In the spirit of promoting inclusiveness, mental health, creativity, and fun in the face of COVID-19, Skate IDSA(International Distance and Supercross Association) is hosting a virtual scavenger hunt event accessible to anyone in the world with a smartphone and a skateboard! The Great Longboard GooseChase, Vol. 1 begins Friday, December 18, 2020 and runs through Monday, January 18.
Using the mobile app GooseChase, participants will connect with each other in virtual teams to tackle challenges that can be completed almost anywhere and while observing social distancing. Prizes will be awarded to top points finishers, and a portion of fundraising proceeds driven by both participants and sponsors will be donated to the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation.
The organizers strive to show that even in one of the most unprecedented times in history, it’s still possible to grow a community, make new friends, and support each other.
About Skate IDSA – founded in 2011 as the official governing body for long distance skateboard racing, it has evolved into a platform that supports organized events that help promote and provide a platform to longboarding. The mission of SkateIDSA as a 501 C(3) non profit organization, is to showcase Longboarding as a viable source of alternative transportation through competitive and educational events on paved roads, tracks, parking garages, and pumptracks/skateparks. SkateIDSA also provides a larger voice to independent longboarders trying to showcase legitimacy to their municipal leaders worldwide.

New Years Skate on the Vennbahnweg😍🥳 No matter the time of the year: the Vennbahnweg always has beautiful Landscapes.
Just made a small trip of about 40km. I wish you all a happy new year! And don’t forgot to do your goosechase challenges to be able to win a very special MelonenKacke Procyon;)

Needed to do some maintenance on the winter setup and decided to tick off the Mazzone challenge for the Longboard Goose chase. Long distance setups contain way too many parts.

Addiction sucks. Mental health is important. You don’t have to go it alone. Skateboarding is awesome.
Presenting The Great Longboard Goosechase, Volume 1.
We have brought some of the brightest minds in the industry together to create a first of its kind virtual scavenger hunt. With challenges from virtually every discipline of soft wheel skateboarding we believe that this event will be one to remember. All you need to participate is a skateboard and an android/apple smart phone, free to enter but this will be no easy cruise. With more than 20 of your favorite brands taking part and fabulous prizes from each of them there has never been a longboard event quite like this one.
This challenge aims to bring us all together while starting a tough conversation about mental health and addiction in our community. We want to show that even in one of the most unprecedented times in our history it’s still possible to grow a community, make new friends, and support each other. We want it to be known that no matter who you are that if you ride the paved wave you’re invited to our party.
Will you accept the challenge?

It’s ALIVE! We present you this “Frankenboard” as stitched together by @niekohletzanakis for this @gbomb_longboards challenge. Can you imagine riding this monster? #longboardgoosechase
Tough 110km today, temperatures around freezing in the morning and a lot of water on the road the rest of the day. Luckily some sunshine as well!

Weird world we live in these days. I think it’s funny, I’ve been social distancing myself from people before it was popular lmao! Anyway, this photo was taken in key west a few days after I skated over 100 miles at ultra skate 2020, which had the worst weather of them all. But still, a great experience to say the least... 🌴 🥥 My first ultra skate was in 2013. So I guess this means in 2021 it would have been my 9th ultra skate. That is, if I didn’t shatter my knee on October 9th 2016, which made me miss 2017 ultra skate... you know what they say, everything happens for a reason. Pain is what was needed to push me to the next level and for that I am thankful 🙏🏼
I would also like to let you know that my helmet has saved my life twice. I was in a hit in run about 5 years ago, a car ran into me while I was skating the bike lane. I still had concussion symptoms for 3 days even tho I had my helmet on.
