Stoked to see there are so many skaters on Pinside!!! I'm still at it at 46 years old. Attached are pics of the new mini I built in my garage, a post session pic with Cab at my friend Tom's Bowl, and Tom's incredible and personal concrete Skate Park called Whip Snake. Find me if you're ever in Charlotte and want to skate....or play pinball.

Quoted from golfingdad1:

Thanks all,
These sold in 1 day on local CL, surprisingly!
I probably didn't ask enough , what you guys think that lot of six decks is worth ?

$800-$1k?

Quoted from pinballjah:

No value to this board? I thought these were rare. Thanks.

I don't collect Alva, so I'm not certain on this one. That said, if it was mine, I don't think I'd sell it. Keep riding that bad boy!

A couple of my favorite spots.

Quoted from Clytor:

Where are these?

The bowl is in Waxhaw, NC and the park is in Lancaster, SC. Both are private, but the owner usually opens them to everyone on the weekends.

Quoted from Waderade812:

The End is epic. Heath and Jeremy shred in that video. Does anyone want to argue about the second song? I had the version with Don't Come Around Here No More by Tom Petty.

I have the version with Queen and David Bowie's Under Pressure. I like Tom Petty, but Under Pressure is a much better song for that killer part!

Black Friday session.

Skating the garage mini tonight. Not pinball related, but I added this beast to my office last week.

Quoted from PhilGreg:

What are the dimensions? Man I so wish I could have a ramp to skate in the winter - I'm thinking up all kinds of schemes like buying an apartment building with a big garage just to build a ramp in the garage Or spending my winters in Florida - I'm in software so I could do it if it were just me, but the wife and kids aren't as mobile

10ft wide. 6.5ft transitions. About 8ft flat. Almost 3 ft high. Built like a tank with 3 layers. It’s a real good time year round. From pinball to skateboard ramps, my wife puts up with a lot of shenanigans.

I like it, looks like mine! I got boom box sides added!

Those sides are cool. Where did you find them?

Quoted from Waderade812:

8:30 is just to early for those young rippers. Mighty lonesome out here.

Best time to be there....before the scooters show up.

Quoted from golfingdad1:

Question for the collectors , do you really care if the deck is its shrink wrap? As long as its just been hung on a wall ?

I don’t care about shrink wrap as it proves nothing. I’ve also hear stories of decades old shrink wrap damaging graphics. Open it up and enjoy it!

Hit Kona when I was in Jacksonville for business this week.

Quoted from PhilGreg:

Nice!
My brother in-law lives in Jacksonville and I was planning to go last time with the kids but ended up going to the Jacksonville Beach skatepark twice instead which I thought was great as well.
[quoted image]
How did you like Kona?

Kona is a great spot in the old 70’s style. I love the snake run and the big bowls. I will try the Jacksonville Beach Park next time.
