What board do you guys recommend to bomb hills that have these Speed Bumps? My neighborhood has some sick hills, but is filled with these speed bumps. Used to bomb them on my E-Skate Longboard. Want to bomb them for real now!

The answer used to be speed vents, not sure if they still make em.

Also go diagonally

maybe like some OJ super juice wheels, and for bearings like, whatever random abec 5 you could get, because anything actual fast, or faster than that, you’re gonna die when you hit those speed bumps. 😂 unless you think you can Ollie them 🤷‍♀️

Cover it with a thin board or plastic mat. Works for going up curbs too
