I would kick flip over tons of stuff, 360 flip 50-50 grinds, nollie 1 foot K-grinds, and my favorite was kick flip indy grab. When I really got into music and PC gaming I quit....I completely such at skating now. I can still kick flip and ollie and do semi tech tricks like nose manual shove it out...but thats about it...fun times though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JtowninAtown Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 A lot of people skateboard here in asheville. I prefer to wakeboard though, as it doesn't hurt so much when you fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grippy and smooth, so are their boards.I'm really considering buying a set. I typically stick with Lush, Kyptonics, and Gravity.
