LONGBOARDING (by Carlos Espases)


The sport I really like is longboarding.
The longboarder tried to  imitate the moves of a surfer but on the ground, using  his skateboards , and so the longboard sport was created.
The longboards are made  with a wooden  board ,  trucks and metal wheels similiar to the  rollerskates .

The longboard  is longer than the skating board because you need more room to have more mobility, and longboarders also need less harshly wheels to slide on the asphalt, and the asphalt and the trucks are wider for more stability.
To practice longboarding you  need protection because you can reach high speeds. You will need a helmet and a pair of gloves!
