RE: From Sepultura to Ed Sheeran - A Musical journey through my early teens and twenties (Part 1)
Sick music selections , but what really cuaght my eye was "I remember getting amped to this and busting massive indy airs over the fun box " . Over the past few weeks myself and a few other skater have begun to populate the once dire tag of Skateboarding and skate with quality posts. There is also a contest tag under steemskate if you got time check it out . Otherwise rad article and I hope you can still bust indys.
Hahaha sadly I can't, that skatepark was sold when I was about 15 and turned into a theatre. It was a great park, all the ramps were wooden ones that we could drag around as we pleased and the curved kickers were just perfect - little pump and half an olly and you'd soar. The last time I indied out of anything was a concrete quarter about 12 years ago, ended up snapping my wrist at the same park a week later and it also snapped my confidence - have been a pussy on a board ever since!
I bought a deck last year for the first time in ages, took it to the local park literally twice, tried to slide this little down rail endlessly and bloody snapped it - too damn fat now!
Ah man that sux good thing you tried , im sure you got a little something left in the tank . If not you can live viceriously through the posts , in one of my recent posts it shows us group of old dudes skating . One of the dudes is in his late 40's just got back into skating and is now getting everything back. I think its always best when getting back into to it to just chill and enjoy riding , if you try something to gnarly your confidence is not there and you bail and slam hard. Regardless keep up the rad crypto posts I always enjoy reading them .
Thanks dude much appreciated. Yeah I should buy another deck - it just pissed me off hahaha I remember they used to last me like at least 6 months unless I was really unlucky. I used to skate 775s and tried that again, might need something wider cos I'm like 85KG now vs 60 back then.
Re: Old dudes skating - there used to be a couple old surfy blokes at our park who were total rippers. We had this ramp that morphed straight into the wall and matey used to roar like ten metres up the wall and drop back into it, sooooo gnarly.
I have been calling dudes out on the skateboarding and steemskate hastag in terms of tricks but as of now I am calling you out on getting a board. Getting a board and getting back into it is so much fun just dont try ride like your 18 and stoned again hahaha.I ride a 8.25 at the moment and it is awesome definatley better going wider those days of the 90's small boards big pants and lightening metabolism are over.
Awwwww shiiiiiit ... I'm a sucker for a challenge. Guess I have to. Last time someone called me out I ended up picking up the mic again for first time in years
