DAE's Skate Thread
Hey guys. You won't know this, but i'm a Skateboarder. I'm on holiday and we've skated like crazy and taken some very cool photo's.
I was wondering if antone would be interested in seeing them. I know it's got NOTHING to do with computers, but neither do Chelsea OR Arsenal.
Should i post?

Okay, i'll be posting the pics one by one so that i can give a description. All photos are taken by Marc van Heerden UNLESS i state otherwise.
I recently learned Forontside Feeble grinds. Here's a pic of the second one i ever landed. It's at a skatepark in Plett called Messiah's Park.

Sorry i'm taking so long. I'm doing this on my PDA through GPRS, 115kbps. I've got quite a lot to post, so keep an eye on this thread.
The next 3 are some of my favourites. 2 days ago we were out searching for spots to skate and we found this gap, so i ollied it first:

About a week ago, we drove out to P.E. for the day, we went to a skatepark at Kings Beach. It's not such a nice park, but it's still worth skating.
They've got a HUGE bowl there. For those who don't know, in skating, a bowl is basically a swimming pool. But this "Pool" is made to be skated, so it's huge. All i had the guts to do was a backside 50-50.
What do you guys think? Of got some other really good photos, should i keep posting my pics?

Re: DAE's Skate Pic Thread (big pics)
If you look at the topics under Forums, you'll notice that there's quite a bit more to the site than computers.DAE_JA_VOO wrote:I know it's got NOTHING to do with computers, but neither do Chelsea OR Arsenal.
I'd think more along the lines of "The Locker Room".rabb1 wrote:shouldnt this be in the chill out section?

Here's another pic. It's not such a crazy one, but it's big.
If you look closely, you'll see a dark line across my landing. I kickflipped from the box on the right out to OVER that line. It was quite a big gap.
On friday i'll post more.

@ Rubberducky: Well i've been skating for over six years, so i'm used to falling. Not really scared of it anymore, because from falling alot, you learn how to fall without hurting yourself. Besides, breaking bones is over-rated (LOL) I've broken lots of stuff.
And yeah, about the graffitti: At skateparks graffitti is generally allowed. You might not see it, but there are bible verses and stuff graffitti on the bowl.
