Here’s a list of some videos I found around the internet that showcases the force of speed wobbles pretty damn good if I do say. Now I know your going to laugh your butt off at these poor souls bailing off their skateboards onto pavement as I did when I found them, but try to learn a thing or two to prevent them from happening to you too. (Like NOT skitching behind a truck… such a dumb idea)
Every skateboarder will experience speed wobbles at some point, hell I did and ended up with some pretty gnarly road rash but I learned from the whole ordeal and kept at it. Watching these videos of poor skaters bailing will hopefully teach you a lesson on what not to do when it comes to speed wobbles. (Check out the Speed Wobbles guide I wrote for more information.)
I wonder how many of them ended up in the hospital? Remember guys and gals, always protect that dome with a good properly fitted helmet. Feel free to comment with your skateboard speed wobbles stories and let me know if you’d like to see a certain video here (maybe even you!) and I’ll be sure to post it up. These are in no particular order, enjoy!
