Deepest Darkest Cymru - 80mph/130kph on a street luge (4K)

- on the 21st July 2019 I achieved what I didn't think was possible in the UK: more than 80mph/130kph on my street luge down a busy open mountain pass in northern Wales. is this an unofficial national record? Maybe!
speeds were validated on 2 separate Gopro Hero's with GPS Telemetry, 1 Garmin GPS activity watch and a follow car speedometer.

That speed wobble scared me to death 😂
the wobble comes when braking i think
and how he cool stoped that by pressing more mass to front
There is literally no way to avoid that wobble when braking from high speeds, without someone designing a fancy future longboard (which they should, it would be sick)
@@lylechipperson3407 motorcycles that are prone to speed wobble have a steering stabilizer on the front end. It's basically a little strut filled with oil that limits the rate the wheel can turn left to right. A down sized version with lower viscosity oil in the strut could be used for a long board probably

After the trip
Neck : i ain't folding no more😂😂
@A person who never keeps mouth shut Just keep your mouth Shut
Maybe He should put a pillow on his head
Holy shiiiii that wobble!!!
Is that why his name in the back says Wobbell? XD

@@ktwnriceyou're a cool dude
@@ktwnrice lol I noticed it too
ur a noob
Imagine a car is coming in wrong route
he would go under and follow
@@FernandoLiendo Lowered car

Shot on IPhone music starts playin slowly.
It would hit the follow car then.
That brake just from sitting up.
.....im doing bike packing with my family, and suddenly aerodynamics seems a bit more important than it used to be.
He brake with his feet too
Put it this way, everyday I go into work on my ebike, and there's a long down hill section, if I ride in the normal position, I hit 35mph going down the hill, if I lean forwards and keep my head down, I can hit 50+
My record, is 62mph using the slipstream off a friends car as I raced him down the hill.
It's only a 16mph pedal assist mountain bike from halfords🤣
Simply put the faster you go the more efficient an air brake will be, you see when the air resistance lowers as his speed lowers he starts to use his feet to slow him down
Wind resistance increases with the square of velocity (and proportional to the normal area) so at 80 mph the deceleration is quite large.
You are right, there is more air resistance when he sits up, also the Centre of Gravity changed which is why he became unstable
Can we appreciate the cameraman running with him at 80+ mph and keeping it perfectly smooth
can we appreciete how unfunny is this ?
@@jheric0ol i laughed
Yup

This is why the the average lifespan for men is always less than women.
People, We are living in the end times, ''Repent and turn back to God, turn away from evil and sinful ways, give your lives to Christ, we Jesus Christ is coming soon.'' This is God's Message to the world.
John 3:16 ''For GOD so Loved the world, that HE gave HIS ONLY begotten SON, that whosoever BELIEVES IN HIM shall not perish but HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.''
kindly share with others, God loves you Tony.
Atleast men are living life to the fullest
We die happy😂🚀
Because men like to enjoy life
So you're assuming that women can't do what he does ? That's really sexist dude. Educate yourself.
1:45 scary af
Yeah speed wobbles will make anyone weak in the knees.
Well done Mate :-), I chicken out at the point it starts weaving like mad !(I thought it was just me LOL) My luge does it at the same point, where it levels up before the drop in past the cliff face section (that's where I get the best acceleration), it's the walk back up that takes it out of me !!
Ell ....Jeez man. Scary AND awesome. Well done for holding on in the wobble.
Jep scary af
who else reminded you of malcolm
thanks for the thrill ride! that wobble was well recovered from and have you ever ridden in the rain? Its super fun and drifty.
butterballsknows thanks dude! I ride in the wet all the time, I live in the UK so I don’t have a choice haha 😊
Speed wobble at 80mph my dude you are so sick. Incredible run
m for mile
Is your feet levitating?
The board doesn't feels long enough.
Awesome video mate, made my day🤗👌
*Guardian Angel: How much of a short life you want live?*
*My Guy here: YES!*
Do you have some kind of cushion of piece for your neck either in your suit, helmet, or on the board? I can only imagine how your neck feels. Awesome ride and footage mate. Thank you for the footage.
He was so close to running into one of the sewer drains during the initial part of the ride. That is amazing and crazy.....
There's insane and then there's you... JJJAAAAAIIIISSSSUUUUUSSS!!!!!!!🤯🤯
Not insane but incredible genius, really something
Jancuuuuuuuuuuuk
Sus 😳
Wobb Ell indeed! - even when you were cruising at 70+ it looks like you were still fighting a low oscillating wobble. terrifying.
surely the more weight you can put over the front truck the less wobbles you may get. at least thats what it feels like when im standup longboarding. must be so difficult to get yourself out of wobbles on a luge
congratulations for the speed reached, I don't know what kind of trucks you are using and what set-up you use, but I think woobling depends on the fact that the tracks are too slow, or the rubber tips are too soft. I advise you to keep a maximum of 2 mm difference on these two trucks for these speeds
I wonder what goes through your head when you are driving down the road and only to see a human body coming from the opposite direction at 80mph.
I'd follow him lmao
Amazing. Hope this gets a lot of attention. Bravery deserves credit 😁
thanks very much :) it was certainly a thrill!
no it doesn‘t, it should be discouraged to do dumb reckless shit
@@REALdavidmiscarriage sorry mate lets live in a metal bunker never going outside and doing anything!!! If you go outside you might get hit by something 😲 .
@@voark6140 ok so going outside is equally as dangerous as wobbling downhill on a frequented country road with 80mph, you know what they say about people who can‘t assess risk? They are fools... If you can‘t tell how dangerous this shit is then you are a fool!
This is not bravery, it is just recklessness
those wobs scared the crap out of me! you are really dialed man!
Is that a section of road from Blaenau ffestiniog towards Betws-y-coed? I'm sure I was driving there t'other day.. Amazing speed there, well done not dying..
Awesome Video! My record is 64 mph on "Veteran's Memorial Parkway" in Fountain Hills, Arizona 1999? (confirmed by two different vehicles at two different times) I was running 3 Independent 215mm trucks (I believe those were the widest commercially available trucks at the time) The biggest wheels I could find were 60mm Spitfire (One of which melted off mid-run ha!) and I had just switched bearings to abec7 (I think I was just running abec3s before, around 50 some odd mph)
Noah, Tracker has had a wider, and more stable truck out for decades. Their '184' is as-wide as an Indy 215, because they measure the Hanger, not the Axle. And, any decent Quad-Roller-skate shop could've put you on Hyper Super-Mundo 72mm, 78A wheels back then. "PSR"
@@ericbrammer2245 I did end up running 70mm hard urethane rim longboard wheels with the abec 7s and never had any problems after
@uʍoᗭǝpᴉSdn I think that's part of why they melted, ha!
that "car" was our dream when we where all kids🧐
that wobble was 😬😬😬 also notice the back says Wobb Ell 😂
There should be a disclaimer for kids. "don't do this at home!" Uncle Ell has trained for years!
that landscape is absolutely gorgeous. would love to hike that.
Whoooooa. OK, great skills and recovery. MY question: Who/what was following you? (Edit: A car with speedo. Fast needed reflexes on him as well!)
The cameraman

thanks for risking your life to entertain us ;)
And he gets up just like that. Enjoy your youth!
When you start to realize the cameraman is sliding with him
That speedwobble had me thinking you where gonna eat it man lol ... wow
wooble wooble shake shake, man I love this sport, sic ride man!
this is so fkng sick!
You rode out of that wobble like a monstrously skilled maniac.
God damnit RUclips now I'm watching street luge videos for the next 3 hours FML
Fwoarrrr, she's a twitchy girl! Good ride mate!
Man he really got some guts
Holy Moly ! The cameraman has also nice skills though !👌
I think it's a drone bro
Its his mate driving a car.
Crazy man. Respect !
That's some serious core strength
hello recommended
now don't click off now, this is actually some pretty cool shit
1:33 "Buffeting, buffeting" 😅😂
See, that's exactly why doing this in Switzerland makes sense, because the roads are SO smooth. Doing it in Britain is welcoming trouble. Surprised you didn't hit a pot hole 😝
While on that wobble scene I saw your shirt and read the Wobb Ell as wobble😭
Balls of steel my friend well done …..!
Respect to the cameraman
It’s a car genius
That speed wobble is insane
Te sei più matto di quelli che si gettano dal cucuzzolo con la tuta alare!!! Ahahahahahah 😂😂❤️🔥❤️🔥

How lucky can get by not hitting that pothole @ 1:55? Good stuff bro 👍
*Wobb Ell* 👌
Me: holly shit that wobble!
Shirt: Wobb Ell
😂
8️⃣3️⃣mph
I can't imagine doing this on indian roads😁
on Canadian roads as well
only legends can have a challenge of that
what caused the scary as hell wobble at 1:48? is the engineering of the set up just hitting its max? eg max speed max g force etc?
1:45 When the street luge started to wobble, he shirt read Wobb ELL. Funny.
this is me when im asleep
My record is 65 mph
That’s wicked mate but how fast are the cars going in front then? Good job it’s in the valleys with not a lot of old bill 👮♀️
You mad mad guy. Big respect
His Girlfriend: Come Round I'm bored
Him: i can't my car broke down
Her: but I'm naked
Him:
Fitting name on his back , wobb el
Now that was amazing
Greatly appreciated wonderful performance congratulations 👌👌👌
Crazy fast :) I was scared of the wombles :)
How do you slow down and stop though? Is there a built-in brake?
Wobb Ell is wobbling
Fucking awesome, that speed wobble 😆 excellent video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This looks so much fun but at the same time dangerous
Broooooo I could feel the speed wobbles!!
i like how wobble is his name and every comment
I totally need to learn how to transition from a kick start to laying down.
Wobb Ell
Wobb ell 😎😅
This is something else !
Truely respect the cameraman for running that fast
how do you stop on this thing???
The necks have to be so strong on these people lol. Holding your head up that long can’t be easy.
Why does your street luge wobble like that while the long boards don't?
Quite the speed wobble!! 😮
Balls of steel mate
Crazy..... So Amazing
U r plyng wit fire bro
Crazy ! with cars arriving !
I remember riding the long board on the belly this guy took it to the extreme
Excellent! l like this video. From PopBoomPop
Holy shit, man! 👏🏻
