Our guests Simon and Werner who are developing this project are talking about the mission of ILDFF to support and grow the community and to make the sport more popular.

They have used the pandemic by creating a first rulebook for longboard dancing including guidelines on competition formats, scoring mechanisms, specifications of materials and safety measures. Simon and Werner At this point they're presenting the first draft of the rulebook to the worldwide community and collecting the feedback. They have also launched the official ILDFF website, where you can request the rulebook and learn more about the missions of the federation.

    #10 - Tech talk wit Paul and Felix

    In episode 10 Felix and Paul get to talk about one of the things they love most about longboarding: the technical details. They answer all the technical questions you had like: "What part of your board should you replace first?", "How many parts is a longboard made of?" and  "What is this rake people talk about?". This episode is a bit different since we don't have a guest who we're interviewing. Let us know how you liked this style of episode and if there is anything else you want to know!
