SKATE -or- DIE

they're not your average kickflips... they've got some height and that's how i've always done them :)

i often thought about if i would've continued to skate. ****, i'd be doing videos or be competing at the x-games by now :(

i was 13 when i started skating... i was landing consistant nollie kickflips within a year at that time. having unsupportive parents is the reason why i couldn't skate anymore. they only ever bought me ONE deck! yes, ONE deck! with my saved money i bought some used trucks and wheels. i had to use generic nuts and bolts for hardware. I was blessed to have had some great skate buddies. they were the ones that gave me their hand-me-downs because they never liked seeing me not skate due to breaking my board. also at the age of 13-14, i didn't have money to buy decks or whatever. that is the reason why i gave it up. it still makes me sad to think about it. this is something i'll always hold against my parents...

i started breakdancing after... how f'ing lame!

dude you sound like my friend his parents only bought him one deck and everytime I get new skate gear I give him my old **** because I cant stand not having anyone else to skate with.

breakdancing, keeps you in shape and loose... i have friends that did both...

my friend tim skated, school, martial arts (3rd degree black belt), breakdance and play music...

that fool was/is talented and did everything will skill and ease it was sickening.

we lost contact after i moved

cool dude, its nice to see that a skater has never lost his tricks even after 10 years

i envy your skill, if i go almost a week without skating i lose like everything

Pretty cool you got all that back already. But you did all this in one day after not skating for 10 years? or after some time?
I was skating under a train station a few weeks ago and some dudes came off the train who said they both skated in that same exact spot 10 years ago. it was pretty cool. they had flip flops on but they asked us is they could use our boards anyway. pretty cool knowing that we're sort of like the next generation of those guys and who they used to skate with there.

awesome man congrats try to get a vid up id love to see some of ur stuff.
