Gone Skateboarding?

3 hours this afternoon. Got annoyed (scooter kids buzzing about) so took a break, set the Cafe deck up and felt a bit better. Broken in new shoes and a new deck is nice.

Did a couple of ollies to fakie on the 4ft quarter which I’ve not done for a long time and my daughter dropped in on the 4ft on her rollerskates. She is now in the realm of ‘scaring the shit out of her dad’ when flying about on them.

Out for an hour and a half tonight. Good fun and didn’t bang or knock any body parts which is great. I’m forbidden 14ing this deck until I get more consistent front tail slides and start trying back tail slides.

Loving Mike skating more than the rest of the forum put together since going sober, so rad to read :+1:

Very kind of you @ParmoViolets.

I’d much rather be out skating with the younger generations than sat in the kitchen at home drinking watching ‘stuff’ on TV or YT. Just glad I still can.

My step son has been polarising all day. Was nice to encourage him.

Steezin’ :sunglasses:

I went to Stoke Plaza with the kids for an hour and a half. It really needs a refresh, but that won’t happen anytime soon.

I had to keep rewatching his second trick - confusingly good.

Which one? Haha

I’m so proud of Jase, 6 months T-Total and just a fucking pleasure to hang out with

This is the way. Good taste in shoes too.

Feedback for Baines - I love 508s, such a good shoe to skate in. 600 great to skate too but only lasted 7 weeks.

I didn’t realise how many people in Oxford skate New Balance, it’s a lot. Way more than Nike and Adidas. 2 to 1 easy at the park yesterday maybe even 3
