get one of these "kahuna big sticks" and snake everyone at the skatepark http://www.kahunacreations.com/bigstick
I thought the same at first....I'm 41 now.....am I too old for this? So my sister bought me a Kahuna Pohaku w/ Gullwing's for Christmas. F'n A!!! I use my Leki backpacking poles w/ rubber stoppers on the ends so I don't have to kick.....what a blast! Their spring loaded in the handles, gives it a little extra umph. I'll get a Big Stick eventually. My next deck will be from Dune Longboards. Check them out on YouTube. I think they're on Twitter too, but I'm too old for that crap!
I just read this thread and I was going to tell you that I reccommend the JBay from sector9...hahaha, you beat me to it. I really like it and it cruises real well...BTW, I'm 47 and using it to stay in shape and have fun...
offshore and ginsu, thank you for the info...mine aren't squeeking yet, so i guess I'm good for now. Appreciate your help.
I am in the market for a new cruiser I decided on this http://www.jokersskateshop.com/Z-Flex-Jay-Adams-Complete-Skateboard-Black-Red-7.5-x-29.75.html They had a Alva Complete but it was sold out
could also mention that original is based and run out of new jersey and the owners are both surfers. support your local even if they are growing co-owner scott in north jersey
I'm thinking of doing the mini-marathon for this event: http://www.adrenalinaskateboardmarathon.com/races/new-york-city/ Looks like fun
loaded boards from cali are sick. my buddy has a loaded deck w original trucks. an interesting ride for sure [video=youtube;JTzvd6VSYMU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTzvd6VSYMU[/video]

I just got a set of Bones Bombers 68mm 85a for my regulare skateboard for when I go to the local bowl in my town or FDR . I cant wait to sk8 this wheels
ive been lurking on www.pavedwave.com some killer info on setting up skateboards to feel like surfboards. Jay cagney - where in NJ is original based? I couldnt find it on their website, I want to go there and buy some gangster trucks. im in monmouth co, thanks
regarding the age issue. i skate with dudes well over 40. I'm inland here and we drive down and hit up baltimore and towson parking garages in the middle of the night. age aint no thing homez. won't give u as much stoke as surfing, but bombing a hill at 40 mph with some buds is close . just adrenaline produced.
Kooky you guys should hit up Landsdowne skatepark in Blatimore...2nd oldest park in the USA...all the old school dudes are up here with their old school decks.
