Old Guys Who Skate

So now that it’s been a couple of times riding the Flow Park section at Bonsor, I thought it was time to take smoe video.  So here’s one of me finally getting a good ride in! 

There’s something that’s super-cool about riding this park.  Now – of obvious note, I’m wearing more pads than RoboCop, and I’m only making heelside turns… but there’s more on the way.  The funny thing is, now that I’m kinda used to the heelside turns, the frontside turns are hard as hell… aint that always the way…

And since I’m in a video-tastic mood – here’s a similar clip of Ryan.  Only notice he’s starting to do some front-side turns as well.  Ryan’s been kickin ass at Bonsor.  I keep trying to go faster so I can keep the flow, but Ryan’s got the pump down – seems like he can go forever!  Check it:

And yeah – I know the vid’s are kinda amateur – I just haven’t had time to edit them and put music in the background.  I just wanted to load these bad boys up for today.

But the trouble with being an old guy who skates – is that I have to take care of this “work” stuff… and “work” is getting in the way of my posting, and of me skating… Just who came up with this “work” stuff anyway?!?  PFFFHTT

Anyway – Ryan and I have been kickin it at Bonsor Flow Park lately and we’re actually making progress… More on that later – why?  Because I got VIDEO of us, THAT’S why!  SO, in order to keep things on the up-and-up, I found this killer video of Rodney Mullin – what this guy can do on a skateboard is insane…  It’s like watching Hans “No WAY” Rey on his BMX (I’ll find a vid of him – I know its not skating, but OMG, he’s insane!), only Rodney’s on a skateboard doing things you will twist your head at…  Enjoy….
