Hi all... Yeah I am a goofy mongo and proud of it... You know it was always mongo style in the beginnings and in the cool 80's, then with the intro of freestyle sk8rs & popsticle boards in the 90's it changed everything. It seems to have stuck and the young crew are non the wiser about correct pushing...
I prefer to push & pull rather than a puller!!!

either that or we'd actually have to have a mongo nontest race...eg: all turn up to one hillclimb track etc...and unduke it out for the upside down crown of the mongo king...

or....the gps thing...and video.

footbreaking fun and games.

anyone else? run a nontest and crown a nonking of the mongos?

(i realise how silly this truly sounds, i just thought it'd be funny.)

i reckon we should have a "non-test" where the entry is a mongo push and brake...see who is "non-test" king of the mongos....

hahahaha...wait....

True blue mongo here.
Mongo kick starts,when you get them going you fly out like a dog out of the box.I foot brake both ways and found it hard to learn to do it with the rear foot.Feels way better at speed though compared to the front method.Need to keep practicing though to get my eye in at speed,the body can do it no worries its the mental side that needs work.
