Quad kicked a 22 stair last year. Almost got a back flip out of an empty pool. Back 5-0d and ledge to a 14 ft bomb drop.

started some weeks ago, didnt have too much time so far and now winter in the alps is probably delaying me until spring.

as i said, i basically only skated a few hours, but i like it that i finally bought myself a neat board and its hella fun. right now i am just working on being able to ride fast, make those turns where you lift the front wheel up and just feel comfortable before i even remotely think of trying ollies and shit. my ankles are bullshit and i dont want to risk anything.

The chocolate/girl thing looks sick. Finally got a new deck, it actually has pop and rigidity. The new griptape hurts my thumb. Old one was a toy machine with the american monster graphic, which I want to hang on my wall cause it's not that messed up and it's sick. And the board I got was one of 2 boards under 8" in the shop.

Just curious, do all you people skate boards wider than 8"? I used to skate 7.5s, the day I got a 7.8 I couldn't do any tricks but I got used to it eventually. Looked like a total noob in the miniramp...

Screw colorado, too much snow in denver and not enough in the mountains. So i cant skate at all and weekends are ight with skiing, but i would enjoy some more snow. On the other hand, my set up is some fresh theeves (best trucks ever) 8.1 shop board, 51 bones stf, diamond hardware, and some reds bearings
