- Allow me to introduce you to one of my all-time favorite sports. Mountainboarding is a super fun way to move sideways and if you snowboard or skate, you should definitely give it a look!

Longboard Dad here, I have always wanted to attempt Mountain Boarding and my teenage Son got his first one just today and he has no clue what he has. Gotta get the leaking valve stems repaired, he's going to love it I'm sure
So, how did it turn out with the mountainboarding?
@AnKlMa well, unfortunately i can't find the right tires and tubes for it, we still have it though, he just hasn't been able to ride it yet. Thank you for asking
It's like if a Mountain bike and snowboard had a baby lol thats a good one. And yes your right this sport is so fun yet underrated.
Comment for the algorithm cause this channel is sick
Wow, first view. First for me. Also, love the channel. You'll go far!
Thanks homes!
Excellent introduction to the sport. I'm returning to mountainboarding for the first time in a few years myself. Looking forward to riding and putting together a video on the experience!
Heck yeah man! Get it!
I started a few months ago after many years of normal skateboarding and honestly it’s too much fun come rain or shine smooth or bumpy it will smash it
Man I can feel the love and passion keep it up bro!
I was a great skateboarder when I was a kid and I'm hoping that I can do this... I'm not so sure that I will be able to , I just got my first board and it's pretty cool I'm hoping that my Siberian husky and I can have fun on this, she needs to run and I need to move faster than a walk for her... i live in nw georgia so plenty of good terrain..thank you so much for your video it's really awesome!
Love the video good quality, great info. Definitely got me interested in mountain boarding!
Love the video, great explanation.
Thanks man!
I really love the channel, You really make good quality contents bro, keep it up!
Thanks man!
that looks sick
hi I really admire your work for the simple and objective way, I have a project tip for the channel, I could make a tutorial of a Skimboard mold press (Flatland) since on youtube you can't even find
a tutorial, following here from Brazil
I agree, this could be a good project 👍🏼
I'd love to do a skimboard, I don't get to the beach very often though. In the meantime you should check out my video on an easy, inexpensive pow-surfer build, a skimboard would pretty much be built the same way unless you wanted to do composites.
Man. I buy cheap mountainboard " by accident" ... the straps was so weak that i did not mount them, for today i ride it like longboard... on city without straps
But after your video im about to buy some straps and let it try...
Came to check out the diy skateboard vids.. ended up getting kinda carried away. Dope channel, homie. Subscribed.
Thank you! I'm glad you like what I've got going :D
Add a 12meter kite and float . Riding since 96 and it got fun when I added a kite .
I had a two line trainer kite for a little while, but I never stepped up to a big enough one to use with a board, it seems like it would be a blast
I'm on a trip to the Tetons, and getting some mountainboarding in.
Getting lots of comments from people, usually the the effect of "Woah a mountainboard! Its been forever since I've seen one, used to have one back in the day"
But there was this one exchange I though you'd really enjoy.
Dude was all "Is that a mountainboard? I used to ride those 20 years ago until I ended up in the ICU.
Its just in the attic, I should get it out again."
Its kind of sad, mountainboarding is obviously recognizable to a lot of people, but as something from the early 2000's and not as something with present relevance.
Great video! But there is still one big part which is not mentioned here. It is mountainboard downhill in bikeparks with breaks and full bindings.
Definitely, single track is a great aspect of mountainboarding.
Proper mountianboarding DH never gets mentioned. :(
You forgot mentioning rainy days for skateboarders. Montainboarding is still a go when it’s muddy...
Subbed! Great vid! Do some vids with a kite, let's see that!
I've always wanted to give that a shot
Please could you get into a build hard wear as well
Working on it!
Thank you, it is really motivating. And you can still add a power kite to it !!! :-)
Just came by this video, good introduction you guys can check a lot of mountainboard content here on RUclips! This year we had world videopart competion so feel free to check it out and get pumped to try mountainboarding :) hugs from Portugal mountainboard community
Listen to this ☝️ guy and check out the Four-Down project, it's a rad video series
I love this shit!🤘
Your chances of getting away from a charging bear are far better on this than if you are hiking another advantage
Are you riding skate trucks instead of channel trucks for a specific reason?
Also I do prefer riding them with heelstraps for a more locked-in feel
Nice video! I've been thinking about buying one of these but I'm worried about not being able to use it due to the lack of large hills in my area... Is it hard to pick up speed on a Mountain Board or will they get going even on a small hill?
If you run the tires at a pretty high psi you can hold speed fairly well on a small hill. It helps to have better hubs if you want to go that route
@@GoodRoads Thanks! Hopefully this video reaches more people like me to bring into the sport
I would love that. Good luck with it dude, have fun!
Did you get one?
Do they make brake kits for these? I would love to ride it on bike trails.
Yes! I have never owned a set so single-track has always been pretty darn scary for me, but most sets of trucks have mounting points for brake systems.
Yeah, MBS Channel trucks have brake kits. It’s also possible to get hydraulic brakes
Be careful with those ATS 12 trucks. I had one snap underneath my feet while riding at about 25mph. Not a pleasant experience that's for sure.
Wow. Dang. I'm hoping to upgrade anyway but that sounds bad. What part broke?
@@GoodRoads It broke on the metal that connects the hanger to the pivot cup. Seems to be a weak spot.
I recently got a mountainboard. The only other board sport I can do is snowboarding. And I struggle with mountainboarding at the moment. I simply need more practice. But one thing I can't wrap my head around at the moment is, how do I control my speed. I get the powerslide for a full stop. But what if I simply want to slow down a little? Maybe a little tutorial video for that? Would be awesome if you could do that.
I've had a video about that in mind for a while now because you're right: it's the oddest thing about mountainboarding. Some quick thoughts: you can learn to do standing check-slides, it just takes a little work. It's also SUPER helpful to adjust your tire pressure so that you roll at a comfortable speed for whatever run you're taking
@@GoodRoads You mean kind of smaller power slides? Sounds similar to snowboarding :D Thank you
Sort of, to me they feel more like speed check slides in longboarding with the way the wheels break out and hook up. It takes a little more oomph than snowboarding
Dude you need to try electric mountainboarding! You would love it
Where did you get yours from?
@@gswpower7098 I made it myself!
do you have any advice for older people who want to try this out? People who have not done any board riding of any sort?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Sure! I think a beginner of any age would do well to start out on a mellow grassy hill with plenty of flat space at the bottom. Get yourself familiar with how it feels to be strapped into the board, maybe wear your bindings a little loose at first so you can jump off the board if you need to. Start to get a feel for shifting your weight from your toes to your heels to initiate turns. Go slow and don't push outside of your comfort zone too much at first, aim for gradual growth. As I've gotten older I've found that pads have gone from a nice-to-have to a straight up necessity, and I've also found that stretching makes a world of difference in terms of how good a day I have on the hill. Also: hydration is key. Older bodies do take a bit more care so take the time to do it right!
Thank you!!
When falling forwards do you take the first impact on your knee pads and then on your forearms or is there another technic for forward falls when learning? I would be wearing knee, elbow and wrist protection. Thanks again for spurring interest in this sport!
If I have wrist guards on I usually try to catch myself with my hands first but whatever feels most comfortable
Can you move on flat grass Stead of going downhill?
You can push the same way you'd push a skateboard. It's a little harder because the axels are wider, and grass doesn't roll as well as pavement, but it can be done. It's definitely easier and more fun if you've got a bit of a hill though
0:38 mall grab
It's not a mall grab on a mountainboard. The boards weigh ~15lbs and if you grab a truck the opposite wheels roll on the grounds. It's the easiest way to move these boards around. Even if it was: who cares about mall grabbing anyway?
So just got my first board and I got because I love snowboarding so much but the board seems so heavy when trying to tricks like Manuel's or even 180s is there something im missing
Nope, the boards are just heavier. Think of it like the difference between skiing and mountain biking. We need stuff like wheels and trucks so that we can move over the ground where a snowboard just slides, and all of that means extra weight. Don't get discouraged! All it takes is building up the right leg muscles and then when you transfer back over to snowboarding you'll be able to whip your board around like it's nothing!
@@GoodRoads no worries im not giving up just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something lol thanks for the advice love your videos
One of your future projects should be building a mountainboard
Definitely. I'm hoping to have what I need ready for that build by this fall.
Good Roads how do you like the board you have? Would you recommend it?
Yeah! It's a MBS Core 94. I rode the old MBS channel and matrix trucks for the longest time and I'm really surprised at how much I like the skate style trucks. They're so light. My dream board doesn't really exist (yet!) but I've enjoyed riding this one. I'd also love to give the new Matrix II trucks a shot.
Good Roads sweet thanks 👍🏼
Good Roads Just ordered the Core 94 it’s supposed to be here next week! Can’t wait to ride it!
- Thanks
How can I make a mountain board?
i feel like miniature independent suspension would really help these boards out. give you a inch or two higher and could be adjusted for stiffness or built with strong coils or air shocks. I know thatd involve an insane increase in maintenance but i could see how itd be a little better. it seems like you only have max 1 and a 1/4 inch of clearance on flat and super manicured trails.
something like this: ruclips.net/video/FM05BsPRPIE/видео.html
It's not that weird. It's just a huge skateboard with off-road tires.
Is it electric ⚡️
Add electrics and your carving the whole world and uphill.
