For Placement Only Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I found this sweet little "ramp" between two parking lots last fall. Essentially they just filled in the space between with asphalt, and it happens to be roughly in the correct shape with a curb on top. It's like 2' high with super steep transition. You almost scrape your nose rolling up it. Lots of fun, but I fell pretty hard trying to learn disasters, so I went home. Way way back there was this guy with a miniramp in his back yard. I couldn't have been skating for more than a year or two. This guy was kinda old, like old enough to own a house, and my friends and i would go there every so often and skate his ramp. I hated skating there because the guy was always drunk, his ramp smelled like stale beer, and had screws sticking out everywhere. His wife was really fat and smelled too. Like cheese and body odor. Anyone know of any ramp plans for a really small QP? I'm thinking like 3' high x 8' wide. Something I could build easily, then move when I'm not using it? I built a low box, but it's kinda short. I should have made it twice as long. I might give it to these kids down the street, on the condition that they stop pushing mongo past my apartment. check a TWS within the past 3 or 4 issues. there was a how-to build a QP. it was a 4footer.

shameless self promotion Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I have not skated in so long. That EA skate game actually made me pull my board out of the closet and hit up some spots on the local campus. I think Im getting too old though, I was having trouble doing basic shit and my whole fucking body hurts today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CELT Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I didn't include my ankles because they were the 1 thing I broke outside of skating . The amazing thing is my knees are solid . I know a lot of people who's knees are totally shot and they look miserable . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAL Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 The only thing I ever hurt badly while skating was my heels, bailing down a huge double set in Rochester, NY. I only bruised the bones badly, at that. I hit so hard that I actually bounced off them. i just don't get how kids these days are kickflipping 20 stairs. I don't drink milk, so I don't know what the deal is. My ankles are both fucked now, just from rolling them a lot, but everything else seems to be in proper working order. At one point i was skating with an ankle brace, but that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAL Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I just watched a couple Nate Sherwood clips on Youtube. Word on the street is that he does oddball tricks. So, i decided that his love of pressure flips is cool, but he has absolutely no style or grace whatsoever. Is this guy pro? How does he have video parts?
