Re: RE: Skateboarding

You would prefer Girls instead of Blacklabels?

The guys i know in my school skate on a Blacklabel, and they can do really good tricks.

That's because they've practiced enough that they can do whatever on any board. It's not the board, it's how you skate it.

Oh yeah, hopefully I'll have a video of me doing a one-foot noseslide up soon. We got it on film, I just have to wait for my friend to cut and upload it.

RE: Re: RE: Skateboarding

I got used to my old board and when I switched over to my new deck it was sort of weird for the first ten minutes. I couldn't kickflip my new board because the old one was like 8 inches. The new one is like 7, and that made a big difference for me. I skate street around here in Latrobe. I usually go to the curbs and ollie, kickflip, heelflip, and an occasional varial. I remember this one time at Latrobe Elementary School. They have this awesome 4-set. I tried to kickflip it, with only landing like 10 kickflips up to that date. It took three tries, but I landed it. And ever since then I can do kickflips very easily. But, those stupid nollies are impossible I swear...

RE: Re: RE: Skateboarding

I haven't skated in forever, with school and everything its hard to ever get out anywhere. All I can do is kickflips, heelflips, shuvs, 180, and stairs. Grabs of course if I go off a launch or a transfer. I never learned how to drop in well because when I tried I fell a bunch and it the transfer is way too steep. Bleh. I can drop in on mini ramps ;_;
Bones ive broken(I sucks lawl): humerous- trying to grind some rail. thumb- manual gap and hit a rock wtf
lately I've been biking(freeriding not stupid bmx) and it's a lot of fun. Not like skateboarding but you can get a big rush shooting over stairs on a bike and riding away real quick so security doesn't beat you up XD can't do that on a skateboard
long post :<

RE: Re: RE: Skateboarding

I used to skate A LOT, but recently stopped due to swimming and other things that take up time. I used to be pretty good, could do the standard flip tricks and small stair sets.. around 5 stairs at most.

Thats hot. I'm looking for a camara to get me doing some shit. I've done a one-foot noseslide a few times, but never on video, that has to feel great. funniest thing that happened recently when I was skating, well over the summer, I was at the dc skate plaza and totally fuxed up a kickflip 50-50, overflipped into a darkslide and somehow landed it. some little kid came up to me and was like "WOAH you can darkslide? that amazing!" or something like that. I was just like "Yeeaaa (sarcasm)". Mabye I'll upload some photos if I can get them from my friend.

Also, couldn't find a pic of my board online, Its the ZERO - ChrisCole War board.

RE: Re: RE: Skateboarding

I also want to try a nosecrail(Tailgrab Noseslide), but I didn't get the chance to today.

Also, my current biggest stair is a 9 stair.

RE: Re: RE: Skateboarding

I was never videotaped when I was skateboarding. My friends they made a video and edited and stuff. I think I got like a 30 second piece. And it was me kickflipping down a 4-set. THen I think I rode off of that and then I grinded some circle rail. (that was hard, I am used to flat rails.) I was thinking about getting a video camera and taping some stuff.

RE: Re: RE: Skateboarding

I skate with a $19.99 Wal-mart board. So mexican. XD



seriously. thats the board i started off with cause my parents didnt want me to go out and buy my own Zero board that cost 119.87

i've been skating for about 5 years now. use to skate the expensive pro models and get a new one every year, but since i've started breaking htem more often i've gone to turbo blanks. they're canadian maple decks in various neon colors i get form ebay, at 10 bucks apiece they're great for cheapos.

i live up in maine so the skating isn't really fantastic. there's not too much to skate, and what there is has been thrashed so bad it's nearly haggard beyond skating. nothing a few sheets of plywood and 3 pounds of wax can't fix though.

i guess that's all i have to say about that...

Here's a few pics off my new camara. I found out that we can shoot vids on it, so if I can find a way to edit them better, I'll post some. for now, here are a few pics of Whitey and Me skating in the snow . So far we have one vid clip, its about 5 secs long, and it is of Whitey falling on a popshuvit because of the snow. Its pretty funny. Hopefully we can get some more footage and get it online soon.

Whitey - Kickflip, I think

Whitey - Impossible...Mabye...

Me - Bombdrop, couldn't do anytrick in my snowboard boots
I took most of the pics, so there aren't many of me yet.
