    Would you take a longboard to a bowl? I wanna try carving on the sides. it doesn't seem to be limited to trickboards. My board isn't that long either.

    Not being a skater I wouldn't know for sure, but I wouldn't try it*. At the very least it would be really awkward trying to navigate that long wheelbase around the curved surface.

    *Okay I take that back, I probably would try it :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: but at very low intensity at first to make sure I wasn't going to kill myself.

    depends on the length of the board. i probably wouldn't, but i've seen it done. just go and try it, probably when no one is there. and, i hate to sound like my mother, but wear a helmet.
