Not a skater... all through high school a lot of my close friends were skaters... me though, I can hang off a car on a board or I can just go on my own but not make any sharp turns, much less any tricks...lol  If I did have a board of my own it would definitely be a hookups board. I'm a hookups freeeeeak

I thought I'd share a pic.. I got Nick to take this pic of me pulling this off, sorry for the quaility - batteries are just about dead. This trick is either called a Brainfish, even though I did use the opposit hand or a brainfish fakie because the trick is set up (according to the pic) that I skated in the way I am facing on the pic. You jump up and do a 180' turn and land on the closest foot to the rail, while holding the other. My other arm is flairing but it looks good.. I think. I never was up to date on the whole lingo of the tricks, I just pulled them off to the best of my ability.. Also, the rail is low because I was just learning the move and getting boo boos isn't cool..

I skate, I'm at Londons SkatePark every day after school (around 2:45). I'm pretty good, but I have a broken, or badly sprain wrist right now, not that its stopping me. My setup= DNA MindProbe Deck, Tensor Lo's, Girl 54MM Wheels, Pig SpeedStar Bearing, Dooks Shockpads, Circa "Adrian Lopez" Shoes. the red ones. Some of the tricks I can do.. although not all... Flip Tricks : Kickflip, Heel Flip, Varials, Varial Heelflip, Big Sping, 180-360 pop shoveits (normal and fakie), Tri-Flips.. ugh.. basically every truck grind and basic grabs.. I got bored of naming tricks, so if you live in london area drop by the skatepark and I can show you haha

I'm washed up to but I've rode alot of different boards powell blanks, birdhouse, shorties, planet earth, toy machine and probably a bunch I forgot. For trucks I used whatever normally independent or grind kings. Skating is a lot of fun but is really expensive and really hard on the body the shins and hands/wrist in particular thats why I quit. I stick to hacky sac now.
