I love skating.. any of you guys into boarding? I haven't been able to do it the past few weeks 'cause my leg has been pretty messed up but once I'm better I'm gonna be back to doin' it every day again.

Yeah stopping is sometimes a problem but you can carve if you want to go slower and just bail if you ever really need to stop. I haven't really fallen while boarding in a long time and the worst injury I ever got was from skitching.. I fractured my pelvis.. lol. Needless to say I haven't tried to hold onto any cars to see how fast I can go on a tech deck since then.. and it was about 40 mph (driver didn't hear me telling him I'd reached my limit) Stopping's always a problem though I just worry about it when it's happening rather than worry about it when I'm going downhill. I don't really want to find my limit on a longboard though since I don't ever wear any gear while I'm skating.
