and in the middle east, saw one a year or so back at the skate shop and really liked it, a baby blue dipped one if i remember right... i really liked it but i think it was either too thin or too wide... looked good.. never saw another one since

Nah, Stand and Deliver, that's just love for something that takes up most of your waking and sleeping time (you must've dreamt of doing something gnarly...). I think I'll do that if I ever give away my old decks  :)

Creature 8.26
Black Magic
Indy 139
Swiss 6 (freshly cleaned)
Autobahn 55s (brand new)
Randoms Hardware
Indy 1/8" hard risers
Bones Hardcore soft bushings

I'm psyched; this board feels like a Cadillac. Sorry, no pics - I don't have a camera.

well so far its been like a month and a half and no flat spots as of yet... i've had hubbas that flat spotted within a month, so i guess these are holding up pretty well. btw darkstar wheels "guarantee no flatspots" and i've yet to see any signs of them.

rolling is good

TNT2's for sure, had two pairs and both are amazing
the AVera is a cupsole so i guess it has its advantages and it doesnt look too good in person

A couple of years back, I thought it would be a good idea to save all my boards for a full year; from Thanksgiving to Thanksgiving.  After that, I shot a photo of them all up against the wall and then brought them to the park and gave them to random kids, or whatever.  Since I don't ride them very long, that usually stokes someone out.  It makes me feel better to do something sort of philanthropic for all the times I gave the park kids dirty looks for getting in my way.   ;)

Now, I think I'm gonna switch it up.  Even though I only have a few photos of actual set-up's, I think that by using the photos I take for this thread, I can keep the boards documented and still be able to free up some space in my garage.  I just think it's a pretty cool trip down memory lane when you can look back and be reminded by the board that you skated on a trip somewhere.  Anyone else do shit like this?

it's cool that you do that. we have a thing here where we give our used stuff to kids at the park, they give their stuff to younger kids, etc...

sharing shoes and stuff is a great way to help your scene become tight-knit. its been a few years since anyone's given me product, but I love the feeling of giving away stuff to people who need it moreso than receiving stuff

Last weekend, I gave ten boards and ten sets of wheels away.  It was kind of a trip to see kids riding my old boards, but I must have had three or four more kids ask me if I had any more.  It was a good feeling.
