team abq

[bear]

ok, now that its summer i have a lot of time on my hands. i used to be part of a group of longboarders known as road rash, and we recently dissolved( i don't know why). and so as i sat on my couch, i realized: if i set up a team of longboarders in abq, we could grow, and get the stoke spread even faster, and we could be known all over the place, and we would all have at least one person to ride with whenever we felt like it, so i decided to make one such team. it will be called: team albuquerque, as all people on it would be riders who live and ride in burque. the only requirements to be on it are: gotta live in albuquerque, have to love riding your board(s), and no posers! we wanna keep longboarding to a group of hardcore longboarders, and not let it turn into modern skateboarding with the posers, and the haters. so if you're interested in joining, email me at roadrashboarding@gmail.com for details. if we can get this off the ground, it could be sick. lets give it a try.

ride on,
BEAR

emailed!!! are you down for a session late night tonight?

[bear]

i can't bro. my sister's birthday is tonight, and my parents don't like it when i ride with someone i've never met before. they almost #### themselves the first time i rode w/ devon. they think all people on the internet are child molestors.

Sounds fun. We should get a phone book going so anyone can call anyone?

Also GFH boards are sending me a catalog and stickers and stuff to set up a street team here. We get a big discount, we get photos and videos put on their web site and my space, and we get known! We get to show the world ditch skating and how awesome 'burque is.

Edit to Bear's last post: I am a child molester... not really. If your parents want I can meet them.

[nyuklhed]

well it is an almost nightly occurance, and i'm way down to meet your parents, show 'em my driving record, whatever. i'm down to skate in the daytime too lol.

thanks guys. devon, you actually took up that gfh deal? i was going to, but then had second thoughts. but it will be good to get team abq out there, and on there website, n stuff. the phonebook thing sounds great. i've got both of your numbers, and if anyone else is interested, pm me your number and i'll get it started and sent to everyone.

I did follow up the GFH thing. So if anyone needs some cool cheap stuff let me know.
Does anyone have a good camera for pics and videos?
We could also set up our own website (if anyone can?) With some photos and videos and stuff?

[bear]

i have a team abq blog set up. and i can use my dad's camera(pictures, maybe video), they're nice. the link to the blog is:

southwestlongboarding.blogspot.com


not much, but it's a start. and, the first post i put on it is actually about pictures that have anything to do with longboarding, so if you have any, send em' to me.

[bear]

Black and green, for griptape and wheels!

I'm a medium.

Just got stickers and a catalog from GFH in the mail! So if anyone wants anything let me know.

[TM_Cruzer]

medium or large.

designs?

[nyuklhed]

small. green and black is a good call. something with 505 on it though, and 'burque.

[thokk2]

Logo idea----
profile of a board ...

But instead of wheels, zia's?

[nyuklhed]

nah, how 'bout we use a variation of the dukes logo. that was a bad ass logo


edit: what happened to the blog?? its not working

[thokk2]

Kinda like this---

Yes, this was done with paint....

[TM_Cruzer]

i saw a cool one today, it was a snow board w/ wings at the thin part.

could do that w/ the 505 zia symbol, where the wings attach.



side note, i was taking the SAT today at rio rancho high, i know it's far for most of you, but there were sick hills out the window that i couldn't stop thinking about.

anyone tried over there?
I might go sunday or monday...
