On Board with Louis Pilloni

[@dennistanner6512]

My left ear enjoyed this.

[@Gma7788]

This landwave is enormous. 😮

[@ROFLitsJobe]

This is the best Longboarding movie i have seen this year. Digging the mic'd up riders, and the idea of following him in a car as he narrates is really smooth. This was perfect.

[@crackin2000]

this is one of the most helpfull videos on you tube we need more instructive videos thanx

[@crxtodd16]

Louis is such a kickass dude. All around down to earth guy, super awesome to skate with....and of course, he's damn good at skating. Sweet vid.

[@worldsport1644]

Awesome video. Great shot at 1:07

[@mingusfan]

This man clearly knows what it's all about. Amen to his sentiment at the end.

[@tatewick5176]

Such an awesome guy

[@MrKoffdrop]

videos like this get me stoked to skate Louis is an amazing skater

[@chrometrees]

Hey Louie it's me Joey with Go Longboarding Day! This is sick. Thanks EG for linking me to this! This just changed my view on downhill bombing. Time to go practice!

[@WhoIsBishop]

Yeah Louis! your 360s are so clean and smooth.

[@SHADOWSHUFFLER911]

I love his style its so relaxed. makes it look easy

[@kilometer780]

ahahh rides like a beast and narrates the entire time! that takes skill!

[@iSkateLongboards]

This is probably my favorite video ever

[@CTLongboarding]

more louis videos please!!!! we love seeing him skate!!! ill buy your boards!!!

[@wutdafreak]

finally.... louie has come back on youtube *Thumbs up*

[@erich1394]

This downhill has an upbeat infomercial vibe. You're like the Billy Mays of freeriding.

[@Houdini116]

I'm pretty sure that board is the Arbor Hybrid Gt. The board Kody noble used in that San Francisco video.

[@kai_00123]

@EinYeTi I'd stick with the 70mm's simply because it works with tons of free ride boards. 70mm is like the happy medium. Offset meaning the core is off-center, being slightly more towards the inside of the wheel.

[@sodajr]

Oh my god, I want that board!!! DH with kicktails are where it's at!

[@SaltyWooHoo]

The video edit was sick. The concept of narrating while freeriding is sick. The follow cam in the car is sick. (How did you guys mount the camera to get such a stable shot?) The skating is sick. THIS IS FCKING SICK! One of the best skate videos I've seen!

[@KjWa13]

louis is so bad ass no matter who he rides for he is just epic and so chill :)

[@polvoabada]

awesome riding man great run!!

[@kai_00123]

@EinYeTi They look like Sector9 Race Formulas. 70mm, 80a, with a sharp lip and is offset. Usually go for about $40 in most online longboard shops.

[@blackhoods1984]

@powking86 no it doesnt look close at the end. its not a vugenhaussen nor is the tail bolted on. i have a chopped voodoo xl with a kicktail bolted onto it.

[@11ditto11]

@SnoMan1818 you should start by trying to make deeper and more charged carving. it also depends on how loose your trucks are + if your wheels have sharp edges ( not been broken in yet) it'll be more harder for you to slide. When you're carving you'll feel that in some point the wheels stop having contact with floor on that moment you'll realize your almost sliding after you get the idea of what it is it's just using the same science but trying to focus on the contact between wheels and floor.

[@ski2d]

i think its a downhill division daisy... with a pre-production run or an alternate graphic.

[@Mongiloyd]

Sector 9 Racing Formula 70mm 80a, not sure about the 70mm but since its a top mount I assume they are.

[@ParallelCarving]

One of the best riders out there! sick vid!

[@ozyy22]

i suggest to get a baseplate at like 44 degrees and get some VENOM SHR bushings and do a board side 91 red and road side 88 sea foam. its a really good combo for fast downhill and good freeride. just adjust the tighnest and ur good.

[@drummastikz]

'i dont know what i was gonna say.. i just love skating' haha. Love it!

[@EinYeTi]

@SummerConspiracy Yea I was thinking they look most like the 70mm or the 73mm but the 70's have a 50mm contact patch as opposed to the 73's with a 40mm so idk which would have been better for freeride as seen in the video. what do you mean by offset?

[@11ditto11]

@SnoMan1818 well you should firstly start by using harder wheels since the softer they are the more gripper they're ofc. In my opinion otangs are one of the best wheels for longboarding around. I'd advise you to get 86 A wheels, those are the harder available in otang variety stimulus are made for free ride and sliding. You can always look for slide guides at youtube. If you need to know about anything else send me a pm . Peace

[@Bitteroyster]

ya but set-up does help a lot. been trying to slide for a year now, finding it really difficult.

[@ThaBigBassTheory]

I think Louis is riding a proto daisy from the new 2012 downhill division, correct me if im wrong.

[@LongRangeBullet]

Man, this guy is crazy, but full of energy. I hope 1 day I'll be able to skate as good as him.

[@markusg.2379]

10 years later ... got that good? ;)

[@MyWoody26]

@robotrock909 No I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do that. My guess is the first bit and the bit where the car bumps up would be him talking properly and the rest recorded after and edited in.

[@Aqualungs86]

James kelly's arbor signature model, vagun hausen. What trucks and bushing set-up does louie ride? Dude you jumped my car! hahahha

[@InDaClub717]

@TheZC13 practice practice ;). No seriously, PRACTICE like crazy. Usually I push uphill or anywhere switch, just to get experience. Lately I've committed full days to riding switch, doing slides, carving, even just grabbing rail and lightly bombing and tucking. It's REALLY tough at first, but after a month or three, you'll notice a LOT of growth. Also, you'll want a bidirectional board (symmetrical length-wise) so as to get those switch 180's to regular. Makes it more fun :)

[@fear4maplesea]

That speed is crazy.

[@bigeggmayo123]

he make it look so easy

[@njborn5000]

What amazes me is the wheels on the board don't get flat spots in them.

[@MrVigel]

@oscarman2 suction mount on the hood, and its the super shaka mold with his own cut i believe

[@jsj1667]

Sick riding! Respect!

[@williamtarr1086]

is that the daisy just without the same graphic

[@crbndecay22]

@BNomo1 I saw a longboard shaped like a sector 9 roxanne with the carbonite graphics on the bottom

[@Smalls]

this video is so sick. Louis Im glad to see your enjoying sector9, I still watch your videos from loaded. But good to see you still spread the stoke.

[@party_boy69]

so how did they do the narration without getting wind noise? did they voice over and match his lip movements?

[@DgangaJ]

Maybe 1/5 roads can even possibly be skated down here, but there are hills literally everywhere, so

[@whitey227]

I'm pretty sure he's riding the daisy. Even though it doesn't have the daisy's graphic it has the tail. Also this was the top video when i searched sector 9 daisy. I'm not 100% sure so don't get mad at me if i'm wrong haha.

[@oscar_perry]

how was the camera mounted to get such a good shot? oh and what board

[@BobtheBaRRicadE]

Is that the Sector9 Downhill Division "Daisy" board???

[@blackhoods1984]

@powking86 thats not a vugenhaussen but i wish i knew what it was. new sector 9 or arbor?

[@andrewinoregon]

So today while longboarding me and my buddy did a check in a driveway at this rich neighborhood, and coming out of the driveway back onto to road we were stopped short by a hummer and almost hit it. We said we were sorry and waved, then he pulled into the driveway we just shot out of. AWKWARD. and we got bitched out for doing that. but, we hit the feature!!!! THANKS

[@wasid13]

Sector 9 DH Daisy (Carbonite graphic)... caliber trucks and 72os raceforms?

[@reevolutionable]

Thats a beautiful hill :) I just love skating :)

[@ChadwickRyan]

"I just love skating, all kinds man, just get on your board, ride down a hill, grind a bank, snap an ollie... skateboard"

[@gn8771]

@Houdini116 definitely not. it is a louis prototype but it uses the super shaka mold. Louis helped create the super shaka and just created this from it basically that's all i know and everything you know is wrong.

[@elittle1997]

did they shorten the kicktail on the released daisy? it looks smaller than in this

[@fr0zdify]

man those switch stand up slides are crazy

[@wiannel6025]

WOOOW kwel, what wheels arre those??

[@ChocolateLemonss]

what is that deck? it looks so cool

[@SnoMan1818]

@cabeSR1234 i get like sideways curves but then i just keep going right (im goofy btw) its like i carve hard and its like a hard turn i cant get the full 180 im at a 90 degree turn right now... also should i get different wheels because right now i have 70mm 75a Nineball Wheels.. im pretty new to this whole thing i got my first and only board on christmas.. its 42 inches but its a surfboard shape idk if that matters with sliding but i was wondering if i should get a 9 star type of construction

[@frankiej8780]

The best from Sector 9.

[@fizzzzaa1]

No, then it would be like any other video. He just also happens to say one of the most inspirational quotes in longboarding history and the end.

[@PercyBowls]

Louis ftw. S9 represent! What deck is that? The graphic looks like the vugenhousin but the shape Is different. Looks dope as hell anyway

[@betterwithbo]

Does anyone remember seeing this but with the view from the follow car the whole time? Is that a different vid?

[@wyllmRox]

@Dom3y does that apply to more than just longboarding? .... intense

[@iskertberd8541]

This video does not capture just how crazy steep and how f'ed the pavement is, Louie kills it!

[@elittle1997]

@ChCreation i feel like this would be the tutorial for a video game, like how to skate paths

[@BananaWeedTurtle]

Speed wobbles are all in the rider my friend (till you reach insane speeds i guess) my best advice is to practice, and practice again; perhaps you can change the bushings to some harder barrels from venom but I do not suggest tightening your trucks, loose trucks save lives. Another thing that causes wobbles, beside the rider over correcting at higher speeds because the trucks react alot more at when going fast, is a flexy deck, if your board has too much flex it's not the best for DH.

[@TheSonicqwerty]

What is this song playing in the background? By the way awesome video!

[@kbelcher95]

"DUDE thats my car dont do that!!" immediately does it again.. haha!

[@DHdays]

Wonder how many more times people are gonna ask what board that is?

[@notoriousmlv]

@powking86 pretty sure it's not bolted on

[@theoryg]

That was awesome but I wonder just how long the run was in miles?

[@McAdamskinsky]

@InDaClub717 alright thats pretty dope ill try it once i get my board!!

[@Bitteroyster]

@sector9media dude what wheels are those looks like your sliding on air.

[@RGuiskate]

awesome! with what camera is this shot?

[@mingusfan]

"Be careful with that, alright?... Well let's bomb this! Come on, let's do this! Let's get this thing!!!"

[@ObiBongKenobii]

is that the daisy?

[@11ditto11]

@Hoiz28 abec 11 72 A wheels.. the thing is that if he doesnt have understood how slide works it'll be harder to get the idea of how to slide.

[@markusg.2379]

great stuff - even today

[@ShamGod3000]

"Get on your board, ride down a hill, grind a bank, snap an ollie. Skateboard." i Love that Quote

[@codocodocodo1]

[@frejgun]

[@zpirryz]

Can someone tell me the name of the longboard he is using?

[@Morfproductionsco]

Sector 9 Daisy, its new for the 2012 line-up.

[@666freak999]

hey, fellow longboarders, what deck is he riding?

[@BNomo1]

the graphic on the board is the same as the sector9 carbonite deck, but it isnt the carbonite. sector 9 can you please tell me what this deck is? thumbs up so s9 will see this

[@Aqualungs86]
