i was thinking about something yesturday, and i thought maybe some of you guys can identify with how im feeling. i've been longboarding for a little over a year now, and skated shortboards for 5 years before that. However, skating shorties eventually made me feel inadequate. I looked up to the "pros" like Bam Margera, and I saw them pulling off amazing tricks all over the place. since i started longboarding, its been all i think about. the feelings ive gotten from tearing down parking garages and carving up new pavement...not to mention dancing...have been amazing. Here's to longboarding.

Same story here, I skateboarded for about 4-5 years before i started college, then i started longboarding and haven't picked up skateboarding since. There is nothing better than the fluid motion of a longboard... dancing, bombing, carving... it's all good

to top all that off our longboarding icons, in my case the adams, are humble, funny, and are guys we can easily identify with.

I thought K-Rimes was from Canada well anyway he is a beast Downhill longboarder and is pretty young. He's won several races and has even been on the show scarred. he's in white www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtoQoqwST94

oh snap my bad...again. you're right eskimo, k-rimes is from canada. i was looking at the rayne website and at their riders and it said kevin was featured in an article in the Czech playboy..strange. i was like wtf? i still dont know why he was in that magazine, but whatever
