Long-distance skateboarder breaks world records

Andrew Andras holds the Guinness World Record for the farthest distance traveled on a skateboard in 24 hours. CNN follows him to Oregon where he attempts to take home a prize in the 10k.

Why the hell would anyone give this a thumbs down?

[@zenborath6275]

They were probably thinking, "Dis, I like!'

[@VinceTibo]

This video is great. The sport is amazing and needs more publicity. The feeling of floating and pushing your limits on 4 wheels is an uncomparable one. It's the same as biking, just more fun.

[@samuelhong4272]

then you eat shit and its all over

[@tommyb261]

Been doing this for 3 years and now just realizing it's a thing

[@theoriginalrabbithole]

Andrew Andras is awesome! His positive energy is infectious and he's a great ambassador for LDP skating.

[@PillarofWind]

skating is my passion I love u guys

[@pierrevalentin8171]

Really nice and humble guy! 🖒Great inspiration for the long distance community

[@manueldelgadillo]

Ok, so this is an old video, but does anyone know what skate tool he uses? Also, what helmet is he using towards the end of the video (the black helmet with the bill). Thanks for any help; I've tried searching for both of these things but I'm having trouble finding them.

[@SinnedNogara]

I think the helmet is a Predator half shell

[@Northstar_J]

saw him at the dutch Ultraskate on yt, super nice guy! Keep pushing ❤️

[@JayBrown-xs9ps]

This is an LDP (long-distance pushing) top mount drop down longboard for specificity's sake, at least for me i don't care if we're called skaters but i don't like being called a skateboarder (i do longboard dancing) as there's a pretty big distinction in what we do and how we ride (though honestly "longboarder" and "longboarding" don't quite roll off the tongue either.). He only says skateboarder because it's easier for most people to recognize it and longboarding is considerably more niche.

[@BadIdeas101]

Oh look a video about skating distance! I wonder if its about andy...yep its about andy

[@beetvalley]

[@darealberrygarcia]

[@ZOMBIE-3-PIN]

what board is that

[@1grommedia715]

Looks like a pantheon but then he's riding don't trip trucks and seismic wheels

[@jaspervanloo9864]

Subsonic La Maquina with a Gbomb DeepDrop bracket and a Don't Trip Poppy truck in the front, and a Gbomb torsiontail in the rear. Wheels are Seismic Blastwaves in DefCon formula (mango 78,5a in front, bubblegum 77a in the rear)

[@SinnedNogara]

Second board is a Subsonic Century I believe.

[@_hawawa4930]

SinnedNogara Yes, with the tail chopped

[@christianpascual4525]

I want to have a skateboard after learning the normal skateboard I will buy a longboard for more comfortable transportation

[@williamwest7008]

Or a cruiser, both are good for transportation

[@aloneboarder]

What deck is he riding @ 1:38?

[@BellaJi]

Subsonic Century 40 I think ( he was in the Subsonic Team in this time )

[@Hellohimynameishatsunemiku]

He looks like maui from moana

[@MarkCranerium]

Are those g-bomb trucks?

[@michrisoft]

Looks like it. Seismic speedvent wheels. Not sure about the deck.

[@eddyeddy8495]

Don't trip Trucks with g bomb brackets

[@DJELKIN]

Классные 🎉😊

[@mamzersdream1]

He can't do a magic flip.

[@zyxsuxbl9441]

It’s called a kick flip now mr Rodney mullen

[@walsh9354]

That's clearly a long board. It's different than a skate board.

[@VinceTibo]

Skateboarding is a huge family of disciplines, it covers street skating, slalom, long distance pushing, long distance pumping, freeride, downhill, pool..... It's a very general term. Almost anything that has a standing platform and 4 wheels is a skateboard

[@shrooman768]

Dylan Walsh Literally.

[@TonyRedgrave1501]

It's CNN. Of course they don't see a difference...

[@JayBrown-xs9ps]

​@@VinceTibono it's not, we longboarders are not skateboarders and there is a clear distinction in how each is used (except in the discipline freestlye), we all skate and are "skaters" but not skateboarders
