I saw on the bike thread that you skate too. How long and what do you ride?

It's a Powell 7 3/4 deck with Independant trucks, Point Blank 48mm wheels, China bone bearings. I've hardly had time to skate lately due to school, but I plan to have a session today due to my lack of interest in the sports carnival. @:-)
What's your setup?

Just wondering but what do all you skate boarders think of rollerbladers and BMXers?

Skaters think in-line skaters (and especially people who think it's called "rollerblading") suck.
Dunno about BMX'ers, but I think that they have more respect for them. |

I ride a a Real team board (the one with their logo sideways), Thunder trucks and spitfires. I ride super loose on the trucks for maximum turning ability and the best shop around is Deluxe in San Francisco (I've bought most of my decks from there).
Its beenm awhile since I've skated due to work but when I was going to college I would ditch class all the time in favor of skating.
Late,

I now ride with medium trucks. I used to ride super loose aswell, but someone rode my deck at the local and convinced me to tighten them up. Never gone back really. Peer pressure? LOL
The general consensus of bladers and BMX'ers I've heard is that BMX'ers aree c**ts as they hog the park, and skaters hate bladers on principal. @:-) Tho I have no probs with either. I used to ride BMX, and I dig Ice skatin' so I'd prolly get into blading. I shall unite ye all under one banner!! @;-) |

I think that all of the young people starting out skateboarding(grommets I think theyre called) are pretty decent but the older ones are a bunch of dicks, no matter where they skate they think they own it and tell everyone else to fuck off. BMxers are a real problem though they do hog the park, but thats because the have bikes with these huge bars stickin out. But theyre still gay.
