I went to the Ou Kaaps se weg and the hot heels
race here in South Africa, thats the first time
since redbull 2001 and even then did not pay much
attention to anything but standup. This time round
I got into it. At the races they have gravity
bikes, inline, buttboarding,luge and standup. They
are all insane and u got to take your hat off to
anyone doing it. Standup is my favourite and as
soon as I organise some leathers I am entering.
When I arrived and made my way up the hill the
buttboarders were on there way down dont get me
wrong luging looks insane and all but buttboarding
just seems so much more raw and insane...
...Considering that most luges sit inside the
luge were as buttboarding your on basically a long
out of shape downhill board with nothing but u
lying on the board. I went out one night to go bomb
a hill and after a few sessions I took my
speedboard and gave buttboarding a go it was damn
classic luckly it was a mellow hill cause
buttboarding is a whole lot different.
