Meh, big wheels, long boards and wide trucks.

Nuts is what Jaws Homoki does, the Lyon 23 attempts start at 5.23.

I love those downhill long-board videos. Craziest shit.

The voice of the surf heard now and then was a positive pleasure, like the speech of a brother. It was something natural, that had its reason, that had a meaning.

Saw one on Facebook of a girl doing stunts like skating on one leg with the other over her head and hanging onto a car going downhill fast. Pretty fcuking crazy stuff.

first roll tonight at the sydney park skatebowl. that whole set-up is so spread out that it feels like a football field. can imagine it'd be sick for MTB and BMX also. stark contrast to the whippy little clover-bowl set-up i've been getting into. dropped the 2nd highest end, around 7-8ft with a foot of vert on it which then slingshots you into a waterfall roll-in to the deepest bowl section, which is probably around 12ft. didn't get near the tiles nor try to yet, kept just shy of the vert and concentrated on covering ground, staying super-light on my feet enjoying the weightless, sling-shotting section to section.
heaps of funz.

Anyone know of that infamous set of 25 stairs called The Lion?

Here is a complication of some brave attempts from skate and BMX etc

Watch the Jaws Homok vid about it

Destroys his knee in the attempt and then comes back for another crack a couple of years later.

This blows my mind. Steve cabellero late 50s upside down and Tony Alva late 60s (surfs good too)

In my social media I somehow used to get feeds from a girl called surfsterre. After a long hiatus they are back in my feeds. If that's what skating is like, sign me up.
