legend, pretty sure you've been here before 10 😂 Freebord boom is coming, 2024 is THE year. 👌
Here here! 😊
Nice Video again! Inspiring. ANd yeah the hooks are really nice and its always easy to get out of it fast :)
Especially the S2 bindings.

I mean I guess theyre durable for most things! Its good to hear yours is holding up well 🏂

i have recently started freebording I have found the learning process a little disheartening but this video really helps, thanks
Im glad it helped, stick with it and once it clicks you'll realise how much fun it is!
I'm coming to UK tomorrow, can't wait to find and try some road to shred with the 5X!
Thats sick! I hope the weather isn't too bad, it's rarely sunny here 😂
Hey man, great video as always. Many thanks for the good vibes. Can you share how to custom wrap the Freebord 5X desk above/under part?
Yo, I actually have a video on this very early on the channel. Something like "Ultimate Freebord Revamp" or something 👌
For me I learned snowboarding first then freebord later. Snowboarding in every season😁
Looks very cool, but when you spin it around all time i feel car sick watching....
Noted, Ill do more spinning with tripod and less with the selfie stick👌🏂
You are making me want one.. 😂
You won't regret it, once you've passed the learning phase it's pretty much the funnest thing ever imo 👌🏂

Much appreciate this. Ill be working on this in the mext few videos, glad to have some valuable constructive critisism though! 👊
