downhill skateboarding

so this is my first time with this style subject.
C+C would be great.
very minor PP as i dont know what im doing there.

i was wondering about looking for something to photograph and spotted these guys suiting up so i thought why not?
they were moving fast. im going to try to meet them again next weekend for panning shots because i want the pictures to see the fast movement.

I think the panning shots will work much better for these. Maybe its the angle but It honestly doesn't even look like a hill, looks like they are skating on nearly flat ground.

yeah i was at the bottom. the hill isnt terriblt steep, its long. some areas steeper than others. it was there first time there and not as steep as theyd hoped.
something i would never do thats forsure. especially in traffic

Question....Do they just mix it with the road traffic or is approved by the local area roads dept?

Picture wise I think they need tighter cropping.

they just mixed it in with traffic.
just for the record i dont know these guys. just saw them and snapped some pics. and since i know they'll keep doing it. i'll keep taking pictures.
tighter crops, will do, thank you.
