A damn lot. I just got back from skating flatground.

cold budweisers · « **Reply #31 on:** October 22, 2007, 03:22:20 PM »

not very long. i don't have enough patience for that shit anymore and have no real desire to learn any new flatground tricks either. i lost all of the ones i used to be able to do anyway. now i just like cruising around, going fast, doing ollies and kickflips.

tysj · « **Reply #32 on:** October 22, 2007, 03:27:59 PM »

Whenever I want! Depends on the spot I guess. I know I totally lost kickflips though. Switchflips are waaay better than regular ones if I do say so myself.

I need to put more work on flat. It's dumb that I get kicked out of vacant parking lots here in S.D. There's a couple good parking lots in Liberty Station, but these fake cops give me the boot too often.

I wouldnt exactly call it "working", but i try to try a new trick everytime i skate..if i start to get worked up or stressed ill stop trying it tho and just go back to cruzing.

All i've been skating for about the past 2 months is flatground.

i have a couple flatground sessions every week. in a way it's like the purest form of skating, u and ur board and the pavement/concrete/polished marble floor/flat, stiffened corpses of the enemy hordes

my flatground spot has things to skate over, up, down and off so its always fun.

my street is pretty nice, i live in the middle. it's slightly downhill so a push or two and you maintain speed and could actually make it to the end of the street. not to mention a few neighbors on the opposite sides have banked driveways.

i`ve been wondering lately how much time Rodney spends on them these days?? Whats he up to?

toonie · « **Reply #43 on:** October 23, 2007, 03:13:41 AM »

i skate flatground more then anything, people have taken me to the skatepark and i'll just skate flat there for the whole time, the other times i'll just skate the ledges, the hip and this little jersey barrier type thing we have. any other spot is just ledges, little curbs and flatground, so all around it's flatground the most. i just have fun cruising around doing fakie flips, switch flips, shove its and whatever else

flatground is the most fun, although i get more frustrated skating flat then anything else it seems

stagefright · « **Reply #44 on:** October 23, 2007, 04:03:53 AM »

pretty much never, its pretty depressing not being able to do shit after years of trying, but this winter im hoping to go every day or so to an underground and just learn

Monsters Inc. · « **Reply #45 on:** October 23, 2007, 04:58:38 AM »

Flatground is the best, gimme a good car park and some mates and i could play games of skate all day.

mipe · « **Reply #46 on:** October 23, 2007, 09:31:55 AM »

It took me something like 2 or 3 years to learn proper tre flip.
Now I'm happy.

FTW · « **Reply #47 on:** October 23, 2007, 10:30:57 AM »

flatground is cool

Raw!!! · « **Reply #48 on:** October 23, 2007, 11:06:47 AM »

As winter comes it's definitely a lot more.

picklesickshuv-it · « **Reply #49 on:** October 23, 2007, 07:23:54 PM »

if you are hating on flatground try and learn 360s, then do it switch. probobly one of the most satisfying things is landing a flat, popped 360. fs or bs

Flatground is pretty frusturating.

Peter · « **Reply #51 on:** October 23, 2007, 07:43:10 PM »

2 or 3 games of skate per day.

Noseblunted · « **Reply #52 on:** October 23, 2007, 08:08:07 PM »

I try to skate flatground everyday. I'm getting switch tres down and I just learned how to fronside pop out of bluntstalls on parking blocks. Skateboarding is tight.

skatelife7 · « **Reply #53 on:** October 23, 2007, 08:32:58 PM »

everyday for about an hour, sometimes ill be skating flat before going out to a spot and just end up skating flat for like 2 hours..i dont think i could get ever get sick of flatground..

artichoke · « **Reply #54 on:** October 23, 2007, 08:53:24 PM »

I really need to get back into it. I've been slacking like crazy because i'm coming off an injury and have been busy with school, but my pop and flick look like shit. I need to spend some time on the basketball courts and get back into the swing of things.

bumptobar · « **Reply #55 on:** October 24, 2007, 10:30:39 AM »

I rarely dedicate a time of day to just flat, but at the same time im constantly pratcieing it.

Beautifull · « **Reply #56 on:** October 24, 2007, 12:51:49 PM »

I don't spend time on the flat ground except for when i'm playing o.u.t. Other wise I'm too busy taking it to the next level(rails, ledges, ramps). But you've gotta start somewhere right?

sweatloaf · « **Reply #57 on:** October 24, 2007, 12:58:28 PM »

1 attempt every 3 years

jesus0nvi4gra · « **Reply #58 on:** October 24, 2007, 01:50:29 PM »

60% of my skating is probably flatground. I love playing SKATE.

Half hour atleast.
