Colerain Bowl

Surfing around on youtube this morning, i decided to look up colerain. Colerain,Ohio isn't to far at all and i miss the place. Havn't been there in a year. Since were getting visits from a lot of people outside the area i thought i would show a couple of parks around incase they visit. Below is Kris skating the colerain bowl.



I can not wait to hit this monster up again.

Oh that's a nice deck you got there

Oh that's a nice deck you got there. It's a Tech Deck. So i constantly surf Amazon.com
since i work there and all, but also cause i run across some cool stuff. Recently while looking at old reissue decks i ran across a collector series Tech Deck has been doing. I plan on getting more, but to start with i got a Christian Hosoi handboard. The original Hosoi deck was put out in 1985 (wow i was 10 years old.) The hammerhead shape was one of a kind and blew all our minds.


The second Tech Deck i chose to start my collection with was the 1989 Rob Roskopp. The Eyeball. I've always been a fan of Santa Cruz skateboards. I own a Santa Cruz Longboard and Skate a Santa Cruz Tom Knox currently. Jim Phillips art work has attracted me from the get go. His art work has influenced skate art around the world. Rob Roskopp graphics started out with the arm busting out the target then progressed to a full pledged monster.

Bunk Knee and Lil Wayne

No bunk knee isn't a rapper. I've got a bad knee. Ended up at the emergency room yesterday and was diagnosed arthritis and pulled muscle. No skateboarding for a week or two. Nothing major, but still a scare for me. Last thing i wanna hear is i can't skate no more.
 While i was layed up on the couch, leg elevated, and ice around my knee. Lil Wayne decided to hit up at our local indoor skatepark Ollie's. Apparently Lil Wayne has been hitting up skateparks while on tour.

I wouldn't be the person running out to get a ticket to the show, but not gonna lie and say it wouldn't be kinda cool to see him stop by the park.

The video below is Lil Wayne at Boardroom Skatepark giving a shout out.
