ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

New to longboarding! (Brisbane)

So finally I got my first longboard!

She is so pretty!

 

The person who started teaching my to longboard moved back to Melbourne, very soon after he started teaching me.

So now I have no one to teach me! Hopefully I will get to meet up with some awesome people from here, who can give me lots of tips and hints and a whole lot of confidence!

 

My board is The Purple Modra by Goldcoast Longboards.

-The Dart Board
-Dimensions: 44" x 10"
-25" Wheel Base
-Kicktail
-7 Ply Canadian Maple
-Century 7" Reverse Pivot Trucks
-70mm 83a Shred Boot Wheels
-ABEC 7 Bearings With Teflon™
-Printed Grip Tape

Hey Jack,

 

I go to QUT too.

 

I am very very very new to longboarding.

So I use my board to commute at the moment.

 

Too scared to try anything else yet, I have no idea what I am doing and don't want to do anything too risky by myself.

 

I can't this weekend, as I will be studying for an exam I have on Monday. (And have a game of soccer to play.)

get a helmet and pads and we'll teach you to slide, then you can tackle any hill!

I have a helmet and wrist guards. Just need new knee and elbow pads, because my little bro borrowed them and left them somewhere :S
