so me and  my bro were thinking,
what if you could take the grind zone from a roller blade,
and put it on a shoe?
then you could just be walkin down the street and you ould grind a rail or sumthing?
wat do you guys think

Haha, I was in middle school when they were a trend. It was probably around the same year though as I am a few years older.

I remember my friend had them, and I thought they were the shit. I couldn't convince my parents to buy them for me though. I was bummed.

I'd give you more karma, but it just won't let me rate you more than a 10.

at my old school we used to put socks over our shoes and sesh the  14 ish stair handrails. We would do tonnes of shit like blindside and frontside 270 out, 450 out , switch ups...... when we would sesh it out there would be huge crowds of people watching and this would block the hallways and stairs. it was awsome for the 4 days that it lasted until wearing socks over shoes became illegal. i miss thouse days
