Re: potters bar
interesting skate today,now no that setting fire to a bowl is Not the way to| go but was fun watching and the mini bmx was justunreal
No one ever said it was gonna be easy
Re: potters bar
Certainly was an interesting session Andy ~ did you and sean get to skate much in the end ? WTF is mini BMX ?
Has the bowl recovered now
Still think we need to get a roofers blowtorch sorted out for future clean ups
Have a good week mate and hope to catch up next weekend for a proper skate, weather permitting !

Ah, the mini BMX. I saw it last night, some machine it is. I think she goes by the name of "Sweet Heart". Not much else is known about this fabled steed...
The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time
Re: potters bar
She is definitely the town bike!!!! I certainly rode her hard....
Re: potters bar
Not sure about the weather but i'm up for sat/Sun 
No one ever said it was gonna be easy
Re: potters bar
Count me in,hopefully the weather holds out!
Re: potters bar
Will definitely be there one morning, which day will probably be dependent on the weather forecast !
Hopefully all this rain will have cleaned the bowl a bit
See you there

Re: potters bar
it was great to meet you guys today, thanks for the friendly welcome, and cheers for letting me try your boards!! god, what a eye opener to how decent boards feel!! so tempted to burn my crappy thing!!!
and the girls loved it, they really thought they'd get laughed at, they can't wait to come down again next weekend for longer!!! 

if you ain't crashing, you ain't trying!!!!
Re: potters bar
Brilliant session today chaps and great to see so many of us there ~ we nearly had the full set
Great to meet Rob as well and hopefully see you back there next week mate. Hope it helped trying out a few very different boards, but probably just confused you even more !! Do keep an eye on the MAS for sale section, that way you dont need to spend so much initially and still get a good quality board.
Probably best not to think about sizes etc too much at this stage, just get something decent quality to get you started. I guarantee that no matter what you buy now you will be buying (lots of) new bits within a few months.
See you all next weekend

Re: potters bar

Whose skating which days ? Sunday is probably best for me but if more will be going Saturday I could probably do that instead.
Unfortunately I wont get away with both days

Re: potters bar
It was dry in Hemel this morning so we went down...and the park was soaked. Bummed out..
Re: potters bar

Re: potters bar
What a wash out this morning
even our combined collection of mops and things made no difference this time !
Did anywhere dry out enough for a skate later on ?
Fingers crossed for better weather next weekend and I still think we need a decent roofers blowtorch to dry these parks out
Winter sucks
