asdf_va! Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 ^^yeah. I know it's 12oz and all, but I have been on 12oz since 2000, back when Joker was in the bricklayers all the time, and trading actual photos was the deal. I never looked at Ch0 back then. Now that I am older and work on a computer all day, what better place to chill out and chat then with old school heads that grew up with similar lifestyles, not just graffiti. I like Ch0 because its the no graff talk sesh with other people my age, for the most part, that just want to shoot the shit as well. So thats part of where GrandMoff and I are coming from right now. The other part is that there is no "graffiti writer." There are "People that write graffiti.' The thread could have simply been... How many heads still play sports in their 20's. You would still get the same responses, and you wouldn't be putting a general label on your target audience that for the most part don't write. I've gotten the impression multiple times that a lot of ch0's don't write anymore. I'm SUPER cool with that. Just talk. 2 drops in the bucket...

rokstar Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I'm a pretty healty cat... so I do a good amount jogging and play sports as much as possible... but most of my homies (especially graff homies) are lazy ass alcoholics. Spring and summer gets basketball... fall gets football and hockey if I can round enough heads up. And frisbee golf everyweekend all year reguardless. Holla!

Reuben Kinkaid Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I don't think it's confined to just graffiti writers, I think in general people stop participating in organized sports once they hit their 20's. It's a lot easier to play in a competitive league when you're a kid than when you're older. I played soccer at the top level until I was like 18, and I had one, sometimes 2 games a week, conditioning twice a week, and practice every other day. There's no way older people can do that with jobs, family, etc. I fucked up my knee which is the main reason why I had to stop playing competitively. But I still play recreationally and drop-in whenever I can get a chance. As for whoever said recreational leagues are full of idiots, I agree whole heartedly. I played CO-ED rec league and dealt with more assholes, more fights, more abuse than I ever did playing competitively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asdf_va! Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 My plan is to turn directly into a Hessian and skate only pools and bowls. Maybe rock a mini ramp, but I just want to carve. As I get older, I find that ollie'ing onto a picnic table isn't easy any more. I remember watching all the old dudes with their 80's Powell with no nose and huge 65a wheels and a Budwiser in hand at all times just pumping around never getting off the ground unless it was to do quick revert, or an indy air onto the deck. I want this. It's finally time for that next step. I just need a giant comfy board with huge soft wheels and I already have several options for carving in my area. I will kick it with dudes my age, and just soul skate. Let my hair grow out, listen to slayer, and have a grill on the deck. Fucking eh right! I want to be HESSIAN Skater.

dudebra1 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 That sounds like the life.^ I stopped playing sports after high school. It had nothing to do with graffiti, I just lost interest as I transitioned in to college. Now injuries are too much to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weapon X Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I play sports, and watch sports, and live and breathe sports. But a lot of writers don't because they're too busy hating on everything. And being gay and trendy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
