Downhill Skateboarding; three friends hike up one of the tallest Mt. Passes (12,500ft) in the US to skateboard down. Closed to cars and all alone the guys hope to hit a sick longboard session riding miles to the bottom.
Western Session, a longboarding Mini-Series produced by Original Skateboards.

Hey Gray,
You might want to go with some 3dm Avilas if things are a little rough, those wheels absorb some serious road noise.
I personally ride the Retro ZigZags 70mm 80a for most hills, but they do get chattery on the rough stuff (I ate it hardcore in EP5 because the road was so rough it chattered my Apex out from under my feet).
That being said, soft wheels are your best friend on rough roads. You might also want to look at a set of Abec 11 Gumballs.
1x Apex 37 w/S8s + Lime ZigZags
1x Torpedo 40 w/S8s
1x Hybrid
1x Malakai 40 w/S8s
1x Derringer
1x Custom 45
1x Terrapin 34
I think we had 9 which means that I am some how missing two but I don't remember which ones they were. Most of the riding was done on the Apex, Torpedo, Malakai and Terrapin.
This video specifically was shot on the Apex, Malakai (w/S8 200mms) and the Custom 45.
