I hate how falling is so common in skateboarding, but also so embarrassing in public. I wiped out last weekend trying to foot brake coming up to a 4 way intersection after going down a hill. Ate it pretty hard, skinned my hands, shoulder, and knee. Ride home a mile bleeding 💪😀 Just part of the game; way to laugh it off. Nice carving.

Szefie, jaki to model deski? Co patrzę to wygląda mi jak Drop Hammer, a właśnie na kupno tego modelu się zapatruję. Chyba że miałbyś jakiś inny fajny do polecenia
@@sepechasepecha1398 jezdze na Pantheon Trip z Calli III trackami. Nie wiem czy polecam, ale mi pasuje taki setup. Nie znam.Drop Hammer, poguglam sobie o nim. 🛹🤙😉
Bartek, I’m curious what the regulations concerning skateboarding are there in London. I recently, after watching this video, texted my oldest son and suggested we should take a similar cruise around Boston over here in Massachusetts. It’s a short train ride to the city, and I thought it would be a cool experience. To my disappointment I found some Reddit posts about the stringent regulations concerning skateboarding around Boston(essentially that it is prohibited on all public property) I’m sure this is more aimed at the traditional skateboarding done grinding handrails, curbs, benches, doing Ollies over stairs, etc. But to the layman citizen or law enforcement officer, we may automatically belong to that genre just for being on a skateboard. I’m not sure how strongly these prohibitions are enforced, so I guess we will just have to see for ourselves and hope that by being respectful and blending into the pedestrian traffic, we will fly under the radar.
@@joeoconnell4235 we are allowed to use road in same manner as bikes. Police use common sense here and will leave you in peace if you go with traffic and on bike lanes. I think there are some restrictions with electric boards, for sure with scooters. I've seen normal skateboards on the bike lanes, but I can't imagine a long ride on small hard wheels. I'm not sure about Boston. I don't know the local law nor how strict the police are in your city. You need to check it yourself.
Bro, great video. I recently pulled my longboard out of the garage and started riding. I purchased a “white wave longboard” Off Amazon years ago, and never rode much. In the past couple weeks be taken it and my new board out for rides around town, including a 6 mile round trip along the coast and through the next town over. What kind of set up do you have? How long is considered LDP? I have been watching a lot of Landyachtz videos, but I like he juxtaposition of a video like yours with an average guy skating around vs. a hunch of pro skaters doing kick tricks and downhill slides. Keep the videos coming! Thanks.
I’m be word comes to mind when I think of skating-freedom. Absolute flow state; can’t beat the feeling. I’m so glad I found it, albeit in my later 30s. Cruising the streets on a longboard is the most fun workout I’ve ever had. I love going to the local skatepark with my sons too.
Nice example you're setting to others with no helmet. Or are you just too cool for one of those? London drivers give zero fucks to people on bikes let alone long boards. I really wouldn't like to see the damage when you get clipped & you go straight under a car or bus.
@@bartek... So you don't mind kids watching this, then grabbing their board to go out riding but this time without a helmet because they think if you aren't, why should they? I hope you never have this misfortune of seeing a child's head cracked open & then seeing the parents & how much pain they're now in.
@@bittasweetsymphony726 have you tried to look for a job? It's a skill that you need to learn. I've moved to London because it's so easy to find a job here.
For me skateboards are only good for sport / playing around. It's only slightly better than walking if you use it to get around. Too much effort for very little pay off.
@@Alacod19 thats why im longboarding. It's a bit slower than a bike, more convenient and it's good for a sport. Skateboarding (for me) would be just for fun.
@bartek... just joking. My latest video was even longer, but I made it narrated. Anyway, I usually watch the full videos. For those, who like it shorter, 10 minutes or 38 is not a big difference, they switch to the next video in 3 minutes 😉
@@BalkanWalks66I actually like a strong accent and I do care. ATM I struggle with clarity and pronunciation. I have some goals in life, standing slide at 70kmh+ and English 😂
This video was very interesting and exciting. I hope you didn't hurt your leg too much. At that moment, I heard familiar words. Where are you from, Poland, Russia?
I like your videos, bro. Shoot more videos where you ride around the city. If you could make a video of yourself riding a cruiserboard, I would be grateful to you for that. I also really like the way you show different places, by type of subway, shopping malls, etc. I also really like the way you buy coffee and pay for the subway, since I don't live in London, I'm very interested in looking at how your infrastructure works. Your videos cheer me up and I really want to travel on the board too)
it doesn't make sense to longboard on flat ground in a city when having a tail or having your feet over the wheels would make you have so much more control. i don't see why people longboard in cities when cruisers or powell-peralty old school style boards exist. just weird to me.
@@noeonoohno4219 I get your point and you right about manuvaberality, but it's more about energy efficiency and higher speed. On dinghy I'm done after 10km and I'm doing it at the same time as 20km on drop-thru. O bigger Tasseract its better but its high deck and heavier construction makes me tired quicker.
Kudos ...use to skateboard all the way to college and home ...6miles there and another 6 back everyday ......then 15 years latter at age 38 got skateboard pushed it 2 miles and slept for the rest of the day ..lol ....It Hard work even on longboard ...KUDOS
I find this so useful to understand how to navigate different surfaces that are common here in the UK. I'm just starting to skate at 37. I have a dinghy, a drop cat and a ripper, but I've only been confident on smooth surfaces so far. I want to start cruising around my local streets, but I'm scared of the flagstones! Have you considered doing an in-depth tutorial on how to navigate rough terrain?
