Dammit, A/D Goodness beat me to it, cuz I scheduled these for tonight :) Anyways, the more the merrier. I’ve always loved skateboarding and snowboarding. Since I was like 15 or so, I started buying magazines like Thrasher, SLAP & TransWorldSkateboarding (Also TransWorldSnowboarding). I learned my moves from the sequel-photography that showed a trick in 15 to 20 frames within the same picture. Studying those moves, I’d try to imitate them, very often landing face down on the asphalt. Then I broke my arm and I kind of chickened out every time I’d have to pull something. The ‘No Fear’ factor made place for an ‘I hope I don’t break anything cuz I have to do this or that’ feeling and that kind of ruined the fun. I quit when I was 21 and I’ve always thought I’d go back to skateboarding ‘once’, but now I’m approaching my thirties so I think I’ll look like an overaged teen that couldn’t let go of his puberty. I think I’ll stick to snowboarding once a year. At least the powder breaks your fall. That said, here are some ads for Division East, the skate store in Montclair, NJ. I really like the way the pick on the sequel photograpy :) Quite humorous.
There’s a 4th one over at A/D Goodness
