Almost 900 likes and not a single dislike. Crunchie, you fucken rock man! So stoked every time I see you have posted a new video for me to watch... because every single one is friggin epic!!! Thanks bro :)
Yo dude, love the vids. I'm starting to try downhill thanks to you but the fastest I've gone was 34MPH into a slide so I kind it puss out over that. Love the vids mate.
Hi crunchie, i was wondering if you had some kind of playlist, cuz i really like the tracks featured in your videos and i'd like to listen more of them :)
Hi crunchie I just Brazil's much I follow your work and I would love it if you put in videos more often because n has many dawhill channels like yours with this quality and tals hope you read this hahahahaha one hug from Brazil :)
absolute fucking insane sickness !!!!!!!!! so cool all the crashes in that turn some of those guys were not even close to making that turn and some were so dialed in it was awesome.
It's best to have them somewhere in the middle. If they're too loose you'll generally have less control, but I've seen people who ride loose trucks and are fine. Also if they're too tight you'll actually be more prone to speed wobble and wont't be able to take corners very well. So basically mess around with different bushing duros and be sure not to over tighten them, then get used to riding the setup that suits you best and keep practicing until you're comfortable at higher speeds. Hope this helps
Hey guys, just wondering your opinions as Google has done me no good so far. I have a LY switch 40 and I'm really enjoying it just for riding around, but was wondering if y'all thought it would be any good for downhill? It's not something I can do now as I possibly live in the flattest city ever (seriously no hills whatsoever here, you can see for miles it's so flat) but maybe as a little out of town excursion type thing. Opinions? I'm not in the market for a new board, so I'd rather not suggestions. I'm really just here to ask if I can do downhill stuff on it or no.
All depends on what type of trucks/bushings/wheels you have for it. But the switch 40 should be just fine for downhill. It'll be a bit more stable because it's a drop-deck, but you wont be able to turn super hard, so you'll have to be decent at sliding to go through turns.
They can often be US$700+ . So not cheap !! But you can find suppliers online search for longboarding leather suit, skateboard leather suit etc. For people wanting to save money I think motorcyle leathers are similar and may be easier to find used.
anyone else feel like hay bales and bags may hurt more than just falling? I was at Maryhill the other day for the G-ride and crashed a few times...damm those hay bales hurt as much as crashing at 25 mph
They stop you hitting the metal barrier and flying into the jagged rocks on the side of this road, which makes them better than them not being there. But falling off is just a skid, whereas the hay is a collision, so yeah, they do often hurt a bit more.
Hey crunchie! Downhill is my passion, but losing skin isn't. Me and my friend where in a gnarly crash at around 25-35 mph about 30% of the way down(monster hill, 40 mph is a average, and well above 60 if you take the second hill above it)and I was wondering if there are any cheaper alternatives to leathers.. I got some bad rash on my hip, ate straight thru my jeans and my friend had to get surgery on his arm. I'm not ready to spend 2k on a suit (I'm only 14). If you know of anything that works well, pls let me know.
Wear a helmet! Don't hit stationary objects while you are riding or crashing and you won't die. Don't hit cars or trucks or slide off a cliff. Besides that, you should be fine. Lol
I know this is very simple but you buy them by googling ACID Longboards and then contact them through the contact link on their webpage. Or you could contact them through their facebook page which is linked in the description of this very video. That's how you buy them.
If you look at the beginning of the video, there are way less bags and they aren't secured properly. We had to get them to stop the riders and add heaps more bags.
+Random-shiz cause they're made to such tight tolerances out of high quality material=last long time and way less slop so better for going upwards of 50mph than 50 calibers
i don't know if ther's a direct fly to the new zealand, i think that i first will fly to australia by plane then i will go to new zealand by ferry(i think)

Is it better to have lose trucks or tight trucks when downhill racing? Which one do you feel you have more control?
It's best to have them somewhere in the middle. If they're too loose you'll generally have less control, but I've seen people who ride loose trucks and are fine. Also if they're too tight you'll actually be more prone to speed wobble and wont't be able to take corners very well.

Hope this helps

Ey Crunchie! What are your opinions on the K4's?
Where is new videos???
Hey crunchier what kind of boards do you ride? Also bearings and wheel recommendations would be great
Kevin Cox Description ;)
Cassins bail towards to the beginning looks fucking sweet!
epic vid my bro
this is OG nz skateboarding, kids have been doing this shit in new zealand long before they were ever kickflipping.
I'm waiting for the next video Mr :D
levi with the stand up toe grip in wet!
man i hope ther ok
Amazing !
Question, where do you buy those full body suits that like everyone is wearing?
They are expensive haha
They can often be US$700+ . So not cheap !! But you can find suppliers online search for longboarding leather suit, skateboard leather suit etc. For people wanting to save money I think motorcyle leathers are similar and may be easier to find used.
Crunchie, I'm interested in buying an acid longboard i live in Puerto Rico basically the other side of the world but how can I buy one?
internet
+Jadiel Gonzalez acidlongboards.co.nz/ There ya go bro :-D
What did you shoot this on??
keep doing this.
anyone else feel like hay bales and bags may hurt more than just falling? I was at Maryhill the other day for the G-ride and crashed a few times...damm those hay bales hurt as much as crashing at 25 mph

Hey crunchie! Downhill is my passion, but losing skin isn't. Me and my friend where in a gnarly crash at around 25-35 mph about 30% of the way down(monster hill, 40 mph is a average, and well above 60 if you take the second hill above it)and I was wondering if there are any cheaper alternatives to leathers.. I got some bad rash on my hip, ate straight thru my jeans and my friend had to get surgery on his arm. I'm not ready to spend 2k on a suit (I'm only 14). If you know of anything that works well, pls let me know.
In the same situation bro. I'm also 14 and 2k is a lot.
you can get perfectly good suits for £500 man and unless your going over 50 anything above that price is overkill
dont mean to sound passive agressive but another alternative is to just take it.
Haha same,I'm just 14 and need help
antsolja
See thats better, but the point is were just 14. It was hard for me to even afford my board lol
1 view. wow. Also, great video as usual crunchie.
yo crunchie what camera do you use for high fps shooting?
Thats so sick
mate what camera do you film with?
So I've been longboarding for a while and I just wanted to ask how do you not die when boarding downhill?"
Wear a helmet! Don't hit stationary objects while you are riding or crashing and you won't die. Don't hit cars or trucks or slide off a cliff. Besides that, you should be fine. Lol
Track name pls?
ohh is a wonderfull video (Y)!!
HOW DO U BUY ACID DECKS I CANT FIND HOW TO BUY THEM
I know this is very simple but you buy them by googling ACID Longboards and then contact them through the contact link on their webpage. Or you could contact them through their facebook page which is linked in the description of this very video. That's how you buy them.
you have to email antony
Since it said: "speed up your videos" at the end, I decided to rewatch the video in 1.5 speed.
Holy shit. haha
Wow if those bags weren't there, like 20 boarders would have died
If you look at the beginning of the video, there are way less bags and they aren't secured properly. We had to get them to stop the riders and add heaps more bags.
+Crunchie damn what' in the bag?! they look scary as fuck
+Tristan Taillon gravel and nails
+Tristan Taillon They were filled with like empty milk bottles or some shit
what the hell...
How did you decide to call yourself Crunchie?
+Charlie Bass
I think his parents named him that. Some parents are crazy.
how much would it cost to buy a setup like yours crunchie?
2-300$ maby a lil more 400$ at the most
Random-shiz dang i got a board at big five for like 60 lol even though it was cheap its pretty damn good quality
+Random-shiz lol the aera trucks alone are $400 at least
+charged up damn wtf I didn't even realize why? Some 50 degree calibers are fine for me and they're 50$
+Random-shiz cause they're made to such tight tolerances out of high quality material=last long time and way less slop so better for going upwards of 50mph than 50 calibers
I'm 14 and the fastest I've ever gone is 30mph but it's still an amazing feeling
same dude
Max o I've gone 28 mph I'm still trying for 30
i love wobbles at 30 mph
when i will be 18 years old, for my birthday i will have a ticket for australia, my dream is longboard with you crunchie, i'm from italy :)
+iTeRmA Edits this is New Zealand...
i don't know if ther's a direct fly to the new zealand, i think that i first will fly to australia by plane then i will go to new zealand by ferry(i think)
1:51 the sniper is real
What's a good overall Long board, regardless on price..
It depends on what you want to do with it
Well you have to decide on a brand Z-flex, Landyachts, Sector Nine, Acid etc...
If you want to cruise go for a pintail If you want to race go for something like a drop down
+S33kAndD3stroy depends on what u wanna do /Skill level/style... theres no universal board made for everything
Go to muirskate and go to the help guide that will walk you through finding a board for what you want to use it for
That takes some skill
+Crunchie What board do you use?
It's in the description
bro what do you use for a foot stop
Your hands or the longboard glove thingy that i don't know the name for👍
nah man a foot stop is to keep your foot in place
Oh i thought you were talking breaks my bad
allgood g
Dude who of all the riders r u?
Rican Paradise it's says in the description that he was injured so he wasn't riding.
Mostercat for the win!
