  • Take a skateboard, make it longer, add poly-urethane wheels and specialized trucks, add a helmet and gloves with pucks and what do you get? - A 60mph+ method of decending a mountain road as fast as you dare.
    Ryan Farmer took up downhill three years ago after discovering the sport. The sensation it gives you, he says, is as close to that of flying without an airplane. An avid a nature enthusiast, Ryan spends his weekends waking up long before the crack of dawn to make the hike from Huntington Beach an hour to the San Gabriel Mountains
    Getting there early is key. Due to a legal grey-area and the risks involved skating live roads, it's best to get in as many runs as possible before the road is too heavily trafficked.
    We'll let Ryan explain the rest.

    People are so quick to judge. They tell me "you're going to hurt yourself" or "It's not you I'm worried about, it's cars". I just want to say in an extremely sarcastic manner: "No, really? There're cars on roads? Also, I consider myself impervious to all forms of injury and invincible even to death." Everyone who tells you not to longboard simply wasn't there. They don't understand that I've walked up the sketchy sections 30 times each, slightly higher each time. They don't know the hours I've put in learning my skills, tuning my setup, watching the apex, understanding traction. I guess their punishment is they never get to experience that surreal feeling about which Ryan talks.

      Matt Garelli yes there is so much that goes in to it all. So many hours. So much falling. So much walking.

    I've finally found out why I enjoy this so so much, and it's as you said, "It's as close to flying as you can get".

    This is how it feels to climb mountains. No matter how difficult, risky, when we get done we say "Let's do it again!"

    1:23 ' It's as close as flying as anyone could do without an airplane' surrreee.
    Skydiving, wingsuit, proximity flying, paragliding, speedflying, hang gliding, Kitesurfing are all a bit closer I think.
