skateboards and dragsters


I'm starting to get back into skateboarding since my back hates the long surfing session so i was wondering if any of my vw family here like to bomb a hill or two. I don't ride a trick board just a long board that i can carve the bitumen up on. I grew up in the 80's & 90's when skating was mostly done by surfers when the surf was flat and we searched for hills to bomb early in the morning and storm water drains that we could ride like waves. We use to love drains that ran down a hill and spent hours sweeping them out digging out tuffs of grass just to shred them to bits. Unfortunatly i live in a pretty flat area, only have one slight incline at a new estate behind the fruit shops on Bribie rd so i'm using that to practice and get the feel again. Anyone know of anymore around north brissy area ?

So lets see your boards (i'll post a pic of mine soon) and also love the old dragster bikes as well.

Found a huffy bronx at the markets and have customised it a bit for the kids.

If only it was denim blue hey Matt B...

Ha remember as each bones brigade was released.......was so exciting to sit down to each new one. The dude with the giant tree house in one of them commited suicide years later and that was sad

Some good you-tube on the Christian Hosoi story around, his too easy rockstar rise to fame then drug fall......and how cool are the clips of Chris Mullen reinventing his "feestyle" to full steet, mad board contol!!!

Always loved the one of Gator calling his tricks before he did them on the 1/2 pipe from one of the vision vids (man he stuffed his life).........umm the Zboys of dogtown movie is sweet too if you've never seen it!

But check out anything from Pedros Barros in the bowls from recent times, just awsome!.....he's torn Manly's bowlarama apart the last few years now

Lost my gonads on a hill in Paddington Brisbane one night many moons ago, got half way down nice and low and started to get the speed wobbles and ended up using someones front garden as breaks! lucky i was under the influence :crazy: and didn't feel it too much. Owner was pretty cool as he use to live in Noosa and surfed and skated back in his day.

Yeah was talk on jjj with Doc Karl a while back on how the old teenage reckless abandonment had been scientifically researched and actually lasts till very late 20's or even mid 30's before the brain changes in that "give it a go and see what happens" mindset.... Hit me hardest with windsurfing over the last few years, big jumps just suddenly seemed somewhat unnessesary.... Sucks

Still sk8 as a mode of transport daily tho.... Try the park out everynow and then with the kids.

The boardwalk along the river in Nam would be good for a family sk8/bike ride when youre here...... Good 4 km to explore

Plenty of toys here if anyone feels the need over the weekend, mal, shorties, softlite, body boards.... A hobie 16 for matty :)

Yep took untill mid 30's for me.
Hit the water real hard from about 30 odd foot up kitesurfing and broke most of my ribs on the left side.
After that i gained fear! and now cant do half the tricks i used to do with out even thinking.

Must admit I don't skateboard but I do have a good mate who does..

His name is Danny and he holds the World record for the highest Olly

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKWoy0PaRZY 

Our eldest still skates and we have a few boards, a few signed by Danny, a very old Birdhouse deck that I bought in Belfast years ago, a few prettied up by Bristol graffiti artists and a couple of pinstriped old decks by a graffer from Boston who's Graf I collect.

Danny is also a good artist in his own right..top man. Got some shots somewhere of My lad and him on his personal ramps at the back of his shop in Bristol..
