Skateboarding

[webcorps]

I miss the old school boards by hosoi, powell, vision and alva...Its not that i dislike the down and dirty street skating of today, hell im guilty of it at least once a week(im getting old and hurt more than i should). But what I wouldnt give to go back in time to 86-87, that summer me and my buddies were watching the latest powell peralta flick like the search for animal chin or future primitive or something...and we decided to build a half pipe in our buddies back yard. We finished it in 2 weeks and we had the summer of a lifetime learning a bunch of rad tricks and breaking a bone or two thanks to the damn cheap cv pipe we used as coping. I can still hear the metallica (sanitarium) and the agent orange in the background and.....ok im getting misty, thats enough for now..I even lost my virginity on a Mcgill that summer...special, folks, very special...
