Members ExplodingBoy Posted July 15, 2005 Author Members Share Posted July 15, 2005 That was the Great Wall that he clears BTW. World record and the only person to clear it on something without a motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fear My Potato Posted July 15, 2005 Members Share Posted July 15, 2005 HOGGAGUGA! Welcome to City Wok...20 ways to wok your dog Seriously though, I did see that on the Daily Show last night...the first time someone jumped over the great wall with a skateboard. Jon Stewart raised an interesting point....if only the Monguls had skateboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BOBA JFET Posted July 15, 2005 Members Share Posted July 15, 2005 Hmm...I don't know much about skateboarding, but that didn't look terribly difficult. Doing the trick looks harder than just clearing the jump, if you have a bigass ramp like that. Although, whoever arranged that deserves props, setting up an event like that and building a huge ramp and stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hyperstationjr Posted July 15, 2005 Members Share Posted July 15, 2005 I'm not much of a skateboarder either, but figure nothing is holding you to that board. You have to get down that rap at pretty damn fast speeds, make the jump OVER THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA, land, and THEN do the trick, all with incredibly stability on a piece of wood with 4 wheels... That's impressive enough for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying I could do it, but as skate videos go, it was pretty boring. They built the ramp up so big that there wan't too much to span.
