Darth Groovy Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 I used to skate. I still got my Zorlac with the pusshead drawing on the bottom covered up with NIN and Ministry stickers. Some of the wounds I have still have not healed. I was never very good. I keep the board in the trunk of my car as an emergency escape vehicle.

Cognito Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 Im 27 been skatin on and off since i was 12. Ridin a blind now with indies, reds, and spitfires. I set up a hawk III with risers, thunders, reds and the biggest longboard wheels i could find. That thing kicks ass, but to ollie up a curb is quite the challenge.

Reb Starblazer Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 I used to skateboard, but I eventually got tired of it and gave it up. Not to mention I really can't find the time for it anymore, what with work, school, Jedi Outcast, these forums... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Slayne Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Never could stay on the damnable things. I was more into BMX stunts and races. In the end I gave up and stuck with guitar. No accidents there! Well, except the time one of my strings broke while jamming. I threw the thing to the floor in disgust and one end of it landed in the power extension board. Wow! I never knew that nickle plating could go off in such a show of sparks! Needless to say, the band was without power, and that meant that they were unable to hear us FIVE blocks away...

Cognito Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 When I was 13 I was ridin some rails and landed wrong. Broke both bones in my left arm, had to have metal plates in my arm for a year and a half, had no gym through Jr. High and I still have two nasty scars 14 years later. Ah, its a way of life.

C'jais Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 I feel sorry for ya cognito, I once broke both my arms, at the same place even, at the same time.... Anyway, have any of you seen the new flick "Dogtown and Z-boys"? I highly recommend it to skater enthusiasts, since it's about the original skaters, with some pretty neat photage.

Dissectional Posted August 7, 2002 Author Share Posted August 7, 2002 Yeah dogtown is a kick ass movie. My worst skating injury was trying to BS smith a flatbar, when my trucks locked up. i flew forward, landing on my nuts, and then slamming on my ribs, cracking two of them. A close second is the time when i dislocated my elbow, and had to pop it back in. That was a bitch, and i had to wrap it in ace bandage for two weeks to keep it from popping out of socket again. Needless to say, it hurt. Bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBell Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 wow, i feel sorry for u guys. My worst injust was when i did a 360 flip and landed on the nose balls first It hurts just thinkin bout it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebelwerfer_ Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 i used to skate when it was a counter culture thing, but now it's a mainstream fad and I grew out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomHelix Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 i havent really skated much. im 14 and i have been thinkin about boardin but the last board i had was when i really sucked and i could only ollie then. im gonna get a brand-spankin new board in a few days or so, and then skateboardin shoes and a proper helmet (im gonna need the protection. im def gonna be a danger to myself and others. haha) and stuff. my worst bail (yes, even when you cant do any trix you still bust yourself) was when i tried to do a kickflip in my friends driveway and i hit the side and hit my head on the stone wall and i kinda just lay on the ground wonderin where i was. i turned out fine (well, i think i did) but it hurt like heck.

PODguy87 Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 i skate, but i bailed sick, so im giving it a break for the time being, i almost tore my sack, and thats just not worth it...... yeah and i have a kickass HOT PINK NASH board, that i dont really skate with, but its good for some laughs...its older than me, and I have to spray silicon spray on the bearings and stuff, to at least have it ride smooth... p.s. ROLLERBLADERS SUCK, they took the name "skaters" from us skateboarders.......... Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
