[snorkeldeep]

just got a sweet 46" sector9 supercruiser for setting rails on the concrete surf here in manhattan.. ;) im going to try and start surfing rockaway as well in the next few weeks w/ some friends. ill put some pics up when i get the time.. moving on monday. its so fast and so smooth!

Is that the long flat one? I have an old one with a Cadillac on the bottom. It has camber on the top and it spreads the wheels more evenly when you ride it. Freakin smooth, and at speed it does not chatter. I have had it over 30 mph with no wiggles. Enjoy!!!

its slightly concave. . definitely long. though my next will be the 57" ed economy gravity bank board.. sweeeeeet :) i need to dig up my pads, im dying to take the 46 in a pool.. its been a while though. its so smooth at speed - really impressive. fantastic surfy feel to it as well. I was doing cutbacks on the park barefoot on it yesterday, it was phenomenal!

snorkel, you ride over at prospect park in brooklyn yet? they've got a monster hill that's closed to traffic on the weekends. nice and long.

i took my longboard down to the park in bay ridge a few times. so much fun. watch out for wheel bite though.

Did you see the new sector nine on their site that has a skier hucking a cliff on the bottom. I have to refrain myself from getting it. Arg! That would make number three.

i spent 4 hours in central park today bombing hills.. i met a bunch of other longboarders - it was sweet! i really want more speed though, i need bigger wheels and faster bearings.

I played at Houston today.
I'm slow with this damn knee.
Still scared after the experience with your longboard.

i saw kim last week and she said she saw you playing.. its not worth it dude.. be careful!

so dex, dont do what i did today on the longboard. we had a nice session going at the watchtower with a photographer and all.. beautiful shots looking back up at the brooklyn bridge (when i get at them ill post them).. the hill there is solid and i was on my big wheels and ceramic bearings just rocketing down it.. hit a rock, kicked into a nice slide.. hit another rock and the board stopped.. i did a nice superman digger going an easy 20 right on my chest. all in, fun day and we got some nice shots.. but i cant use my right hand right now.
