ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

I was just wondering what peoples scariest longboarding experiences were. Mine was just then, I was going down this hill in my neighbors hood, I hadn't gone from the top before because it gets really steep at the top, I started to go from the very top, and I could do it. I had been turning left when I got to the end of the hill this whole time, and when I went from the top I just made the turn, so I thought I would go right, I started to turn right, but because my wheels are super coned they always turn left so my board began to fight me and I got massive speedwobbles, I was just about to fall when I stood up and beat the wobbles. 
Anyway that was my scariest experience (so far), what are yours?

Pretty much getting molested by a fat, hairy, crazy woman with a fetish for skateboarders whilst carrying my board on the train, the A line in Perth attracts some real freaks

skating tight and the guy leading the pack decided to airbrake in the middle of the road cuasing everyone else to brake away, both people including myself(i was at the back) went right towards the middle line of the road rubbed wheels cause i caught up to the middle guy, slammed the ground as i watched two cars coming for as i was sliding across the road in the other lane, good times
Haha fail

That time I was taken to see Bruno by my parents.

 

But it would have been when I got the wobs at 75km/h.  I was wearing a leather jacket, jeans, helmet and gloves, but I was a nice jacket and I didn't want it hurt.

Typical Skittles comment there ;)

goin down a local hill came round a blind bend at 70kmph (50km zone) and what do ya know there were 2 trucks passing each other doin about 40km and i shat my jocks coz i was thinking i might hav to go between them but i ended up goin around them when they passed holly shit that was the scariest moment of my LIFE!! 

-doing 60kph

-still pretty inexperienced

-get insane wobbles

-try to throw out a slide

-almost get highsided 

Got wobbs doing 80K on a hill at the back of brisbane, was in a shirt and shorts only wearing a my full face, gloves and knee pads.
pushing into mount panorama only learning to footbreak a few days before...
Hitting a reflector going down the Putty Rd in full tuck with oncoming traffic close ahead. Not happy times.
Group bombing at night and at the fastest part of the hill a dude panics with a dog on a big lead in the middle of the road. Sketchy
