LongTreks on SkateDecks - Skate Across South America

By , About.com Guide   July 2, 2010

Follow me on:

Adam ColtonBack in February I told you guys about Adam Colton, Paul Kent and Aaron Enevoldsen skateboarding 1,500 miles across South America. The trip took two months, totally self supported, and they brought back some AMAZING footage. And if the raw footage wasn't enough, Adam just happens to be an artist when it comes to putting together videos! He's releasing a 12 episode series, and has the first 4 done already. Each episode is about 7 to 10 minutes long. Watch them here for free:

Take a look at these videos. Adam says that the 4th one is the best so far - it's intense stuff! Pushing up what look like endless mountains, with huge backpacks on, camping wherever they can find, in another country... If you think of skateboards as toys, or longboards as only something to use on little hills in town, and to get across campus, well ... these videos should open up your mind to a whole new world of possibilities. If these three guys can do this, with hardly any money between them, what could you do? Skateboarding is creative, and creative people keep pushing its limits.
