haha Kryptonic wheels, now that it pretty old school! I've been skating for 13 years now, but it's always been street or park skating.

haha he has mastered the basic priciples of balance ect, but hasnt grasped how the board can have a mind of its own, lol

the scooter is just to introduce him to skate park politics/eticket, and to familiarise the enviroment, he is clearly the youngest kid there and has a basic technique, so a good foundation for earning his father millions in the future lol

go on my boy lol

Good sport, good tricks.

I never had a bottle to skateboard without worrying about breaking my head and butt, or at least one of them. One should know one's limits, which is a good thing.

Its quite entertaining to see skateboarding in action. Have you got any youtube with you doing tricks with your skateboard? Feel free to put it up.

My friend is making a video at the moment, it won't be done for a while because we need to get some more footage first. As soon as it's made I'll be sure to put it up on here

Nice pics! I'm a 'boarder myself, but the snow kind. I bought a skateboard to try and keep the balance one summer inbetween seasons. I near enough nearly snapped my back. I came to the conclusion that i'm too old if it didn't have bindings

Nice pics
Emotion black/reds, ACS 651 pro trucks and a fibreflex deck, that how i rolled - gave it up back in 1979. Progressed onto water skiing, wakedoarding, kneeboarding and windsurfing, the skateboarding help a lot with balance

Used to do a alot of skating back in the late 80's early 90's but much too old and knackered up now.

Recently treated myself to a few old school decks to use as some nostalgic wall art.

Still enjoy watching anything skate related.. Lords of Dogtown, both the movie and the documentary are awesome and Almost Round 3 is well worth checking out on youtube, Chris Haslam is scarily talented.
