longest coaster (distance)

I havent measured any of mine yet, but some people who watch me have estimated them at like 300-350ft. I will prolly have more exact distances next spring/summer

are you talking flat or downhill grade? sitting or standing(manual)? whats real tight is to rock a long manual and bump jump out of it down some steps!

If you can do 300ft on flat ground, you should be able to do WAY longer down hill, I know I can, but I dont count that cause its kinda like cheating
