New thrasher
On 5/11/2005 Tony wisneske wrote in from United States  (209.66.nnn.nnn)

I hate thrasher now. I read it just before my freestyle session and it ruined it. They say they want to support individual and original mindsets. They want to support all skating. Why would they make fun of something that helped them be where they are now? They see one person who still dresses like the 80's and assume that all freestylers still dress like that. They stereotype, they lie, and they, well, suck! I've lost all respect for thrasher.

Ben, I know Mike is sick I have skated with him at the Santa Barbara contest, I frestyle too, I was just pointing out how lame it is for that magazine to poke fun at freestyle, they've had many cover shots of freestyle in the past but I guess they feel the need to appear "core" by poking fun at something that is not the mainstream rail-stair-ledge thing.

Synopsis Video Premier
On 3/29/2005 Frank Lee wrote in from United States  (68.223.nnn.nnn)

All:

Daryl Grogan just called me, and he wanted to let everyone know that he will be appearing in a video called Synopsis.

The video premier will be held this evening at 8 PM in Long Beach, CA for those of you who live in the area, and can make it. The video will be shown outside on the corner of Long Beach Blvd. and Ocean Avenue (300 East Ocean Avenue).

I'll be sure to post more details about the video and the event once he sends me the flyer.

Thanks,

Frank Lee

Hi Ben,

congrats on the purchase of this special ltd edition YOYO deck from Witter.
Glad you like it; the other day I received my personal copies of the deck and haven't had the time to assemble it yet.
Yup, spread the word....and I hope that you got your autographed card as well with it.

Not sure where to put this post, but since I use to dig Freestyle I figured I'd let y'all in on this. I'm building a banjo and have done quite a bit of personalizing of it, most noteably to this forum a sk8 inlay I did of an old mid-80's pic of me. Check it out...


If you can't see the pics, you can find them on the second page of this album...

Hope you liked it.

new trick
On 2/20/2005 Will T wrote in from Canada  (64.228.nnn.nnn)

Got a new trick for you guys. Ride up on the sidewalk, and you flip the board so it lands with your two feet under the rail. Then flip it back over onto its wheels and jump on! I call it the "F-Stomp".

Rock On,
Will T
