(probably mentioned all of these earlier, but...)
-Never owned any of these, but I so longed for phantom, kreeper and webb trucks, as well as bulletproof and aircraft boards.
-Only skate-oriented thing my dad ever got me was a powell monster board complete from ccs. They still send me catalogs to this day.
-Owned both Chany shoes when he was on Converse, as well as adidas torrents since you could find all of the above at Zumiez outlets or even Fred Meyers for $15.
-Before I could ollie I'd justify doing bonelesses, boneless finger-flips and other mockeries of real skateboarding by telling people I only skate "oldschool". If
I'd continued on that wayward path, I could easily have become Doug Brown.
-Beaming the cam for the first couple years I was introduced to filming with friends.
-The ability to do hardflips every which way, all spinning perfectly vertical and occasionally flipping the wrong way as intended ala T-Bone.
-Hardflip late-flips.
-Hardflip stink-bug finger-flips.
-Bennihanna shuvits and fingerflips.
-Lazy or "willie" grinds.
-Not touching my local miniramp until my very late teens.
-Member of the Illenium Sticker Flow Team.
-Fury trucks.
-Jnco's, wallet chains and Korn shirts.
-Filming at parks (with seriousness)
-Stair counting.
