The Sounds of Silk // Raw Run

Full raw run of Cole Trotta smoothly sliding down California's "Silk Road." A laid-back ride mixed with 360's, sweet stand-up slides, awesome scenery, and more!

To start off the first raw run of 2021, here is the last raw run from the wild ABNL tour. We call this road "Silk Road" because well, the pavement just feels that way. It's not the craziest road at all, but boy is it a vibe.
Watch as Cole showcases that, by casually destroying this run in a way that almost seems too easy.

1:23 So seamless and effortless, Cole might as well have been on a freeboard. Very smooth.

I enjoy your videos very much. I've been injured for months and haven't been able to skate so your channel is a needed outlet for me. Appreciate all you do!

[conorlamere]

Incredible skill and style! Also, switching stance on a hill bomb? I can only dream!

[conchosewing]

I've watched a lot of downhill longboard videos the past week and this guys style has impressed me the most so far. He's so smooth and looks to be in more control of his board than anyone else I've watched. It's like his board is an extension of his body rather than something foreign he's hanging on to for dear life.

I get that he wasn't going as fast as a lot of others I've watched, but his style looks so natural and effortless. I'm going to search more of him.

P.S. I'm 41 and have never longboarded in my life, but I just ordered a board that will be here in two days! I can't wait to start doing this. I skated a lot as a teenager but haven't in over 20 years. I have some good slopes around my house that aren't too big and should provide good training for me. I don't plan on going crazy fast down any big hills, but I think carving down some moderate hills at 20mph would be a blast!
