I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

X rays of the board reveal underneath the painted surface that Kurt performed many back disasters and front lips judging by the location of the marks and the texture left by the surfaces in which he ground. Samples taken from the deep end tiles at his reported favorite Seattle pools also match the chemical composition of the paint on the original sims graphic. The striations of accumulated wax on the coping also match and are in line with the date in which Kurt would have “shredded” these pools. Novoselic has also confirmed that Kurt performed high speed “five oh” grinds and was searching for pivot cups and a new hanger. Unfortunately, his life was cut short before he made it to his local and his stomach was upset so he never made it to a shop while on tour.

Lmao.

Heart shaped fun-box

Edit: a fellow slapper recommended a book about nirvana in the Riley thread. I read it and was surprised to read Courtney gave away Kurt’s clothes and possessions to the group that she addressed that had assembled to mourn Kurt.

Also anybody see that new Batman. Thought of Kurt rolling in his grave lol

Well done. I was trying to come up with something but this is it.

Fun Fact: Read an interview with Francis Bean once where she said Territorial Pissing was the only Nirvana song she liked and of course Ryan Smith uses that song in Dying to Live. Francis is a skate rat.

Looks like a 1st generation Jeff Phillips deck, Gullwing Pro IIIs (w/ non-Gullwing or homemade coper). 360 dome skid plate would have been obsolete. Unsure of the wheels, definitely reversible (Sims Nitros, Crossbones, or Blurrs).

Is this a record for a skateboard? The most I’ve seen is that OG Tommy Guerrero that went for 17K last year.
