    Default Massive Road Trip Help

    Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the 'fish, been skating for about 2 years.

    A buddy and I are planning a road trip next summer from Central Texas to SoCal and want to make as many mind blowing skate stops along the way as we can find. I'm just wondering if y'all can suggest some stops for us.

    We mostly know only Central Texas, so anything West Texas to Nevada would be amazing. We're def gonna try to hit Albuquerque, other than that we're up for whatever. We're mostly lookin for ditches and hills i.e. carving and speed.

    Holler back

    You got hills in Belton? That's what everyone says about SA but they would be surprised. Def. plan on ditches an A-B-Q not that I've been but plan to. But what you really need to do is get a hold of SlyTx. He's a SLAB'r living in SoCal as of a couple a months ago. And he loves to search out good spots for us when we're out and about. Check out our Sticky a couple of days back cuz he posted a gnar hill he was going to do pretty soon.

    Happy Bombing

    By the way I was in Temple las weekend for an ol friends 50th. I woulda brung my rig if I'd knowd you was there.

    Haven't found too many sick hills in Belton yet, but it's cool since I just got an Original and I've only been in Belton for a few months. I was actually down in your neck of the woods in Seguin for the past four years. Found some pretty sweet hills and ditches there, but never made it out to SA to skate.

    I'll def check out that sticky.

    one other thing, I'm picking up on most acronyms and such so far, but what's a SLAB'r?

    thanks

    Stop in AZ. We've got hills that will make you cry. I'll be living there again at that time
