WORDS TO LIVE BY.

Steve, always keeping it genuine.

[skatewad]

dude who ollied the handicap rail llooks like chris bernsten

[edotsuki333]

i have never bean to the broklen banks or newyork, but it is sad to me how the skaters turned the banks into a skatepark, especially eastcosters, like zooyork is now all about extreme sports, i have bean watching the banks on skate videos for 17 years now, i like my sreet skating to be all natural.

[torrent820]

they didn't turn it into a skatepark, man. would you rather the city have destroyed that spot and turned it into a grass park. you've never even been to the banks, so you would have no idea what its like. it still feels real natural, they just added some ledges and rails. it's not like a plastic crappy park or anything like that. it's the shit and you should go there

[edotsuki333]

but you see skaters added ledges and rails like something lame that we would do in california, thats not gutter skating our street skating its a skate park with bricks, they turned a street spot into a skatepark and skateparks suck ass.

[torrent820]

it's not a skatepark, dude.

[edotsuki333]

then why do i see skater made rails stuck in the ground? just because you like to play your tonyhawk all day that does not mean that the real world has to look like that, its taking the joy out of streetskating, and street skating is the real joy of skateboarders, but if you like to get off on skaterails then i guess thats your thing, you can have your skater made stuff and i will keep my streets and i am from orangecounty california, you guys in eastcost sould be schooling me about the streets?

[torrent820]

it's a street spot that skaters added some stuff to, like rails, ledges, and quarter pipes. other than that, the rest of the spot is an actual skate spot, built by non-skaters. it's funny that you've never even rode your board at the banks, but yet you seem so sure of yourself. NYC is always where the real streets will be, def not in orange county.

[Slowchemical622]

Word i skate the banks everyday i go to school across the street just cause theres rails an ledges doesn't make it any easier to skate. And lastly the peices change every 10 months id say so even then it'snot really that legit. Think of it as puttin a wooden box on your driveway just cause its there today whos to say sanitation wont junk it tomorrow. Please visit it before speaking edotsuki333.

[chipleader14]

you really think after skating somewhere since the origins of skateboarding, that no one would decide to build a ramp?

[chipleader14]

what? the biggest attraction there is the banks and the walls that come off of them. over time, skaters built ramps, which happens everywhere, and a flat bar was added. the ramps arent great. their falling apart. but we skate them

[CritchleyMovies]

yeah so true, they didnt make it a skatepark they improved it. the flat bars look natural and tht, and its not exactly got some metal qp's

[zenmunk22]

Steve Rod! Great stuff Dude! To quote an old friend.. You Rip!

[jasonricci]

I went to pier 7 in SF even though I knew it had stoppers.

[jentachi158]

i crashed into him in the les i was like o shyt bad but it was fun

[yoyo6450]

You only wana cruise thru traffic like him if you know what youre doing coz you can easly get your self killed.

[jdavis180]

yeah bro, I've lived in new york city my whole life, and these streets are seriously no joke. but it's like he said, that's half the fun. it's not even really about spots here as much. the whole city is one big spot.

[prosk8er10112]

i met him in ny for go skateday

[duderoman050]

[24Tyson]

Yeah Sure You Do Kido...

[moshwitme45]

i just met him today. i did a bs big spin and he bugged out. it was sick

[Dedalus0]

I wish there were more folks like this guy. Not just in skateboarding, but in the world at large. Just being down for NYC, being grass roots, and trying to maintain some regional pride...it should serve as a model for all people who are going to start a company. So cool, especially when skateboarding is bigger than ever and its ever so tempting to cash in on it.

[vikernesburzum]
