I roller blade, just to clear up any confusion now about what type of skater. I skated for about 3 hours today, and finally started landing my front flips. Even managed to land a few misty flips as well. Go me!

I can drop in and jump off of hip height stuff , but rollerblading never took my fancy.

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!

I have a Trek bmx, but one day I got bored and went out and bought some skates. I gave up skateboarding, blading is easier.

hey, I skate too! (skateboard)

I really suck but I am practicing on Flat Land tricks.

Street skating is cool, Vert really suck, Flat LAnd is the coolest thing you can do when skating.

my best trick so far is>
'Pogo + wrap around x2 + truckstand + primo'
but it was ages ago... 1year.

Thief 3 : Deadly Shadows, The BEST game in the WORLD!
(and I cant buy it since I have a Geforce4MX 420 and NO MONEY!!!)

Yeah, I skate ( board ) when I get the chance... Used to blade too, but I out-grew them ( I was 5" something then, and I'm 6"3' now ! ).

I like to skate ramp, but a mix of ramp and street is always nice.

Around here ( NSW, Australia ) the government put in about 50 fairly large new skateparks all over the state about 2 years back, and ever since, skating around here has become alot more popular than BMXing or Blading.

Meh, enough about that.

The best trick I've done would have to be a Variable Kickflip
Or possibly droping in Switch to revert

Jess.

I can't really tell what the best thing I've done is, but I guess then best things would be fakie 3 flip, double kickflip, and ollie and kickflip off some high stuff . I'm crap at ramp.

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!
