those are defiantly my favorite tranny tricks. i've been trying to practice them just on flat ground to eventually i can get them on the tranny.

if i had a car i would drop the money on a season pass to this indoor park that's a 45 minute drive away and setup a vert board, which considering the size of my board it would probably be the same thing, pad up, and then learn how to skate vert all winter. considering i have no car and work fulltime and the lack of transition on the massachusetts north shore, i am stuck in my room waiting to go get drunk. i'd easily pass up getting drunk and partying to be able to skate like that

i skated indoor vert today, but the ramp was so slippery i couldn't really do any of my tricks without fishtailing and eating total shit. the best vert ramps are the outdoor ones because you don't have to worry about them being slippery.

heckler · « **Reply #2109 on:** December 19, 2009, 10:02:35 PM »

Pine tree? I'm pretty sure they do.

tonysean · « **Reply #2110 on:** December 19, 2009, 10:04:19 PM »

i'm gonna go buy some then i can't stand seeing the tree and not smelling the smell. this is going in "things you are not stoked on".

yea instead of ornaments cover the whole tree with the hanging car air fresheners. best idea ever seriously right after buying a tree that actually smells like it should.

as a "street skater" who grew up without any actual transition i can't tell the differences between slippery vert ramps and ones that aren't slippery. if it's anything like skating a prefab mini ramp and a metal mini then i can see what you mean. being able to actually skate vert is one of the things i want to do before i die

skating transition seems so fast and so rad if you are good at it

Right now i'd like to just be able to get air over the coping even on a mini. Ollies on transition have always put me on my ass.

hey buddy where you been, haven't heard from you in a while

Stopped posting regularly a while ago, mainly due to an injury. My plan was to avoid anything skateboard related. Didn't really work out, oh well. Your footy reminded me that the first new thing I need to learn when I'm back on board fully are backlips on ledges. Good stuff man!

thanks dude, what happened injury wise?
