MrChupacabra Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 i have a Baker Jim Greco board, worn out tensor mids, and wheels that started at 52s, but i've been riding them for about 2 years, and they're probably down in the mid to low 30s now. I used to skate quite a bit. Was never very good at anything technical, but i had a ton of fun just cruising and half cabing and 180ing gaps. I didn't skate at all this summer though. Snowboarding on the other hand, i'm still a very big fan of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earmuffs Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Originally posted by im not witty@Nov 30 2004, 01:38 PM thats absolutely ridiculous. you could substitute all those things in the bike category into skateboarding a million times over. plus blinged out urban skaters, plus hesh tight pant van halen skaters. plus every other dumb clothing/music related label in the world. and besides most of the bikers on here are not goatee peircing people, they are track bike fixie nerds, with indy rock hair and messenger bags. or i would assume.

fermentor666 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I got on my little brother's skateboard last year and skated down the street.

Chance Em Redy Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I just buy blanks and design em myself. I dont see why a board has to cost almost 20 bucks more just for graphics(compared to blanks), or why i should pay that much in the first place..

Guest Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Originally posted by EarMuffs@Dec 1 2004, 02:59 AM I hate kickflips.... been a heelflip guy all my life.. I totally agree. Something about the movement of the kickflip just doesnt feel right. I learned how to heelflip a long long LONG time ago when one-footers were still the big thing. Just push that foot forward and SPLAT.... heelflip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
