i would drive by this
bump almost daily coming
from andy/wiggys ramp
back to the house.
but it was rough and slow
and just kinda lacked
due to the fact that by the time
you finished pushing your
ass off and got to the top of
the thing you were almost
at a stand still. Mark and i
were skating my vert ramp
from time to time and real
needed ad... so i asked
Mark if he wanted to ollie over
me on my motorcycle.
Mark always seemed
down for trying
some different kinda skate
shit. So we went by this spot
and i pulled out my
massive street legal mc90. I get
throttling and mark would
clench onto my shoulder with
his long fingers and nails and
we would haul at that bump..
he kicked it away a few times
only once the board into my
side. It ended up going down
pretty quick. My shoulder was
black and blue for days
after from Mark grabbing on for
the tow. The spots still
there and i still have the mc90.
mark you down for a redo?
thanks for the reminder
and all the rad content
Vert is Dead
