Ditchin' School (video)

[assumeivan]

Fun ditch, a lot of people had some problems with how steep the banks are. Great mornings though.

That looks hella fun.

Musical Youth - Pass the Dutchie

with the sample in the beginning going to U-Brown - Get Ready Skank Steady (i'm almost positive)

[assumeivan]

wait what?

[BoMbHiLlS92]

Thats sick, where is that it?

[assumeivan]

it's in the video bro

[HailStorm101]

what are all the different boards everyone has?

[assumeivan]

hailstorm:

two flexdex glass grenades, both with tracker rts/x, one with blue rocks one with red
chicagolongboard mini, i think tracker darts and avilas
s9 bingin, randal 180's, flashbacks (this board is so fun)

i need to take my ew drifter there, the transission from the bank to the straight is pretty abrupt and the longboards don't take it too easy

[RastamanD]

aww no over the hole thing.....steep banks but looks super fun

[assumeivan]

as much as i would've liked to skate over that thing, i think its safe to say its impossible

[David H]

wait what?

bit of a non sequitur...

I got this CD, Jamaican Ska Core 4, sick compilation of a buncha jamaican ska. Unfourtionatly, a buddy is borrowing it at the moment, and i never ripped it onto my computer, but i'm 90% positive that the intro to the song in the video is the same as the intro to one of the songs on the CD, probably U-Brown. I'll let you know for sure in a few days when i can get it back.

...aaand i digress. sick ditch, sick video. keep 'em comin.

[assumeivan]

i see, maybe both the songs have teh same intro

For myself, next to downhill, theres no discipline of skating more fun than ditch skating.

aww no over the hole thing

Exactly what i was thinking, that holes just begging to be ridden over. Judging by what i can see from the video, that holes not impossible to ride over. Getting enough speed and using a board with a kicktail is definetely in order though. I really dig that ditch.

[assumeivan]

if you're referring to maybe an ollie or some kind of grab+air, maybe!

but if you're talking about skating over the very top of it, no go

the amount of surface between the top of the hole and the very top of the ditch is maybe about 8-10 inches max, and the hole is pretty close to the start of the ditch, so in terms of speed, you can't get much

maybe i could build up a ramp to drop in at the beginning

Shut yer face boy! i live in albuquerque, a city full of REAL ditches, and that hole is puny compared to some i ride over, with a hellcat, thank you very much. also, you guys go to slow. my four year old sister rides ditches better.

lol, it's people like you that make this forum sometimes unbearable, any video posted just to share always seems to get some sort of unnecessary criticism

never any stoke on the fish anymore

[unquestionable]

nice dude, seems like a fun sesh and a chill spot

[sup3rsh3ep]

sweet video. want to find a nice easy ditch like that, only one around here is pretty ridiculous.
