WHY DO A LONG DISTANCE TRIP?
Let me tell you straight up, it's a PRETTY STUPID IDEA. Skating is not as fast as a biking, not as energy efficient, road pavement effects you more, can't cover as much variety of terrain and cars absolutely hate you. I guess it is faster than walking, probably easier than rollerblading and uni-cycling would be a nightmare. Now what about pogo sticking, hahah.
Anyways, why long distance skate? Because it turns out it is an extremely enjoyable way of self-torture, I am not sure why.
Below are TIPS TO HELP YOU FIGURE OUT A DISTANCE SKATING TRIP OF YOUR OWN. I do not have all the answers, I am still learning myself. These are my opinions and advice that I have formed from the trips I have done. You could disagree.
EACH TRIP IS ITS OWN BEAST.
为什么要搞长途滑板？
实话告诉你：“这么做其实很傻”。滑板不像单车快而高效，路面状况对你的影响更直接，能滑的地形更少，而且汽车绝对恨死你了。我猜，它应该比走路快那么一点，可能比旱冰更容易一点，而骑独轮车的话就太悲催了。那么跳跳杆呢？哈哈。
话说回来，到底为什么搞长途滑板？因为它被证明是一种带有强烈快感的自虐方式，我也不知道是为什么。
以下是“帮你规划你自己的长途滑板之旅的小贴士”。我不是全知全能的；我自己也还在学习中。这些都是根据我滑行的经历总结出来的想法和建议。你可以不同意。
“每个旅程都能玩死你”。
SOLE REASONS "NOT" TO GO ON A LONG DISTANCE TRIP
绝对“不能”作为上路的理由的：
-to prove something to someone (going to need more motivation than that to make it through the tough days)
-want to escape problems at home (problems at home may get better but they are still going to be there or worse)
-you want to brag about it when you get home (hmmm being humble is better)
-want to get better at longboarding (you will get better at pushing, but it is KEY you have good boarding skills before you go becaues it is very easy to die, if you want to get better skate around your neighborhood)
-you want to figure out your life and come back with an answer (you can do some life thinking but take it from me out of all the 4 trips I have done no one, including myself has figured out their answer to life)
-you want to come back a changed person (you will change but don't have high expectations, take the trip as is)
1) 为了向别人证明你有多牛B（在行程不顺的阶段只有这点动力是不够的）
2) 为了逃避家里的问题（家里的问题也许会在你不在的时候好转，但你回家的时候它们依然存在，也许还会变得更糟）
3) 为了回家以后吹牛B（呃，低调点比较好）
4) 为了改善滑板技术（你会“蹬”得更好，但最最关键的是在你出发之前就要有很好的技术，否则很容易挂掉。如果要改进技术，在你家小区里滑滑）
5) 你想寻找人生真谛（你可以在路上思索一下人生，不过听我说，在我所做的4次旅行里，没有人，包括我自己，想出了人生的真谛）
6) 你想以全新的面貌示人（你肯定会改变，不过不要期望太高。旅程是什么样就是什么样，接受它就好）

SELF SUPPORTED (you carry all your own gear) or SUPPORTED (you have a car to carry your gear), which one:
独立成行（自己背装备）v.s. 有车跟随（装备放车上）：
ADVANTAGES to a SELF SUPPORTED Trip compared to a SUPPORTED TRIP
相对于有车跟随的旅程，独立成行有以下好处：
- more connected to the environment (embrace the bad weather)
- do not have to depend on a vehicle ( hurray !!! )
- not having to clean a messy vehicle ( believe me they get messy )
- costs less ( love saving money )
- do not use gas
-don't have to worry about a support vehicle driver going crazy (and yes they do go crazy)
1) 与周围环境更加亲密接触（拥抱坏天气）
2) 不用依赖一辆车（耶！）
3) 不用清理脏乱差的车厢（相信我，到最后绝对变成猪圈）
4) 省钱（我爱省钱）
5) 不费汽油
6) 不用担心开车的师傅抓狂（他们一般都会抓狂的）
DISADVANTAGES to a SELF SUPPORTED trip compared to a SUPPORTED TRIP
相对于有车跟随的旅程，独立成行有以下坏处：
- You are skating with a backpack (hahah it can be hard)
- can't cover as much distance (though who is in a rush)
- going down raging mountains is scarier (ever tried speedchecking with a backpack)
- can't carry as many crucial supplies ( no extra wheels, trucks, I mean you could but they weigh too much, if one of your items breaks you could be walking or hello mail)
- you eat crappier ( cars can carry lots of good food )
- less fear of running out of water and food ( that's nice )
- if someone gets hurt you got a car ( cars are fast )
- skating uphill is harder ( you bet it is )
1) 你必须背着个包滑板（这有时候很难）
2) 无法一次滑行太远的距离（不过谁又赶时间呢）
3) 滑下陡峭的山坡时更惊险（你试过背着个包包slide减速吗？）
4) 无法带很多重要的装备（如备用轮子和桥等等，当然你可以带，但实在太沉了。如果有什么东西坏掉了，你可能就得走路，或者等人给你寄来）
5) 吃得更屎（有车就可以带很多好吃的）
6) 不那么害怕断水断粮（这很不错）（译者注：这哥们儿是在说反话吗……）
7) 如果有人受伤你就有车坐了（车子更快）
8) 滑上山更困难（绝对的）
Doing a self support trip compared to a supported trip all depends on the person. A self supported trip requires you having knowledge about backpacking, camping, basic survival, and being able to pack smart and light. Having key gear that is lightweight is crucial to you having a good time or not.
Personally my next trip will be a SELF SUPPORTED TRIP. I find them more rewarding. It combines my 2 biggests passions backpacking/camping and skating.
要独立上路还是有车跟着取决于个人。独立上路要求你有背包旅行、露营、基本生存等方面的知识，知道如何轻巧聪明地打包。带上分量轻而关键的装备会让你有一个更好的旅程。
至于我自己，我的下一趟将会是独立成行的。我就是觉得它们更有成就感，因为我最热衷的两件事合在一块儿了：背包旅行/露营和滑板。
