Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 I've tried this before, great fun but painful trying to stop in time!! Link to post Share on other sites
wakaran 1 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 That looks like fun. Where did you try that TB? Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 back home. I used to get to do a lot of these cool outdoor sports with my job as a youth worker in a high school, so every Thursday I'd take a group of kids out with an Outdoor Ed. Instructor and we'd go and do various activities such as this, mountain biking, skiing, Gorge walking, Coasteering.....I miss those Thursday's!! I'm no place in the league of those guys though, stopping is a problem Link to post Share on other sites
mitchpee 10 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Jynxx, when I come to Europe I will have to bring my longboard and skate all the way to Bavaria. TB, Mountain boarding is cool real fun way to pass the time in the summer. My one friend made me do a backflip once and landed on my side so I am not too keen on them anymore. I'll stick to mountain biking Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 haha.....yeah I def wouldn't try that!! I was able to turn and go down the hill, although tight turns were difficult...as I mentioned before, stopping was a major worry for me!! Link to post Share on other sites
