UCSC/Santa Cruz longboarders unite!

[Dinosaur]

I'm looking for anyone that attends UCSC or in the area of Santa Cruz to see if they would be down for some sessions. Maybe the UC parking garage or any hills around here would be cool. If you guys know of any existing group please let me know. Hope to hear back from you guys.

we have a good Asian/hispanic/mixed population and we don't just have hippies. I'd say it's pretty diverse.

There are hippies on campus but i would say they make up a mere 3-5%. Rather people are environmental oriented, but who isn't now a days? You don't see people really preaching but you hear about the issues of the environment is facing and what people want to do about it. I probably hear something like that maybe once a month.

Santa Cruz is laid back and has good weather, i wouldn't want to go many other places for college, and I'm not a hippie or anything like that.

and btw is that felt st? also where is that trail head?

What I'm really questioning is how many dimes are there.

you'd be surprised. There aren't as many as the bay has to offer, but i am sure you will find a good amount to your liking.

glad someone finally revived a santa cruz thread

been reading the fish for a while now, but as you can see have never posted.

i graduated UCSC about three years back, and only recently gotten back into longboarding after pretty much not skating through college

anyways if folks are meeting up let me know.

I also have a Dirtsurfer that I bought recently that I've spent little time on (working full time), but i've taken it down some fireroads in upper campus and wilder ranch and think the trail system overall is among the best in the country. So if anyone mountainboards or has a dirtsurfer hit me up please!
