        Oh nice! Such a great time being there. I graduated in 2014. Man, I had so much fun skating around the city then. A lot of good spots around, but the hills are my favorite thing ever.
        Way too scared to bomb em like I used to these days 😂

          Speaking of SF skating, and to keep this thread going. This is my roomie, best friend, much more than that brother I never had, David Abair last part! Friends since back in Vermont and major reason I moved out to SF 16yrs ago and def stayed was cuz of him our brother hood. He put out a lot of sick parts over the years but this last one extra special. Love and miss him everyday.

            @meatmarketdenim1 super sick skating man. I love those infamous SF bomber run outs after a gap trick or the like.

            Did something happen to your buddy Dave?

                    @meatmarketdenim1 Oh bro...such a sad story. Sorry to hear things turned out like they did. Sounds like he was a rad dude who was loved dearly.

                    I have a sadly, similar story myself. My buddy Ross. Since we were both 18, we skated together every single day. As we grew older, we continued to skate and go through our young party years. We were best friends for 15 years until we sort of grew apart. I pursued education and matured, he seemed stuck in his adolescence and rutted out.

                    The saddest part of the story, he always wanted to start his own skate company. He talked about it all the time in all our years skating together. He finally got his shit together and somehow got it off the ground. He moved to Vegas and made it happen! He started a company called Colonial and they were doing great!

                    One night coming home from a party he crashed his motorcycle and it all came to an end. I too have his boards as momentos and keep them on the wall.

                    Thanks for sharing your story man. And thanks for letting me share mine. Our brothers will live on forever this way!

                        Thought I'd best continue the convo here @goosehd, don't want to derail the WAYWT thread!

                        My board's the pintail (although the Arbor fish looks pretty similar in terms of dims and wheelbase):

                        Shaper_Lover_Complete_2021..jpg.webp

                        This one has a 17" wheelbase and a C7 truck. I bought their other Carver collab board for my kid (they were both on offer!) that has a shorter 15.5" wheelbase - it's still fun and very rideable, but it's amazing how much difference the longer base makes, much more flow and I can pump it more aggressively without getting squirrely. Absolutely love it, although toying with the idea of upgrading to bigger, harder 70mm wheels to hold a bit more speed on flats. Still only learning though, so more speed might not be the best idea at the moment!

                                  @Mizmazzle @RobeOfTheMagi @goosehd Ha ha, cheers 😂 I'm not going to pretend I'm any good at it, just trying to keep up with my nippers who are already ripping rings around me - loads of fun though!

                                    @SamD I’ve been skating with my nephew lately and it’s been a blast. Ripping off curbs, Chinese ollies/ nollies, power slides…old guy moves but so so much fun!

                                          @RobeOfTheMagi I used to mess about on skateboards as a kid, but mainly coming at it from years of surfing. Don't think my old knees could handle learning tricks, so it's all about cruising and carving whatever hills I can find (while living in the flattest city in the UK!)
