Hey Tweeze that is a cool video, those girls have skills and are having a blast:-)
Years ago my buddies and I , on the big island used to skateboard a giant slalom on a high mountain road. We would drive up with a cooler in the back of my VW beachbuggy. Three of us would ride while one could rest and drive. the run was about three miles long and took lots of turning in parts to keep the speed down to a survivable number in case of a wreck or the need to bail out on the side of the road.
One time we were resting at the side about mid way down, when we heard a weird high pitched sound coming down from above. Soon two young guys came blasting by at unbelievable speed. Just bombing the hill, something we had never done or really even thought too much about trying. they had slippers on their hands for brakes. these we saw at the bottom of the hill completely worn thru from being dragged.
Somehow our cautious geezer runs never seemed the same after that.
Damned young guns (thats meant in green)

Cheers Richard
