setting up a new board, going to a spot I didn't ride for about a year now, doing wallie over everything and discovering new quickfeet lines to do.

I did some railslides after not skating the past month due to knee tweak. Also, my 4 year old son finally let go of me and rolled solo. That felt even better.

Had the thought of leaving my hole to go skate... i enjoyed that

dirtyweemidden · « **Reply #485 on:** August 13, 2012, 03:50:31 AM »

i particularly enjoyed trying to kickflip over an 8 stair rail for the best part of an hour only to leave broken shoe'd, broked deck'd and heelbruised to buggery

i enjoyed hanging up on a bs disaster for the first time in over ten years and slamming to my hip and elbow in the flat. i got properly served.

Fat fakie ollies over stuff.

I can feel to this

Also, crisp back 180 over rail. The kind where you feel it come up and sweep the last 90 with your back foot.

I set up my board with these huge green soft-wheels, kryptonics i got off a set of rollerskates. After a heated solo rush though downtown with the hot summer sidewalk (and the jocks-jeering), a breezy cruise at the skatepark ensued. I particularly enjoyed the soundlessness of the ride, save the soft purr of the bearings, the absence of necessity to push and the possibility to just hover, float and glide.

Found a decent skatepark here in Rhode Island. There were kids on scooters, people sitting on shit that I would like to skate, and overwaxed rails but I still had a good ass time. Pretty excited to go again tomorrow and then leave Rhode Island to go back home to VA.

this was yesterday but oh well. woke up, smoked weed, drove an hour, stacked clips with the homies, drove to the coast hung out by the water, drove back home, smoked hella weed.

Met up with a dude I haven't skated with in a while. we've skated the park but not a real spot. We were at our shitty little park when he was like "Dude, I want to film something but I don't know what". Jokingly, I said "Just hardflip a set" to which he replied "how about that 8 stair we used to skate". We went there and he got it done in less than 10 tries. That's what I love about this dude, he can not skate for a good month and then hardflip a set no problem. sorry about the size of this picture. and yeah, he did it in vans eras.

I finally learned how to do a bs 360 of flat without pivoting

the goat cheese of Mendes · « **Reply #494 on:** September 30, 2012, 08:04:16 AM »

First session on a vert ramp, padless (which is not really smart, for a first time).
I was super stoked, just by dropping and doing some shitty 5.0/powerslides on the coping, both sides.
Can't wait to go back, and try some real things.

back tails. feels so good.

myrrh · « **Reply #496 on:** September 30, 2012, 12:39:33 PM »

Had not skated for a week or so. So just pushed fast and did a lot of basic stuff to get the feel back. It feels amazing when it has been a while.

cruising the town after dark on the old school setup (10.25 w/ 64mm g-bones), doing powerslides in leaf piles and shredding the plaza parking lot doing wallies off curbs and manualing around. super fun. one of the many reasons I love skateboarding

DBrown901 · « **Reply #498 on:** September 30, 2012, 07:16:24 PM »

Skated at the local shop today. Trying to slowly get back into skating, rolled my ankle recently. Landed nollie inward heels, tres, nollie flips, and a nollie hardflip today.
I felt pretty happy about it all.

THREE HOT BIMBOS & ME ALONE IN THE SKATEPARK UNDER A FULLMOON

I just moved into a new pad, grabbed my board & went hunting
for spots. Just skating new terrain is amazing.

Mat · « **Reply #501 on:** September 30, 2012, 10:00:23 PM »

not today, but yesterday i got a clip first try at the park. nothign special, but i rarely film anything so first try was rad

Hamish · « **Reply #502 on:** October 01, 2012, 03:21:25 AM »

This wasn't today, but I had nothing to do on Saturday so I walked for about half an hour so I could bomb one long hill. It's mellowish, but still hella fun.

dirtyweemidden · « **Reply #503 on:** October 01, 2012, 04:11:53 AM »

the polished granite manual pad they just built at the top of my street... buttery smooth!

finknoos · « **Reply #504 on:** October 01, 2012, 05:29:00 AM »

landed a kickflip first try, always a sign of a good skate to come

had a really fun gam of skate with all kinds of weird tricks

meeting new people

not hurting myself

GershonSweaty · « **Reply #505 on:** October 01, 2012, 07:11:45 AM »

Skating down the street getting shouted at by some guy and another random dude shouting "Leave him be Dick!!!"

MuchasGracias · « **Reply #506 on:** October 01, 2012, 07:37:27 PM »

Just cruising around the streets while its dark. That feeling where its just you and your board, doing little ollies, manuals and what not. Such a chill feeling. I wuv skateboarding!

yeahmmm · « **Reply #507 on:** October 01, 2012, 07:53:16 PM »

Not getting hurt is #1 for me at the end of the day no matter how good or bad the session was.

Buddy from back west flew out for the weekend & we checked out Flushing for the first time, which was fucking awesome. So fun to finally get to skate the fountain - what a cool spot. And the Maloof Course is pretty amazing as well, although too crowded for me. I'll come back when the little fuckers are in school.

Last night, was skating around Midtown & spent about 10 minutes trying this kickflip over a chain into a janky little bank thing & had the awesome experience of finally sticking it right as the security guard was rushing out to shitcan me... love when that happens.

Also: there were two cops standing right in front of me the entire time who didn't even glance at me. Fucking love New York...

The bank at columbia?
