[@trapfanthom8538]

Thank you guys for the nice comments! hopeully I have a speedy recovery so I can keep making content for you guys. stay safe yall.

[@ssslade7052]

hey man, just in case, i had my spill on friday cuz off my meepo hurricane death wobbles too! anywho, last night i strapped aloe vera to my road rash and noticed the best recovery thus far, you may already know this, but just in case id do this overnight. watching that fall made me relive my spill 😔

[@Pattower]

[@stevemuzak8526]

I saw that video reuploaded everywhere. It was a nasty fall. That's why we always bend our knees.

[@ethandambrosio]

Same thing happened to me on my meepo hurricane, ended up tearing a tendon in my knee. Hope you recover quickly

[@johnphillip2566]

Be more careful? They have full Face helmets on. 😂

[@casperonacid_main]

I felt this so much. I took a flight at 25mph once. Concussion, broke both wrist, elbow looked like a basketball, skin missing from everywhere, a giant hole in my knee.... Ended up walking home all dazed and confused and never found my board. I always skate with a friend now. Hoping for speedy recovery for your bro!

[@way2comfortable698]

Lmao never found it?!

[@casperonacid_main]

@@way2comfortable698 haha nope had to buy a new one.

[@spectrofreak9988]

I just crashed at 25 mph as well. I was covered in road rash and in so much pain I just wanted to go home and didn't even think to go to the hospital. A day later I gave in and went to urgent care, where I found out I broke my wrist and my elbow, and also tore my TFCC ligament. I still feel so sick thinking about that crash, it was the worst pain of my life.

[@evankulper]

Wow, that's crazy. I hope you're doing better now. I crashed at 25 and somehow only hit my helmet and slid on it. The only injury I got was a small patch of road rash.

[@vincenzovieri3743]

Be careful man. I bought a boasted board 2019 and I was shocked when people were saying they road 30 or plus even 20mph because anything 13mph is terrifying. It’s scary because if u fall at that speed u can break a limb or as u stated “concussion” it’s so scary. I don’t belive most people because my board was steady smooth road was perfect but I knew any thing that happens I could break… people don’t realize it doesn’t take much speed on these things and if u fall at those speeds no protection ur gonna be scarred some way around. Glad ur better and I hope ur comment puts things in perspective . I ate shhh at 17mph and if it was for mmm hoodies and snowboard jacket I’d probably broke my back. It was one of the most painful experiences of my life. These boards are extremely fun but they must be used with caution. Enjoy the ride have a blast just don’t Rick ur health…

[@aveave2328]

It is amazing how instant you handle the situation at hand. You instantly threw your board and ran, props to you 👍

[@thomasmurphy3570]

dang man, hope he fully recovered from this. I've definitely learned that if something feels sketchy.. probably best to pull back and not do it. I learned that the hard way an ate it going around 35mph on an euc a few years ago. Props for promoting wearing gear!

[@ArizonaJewell]

As soon as I saw the accident was caused by speed wobbles, I immediately knew the hurricane was going to be the accident board. It’s the only one with double kingpin trucks, which are WAY more prone to speed wobbles. This is why I don’t like boards with DKP trucks. IMO they aren’t very well suited to esk8, especially on boards with a dramatic amount of power like all the AT boards on the market right now (ownboard AT, wowgo AT2, verreal RS, backfire hammer, meepo hurricane, exway atlas, etc.). They’re good for slower boards if you want a board for carving, but personally I really wish that esk8 companies would stop putting them on their most powerful boards. Ownboard switched to TKP trucks for the Zeus and Zeus pro which I’m really happy to see, I just wish that more companies would follow in their footsteps. Like, I run the trucks on my modded zealot SUPER loose, and even I don’t like DKP trucks. I have the orange (softest) orangatang nipples bushings on the zealot’s trucks, and I’m able to remain stable at 28mph on it, but that being said I’ve never felt comfortable skating a DKP board. Wishing you a quick recovery, hope to see you back on a board soon! Super glad to see you had the common sense to gear up when skating, we’ve lost way too many esk8ers because they didn’t wear a helmet.

[@qisenchi5668]

yes dkp is more for carving not really for speed, however its way more fun than traditional rkp. It's about the bushing that you are using on the dkp, toss some riptide performance bushing on it will make a huge difference, plus with an additional 165 65mm race wheels would be hella stable during high speed. I topped my board out at 36mph with no speed wabble at all with riptide 93/96 and 65mm racewheels.

[@ESKATEUK]

Absolutely nothing to do with the DKP and much more to do with the fact he was standing with dead straight legs.

[@dgor.1266]

Sorry bro I know that feeling, I wish your brother a very fast recovery and healing, you guys bring us great videos and we all know how dangerous it could be hopefully we can all learn thanks to your video, we don't have to max speed when we know these boards could hit 30+mph. You do this so we could know thank you and your brother. Ride safe and secure all the time. I'm looking forward to seeing you guys soon heal and recover bro.

[@medinavictor85]

I watched the video and instantly felt the fear your brother felt. I've had falls just like this before, but never at such high speeds. Be safe out there guys. Well wishes to you both

[@miracle323]

I hope he recovers quickly! I just had a fall on the Hurricane (speed wobbles), landed on right shoulder, arm in sling, torn ligaments, bruised ribs, etc., so much pain. Still an awesome board though!

[@RockHeroBand]

Yall need to tighten the trucks up or learn to ride.. My landyat evo from 2010 is so tight in the trucks people don't like it but I love it. never any problem with speed wobble. hurricane is basically the same model but with power.

[@alexanderpopik6780]

@@RockHeroBand yeah I've been a long time longboarder and skater and like never get speed wobbles even on really loose trucks. But I also have built up the muscles alot that help keep it from wobbling

[@Chobutek]

@@alexanderpopik6780 Well, I thought the same until I hit a pothole on a Hurricane in 45km/h :D It can get wobbly really fast on the DKP trucks. Luckily I wore my 186 killer knee pads I use for bowl so I went full knee slide and ended up with just a few bruises... But the top speed on the Hurricane is not a comfortable speed to go on the DKP trucks.

[@jahkgdm]

Over 20 mph & I crouch down low to avoid speed wobbles and if I do crash, can try and roll out of it.

[@Goomba_N64]

I'm still recovering months after breaking my ankle in half on an electric skateboard just the temmo but it was fast enough to do that damage. Also after watching the video that's exactly how I fell too..good thing his ankle didn't break as well. Be careful guys.

[@Goomba_N64]

@@dubbbkb I really appreciate it! Thank you I'm almost walking without pain so almost there!:)

[@TheTanelChannel]

My biggest injury has been forgetting a hole on my daily route (unsealed pavement from the city after a cable job) and slamming front wheels into it.. went flying and the wierdest injury that never really has recovered.. my foot.. I sprained the foot somehow bad so all the ligaments near the toes got hard swollen, had a cast, took like 1-2 months until I could have weight on the foot and walk un-assisted and then about half a year to get the swelling down.. now I still sometimes feel discomfort at times but only a few times a year when I feel like I need to slow my walking pace as I get wierd pain lol... no protection could have helped that kind of injury although I do member I had sneakers on with thin underside.. and I guess I slammed it hard into the pavement. All im praying is that I can still ride in my 70-s lol, I can deal with the small amount of discomfort.

[@TheTanelChannel]

Ok dude the video production on your videos is out of this world good, very well setup and great head to heads. I hope you guys get sent all sort of boards out there so you can put them on the line. Also I think you both should now be wearing protection for these test videos :P always can ride chill without gear but if you gonna push boards, review.. and you have money for gear, get teh safetey gear for both of u :P

[@jraffy]

Remember to keep your trucks super super tight if doing high speeds! Wishing a speedy recovery.

[@jimzplace]

Dude, Im glad he will be ok, I took a wobble crash on the hurricane and woke up naked in an ambulance on the way to a trama center. The meepo is pretty fast... Becareful.

[@MeepoElectricSkateboard]

What an amazing comparison video! I am sorry to see what happened to your brother, but we hope he will get well soon!

[@siqthepunk]

Meepo should learn from ownboard, they put a more stable trucks, in a high performance board. And i am glad nowdays almost all the company get rid off the DKP (death king pin) trucks and replace it to TKP.

Omg!! You guys gotta be more careful! Watch out for those speed wobbles at high speeds. Bend those knees!! Don't be so stiff and leaning forward, not a good stance. Sick video though!!

[@shanedottie]

Speed wobbles gotta be addressed right when they start

[@justinlesperance3546]

The day I got my backfire G3 I didn't attempt to go full speed on it because I was testing if my rear and front trucks were adjusted to my weight and tight enough where I could still maneuver and not get speed wobbles. But in this case he is using DKP trucks kinda sketchy going top speed even with proper stance. I tried it out on my friend metro board x.

[@kevinstammen2671]

@@shanedottie how do you address them

[@realNikoCousin]

Found the one hole in my neighborhood and hit it with my voyager. I hated that deck so bad. The height and lack of concave. I had crappy pads but also spilled almost the exact same way and broke my foot. Sold my voyager right after and haven’t ridden esk8 since. I healed and got over it. I picked up euc (v12ht) and it’s ok but not as cool as esk8. I just ordered an interstellar 2.0 to itch my scratch. I was just reminded that I made a video about the voyager a year ago where I basically predict such a fall on the voyager.

[@TheRobincanuck]

We need to start putting cap on the speed of these Boards. Especially on double kingpin trucks

[@dgor.1266]

I think 30mph should be the max anything after is an accident waiting to happen

Such a great video! amazing comparison. Meepo really outdone themselves indeed! Such a pity for your brother, damn. Hard fall! Hope he's recovering well. Wish him the best amigo!

[@gavinzooms]

I saw this before my incident (broken clavicle after my zealot s cut out at 10% and threw me off) and now this hurts just watching the end. This will definitely steer me from buying an original Hurricane, as the Ultra actually allows you to get a TKP over DKP. I’m a speed demon, but I wanna play it as safe as possible when going fast. So I’ll either go with the Hurricane Ultra, Zeus Pro, or Atlas X1 which all provide TKP. Thanks for the video though man!

[@MinerMends]

I am getting the hurricane next week. Do you think wearing a full face helmet, leather motorcycle jacket + leather pants is a good solution? I don’t anticipate in falling but it may happen. Was also going to wear gloves. I ride motorcycles so I already got gear. Sorry about your brother hope he gets better!

[@DruMarr]

Same I ride motorcycles too, it really all depends on how confident you feel on electric skateboards in general. I’ve been riding for 3 years, and have had the hurricane for 8 months. I feel extremely comfortable and safe on pneumatics wheels, so since this test was on street I went ahead and threw on my nobleman gear. Every other regular ride though I just use my half shell helmet, because with my pneumatics I never lose traction and speed wobbles don’t exist going max speed. I would say of course on your first couple of rides because it’s level of power can be scary at first, but afterwards you crave it :)

[@loveforalllove2173]

Wear gloves as well , and get elbowForearm padding insert for the jacket. When you fall you fall forward and if it’s fast enough you’ll smash to the ground without reacting and break something , but slow you put your hand out and brace the fall instinctively. Gloves help your hands not get tucked up , and the forearm insert is when you slide you’ll be sliding on that part and it’ll prevent it from getting fucked up. One can get a motorcycle jacket for around $200 for a nice one , it’ll have air flow all around it , padding , thick fabric for skid protection, and look really cool too.

[@MinerMends]

@@DruMarr Oh I finally got it. I went about 25 and got speed wobbles on the stock pneumatics which is weird. Do you have stock everything?

Clavicle fractures are very common on those high speed sports, i fractured my clavicle in the same spot as your brother this year, i was riding in my bike in late night, so the streets wasn't look very clear, and i got crashed with a black dog in fornt of my way, and i couldn't wach him be cuz he was so camouflaged with the dark of the night, and for sure i was at the same speed as you guys, and i literally flew when i got crashed with this dog (was my fault for not noticed him, but whatever... the owners should not leave their dogs like that at those hours... idk) so, in 2 months my clavicule was better, so i started practicing skateboarding. After that accident happened to me, im not sure why, but i wanted to try a diferent sport, and here i am, 7 moths and still improving on my ollies

[@crg2006]

I fell off my meepo while pulling my friend we were going 25 and all I can say is thank God I have no brain damage because I wasn't wearing a helmet and when I fell I landed just like him accept I slid bounced up and flipped. My shoulder was fine but my elbow shoulder and knees had the skin torn off of them. So I just went home and cleaned up and took a shower and put neo sporn on all of my wounds. But dude breaks a shoulder and handles that shit way better than me. Hope he has a good recovery.

[@christianmarmol3230]

He fell because as soon as he got comfortable at top speed, he stood straight up and didn't keep pressure on the front end. It's a rookie mistake but it happens to almost everyone. Speedy recovery and make sure to do rotator cuff exercises everyday for at least 5 min
