and Dalua mostly likely beat it in Brazil...of course K-Rimes hasn't had his shot at the record.......yet

Mind you both are going soooooo much faster than 99.9 percent of the skateboarders in the world will ever think of going

kind of looks like a Demonseed to me....wheels are for certain ABEC11 Centrax. Mischo is a big guy but Dalua is a beast

I've been up to 50mph/80kph but that's about my limit, I wasn't scared I'm just not interested in going faster

The one day I decided to do a serious DH day, first run, hit 40 mph. Needless to say I almost s**t my pants that run.

Of course, the next run, I hit 45 mph, stinkbug, and hello sprained wrist!

Since then I haven't gone any faster.

lonboardin there is a point where extra wheelbase is more of a hinderence than a help...I believe the longest WB on a speedboard is about 34" with the bulk of the boards on the market being in the 31-33" area....freeride boards runs 28-32" so there is some overlap

like everything it become more natural the more you do it. Before I broke my ankle I was un-nerved by highspeed turns but since relearning to skate and learning to slide for speed control my comfort level has climbed considerably but since I don't really care to skateboard in leathers my time spent above 40mph is limited
