I used to skate a lot, but haven't for some years now. I'm gonna start again with some friends this summer though ^^
Crooked deck
Venture trucks
Spitfire wheels
Quickies bearings
I'll get a new board this summer, preferably an Element deck with Grindking trucks. Other suggestions are welcome though, I'm more of a mini-ramp skater so keep that in mind. The Grindkings aren't so much of ramp trucks I guess, but I like them. -

actually, GK's are great for mini ramp because they have no kingpin nut to catch on the coping. -

i wish i was good because they just opened up a new skate shop by my house... i mean it would be cool if i was still into it, but i sucked so hard the most i got was ollie and pop shove it. Idk i had some major bad habits holding me back where id always turn my shoulders when i ollied and make a quarter of a turn, and it'd be hard for me to ollie while moving. probably wont take it up again but maybe i will, i still have my board.
its a zoo york with venture trucks ricta wheels and red bones bearings, i think lucky hardware, but i have one real hardware bolt because i lost one, works okay but gets loose after a while. My lucky black beauties are better but i never got around to cleaning them so they don't work as well. yeah thats all my experience really i think i did it for three years but wasnt practicing so frequently because it wasn't fun sucking so bad. -
Date: Thu, Jun 26 2008 22:02:39

nothing wrong with filming the 50-50's, i mean they were pretty long. But i really don't think you need a filmer because, well they aren't exactly good. (not saying i am, but i don't have a filmer) -

well, check out skateperception.com its basically a site for skateboard filmers, hopefully you could find some good info on their. But seriously you should start skating with them, its more fun than filming curb 50-50's and stationary hardflips(who the hell does tricks stationary anyways?). -

The ramped slo mo was only a test. Also, I'm sorry my friends aren't as good as you, your holyness. Would you like to grace them with your presence? I'm not even the person skating. Why are you commenting on them and not my filming?
