2003 ish i guess. bought a 10 dollar complete from wal-mart. i think its like 9-ply, with a rad psychedelic pattern on the bottom, and big chunky plastic baseplates. the bolts weren't even countersunk. yeah, thats right. it was what you would call "the works." started rolling down my driveway, then my street. took me aproximately forever to learn how to ollie. Skated in the rain and ruined the griptape. graduated to a sweet 50 dollar complete from the interwebz. I was such a big spender.

every one of my friends quit to smoke weed, i still suck, and i still have fun.

Shit man. Going on 5 years. I'm 18 now, so I guess that makes it 2003? Even in these five years, things have changed. Politics man, Politics.

pretty much nothing's changed in 10 years!
5 years used to mean a world's difference in skating, new tricks and styles
now the sport's all grown up    Cool
