I have a question. When you guys run holding your board and jump on it, how do you get so much speed? Do you drag your wheels or do you lift your whole board. To sum this all up, how do you do it?

well what i do is put it in my left hand and grab the nose and hold it while i run, cause i ride regular, and i carry it and the tail kinda drags on the groundm then once im ready i just jump on, its kinda hard to say, sorry bro.

wen u start running, u develope momentum, and when u jump on the board, your momentum pushes the board along its all physics

You run faster.
Run run run, grabbing nose, let board down, jump on top, ride away and do a stair set.

well i usually only drag the tail, but sometimes ill start off with the tail, and then start to push it down and then my wheels drag down, then i push it all down and just jump on.

i usually drag the tail for a sec then the wheels roll, i place the board down then push, i guess u get more speed b/c instead of having to push as fast as u can for like 75 feet u can just run and push 3 times in 30feet and get the same speed

I run, throw my board, and then jump on. It really doesn't matter.

or u can push your board across the ground with your foot and when its rolling away run up to it then jump on and you get good speed.... i do that if i want to get up the QP
