*Rail - hippy jump/skaters dream

iSkate 2.0

used to skate, mainly to relax, just coast around, could basically only kick flip gaps and small gaps on the vert. could hardflip to nose manual for like 3 days then lost it.
I spent like 3 years mastering how to ollie, i used to just coast down my driveway and have a pair of bricks that i would keep moving apart, ended up getting them pretty far apart, like towards 2m. I wasnt going that fast either. Used to get over things .5m high and stuff, but yeah, another skill lost in time.

I only ever used my skateboard as transport really. I could ollie up and down gutters and carve up bowls okay and that was about it. Got my licence and lost me fitness.

[Zach]

i do a little. can do some stupid tricks..
mainly used to get around

[ae86hachiroku]

*Rail - frontside board
*ledge - crook, nosegrinds and 5-0's.
*half pipe/quarter pipe - rock to fakie because that's all i could ever do, was so shit at vert.

Since I need my legs for driving and walking I don't do big staircases or handrails anymore. Love grinding ledges and manuals.

*manual* - kickflip manual, kickflip manual, kickflip out. I think that was the best thing ive ever done.

[breno]

bomb hills

[jay70]

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

*50/50 curb grinding
*Pop Shove It
*Was pretty good a manual'ing with a good long run up.
===========================

I skated for about 6 years and trying to getting back into it but I lose motivation LOL!

Home ground was Ballarat Harvey Norman car parks / mostly street stuff and usually end up at the skate park.

Then Riverside Skate Park in Melbourne / Southbank.

Anything street with curbs was FTW for me.

[jay70]

You laugh in the cops face then skate off?

Skating is like running, you are 2 inches higher going the same speed. Should of asked him if you needed a helmet for that

what a pole smoker.

[jay70]

lol. i was just rolling along on the footpath then he starts driving next to me for a bit then after like 20m he put on his siren and i was like FFFUUUUUU-. then he asked why i didn't stop when i saw him and i was like why would i, then he gave me a lecture and shit.

[Konakid]
