Longboarding: Footbrake FOR Life

We hope you all get some good laughs from this video, because we sure had fun making it.
All references to individuals, companies or concepts, real or imagined are actually just imagined. This video is not intended to bash footbraking (or anyone else) in any way at all; it is just a comedic approach to showcasing it and a chance to lovingly satirize the stereotypical, ultra-serious "extremely extreme" mentality. We at Loaded believe footbraking is very important; it's an indispensable skill that every skater (especially downhillers and city commuters) should be comfortable with. Footbrake for life.
Big thanks to Jonathan Jelkin for all the graphic work, color correction, and music edits; he nailed it. Super stoked on this vision; had this idea floating in my head for over a year and finally busted it out. We shall be embracing more humor this year in our videos, and it was a refreshing break and challenge to make a video like this with dialogue and an empowering theme.
Actors: Kyle Chin, Dustin Hampton, Jessie Davidson, Dane Webber
Filmed & Edited : Adam Colton

If you're not using your helmet to stop, you're doing it wrong
-
''ive been footbreaking for one year but dreaming about it for six'' XD Best fucking line XD
-
Footbraking is like so 2 years ago, I use the mighty hand of Zeus to brake.
-
I cannot slide. This is me.
-
which shoe sole urethane leaves the best thane lines?
-
I knew I had skills. Since this video I'm proud of myself. Next time I'lll try to tie a metal sheet under the sole to get a flare trace.

"Dude look at that shoelace core! Almost to the sock!"
-
"Someone once asked me where I see footbraking going, and I said ohohoh man... I'm too excited to even talk about it!"
-
I honestly don't know what to make of this. I recently started longboarding in May and haven't learned to slide yet. I feel really lame because I'm footbraking still cx but then again I'm not bombing hills. And thank you very very much for sacrificing your feet and your shoes and your lives for footbraking at over 100mph. It is much apprecaited for the longboarding ignorant. I understand now.
-
by far my favorite loaded video EVER. you guys nailed this one
-
Guys that was amazing nice job! Definitely one of your funniest yet.
-

-

I'm a baby longboarder, took me 2 days to balance out on my board and a week to learn how to ride it. I don't do downhill or anything, but I still find it hard to foot break while going at what I consider high speeds. For something that's supposed to be the easiest way to stop, I find myself having trouble. I'm also too scared to break any other way because I longboard in the streets and with cars coming behind and towards me, what's the best way to slow down/stop and not risk getting hit?

The first guy has been skating for fifty years and looks 20
-
This is the greatest video to hit longboarding since videos started hitting longboards
-
I lost it at 4:10. Well done Loaded, Well done.
