well basically laws on photography and journalism. im not sure what to look for in terms of 'legal terms' for that so im lost. just looking for something that tells you what you can shoot, when, where, and what you have to do to get permissions.

also any website that overviews swedish law would be helpful too.

Bombed a decent hill, got some funny looks from the group of bikers coming from the other direction.

Got even funnier looks from some other bikers when I trailed them down an even bigger hill and kept up with them

an hour and a half of hard cones, my legs are jello. Actually it was a god session though I set too loose a course which actually required a lot of pumping to stay fast...thus the reason my legs are shot but it was nice..

A little late but here are flics from the 4th

Me and a buddy went through the 2 mile parade route all day long. getting yelled at by cops, some skitching, hamburgers. All that fun stuff.

found a new garage tonight, about 6 stories, a little bit of traffic, but pretty chill, then the cops came

Me and my friend were going down the sidewalk and we passed this Starbucks and there was a lady drinking something. She threw it down in front of me and I had to swerve to miss the glass. She mumbled something and I said what??? And then she said ****. So I politely responded 'you too!' Then she started following us on a bike and my friend was afraid of being stabbed by her. She kept yelling **** behind us. Then we let her pass and she said "you sure are friendly."

**Tagsrover** · 07-07-2008 05:20 PM

Skated around campus, just chill cruising and some carving, had to bail three times (twice because of monster step-up uneven cracks in the sidewalk, and once because bikers were on the edge of the sidewalk as i bombed a hill corner so i had to hang wide into the grass) but hot as hell. Besides all that though good to be back on the board after a 7 week hiats.

**kookyfish** · 07-07-2008 06:16 PM

had a nice wee ride in to work today, my knees are play`n up with the cold winter mornings.

**ALEC_[XAN]_DUR** · 07-07-2008 06:45 PM

cool picture^^^

so this week is suppose to get the hottest it has all summer. alll up in the 100+ degree temps.

so i went out to board to the mall, around a 4 mile ride one way, and hangout with my brother and see if anyone wanted to chill or anythign like that. it was HOT today. 110 degrees. the ride to the mall not bad. a few hills but nothin big. the ride back. insane. i thoguht i was going to pass out a few time. i had water for the ride to, but was out for the ride back. bad mistake. i got back and the first thing my dad said to me was "man your face is red!"

not gunna make that mistake again.

I learned Switch slides today. It was sick! Got a Slide Shove-It in too. It was a good day...

**jspats40** · 07-07-2008 08:01 PM

i went for a nice around town sesh. i always see people who join me, its nice to see how longboarding spread throughout my town. just thank me

**BUboarder** · 07-07-2008 08:17 PM

been out several of the last few nights along white bear lake, a beautiful little area near me that's got a walk/bike path and one way street around a section of it, and it's been repaved with this great little surfy curb between the two. really have pumping down now, which gets some looks from people, and is a good workout!

tonight i also tried "skogging" or switch pushing or whatever you'd like to call it, and it really is quite fun and keeps both legs fresher than if you only push with one! now i just have to keep doing it so i'm completely comfortable pushing with either leg, and then maybe work on switch stance...that still causes me to wobb at cruising speeds

i've been real courteous to everyone out walking and biking, saying "hello" or " 'evening" to folks, and being careful to stay out of the way, etc. most everyone's been all smiles, nods, or non-obscene hand gestures so far. amazing what kind of respect a little bit of everyday stoke and politeness'll get ya.....

**dragginhands** · 07-07-2008 10:20 PM

man today i got worked so hard. i went on a recon looking for good hills in an area im not familiar with and i found a beautiful hill. i drove it twice to check the turns and whatnot. but damn when i actually started to skate it, it was way faster than i thought. went down twice but made them count... slid into a tree the first time and into traffic the other (scarred the sh!t out of me...). my slide gloves basically saved my life today and that isnt an exaggeration at all. God dude tonight was bad. somehow i got roderash through my jeans. i realize more now than ever how badly i need leathers though. so that realization i guess made this session worth it. im going to be so sore tomorrow...

dlfkajf;'lkasjfdaxf <- my frustration.
