Dude that sucks, chemicals? People need to mind their own damn business. Its like the cops have nothing else better to do then bust us trying to have fun.

a felony charge? that sucks.  it's a shame they caught you doing something fun and productive instead of just hanging around in that ditch smoking meth.

...so true.

susej, have you got any new pics of your skatepark ? I'd really like to see how it came up

[susej]

Sorry, haven't got any more recent pictures, but nothing has been built since the bypass behind the rounded qp got finished. It still looks like in this

'10 12 5 CHILL SKATE JAM

All that's changed is that the mini mini is being resurfaced, and the green mini is being dismantled. It'll be taken down by the pig farm you can see in the background of some of the pics, and doubled in width. Where it is now will be concreted. We hope to have that whole area done by summer.

[shayan]

ok I see. You guys did a really nice job with the park! I'd love to skate come it but I'm in Canada so I can't really afford it! Cheers from montreal and by the way, were you the guy with the green hat?

Progress:

hey susej, that park of yours is rad and i'm thinking about using concrete cylinders as coping too, but i wanted to know how they grind

[susej]

shayan: yep, that's me with the green hat. Montreal huh? I went to McGill.

bob: those concrete cylinders are really hard to grind when you first give em a go, but once they're worked in, they grind like a dream.

what size are the cylinders? 6x12? i was thinking of going with 4x8 sized cylinders. i've never built anything to skate before so i could use any kinda of feed back or help i can get

Damn, susej, that looks sexy. me and my friends are planing on building a little DIY spot in this cul de sac in the woods. it'll be a while before the initial build, were focusing on suplies first and building when it gets warm. its just gonna be a concrete ledge, a quarter, and a pole jam. maybe a pump bump

[susej]

Rob, I'm pretty sure those cylinders are 4x8. Sounds right. If you put the tips of your thumbs together, and the tips of your index fingers together, they're that big around.

Tanner, just do something to get started. That's the hardest part. Once you got some work done, you can always go and do a bit at a time. You'll be glad you did.

 thanks susej. hopefully i'll have put up a concrete quarter by the spring as well as a picture to post up

[tanner moore]

susej, i totally agree. its a newly spawned idea, but will be started within the next couple of weeks. like i said, we need to make a trip to the home depot for 'crete and then go get some shit weve seen lying around our area (cinder blocks, a pole, stolen parking blocks, etc.).

also, a question to anyone who can answer, how hard is it to lift up a parking block? meaning, can you do it quick and unsuspicously? and what kind of crete is a good all around one?

[krusher]

Its been said many times around here but from what I understand for every 2 bags of ready-crete (any brand will do) add a heaping shovel full of Portland cement (any brand).

You can use #4 rebar as handles for parking blocks, just stab it through the holes and you and a buddy can turn the block on its side and carry it. If you're by yourself you can run rope and carry it like a bag. There are so many parking blocks that are not installed correctly and easy to steal just go for those.

If you stab a bunch of holes and fuck up a bunch of bags of concrete at the home depot when no one is looking, they'll be on a barging pallet in a couple of days

I'm planning to build a mini in a friend's backyard this summer it's going to be 18 feet long by 10 feet wide. 4" height with 6" extensions. but it's going to be in wood.. anyone knows how to make it last canadian winters eithout having to buy expensive stuff like ramp armor or anything like that cause we don,t have a lot of money for the project ..

[C H U C K]

Why on earth would you make a 4 inch tall ramp?

Why on earth would you make a 4 inch tall ramp?

i was going to say the same thing. i think he means he wants a 120cm tall ramp, being canadian and all.

anyone knows how to make it last canadian winters eithout having to buy expensive stuff like ramp armor or anything like that cause we don,t have a lot of money for the project ..

i've been thinking about one of these, if i move my ramp outside this summer.
