Kiwi Rob Thomson has been on the longest skateboard journey ever recorded. His odyssey actually started on a bicycle, which he peddled on from Japan to Switzerland - a distance of 12,000 kilometres.

But In June last year he sent his bicycle home and started out again on four wheels.

Currently Rob is in Hong Kong and has so far crossed the US, Europe, the Middle East and parts of China.

The skateboarder took time-out from his adventure and spoke to Campbell Live on the ups and downs of his impressive feat.
