Skateboarding!!!

[WMX:V3]

Who Skateboards around here? I know someone does...I forgot their name(curse my mind)...anyways does anybody else?

Post what kind o' board you got, tricks you've done, tricks you've screwed up really bad, gaps, biffs, etc.

Anyways the tricks I can do is an ollie, kickflip, pop shove it, and biff. I have an off-brand board, Kryptonics. It's sweet for an off-brand...high quality grip-tape and wood(maple), concaved, and it actually the right size for me... It's got 54 mm wheels, nice trucks, and blood on the board(yes real. I biff ALOT).

The only problems that I have is biffing. According to my friend Chris, I "biff with extreme prejudice." I tried to do a kickflip and I landed on the back of my board, the board went out from under me, and I flipped over. Yes flipped. Backwards. Ouch.

So...yeah. Get 'er done!

Kickflips are dangerous... Cool. I'm pretty sure Zoo York is a reg brand...not off-brand like mine...

I have been skaing for a year and still cant ollie. I can manaul, fronstide manual too. I cant drag my foot up for an ollie. I have some brand SPS from the skateshop its like a begginers brand I think.

I can skateboard. I'm not the best, but I've got some great friends who don't laugh too hard whne I nearly kill myself and then show me waht I did wrong. again. and again. and again.

I can ollie. thats my newest accomplishment. I can do a few other things, btu I don't feel like listing. the more interesting things i've done were teh more painful ones.

like the first time I dropped in. that was just funny. and my first time on a fun box. and my first attempt at a kickflip. the board hit the wall and I hit the floor. then there was the time I nearly got run over by a car. but I'll save that story for later.

I skate. Well I used to alot but now I just do it more to get around.

I have a neon green and black baker board, redz barrings, 53 wheels and thunder trucks.

I can ollie a tiny bit, Im working on it. And I can almost do a heal flip. I have done it before

I can do ramps and go over the fun box. So like do one ramp, go up and over another, and up another, turn and come back. I can also go up a roll in, pump and turn on ramps. I know its not that good but good compared to most girls at my school. I can also do 180 and almost a 360. And I can manual off a curb.

I ate it so hard trying to drop it. I mean seriously I ate it sooo bad. Havent tried since. =] I also tried to manual off a curb and ate it really bad too. but Now I can do that.

 

[WMX:V3]

Lot better than me...I can sorta manual...last time I tried the board went flying into a tree and I found myself on the ground. I can ollie but just about 2 feet. That ain't good. At all. 180's I'm working on. I don't have a ramp or anything so I have to(try)180 off an ollie or a curb or somethin' like that...doesn't work out to well usually.

i like to skateboard.
but i can't. i can't even get an ollie or anything basic & easy. i've skateboarded in flip flops, which is pretty stupid. i have trouble turning!

 

[BlueEyes9605]

I've tried to skateboard. Tried being the keyword there. I can pretty much only stand on it and push off and move. That's about it. But I'm gonna try to get better!

for all u beginner skaters out there..im pretty good..ollies are like breathing to me...kickflip..heelflips..tre flips..laser flips...im actually working on a bs smith grind...but a helpful hint...buy a blank deck and practice on like carpet in ur house...it gets the basics down of an ollie...thats how i learned to master a kickflip and heelflip...

its alotta fun when u get good...like the biggest thing ive done was ollie down from a rook like 15 feet..the first time i broke my ankle and my wrist..but when i got out of the casts i tried it again...lol..dont try it at home..and ive cracked about 20 boards...so dont be pissed if ur not getting it just yet..ive been skating for like 8 years..

ROCK ON!!
