Default My rides (updated)

Here are my 2 main rides to school. (sorry bout the focus my roomate cant work a camera with more then one button)



This is what a normal skateboard looks like with my others.



Ok i thought id update this since there has been some changes. So the one middlesized board was damaged in the accident that totaled my car. so that went to the ins. company and was replaced by this board which was beautiful and mahogany.



Unfortunately it was hit by a bus




so it was replaced by this board its fiberglass and it is just great.

And recently i went insane and bought the board pictured with my collection here. Note the size of my smallest which is a "normal" skateboard.







In case u were wondering the largest one is 6'8" (thats 203.2cm)
And its wheels are 97mm in diameter which is about 3.7 inches.

i think you mean does it not matter which is nose and which is tail. That generally isnt true for longboards including mine.

I'm sure you have a lot of fun riding it. It looks a lot more stable than the "normal" skateboard. But the bad side is that you can't do trics.

i always rode elements, birdhouse, zero etc....i always found world industries to be too narrow of a deck(under 7.88" in most cases) but nice little collection for sure, i hope u take the long board on some nice hills, because i am sure it would be a blast. ive never tried one, but id like to one day!
