gonna throw this in here for the whole soumdtrack, but especially odd numbers. basically my whole summer of 1991 watching this and trying to learn. @AngryMetalsmith @jackalope @SuboptimusPrime you guys ever skate eastern vert? (see 36:00-ish on)? stoked to have done so. neal hendrix and his endless runs are so sweet.

Never skated ramps as a kid, but @Dogboy may some insight here. Cool vid tho!

But....but...international market! Rammstein is one of the few exceptions, funny how many non-native speakers like them. All the hidden meanings of the lyrics get totally lost on them.

Yep! Skated Eastern Vert a few times and with Neal. I wasn't great on vert ramps though, could never get used to the speed/scale of them. Loved a 6 or 7 foot ramp though and lots of street skating.
Same same . . . always preferred mini ramps. The one with the spine at EV was nice. I remember riding one in Carrboro, one in a barn in Mebane, and my buddy in Durham had one in his backyard. We also used to sneak out to the one at the ymca camp near Louisburg(?) until they caught on and started chaining it. But mostly just skated all over downtown Durham when it was sketchy as hell to do so!

scrublover got me in to the Like A Version wormhole, TV off, headphones on, and there's an hour gone.


Bit of native tongue at the start.

This popped up on my YouTube homepage yesterday. AOF is releasing their first album in 13 years this summer, and if this track is any indication, it's gonna be a banger.

I'm very excited, and I'm not even Canadien.

I haven’t listened to them in a while. Thanks for the reminder.
Same, and I heard Happy Idiot on the radio today, weird.

Tonight is ginger beer, pizza and electronic music night. I probably need to get social media back so I stop annoying teh Monkeys, hahaha!
