Amazing production quality with this video! Big shout out to the whole braille team for putting this video together! Loving this kind of format and hope to see more of the documentary style videos in the future
I was actually disappointed with this video! I would have liked to see the full run down the mountain in real time to see how it was not just bits and pieces but the production was amazing hats off to u guys with the quality
Absolutely loved you guys showing off the downhill skateboarding community!!! Would LOVE to see y’all visit a skate event or even learn how to longboard
Love seeing one of the biggest street skate channels dip a toe into the downhill world to show the street skaters what downhill skateboarding is about! Braille, please release the full raw run with your full reaction! I'd love to see someone on braille get into downhill skating and documenting it! Excellent video and production quality!
You guys are absolutely killing this new editing style and new content style. I love it I love it I love it I Love seeing you guys outside the brailhouse just enjoying life. The production value seems very high you guys are just killing these new series keep him common
I am so stoked you guys got to meet Spud, someone deeply ingrained in the community, but you guys should try to make it out to a big event, like Tepe and Tacos. Imagine this, but over 100 of us dropping in a massive line
Hey guys Downhill skateboarding is a whole big world, racers compete down the biggest hills all over the world. ive been doing it for almost 8 years now and it still shakes me to the core!! Im happy to finally see a downhill episode on the Braille channel, way to go!!
This video is exceptional. The footage, the editing. This video is a VIBE. Though I never managed to actually do it myself, i'm really glad to see downhill longboard get some much-deserved love, especially showing some of the fear and dangers of it!
Amazing content! Thank you for putting our sport out there for the world, been following your content for a long time and it’s an honour! Spud killed it as always 🔥
If you don’t mind, what one did you start first? I’ve never had the chance to really try longboards at all. Don’t even know how they feel on flat just cruising. I have been a street skateboarder for about 14 years now but bombing hills has always been possibly my favorite thing to do. The last two years I’ve been hitting the hills on a penny board! I don’t know what it is but it carves nice and kinda feels like your not even on anything because it’s so light. I love it but I feel like a longboard will feel extremely heavy and awkward to me. Oh, I also noticed that the penny is noticeably more stable than I recall my street decks ever being. I figured it would be worse than street setup. I got up to 30-35mph on the penny before wobbling and definitely don’t get near that on my normal setup. Do the softer wider wheels really give that much stability? I know longboard trucks are a bit different but I figured those tiny penny trucks would wobble more compare to my 8” street trucks.
@@fransk8187 I don’t know if I ever hit a hill I need those for. Not that I couldn’t have utilized them but that I didn’t need them to take a turn. I’m from a smaller farming location though. The land is pretty flat so there isn’t much for sharp turns out here. Amazing strait downhills for speed though.
@@SDsimplelife I only found it because I was riding to the store on my little sister penny one day(didn’t have a board at the time) and said f it lets hit this hill on the way home. Took it out to a bigger hill shortly after and fell In love.
As a downhill skater I love seeing the braille guys out in the hill. Lots of us just kick it on a neighborhood hill for years before we ever do a mountain road.
awesome video and loved the slow motion. Really helped me visualize the positions, steering and control. Wish i had seen this before i got on custom 38 inch aluminum board and wiped out-bad at over 30 mph 9 months ago. no serious injury, luckily. Now i have all my safety gear and obsessed with this awesome sport. it's my "rest day" activity from indoor/outdoor climbing.
I love dh so much I’m so glad you guys are including different disciplines to spotlight. Should’ve kept the raw footy I think a lot of us that are already into it would’ve loved to see his whole run start to finish! Would love to see longboard dancing next maybe?
@@brailleskateboarding also to add some more context Brandon runs like the equivalent of a Braille channel for longboarding. Can’t add enough how much respect I have for people like you guys that give so much to the community. To Braille and Brandon both, never stop spreading the word and sharing information about the sport you guys are skate heroes
This is awesome! This is great exposure for a niche form of skateboarding that often doesn't get the love that street skating does. I've been skating downhill for 10 years now and it's an amazing sport with a fantastic community of people. Spud is definitely in the upper percentile of skill which makes it seem like a very unattainable sport. I'd love to see another video like this that focuses on entry level downhill.
Noiiice! Perfect timing on the vid. I'm from the SF Bay Area but currently up in the PNW. I'm a bit older now and getting back into trying to go faster down the hills on longboards(and film it with the GoPro) I used to live at the bottom of the "9th Avenue run" in SF so I did have pretty decent stand up slides. I do kind of need to re-learn stand up and glove down laid out slides on longboards though. Anyway, rolling down the hills or carving & grinding through the Sk8parks is pretty fun, especially since the weather has finally turned nice and sunny.
As skateboarders all should try all styles of skateboarding as they all have their uniqueness and sense. Street skateboarding, longboarding, surfskating all have similarities and differences, so sick and stoking!!!! 🤙
I've seen a ton of crazy skate stuff, I'm sure we all have, but this really is just nuts. Its simultaneously fascinating and almost uncomfortable to watch. I've bombed some hills and wiped out pretty hard, this would just obliterate you. What a rush. Crazy man.
Yoo more of this! The dh scene needs some love and this is great for us. Go check out a freeride event or a proper race, it’d be sick to see from your perspective
YO! Glad to see y’all are covering more downhill skateboarding stuff. Feel free to hit me up if you want to do some collab content with the rest of the downhill scene in the Bay Area!
It’s interesting to see a downhill video made for non-downhill skaters. At first I was confused by the dark eerie music during the montage at 9:00 . The music choice thematically did not hit the feeling I’d normally get from that kind of video. Then the realization came: the music choice actually fits perfectly. This is how a properly sane person feels watching a downhill skater.
I really miss this sport being part of X-Games. I just accidentally channel surfed to it one day in the late 90s and it hooked me. That's how I ended up seeing the Birdman hit the 900.
I started learning freestyle/dance longboarding this year, shouts out to Hans Wouters! And I picked up a skate board and hit the park now sometimes because of you guys. I don't think bombing hills is my thing, but this was really cool to see!
I've only been skating for 11 months now, but I do lean towards downhill over skateparks. For me, I practice at a local park that has a cemented bike track. Off in the back corner there's a hill with various turns, so I just gradually start further up the hill the more comfortable I feel. So far, the fastest I've gone is 29kms, which i think is 15pmh-ish? :)
I had a junk board from target as my first board as a kid I actually quit skating only to discover longboards in my 20’s My first longboard was a Landyatchz switch 40 double drop concave . I still have it hung up . The video was incredible I’ve been longboarding for a decade and still haven’t had the skills or desire to pass 30 mph it’s scary honestly.
People dont understand me when i says i do downhills.. but i got more trust in my EVO than majority of people and it does make me feel alive. Wierd feeling to explain ❤
Except that just cruiser longboards, it's no where near close to this. Just look up the price of valkyrie trucks. Downhill skating has been around a long time. Longboarding is alot more than just pushing. Don't even try to compare what you do to this.
Claremont is too unrelentingly steep for my friend and I but we rode 64 mm wheels on street decks going down grizzly peak from the Berkeley side to the Claremont/fish ranch rd intersection. At night. We could only flintstone stop with our feet and mostly were on the brakes in that section so we eventually went from grizzly peak further south to skyline /old tunnel rd, or left onto skyline and down the upper part of snake rd.
I stopped street skating to commit to long-boarding around 16yo me and our team got a offer to be the first Victoria Longboard team from landyachtz when they first started making boards in vancouver. In the end we were just high school stoners and the deal fell thru. But we were hitting the hardest hills in victoria. Other longboard teams wouldn’t touch the spots we did. miss thos days
I got a video from up in trinity California of a session down some gnarly hills with 100ft cliffs on side of a team from san fran company. We were deer hunting and these crazy suckers wer bombing some crazy spots
"Why would anyone do this?" Give it a go. Get in touch with your local longboard crew, find a street not too crowded and learn to slide... And before you know it you'll be hooked. You'll start dreaming of sliding corners when you drive, or think about which line you would take. The adrenalin, the sense of freedom, the sheer focus, all of this makes downhill skateboarding a unique and addictive sport. Give it a go ! The worse that could happen is scratched knees if you're just learning how to slide
Interesting to see an amateur skater at this. 11 years is massive. Still, the speed is so much lower than with Poncelet, Hiller, etc. and already you see some difficulties here. Great insight!
I've been bombing Bridges here in South Florida on my Bustin 39 in.Shrike. Nobody clock me so I don't know how fast I was going on the last bridge, just how fast will a set of shark DNA 72 millimeter Wheels spin, because they wouldn't spin any faster. It was such a rush ,next time I'm bombing that bridge with my Bustin dual omo 90 mm pavement gobblers. I'm having a hard time figuring out which skateboard I like most now. I've also heard of some people that are into bombing parking garages multi-story parking garages. They catch the elevator to the top and shoot it to the bottom.
if you don't live near hills you can get an electric longboard and go about 28 mph top speed if u get a decent one which is way faster than most people will ever go on one. I dislocated my shoulder going around 22 so be careful if you get one.
@xylexut2589 You will probably never see that for a few reasons. We tend to skate these massive hills very inconspicuously, and treat it like we're breaking laws although no laws exist because cops will come and shut it down kicking us outta spots. Once the spot is blown there will be more attention to the spot and cops will come more quickly with more opposition seeing us there again. We also won't want signs to tell inexperienced people where to find these runs. Dropping in on a hill like this is a lot like dropping in on the mega ramp- once you drop in there's no stopping until the end of the ride regardless if one isn't skilled enough. The ride only gets more dangerous by the second by the time realizing it's too fast and time to bail. That can end up fatal (and has) to anyone not experienced or equipped to manage making it the whole way. It's very common people who are new to skating will have no guage of how fast or dangerous it is, and noobies will just drop in from the top which makes it instantly a sentence to one of the worst bails. Downhill is different too, these hills are miles long. Getting faster beyond skill, and will have slower and faster sections that changes suddenly. One part might be chill but an instant later you're going 50mph and looking down at a 90-180° turn.
I was actually disappointed with this video! I would have liked to see the full run down the mountain in real time to see how it was not just bits and pieces but the production was amazing hats off to u guys with the quality
Why does Google have multiple people with multiple speeds saying they are all the world record holders for fastest downhill longboard speeds. It’s been like this for years. I knew a long time ago it’s was 92-97 miles an hour or something. google still has multiple names and speeds ranging from 52+ mph stating to be work record holders. The real record holder of 90 mph was just added this year when the record was broken a few years back. Idk think it’s really odd. Google slacking on this so bad.
The one I believe you’re seeing at 52 mph is for a group of 4 people together. Longest train of skaters at that speed. (This was just because Guinness world record was there) We actually do that all of the time with groups as well. It’s just “not counted” cause Guinness doesn’t see it. Lol. Singular skater is 92-97 mph.

I imagine their are signs to watch for longboarders on the popular hills like how some places have deer crossing signs.

The real record holder of 90 mph was just added this year when the record was broken a few years back. Idk think it’s really odd. Google slacking on this so bad.
Dang ya
The one I believe you’re seeing at 52 mph is for a group of 4 people together. Longest train of skaters at that speed. (This was just because Guinness world record was there)
We actually do that all of the time with groups as well. It’s just “not counted” cause Guinness doesn’t see it. Lol. Singular skater is 92-97 mph.
