Hey fellow GTP skaters,
I've recently gotten back into skateboarding after like a 2 year break or something like that. It's definately refreshed my love for the sport and I am currently trying to get all my tricks back. I dont really have any pics at the moment but im going pool skating later so ill try and get some pics then. so for now I'll just post a pic of my setup and a 2-3 year old pic of my highest ollie ever caught on camera (appauling quality). If you have any pics of yourself skating then feel free to post em in here too. I just checked out Delphic Reason's photo thread and it inspired me to make one too. Good job Delph!

Sorry for the huge pics, but some came out pretty nice wiht the sunset, let me know what ya think...
 
When I was skating a couple of years ago it took me like 18 months until I finally just buckled down and learnt kickflips, until then I was just learning rail tricks and doing hundreds of ollie variations, thats why its so high. Once I properly start getting a feel for my board and start getting my ollie back ill get some new pictures of it. Ollieing was the hting I was best at.
 
Got some new pics at last, R34JSE kindly took them for me, we might be going again tomorrow so ill see if we can get some of hi mon his nice bike too. These new pics are pretty good but its not too bad wiht the imageshack "shrink to fit" thing. Let me know what ya think peeps.

Oh, and I now have some new 55mm Ricta Air Cores which you can kinda see in the pics. I might try and get a pic or two of them when I get the time. I bought them with some of my first week's wages at the garage:D.

Like I said, let me know what you think, thats why I post em up here. I got some pretty cool vids from today too, ill try and get them up soon.
 
Nice pics, the first batch in particular look really cool 👍

I'm not much of a fan of skateboarding, but a friend sent me this video a while ago and I was very impressed. You'll probably have seen it before, but if not, here you go.
 
thanks dude. I havent been able to skate for a while ecause of the typical british weather and the fact that im working at the garage most of the day. But ill try and get some pics and vids up soon.
 
Which one is the PR ollie?

....and, for the love of God, wash your hands, please.
 
:drool: awsome ollie. I used to could ollie pretty good, not high, but far. Then I hurt myself. and couldn't any more, i didn't even hurt my self badly . looks like you have some good spots over there, WHY DOES STOCKTON SUCK SO BAD FOR SKATING!?!?!?!? (I'll hunt down a pic of our "skatepark" sometime). I've also got to learn to keep the board under my feet for some of my more difficult tricks
btw what was your best trick before you quit? and how about that no skateboarding sign, even though it just happened to be in the pic, it was a nice touch
