Who here skates (skateboards)?

And if you do, what tricks can you do?

I can do a high ollie and a kickflip.

And do you reckon I should get this new board:

Yeah! I love skating. That board looks really rough as well (that is a good thing.) I can do a 360 flip and my most recent achivement was kickfliping a 7 step!

That looks like a really nice board but I am going to buy a mongoose board which costs only £15.00! It has ABEX 12's and really good wheels. If anyone is going to buy a board I recommend this one. Very Happy

I saw that board. It is quite good, but a bit fat. I mean, it would be very good for kick flips and stuff.

And, you can't really recommend a board like that, becasue it depends on your skill level.

That would be a good board for people learning high moving ollies and stuff, but not really for big tricks.

He told me he was thinking of getting it from a shop called "Derek's Garage" (I think). But they weren't in stock, so he doesn't have it yet.

I am buying new bearing for my board though, becuase they are ABEC1!!. I ordered ABEC 5
