Why not rim brakes, or disc brakes for that matter? Other than lock up which you can control. And why do you need that over e brakes?

I don't know how you'd mount a rim brake on a tiny longboard wheel.

Disk brakes seem feasible.

I'm not a long board person, I don't know what the state of the art is here.

Like you would on an old wagon, something that pushes down on the wheel top.
