Skateboarding?

<< < (3/15) > >>

negative creep:
I bought a very cheap board 2 years ago, tried to skate for a while, then broke it. Now I can't afford to buy a new one.

PS: All the "skaters" I know are really nice, well-behaved people.

Dimmukane:
I don't skate, but I have a friend who got sponsored by a local rideshop.  They just had a premiere, and at least two of the kids on that team should be in skate. 2 or something.

Anyways, I have few friends who skateboard, and they seem to have enough fun (but not enough to inspire me to pick it up).

Thomas Edison:
I have a skateboard, but I just use it to get around on.

I'd try and actually, y'know, be good at it, but I can just do that on EA Skate or Tony Hawk's.

Chesire Cat:
I longboard and its amazing, the exhilaration of zooming down the streets while effectively standing still (when not pushing) is something I just cant describe.  Unfortunately its something I didnt take with me when I moved from the Prairies to Montreal, though it should be getting sent to me within a couple of weeks so Ill be able to catch the tail end of summer.  Now while I own a skateboard Im certifiably shitty at it.  I never skated when I was younger and only got into it when I was about 21, the following year I got an actual longboard and have been going hard on that (this is year 3 with my longboard I believe).

My deck is a Sector 9 bamboo torpedo shaped board with clear griptape, Randal 180s trucks, 70mm wheels and whatever bearings I own that werent destroyed.
