Growing up skating mostly vert ramps I never really learned how to board slide on a half pipe. In fact, aside from a handful of small quarter pipes, I never even learned rock'n rolls. The image of Steve Steadham board sliding his way around that backyard pool in the first Bones Brigade video has been fixed in my mind for decades. Needless to say for some time now I've had it on the list of thing I had to learn. Let's just say, while it may not be a bowl, today's session felt pretty damn good!

Yeah Matt!
ReplyDeleteThat looked like 20'.
I'm waiting for the post about Dave's pool. (Good or bad)
Yeah, somewhere between 15-20'. When I started trying them I couldn't get the nerve up to just try them on the pitched rail so early on I new it was going to be all or nothing. Now I need to start trying them on a round wall!
ReplyDeleteI'll put something together for Dave's pool soon!
