Longboarding: Mt Ruapehu Freeride

The Legendary folks at Whakapapa closed the road going up the mountain for us to skateboard down.
So we shredded the hell out of it.
Big thanks to Scott Hayes for being an awesome dude!

[@onlysems]

you guys are my biggest inspiration for longboarding

[@CrunchieLongboarding]

people like you are the reason i make videos

[@colinwrye]

EverLast48 same here

[@BoulderBoulder_]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU

[@TheSkrillexbeast]

Hey crunchie! Just tackled my first 45 mph hill. Bout a 7 minute ride solid. Just want to say, you guys are huge inspiration, and why ive been stepping up so hard. After a long a road ive finished my first board! Caliber 44° o-tang in heats, s9 faultline. It is a dream. But just wanted to shout out, and say thanks for the videos!! You guys are literally doing what I love the most. Long, downhill, group rides. Nothing quite like that energy. Keep it up, and ride hard!!!!

[@CrunchieLongboarding]

Cheers man! Thats what I love too! and hearing about you guys getting stoked on sick hills!

[@TheSkrillexbeast]

Thanks man! Our local scene is really blowing up, and after seeing all the different cultures and areas to board, I cannot wait to travel and experience all thats out there to shred! Keep the vids comin !! ;)

[@225ell]

Reason I just started boarding is videos like this, thanks for making them. Keep it up

[@Alladiings]

the music and area you guys ride in make you look like some futuristic tribe. "The gods of speed have been flying over the land for hundreds of years.." type of shit

[@nobodyknows6280]

The gods of speed don't fly they ride boards

[@DeepSkyObserver115]

I think this is where The Lord of the Rings was shot.

[@polarbear242]

"One doesn't simply longboard into mordor."

[@mileskeeton1812]

This just gets my heart racing watching it it looks so much More gnarly than free rides of Mary hill and stuff like that 100% raw

[@MrPotatoMan]

I started watching your videos a few months ago. Everything was on a recommendation from KZbin, but now every time I look give me the courage to skate and not give up. Thanks for these amazing videos. New subscriber. I dream of having my channel power as great as this.

[@wes4652]

+Purekrazy2x plays Drop thru's are good for downhill, they just don't have enough turn radius as top mounts

Epic run. You guys look casual doing that as if it's as easy as riding a bicycle or driving a car at that speed.

[@CrunchieLongboarding]

Because thats how it feels to us

[@Cthorlhu]

Crunchie I'm just starting into longboarding but I'm on the flat praries. I envy those "hills" you get to play on.

[@robertgouff2650]
