drooling....

Reno needs something like that...

**ol'dude** · 08-22-2002 08:34 PM

Doc, everywhere needs something like that. Including here... it's an hour drive to those puppies for me. And that's just too far.

**Longbourder** · 08-22-2002 08:41 PM

YOU ARE SO FREAKIN LUCKY!!!! I'v got to go now!!!!

**ol'dude** · 08-22-2002 08:47 PM

Imagine what those ditches are going to look like with some of the best (and craziest) downhillers in the world trying to prove themselves.

**Longbourder** · 08-22-2002 09:00 PM

Ya. All I'v got around here thats really good is the Brooklyn Banks in NYC. I was at a Skaters Unite AllCity-Skatejam theres some footy, at http://www.metrospective.com That was Chinken Puckin NUTS!

Looks nuts, man. Concrete is fun, regardless of the length of your board.
We have the advantage of a desert atmosphere... it doesn't rain much, but when it does, we need 40 foot deep ditches.

ol dude, isn't that you in the photo entitled: "Joe Timeship flying under the bridge"? I seem to remember that pic as your avatar. Very nice shot...

**Longbourder** · 08-22-2002 09:17 PM

I wish there was 1 good Ditch by my house. I'v been to FDR skatepark in Philly a few time and thats NUTS also. You get mondo speed and it flows like a wave. I have a 36' pool deck that work more then great there.

Aren't those ditches a little dangerous? I remeber seeing vid of some kids who were skating in one get swept away when a ton of water started coming down.

**Longbourder** · 08-22-2002 09:25 PM

Not if it's in Dry Season

**ol'dude** · 08-23-2002 06:29 AM

D.Max, I took the picture of Joe Timeship... he's a good friend, part-time employer, and the founder of TimeShip Racing. He's also the one that put together the Sandia Challenge & Bear Slalom in September.

I do research with a girl that went to Sandia high school.
