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 :lol:

Still think we need to get a roofers blowtorch sorted out for future clean ups 8)

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...

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!!! :D 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!!!

Re: potters bar

Brilliant session today chaps and great to see so many of us there ~ we nearly had the full set :D

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 ..-

What a wash out this morning :evil: 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 8)

Winter sucks :(
