i just got a new Chocolate 7.5 POPPS deck
i have been skatin for some years
i love it
ridin through the hood on a board
nothin like it
i havent busted a tre in a long time
It's good to see that there are so many skaters on here.
It's been raining all week so I haven't skated since Sunday. It's probably good though I need some time to heal, I wrecked my ankle off a 5 set. I can't wait for this summer. Last summer was awasome, smoke in the morning, skated all day, smoke at night, passed out, repeat. It's cool to see how people progress over a summer too, at the end of last summer all the kids I skate with where throwing down on handrails. This summer is gonna be nuts.
As for the skate team, I'm down for it. I'm planning on buying a new camera (last one got took by a cop in philly, and cause it had footage of us cutting kinks off handrails I didn't ask for it back) soon and filming all summer long. And it could put the myth about stoners being lazy slackers to rest.
I wish I had a camera to film.... even if we all did though what are 8 skaters all in different places gonna do as a team??????

I used to own a skateboard but since i was 13 and back then i was too prideful to disgard dares and such i skated off my roof and my dad took my board away...i wonder if he still has it >_>
I have skated since since but i really needed my a friend of mine at the time to help me.
I skate Im going to get a new pair of es on saturday Rodrigo Tx 2 in that rasta colorway
here my board about 4 days after getting it brand new...(this was taken 4 weeks ago)
and well 4 weeks later it's trashed LoL, i skate for like 4 to 6 hr's a day.
hmmm, maby it just the picture but that looks like one of the fattest decks I've ever seen lol
naw it's not that big. it's a 7.75 though i well say...
but the only difference between the reg y.5 to mine 7.75 is because it's a tab longer.
i go onverts and streets. so i got a board that's good for both. Advage Vert boards like like 8.0 to 9.0 streets are mainly 7.5

Yeah, blanks are the way to go for me. But the Element Townend Helium Deck is so mesmerizing. Also, I must try a fiber deck. Did anyone see the photos from CCS when Tosh was skating vert? He rode up the bowl landing a wallride and then landing a fakie disaster (Bane coup de grace style) stall on the lip before cruising beack in (so gnarley). He had so much momentum and the board bended so much. As of this moment, I'm applying grip tape. I hate this procedure.
damn, i thought this was a roller skating thread......bummer!
nah thats roosevelt island, a sleeper spot. stair sets and ledges galore. when i went to the banks i was kicked out in about 5 minutes. fuckin pigs. cant even skate maybe i should start robbing people.Quote:

i use to play tony hawk pro skater alot..
does that count?
everytime i tell people my cousin jumped a 20 set no one believes me but one of our friends recorded it because when he tried again his board snapped
Uploading that video is the only way you'll ever get us to believe that.
Plus, you said "jumped".
I skate..........we have no indoor parks here and I hate skating in the winter....so I only skate all the time in he summer.....havent skated in about 2 weeks now though/...il
if you dont mind me asking. where are the slide marks on your deck? no tail slide? no nose slide? no board slide? just jagged marks like you were ollieing up on a rock.Quote:

24 hrs of skating and no grinds? seams a bit wierd to me.
i would have done atleast one 50-50 grind on my new deck in 24 hrs.
you will have some clean bearings though...
in high school public communications class I did a HOW TO CLEAN your bearing presentation in class. got an A.
I've seen someone do a ollie from about 20 or maybe a few more in an issue of CCS. It's possible if you've reached pro status or are really commited to that big of a jump.
I use to skateboard. All over Holland was the best. I managed to first buy an old school Alien Workshop deck, with Santa Cruz wheels, and Gullwing trucks, I think. After that, I bought nothing but Al.W decks. I had the Partridge Family plane deck that was made by Powell, but the cheap thing snaps on me 4 days after I buy it. I still have the half of broken deck downstairs.
I don't skate anymore as I grew out of it.
i have skated with Bastien Salabanzi, Bam Margera, Mike Maldonado, Terry Kennedy, and Evan Hernandez... i still have my helmet signed by all of them... i used to film for terry when he was in philly and then send the shit to a PO box in socal.. Bastien was gettin sick of the slippery floor, and he let me break his board, then signed it, gave it to me, and walked across the street, smoked a blunt, came back, and hit the trick first go
and what the fuck are you trying to get at?Quote:

you don't fucking live in my area! so don't being saying why i don't got no grinding marks ect ect.
if you must know there's None ,zip, Nada things to grind in my neighborhood. only a few curves here and there. and granted that was 3 weeks after getting it. now it's been about a month and a half with the front end o'most complete broken because of jumping off higher type of leges, and 180ing off stairs.
you dont have to be pro to ollie a 20 set lol, there is probably someone in like every town that could do it.
I would be scared shitless to ollie from that high, lol. With my weight, there would be a slight chance of my bearings and I dieing. :confused:Quote:
