RE: True Skate Stories - Frontside Chin Slide Body Slam
As for skateboarding.. I did some when younger and took loads of risks, going down hills at 30mph with blind bends etc
Ha ha, you're right about being fearless when young. Me and a friend used to do the craziness called skitching. That's basically when you get a tow by holding onto the wheel arch of a car... or we used to do it with buses. That was probably one of the maddest things when I look back on it cause we were often in traffic. This video shows what skitching is:
I used to love bombing down hills as well.
P.s. the yellow custom wheels sound awesome! 🙂
Cool video, but what do you do if the irate driver brakes hard?
What kind of response did you get from the drivers considering your in full view in their side mirror?
You don't get a good response in Liverpool from the drivers if they noticed you lol
The buses were easier because they couldn't see you because the mirrors were higher. I must admit I had some sketchy moments in Liverpool city centre skitching cars.
My mate Ben who was a much better skater than me used to do it more often... But If I was out on a skate session with people better than me, I just had to follow the crowd.
Twas fun... and scary 😆
P.s if the car broke heavily, you have to push off from the wheel arch, to negate the momentum, and head for the kerb.
