Thats hot. I'm looking for a camara to get me doing some shit. I've done a one-foot noseslide a few times, but never on video, that has to feel great. funniest thing that happened recently when I was skating, well over the summer, I was at the dc skate plaza and totally fuxed up a kickflip 50-50, overflipped into a darkslide and somehow landed it. some little kid came up to me and was like "WOAH you can darkslide? that amazing!" or something like that. I was just like "Yeeaaa (sarcasm)". Mabye I'll upload some photos if I can get them from my friend.

Also, couldn't find a pic of my board online, Its the ZERO - ChrisCole War board.

I also want to try a nosecrail(Tailgrab Noseslide), but I didn't get the chance to today.

Also, my current biggest stair is a 9 stair.

I was never videotaped when I was skateboarding. My friends they made a video and edited and stuff. I think I got like a 30 second piece. And it was me kickflipping down a 4-set. THen I think I rode off of that and then I grinded some circle rail. (that was hard, I am used to flat rails.) I was thinking about getting a video camera and taping some stuff.

I skate with a $19.99 Wal-mart board. So mexican. XD

seriously. thats the board i started off with cause my parents didnt want me to go out and buy my own Zero board that cost 119.87

i've been skating for about 5 years now. use to skate the expensive pro models and get a new one every year, but since i've started breaking htem more often i've gone to turbo blanks. they're canadian maple decks in various neon colors i get form ebay, at 10 bucks apiece they're great for cheapos.

i live up in maine so the skating isn't really fantastic. there's not too much to skate, and what there is has been thrashed so bad it's nearly haggard beyond skating. nothing a few sheets of plywood and 3 pounds of wax can't fix though.

i guess that's all i have to say about that...

Here's a few pics off my new camara. I found out that we can shoot vids on it, so if I can find a way to edit them better, I'll post some. for now, here are a few pics of Whitey and Me skating in the snow

. So far we have one vid clip, its about 5 secs long, and it is of Whitey falling on a popshuvit because of the snow. Its pretty funny. Hopefully we can get some more footage and get it online soon.

Whitey - Kickflip, I think

Whitey - Impossible...Mabye...

Me - Bombdrop, couldn't do anytrick in my snowboard boots

I took most of the pics, so there aren't many of me yet.

That kid does not even deserve to be associated with a skateboard.

Rodney Mullen is the absolute god of (street) skateboarding.

**scottish** · 12-5-2005, 09:16 PM

Absolute.

Not totally, he barely even skates street. All he ever does is tech tricks. There are better "street" skaters.

Afrobean · 12-6-2005, 07:44 PM

...

It all depends on your definition of "street."

Rodney Mullen literally skates street. He does an awesome job of it too. Much more impressive than those losers throwing themselves down big stair sets.

The sad thing is that for most people "street" means those stupid stair sets, rather than standard real street terrain. Sure, those sets do appear in street skating, but to only consider something street if it involves a stair set (which is uncharacteristic of actual street skating) is ignorant.

And, actually, from what I've seen of Mullen on stairs, he's quite skillful at them. No, he doesn't ollie 50 stairs, but I'd say an impressive flip down a medium size set is more impressive than a simple ollie on a huge gap.

why would someone carefully edit a video so incriminating?
