As a kid I never actually owned a skateboad but I used to borrow my neighbors and follow him and the boys around the neigbourhood. Must to angst of my parents I even dipped a toe into the Prahran bowl a couple of times. I was never much chop with the board but I do remember that feeling of nailing my first ollie and rail slid. Now that I’m a bit older, with more fear of broken bones, I have found the perfect skating situation: Long bording. It looks so smooth and free flowing, just the pace I am after.
