Hey growery, I was just wondering if there any any skaters in here? When did you start and do you still skate to this day?
I started around 12 or 13 and have been off and on a board ever since. Never was good a tricks but I love the feeling of the board and wheels tuned to the concrete.
Now a days I just cruise around the city, looking for some nice hills.
What about you guys?

Yeah I skate on the weekends for a few hours on average. I used to be way into it though, back in middle school.
Some of my achievements that I remember are: Ollieing an 8 set, 360 flipping this 4 set about nine times in a 30 minute period
now i usually just do flatground shit, been messing around with variations of a no-comply impossible

nice man. My biggest set of stairs was a 4 step stoop. I was a complete pussy with stairs.
Some flatground stuff like Rodney Mullen? That guy is awesome.

I used to skate every single day for like 6 hours. I was only ever any good if I was drunk, it loosened me up enough to be good. There was one trick I could do every time, I heard people call it a lot of names but it was the only one I mastered.
It was a kickflip where the board also flips like an impossible. It was easy to do, you just had to stomp hard on the tail at an angle and jump high enough.

Why should that mean it isn't real?

If you ever find two rails that go 90 degrees to each other that are about as high as your chest you and stand in front of them and do crazy tricks while pulling yourself up for support and guarantee that you won't get hit in the nuts or anything

I didn't know fat people could board
