OR you can just footbrake. A lot. You'll be fine. Footbrake for life etc, etc...
You can always just bail if you feel that it's a bit too much.
Bro my only real shutdown is a hands down toeside, had to emergency use it tonight haha, practice not going 180 and going a bit faster and you should be good :)
More to the point is being able to shutdown slide essential. I can do handsdown 180's but they don't really drop speed too much. I can footbrake from about 20km/h, maybe a little more and can carve, so it depends how fast you guys normally go and how steep the runs are? And I'm fine to stay on the board and not hit anything.
Not colliding with a bus or taxi and dying is one particular skill. Slightly related to this are the ability to stay on your board, control your speed and emergency stop if necessary. If you can't, don't turn up until you can.
How experienced should you be before rocking up? Like any particular skills you should know well that are neccessary?
can i just turn up oneday and longboard with the squad?
Nice dude! All my mates are so surprised how much I got into it but I just love it so much. Yeah pintails aren't great for downhill but they're allright if you're set up properly, they can be a bitch to slide though. You have trucks and wheels though so if you wanna grab a freeride/DH deck it shouldn't cost that much by itself (especially second hand).
