I was going to go to the San Clemente park, but didn't feel like sitting in the car for an hour.
So it's going to be either head down to Washington St. park, or maybe just roll around in the streets.

Because of the weather and some obligations, I may have to imagine myself skating, unless I get lucky and there's a session at our indoor bowl tonight.

i will be trying stationary manual tricks inside my room since it's snowing......again

I see...sounds like winter has it's evil clutches upon the skate world.
Skating parks with helmets and freeto smelling kids gets old, but it's better than nothing, most times.

Ghost Lurker · « **Reply #7 on:** December 20, 2007, 12:14:42 PM »

Bobby Peru · « **Reply #8 on:** December 20, 2007, 01:45:31 PM »

Nowhere today. Thank you snow.

Park tomorrow. New vertwall, quarters, and manny pads have been built since I moved away and I can't wait to skate them.

I have too much going on Holiday/family wise that it will again be too cold and dark by the time I could skate today. It realy sucks because it's supposed to snow tomorrow.

There are these two prefect wooden ledges right by my house at some pool store, I really wish I could put an angled iron on them or somthing but, Its too expensive to buy and coustom cut the iron.

get some measuring tape then go to a steelyard... most will cut it to whatever length you need for free, and the angle iron itself is a LOT cheaper than home depot/lowes type places

Diesel · « **Reply #19 on:** December 20, 2007, 05:18:58 PM »

Do you use like some metal apoxy to put the iron onto the wood or what?

MEOW · « **Reply #20 on:** December 20, 2007, 06:12:13 PM »

liquid nails should work fine

The steelyard in my town is about $1.50 a foot with a ten dollar minimum. this is the best way to go.

i didnt even know that place was still open. im actually talking aboput the skatepark at the church of nazerene in brighton. we had a dope scene like 6 years ago when the pastor let us put ramps in the back section of the lot. usually there was 15-20 kids there all the time, but do to new houses being built they axed the outdoors and built an indoor park which is rad but its small and super chaotic. snake or be snaked pretty much

bumptobar · « **Reply #24 on:** December 21, 2007, 08:57:38 AM »

New york city in about an hour. Ahh i cant wait to skate the banks without all the stupid goons that come around in the summer time.

applesauce · « **Reply #25 on:** December 21, 2007, 09:06:21 AM »

I'm skating this rounded ledge where you have to pop out at the end, or in the middle if you want...it's in the front of my mind...

MexicanSpaniard · « **Reply #28 on:** December 21, 2007, 03:44:01 PM »

I skated Centenial park for about 45 minutes today and then it fucking started snowing. SelfPat on back for 360 flip before it started coming down. It's 33-29 degrees and steady flurries.
