    @Mizmazzle Sincerest apologies mate, I forgot to reply to your message! I did look into Never Summer boards, they look fantastic! But for me getting into skating and cruising again after many years they are simply too expensive for me. However muscle memory seems to kick in pretty fast and the first frontside 180 and pop shove it came back quickly with the dinghy :). Well, they don't look great yet but I'm happy. Maybe in the near future I might buy a Never summer or an old school Powell-Peralta.

        @RobeOfTheMagi rad man!! Listening to Tool is great for skating or taking a bike ride.

        Have a skate date with my nephew this week. Got him his first proper board for Christmas. He just turned 7. Fun to roll around with him. Pop some ollies and throw some power slides.

          Ohh nice topic!!! I also skated for a long time when I was a teenager, my boards were Cliché (an European brand) and off course Zero, I still have my last which got me to a big trauma and stopped my career 😅. Nofx, bad religion or Satanic Surfers in my ears, that's all I needed that time. 😍

            @RobeOfTheMagi I've seen so many Andy Anderson videos. I've always been super impressed with his skill but so much more with his pure love of skateboarding. I mean, he was having a blast doing a stall in a hole in the ground haha. But that vid you shared really show cased his persona so well. He's a really unique skater and one I grow to appreciate more all the time.

                @TENDREL Hell yea! I enjoyed this one.
                Crazy how loose dude skates his trucks!! Reminds me of my buddy back in the day. He used to cut his bushings in half so the hangers of his trucks just flopped around.

                    My oldest son has gotten into skating recently. Started with inline skating after watching the movie Brink, and has slowly started morphing into skateboarding. I found a neighbor locally who gave us a free deck and a free longboard. We got some free used spitfire wheels from our local skateshop and bought some independent trucks. He is loving it! I've been getting back into it with him and riding the longboard. I used to ride all the hills 20-25 years ago, so it's been fun feeling young again.

                      I love skating I did it from the late 70s until 2000's then got into longboarding lots of fun. My wife and I roller skate on quad skates does that count? LOL

                            @TENDREL I started on a banana board (we didn't call them Penny boards back then) and got my first big board after Back to the Future (A Variflex) and then my first pro deck was a Hosoi Hammerhead a few years after that...

                                  There is a great series on Thrasher called "This Old Ledge" where Feedback Ted explores the architectural and skating history of old spots. Great watch for both the old heads and youngins.

                                  Today's episode is on Wallenberg

                                    Been skating since I was 14, so almost 30 yrs. Used to manage an indoor skate park/shop back in Vermont and worked at a skate company when first moved to SF in 2008. Dont get out as much as I used to but still get down here and there. Live close to waller, and everything in SF is a skate spot. Haven’t skated that much since March of this year. Broke my arm, didn’t heal right/or at all. Got surgery end of July, and my Arm been so much better, post surgey. Could feel my bone move and hear it grind before surgery it sucked. Like 2 weeks after surgery, I was skating flat ground after work, trying take it easy. Ate shit and almost fucked up my 6 screws/arm all over again. Thankfully I was alright took slam on knee and elbow, but Was a wake up call. I was bombing into work, and that could’ve been way worse hit a rock, car etc. Since then just been walking in to work, so not tempted to skate. Till my arm is back to 💯. I’ll be back though, itching

                                      @TENDREL rad video, thanks for sharing. I remember the first time I saw Wallenberg. I had moved from the UK to SF for college and just happened to be staring out the bus window….i lost my mind and immediately got out. It was surreal to be a place that I had seen on videos/mags. Special place. I wonder if they’ll do a video on Hubba Hideout
