All things Skateboarding in this thread.
Favorite Spots.
Preferred Brand of Deck, shoes, wheels, trucks, and bearings.
Favorite Skate video/part.
And what you enjoyed skating the most (as in tranny, street)
Also if you have any photography or videos of your skating post it here.

I loved skating whittier high school (when I lived there) they had a seven stair with a kinked rail really fun to skate over and a 9 stair.

I rode enjoi/almost decks most of the time, wear half cabs and chukka lows, active wheels, independent trucks and speed demon abec 7 bearings,

Favorite video Emerica this is skateboarding.

I always love skating skate parks just cruising around learning new tricks, and manual pads and ledges were the best.

(Discuss and post pics of anything skating.)

I haven't skateboarded in over a year and sold my deck for car parts.

smh

xpertsnowcarver · 10-25-2010, 12:10 AM

Damn. I used to be into skateboarding. But, now I just use it to drag my friends low-profile jack back and forth between our houses, lol.

Its probably 10 years old now.. It's that Zero "Dying to Live" board with the half skull graphic. Had the match wheels, Black Panther bearings, and Fury trucks. I may use it to get around the block for something, but that's about it.

also if you ever get new skate shoes, get Addidas or whatever, i had a pair for so long and i never got a hole in them and the bottoms didnt blow out. they where amazing.lol

RNGWLD · 10-25-2010, 02:04 AM

Baker made me quit skateboarding.

Everytime a friend showed me one of their vids (baker3g etc etc) I felt like throwing up.

Just the mention of antoine dawdson or whatever the fuck his name is makes me sick.

Black Label was the greatest. Ever.
Label Kills and Blackout...fuck yeah. And anything by the Chief. And Kenny Reed.

soreballz · 10-25-2010, 06:28 AM

We had a thread just like this a little over a year ago... Oh well.

Favorite Spots: Parks Junior High, Fullerton, CA - lots of footage for many of Blind's videos was shot there. Tons of perfect ledges and huge stair sets.

Preferred Brand of Deck: Flip and Zero
Wheels: Spitfire
trucks: GK, but liked Fury and Destructo a lot as well.
bearings: Black Panthers and Swiss Bones, but only bought SB's once since they're quite pricey.
Shoes: eS Koston K1, DVS Revival, Osiris Troma

Favorite Skate video/part: Zero's Thrill of it All.
Favorite terrain: Street: gaps and ledges

ZX88 · 10-25-2010, 07:36 AM

All I ever rode was black label and prefered shoe was etnies or emerica.

Otto347 · 10-25-2010, 07:36 AM

Started skating when I was 14, then quit when I was 21/22 and just started again at 30. It took a few months to get back to "normal" but then I broke two ribs on a wall ride and have taken a few months off lol

Shoes:
Adio
DVS
Sneaux

Rocking the Rob Welsh Expedition Deck

Brian · 10-25-2010, 10:52 AM

Yes, there was another skateboarding thread... maybe even a couple of them.

I skated for years but never got good for some reason. I mainly enjoyed jumping over little gaps or whatnot. Loved frontside boardslides on flatbars too.

Used to skate the El Dorado park somewhat often (The Huntington park too). Skated all around the streets back then. Quit at 18 after my car accident.

My last board was a Jerry Hsu enjoi which I got when I was 18. blank wheels, Indy truck, don't know what bearings.
My first board was the Girl Koston deck that looked like a radio. After that got a Guy mariano girl deck.

Mostly liked Toy Machine and Flip.
I don't have a single skate video on DVD, they are all VHS. My oldest one I know of is 411 issue 25. My newest one is... Baker2G probably. Love Welcome to Hell and Jump Off A Building. I have the orignal landspeed copy of the CKY video. I just found out that this version is apparently rare.

Lately I've been watching the videos on THE BERRICS. pretty cool stuff. I'm amazed how good and consistant the guys are. I remember skating with Adrian Lopez (of Zero) way back in the day at the Huntington park and he couldn't land anything at all. I wondered how long it took him to film his part in the video. lol.

Skated with Brian Sumner one time at El Dorado. That dude was GOOD. flowed through the whole park hitting everything along the way.

franklin93zx · 10-25-2010, 01:46 PM

I love watching the videos on the berrics, sad that they canceled butteryass mondays though...

And baker 2 g? Geez Brian that came out years before I started skating, still a sick video.

Too who ever said antwon makes him sick GTFO he has steez, but I love Black Label I skated with Adam Alfaro quite a few times he's a super cool guy

Also I apologize for making a already existing thread.

soreballz · 10-25-2010, 03:16 PM

Frank Hirata taught me how to ollie... I think that was 1993.

Holy fuck I'm old.

Brian · 10-25-2010, 03:44 PM

Frank Hirata. lol. I recognize that name.

chiboy002 · 10-25-2010, 03:46 PM

anyone wanna buy a one-of Osiris signed deck? I need $ for tires

lol
i still have my DGK deck though, i was so good with them

Dirty Habit · 10-25-2010, 04:27 PM

I actually picked up my board and started skating again two weeks ago. At 28 Ill let you know it hurts a hell of a lot more when you slam now, than it did when I skated 10 years ago.
Theres so many awesome parks out there now, too. I'm enjoying carving in the bowls and doing coping tricks alot more now than I used to.
Anyways, Guy Mariano was the best. Everyone knows it.

240zach · 10-25-2010, 04:35 PM

Battle at the berrics ftfw!!!

gzer750 · 10-25-2010, 05:05 PM

favorite skater kareem cambell, favorite spot was 97-01 lockwood school with the hips. and favorite vids are the mouse, trilogy, 20 shot sequence, and the paco video.

gzer750 · 10-25-2010, 05:13 PM

no other brand bothers me more then DGK, i hate seeing those kids running around with "I <3 haters" or the new one "I <3 biters" stickers, shirts, and hats.
