Back in the day when I was younger, much thinner/more in shape, and had the time.

I still dress like a (fat) skater.....lulz.

Boards I had: Birdhouse Falcon 3 (timeless classic), a CCS blank and a Birdhouse Team Death Seal.

Between all my setups, I transfered China Bones bearings, Pig Pile risers and Shorty's silverados hardware.......all had Black Magic grip tape, and for a while I was rocking some silver Fury's, and my last setup I had solid black Fury's. I still have my last setup in my closet, though I don't see it coming out any time soon, as I quit skating years ago.

The spots I used to hit on a regular basis were Curtis Park skatepark and Vans (indoor) in Potomac Mills Mall, which was closed down a few years ago. But I was never a big park skater, as I did mostly flat land and oldschool bs. I just hit the parks with friends who were big ramp/rail skaters. I mean I could do the basics on ramps/rails, and could skate a vert pretty decently too, but meh....was just never for me.

Oh how I miss the olden days of cruising in my pristine '88 RX-7 convertible w/ the board in the trunk, en route to the local skatepark (Curtis Park) blasting Cake and S.T.U.N. Ah....the memories.

*Oh, and whats wrong with baggy clothes? I used to wear nothing but girl's clothes.........when I was 150lbs. But now that i'm about 195lbs (or more), i'm sure it would be very pleasant to see me in non-baggy clothes.

[Dubmd]

damn dude! old school setup right there.
i remember those fury trucks lol
you should definitly go grab your board and skate again.
its so much fun.
but i gotta admit. i dont jump down crazy shit like i used too. my legs and heels are already beaten up.

I skated from like age 12 until age 19. I got on a board for the first time the other day and SUCKED. I could still do some small stuff, though.

Here's a pic of me from 2-3 years ago...

[SeanDub]

Nope

[schroedin]

Naw

[BADwayz]

Not for 20 years now, but I do still own a Powell Peralta t-shirt and hang out with a few skaters.

[JSanders]

I stopped skating about 3 years ago. I found my deck when I was moving and brought it with me for the heck of it. Who knows maybe I'll start messing around with it again but I'm more into bike now.

[lespaulman16]

nope, too busy with autocross when i was in high school

Dude, there was some crazy technical shit in those vids. Nice work. I used to skate, but not avidly. I got on my skateboard the other day (Think 2000) for shits and giggles and landed my first kickflip ever....haha! It was sick.

[Digitalwave]

I've been skating on and off for probably 15 years. I haven't picked up my board in over a year since my friends who I used to skate with moved away after college.

[Hinman]

[SWINFORD]
