What Skateboard did you ride??

[steelcouch]

Yup still do. I havent tried a pool in about six months. Sprayned my ankle showing off to my kids in a skatepark pool and lets just say the pool won. Giving it another try during the summer after my house is done remodeling. Then I can afford a little pain. Have a reissue rob robskopp and a double tailed newer style board. Like the reissue the best.

Does anyone still skate? I do, but I broke my arm super bad a few years ago so I'm a lot more timid when it comes to skating these days. I have a Gravity street deck and a Sector 9 long board. Usually I'll just get on my longboard and cruise around. No tricks or anything, just good 'ol sidewalk surfing.

Hey I finally found a pic of the board I used to have. If anyone knows where I can get one like it I would really appreciate it. Heres the pic. Its a Per Welinder freestyle board.

Used to make my own boards with either red or green kryps and california trucks back in the days of Lief Garret..lol..even made a 6 foot "speed board" to zoom down the giddy hieghts of greenwich park hill (london), knocking pensioners and courting couples into the air....

About 1976 I had a pretty cheap yellow plastic "bannana board". I always wanted one of the aluminum Banzai boards but never got one.

I just had crappy ones. Now I have a Jason Ellis Powell one and another with Indy trucks and Red Dragon bearings. I live just up the road from Tony Hawk's favourite Aussie skate ramp...but you won't find me on it these days.

Had a pink freestyle board with a bones guy wearing a helmet ( dont know the name of it but would really like to know as I want to try and get one but dont remember the name of it if it rings a bell)
A dogtown webbed edge board and a markovica board.

Hey steel, do you remember the make? or the year? could have been a Rodney Mullen "Mutt" board ..Yeah , a year would help!!

I had that blue nash GT board in 1979..one day the bearings exploded out of the front right wheel....serious road rash

[Beatnik]

Still got these two hanging around, blue one cost me over 40 bucks in the seventies. GX Caliber with California Smokers I think? The Nash was a Target special.

[Bionic Joe]

I never had one because of the idiot next door had one and busted his head open trying to do stunts and hense i wasn't allowed to have one

I started out with this narrow blue junker with thiun roller skate wheels then I had the white veriflex amd finally spent what seemed a king's ransom at 12 (90 bucks in 1984) for an AGENT ORANGE about 6 months later fell and broke my arm in and hand , Mom took the board

[HardyGirl]

Hmmm...I think it was a custom Super Surfer Endless Summer board. It had Pro-class trucks and Big Mac wheels. I still have it, taken apart. Parts of the trucks are missing and some of the ball bearings have come out of the wheels.

I only had a few boards: 1st one was Roller Derby steel skate cut in half and attached to a board. Mom said I couldn't have one so I made it. The mid west circa 1977 was not skatebaord country yet.

I had 2 K-mart cheapee boards a Blue one that shattered and a deluxe Red one. That was later replaced by a Makaha(sp?) It had sealled bearings and soft wheels, and great trucks. Very cool back in the day! I went in to get a drink of water on a hot summer day came back out 30 seconds later and it was gone!!! No one was no one insight anywhere outside or down the street.

I had few others but I was older and there was less time.(girls)
