Longboarders!

**RudyTheRocka** · 08-10-10, 01:52 AM

I know we have to have at least a few skaters at TPG.

I just got a new longboard, a Bustin Complex 41" with Gullwing trucks, Bones RED bearings, and some OJ III Hot Juice wheels.

Throw up any pics or share some spots!

I would, but my Longboard is pretty beat up from use over the years. Need to change the bearings to bones reds and get some larger wheels. I'll post pics when I get the board updated =P Oh yeah it's a Sector 9 too...

I found this awhile back while looking for song kinda liked the music so I kept it pretty kool skating as well.

sector 9 frothy cosmic....shorter board (34", not too much more than a street board) I wanna say gullwing trucks, and sector 9 bearings and wheels.....it's a sweet lil board and flexy as hell :-P

used it in Corpus for riding to/from class on campus, here north of houston, there's really jack crap for longboarding >_<

I'll ride it across the apt complex to check the mail, or ride it instead of jogging.

oh, and the top deck has clear grip tape with the same image as the bottom underneath it :-p

If I find a pic I'll throw up my short board.

But I came up on a Rasta N8V board. Gullwing trucks, Bones Ceramic Super REDS bearings, and Sector 9 wheels. Last time I used it was.. A year and a half ago when I was sponsored. Now, I just take it to the bowls around here.

But for now, I'll stick with street skating. Next best thing to surfing, in my opinion.

It makes quite a difference in my opinion. Going down drops in sewers and some parks, I feel a faster and smoother ride. And on flat ground, I honestly feel like I'm just gliding across. But like I said, I haven't used it in a while.. So I can't really say too much about them..

I don't longboard, just skateboard. For half of my life, on and off of course. I live near boulder though and their are jillions of longboarders, its good for students who need to get to class without parking their car etc.

Im not down with just cruising , I like to trick it up.
