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

Спорт

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.

    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

    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

(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)
