When I was a kid and into skating hardcore I always wanted a halfpipe. Then we went to my aunts house where my older cousin had a full size halfpipe and it was like looking at grand canyon. I was like this ...then like this to ride it . lol. Damn that was a lonnnnnnnggggg time ago. I remember my fourth grade school pictures I was in a Bones Brigade t-shirt. Full size decks FTW!!

i built a little quarterpipe, its just taking measurements. personally its not my style of skating. i like technical street tricks and grinds/slides. manuals are tons of fun aswell. to get good you have to skate everyday which is what i have been doin for the past 2-3 months since ive picked it up again. and now im almost as good as where i left off.

rollerbladeing is for gays in the early 90's.
i havn't skated regularly for a while now. we just finally got a skatepark though, i thought it sucked, so i never went. i just found out though it has a cement multi-bowl.
so i think i'll have to check that out when it warms up. i hope i can still drop in.
i think they make you wear a helmet though too, ---- that ----.

for roller blading you def dont want a full size pipe you want like 4 foot mini ram thats like 12+ feet wide then one the deck of the mini ramp have like a 1 or 2 foot high rail that goes across the back so you can jump oup on it and do sweet ---- like that , and if its mini ramp make sure there is no vert on it cause its homo you just want angled , no straight up and down on a mini ramp, something like this but twice as wide http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...&ct=image&cd=3
me and my buddys used to live in a housing dev. and we use to jack all the housing ---- at night to build are own ramps, they never cared or caught on, we had a 12 foot half pipe
a 5 foot half pipe a 1.4 pipe in the front drive way, and a few box's with rails on them and some with angle iron on them, well have fun
