Righto, who here pushes the wooden wheely thingo?
Post some pics up of your gear, or any pics of you having a go..

Have a chat about new parks, parts, or how much angle your arm got from falling down the bowl lol... whatever

Ive been skating for yonks, longer than i can remeber... but on a very casual basis.
This is my current board

i skated about 3 or so years ago, would go to the skate park almost every day after school and just not get any better so lost interest in it, also fucked my knee in the 1/4 pipe and that injury still lingers around today :(

Been skating for like... 7 years

Verdict, I'm still crap haha, I used to really be into jumping down stairs and handrails, but decided I need my legs for driving, now I mostly do ledges and manual pads or skateparks. I've got some videos somewhere, and this is the only pic I found.

Btw, you guys got some wicked pics..

Used to skate a bit in the later years of Primary school. Stopped due to mates moving on and bikes :soldier: Still have always taken an interest in skating whilst not riding! Now that iv finished VCE and have some free time on my hands im keen to skate again a bit... Mostly want to ride the local bowls, not really interested in grinds and kickflips etc.

But i really have a passion for retro/ol skool skating! Got a collection of old skateboards scuh as Webers, Surfer Sams and Golden Breeds. I ride 'em now and again but i love finding them and wanting to know their history! If only the boards could talk...

One of my projects for the holidays is to build a long board!

Yeah that park is pretty sweet.

I used to skate forever ago until i saw the light. I steal some kids boards from time to time and have a skate.

i got a mad deck, never got that good, skated for about 6 months, spent like $300 on a deck and i never really used it that much. i'll get a pic up in a sec

and no i have no action shots, i'm shit haha

Flip deck
Independent trucks
Element Bearings
Mystery Wheels

I should probably try and start up again but way to busy with other stuff, haven't used the deck in months

haha i have seen some skaters getting around in jeans that must have taken a few hours to squeeze into.

this is the only pic i can find of me skating recently but ive skated for close to ten years now. i used to skate every day, every single fucking day for years and years, it was my passion and i loved it and still do. im nowhere near as good as i was cause i only skate once a fortnight (if that) now but i still enjoy it and there are some tricks that ill never lose


pic is at Monster Skatepark at the sydney olympic centre. its not a bad park when the kiddies arent there.

my fave park is definitley waterloo though, i love that place cause its close to redfern so the kids arent allowed to go there.

that park looks nice man, i like the look of the little fun box. ive skated with Skunk(purple shirt) before and the guys is awesome on ramp.

is ballina around the gold coast?? about 8 months ago i went up to the goldy with a mate and we skated a few parks within an hour of the gold coast, ive got a feeling pac pines might have been one of them cause it rings a bell. my mate who lives up that way sent me some plans for a full street plaza as well that looks mad. and i also heard Cairns has a really big and good park.

i need to do another qld trip i think

monster park fails as soon as a kid walks in i recon.. i understand they have every right to be there aswell but when you going hell quick and they walk infront of you it sucks ass. plus the park is pritty shit for the money spent!
