Skating in Europe really does suck.PRETTY MUCH EVERY INTERVIEW I've ever read with a skateboarder from Europe touches on the subject about how bad the spots are where they're from, and how much better the spots in the US are. I recently had the opportunity to go to Europe for a week-and-a-half, and while I was there I kept my eyes open to see if what I had read was to be believed. You know what? It's totally true. A HIP IN LONDON LOOK AT THIS SHIT. You'd have to do like a foot-and-a-half ollie just to get onto this thing and then you'd only have like half a second to set up before you had to ollie again. Not like the hips in the US, where the bank goes all the way to the ground. I bet even Puleo would roll on by this crapper. Bloody hell. A BANK IN AMSTERDAM WHAT THE SHIT is this? Is that some sort of Euro-skate stopper? A damn propeller propeller, device consisting of a hub with one or more blades that propels a craft to which it is attached by rotating its blades in a fluid such as air or water. on the bank? That rough-ass brick looks like it would have made the bank shitty shit·ty adj. shit·ti·er, shit·ti·est Vulgar Slang 1. Of very poor quality; highly inferior. 2. Contemptible; despicable. 3. Unfortunate; unpleasant. 4. enough as is, but to put a damn propeller on top of that definitely ups the suckiness. A WALLIE POLE JAMMER IN PARIS Paris, in Greek mythology Paris or Alexander, in Greek mythology, son of Priam and Hecuba and brother of Hector. Because it was prophesied that he would cause the destruction of Troy, Paris was abandoned on Mt. , FRANCE France (frăns, Fr. fräNs), officially French Republic, republic (2005 est. pop. 60,656,000), 211,207 sq mi (547,026 sq km), W Europe. CHECK THIS CRAP. This pole jam isn't even bent over. It's just sitting there completely freaking freak·ing adv. & adj. Slang Used as an intensive: Traffic was a freaking nightmare. [Alteration of frigging, present participle of frig.] vertical. How are you supposed to ride up that shit? And let's just suppose you do manage to somehow ride up that thing and jam over it. Then what? You run into a pile of trash. And not just ordinary trash either. Euro-trash. A QUARTERPIPE IN LONDON AND DUDE, look at this quarterpipe. What the hell type of surface is that? Crumbled asphalt? The only smooth part on it has some dude's name sticking out Adj. 1. sticking out - extending out above or beyond a surface or boundary; "the jutting limb of a tree"; "massive projected buttresses"; "his protruding ribs"; "a pile of boards sticking over the end of his truck" of it too. And even if you got to the lip, your board would run into some sculpture dude's feet. Why put a sculpture of some dude on the top of a quarterpipe? That dude should be like hanging out next to the quarterpipe chilling on a marble horse or some shit. Right? A DOUBLE SET IN COLOGNE, GERMANY THIS WAS PROBABLY the most rideable spot that I came across, but still. A one-one double set? That shit is never going to make the magazines. I don't care
"Don't Care" is a 1994 (see 1994 in music) single by American death metal band Obituary. what trick you do down this thing, you aren't going to be able to put it in your sponsor-me video. This kind of shit might have cut it in '92, but nowadays you've gotta be hitting the double digits Double Digits was a pricing game on the American television game show, The Price Is Right. Played from April 20, 1973 through May 18, 1973's show, it was played for a car and used small prizes. when you add up those stairs. Hey, don't blame me, blame Frankie Hill. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT KIND OF SPOT THIS IS: COLOGNE, GERMANY OK, THIS pretty much sums it up. What is this shit? How are you going to skate on this? It's completely grass. And not that hard packed grass that you can sort of roll on. No. It's just fluffy, soft-ass grass. If I were a skateboarder in Europe I would definitely be doing some California Dreamin' if this was the sort of shit I had to deal with. Christ almighty. |
