What you get to shoot: Downhill racing action , competitors' preparing and camadiarie ...... and a look at a very fringe culture of Longboarding. Freestyle riding.
SAFETY ALERT: THESE GUYS WILL BE BLASTING DOWN RIFLE RANGE ROAD SO.......
1. Pick your angles carefully BUT STAY OUT OF THE WAY !!!
2. Bailouts and crashes will likely happen round the sharper corners ... KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE
