Dig the wave pool shots! I've never ridden one of those... I would imagine that if you eat it, it's a helluva slam, yes? Have fun and good luck in Paris.

Mayfair Market Ramp
On 5/1/2006 Jay LaPalm wrote in from United States  (4.246.nnn.nnn)

Hey Hackett, sick pic of you doing the "Jay Adams"! Thats got to be the Palisades Mayfair Market wall ride ramp! My bros and I rebuild that thing so many times. I remember having to yell "DROPPIN-IN" while shooting down the skinny downhill walkway entrance to the ramp because you couldn't see the ramp from where we took-off from. That ramp was the SH!T.

"Dude... you got 4 bricks!"

Jonny Miller, Lance (from Nor Cal) and myself will be at Pump Station this w/e, kicking a$$ and taking names.

Always great to see BLR anywhere, anytime. You guys make events fun. Thanks to Hackett, Olson, Fadell and the other BLR's for coming out. It was an honor.

Sorry about the loss of your friend Fausto. If you are a skateboarder, Fausto touched your life and that's the bottom line.

See you guys next year, hopefully sooner.



@ Olson - Thanks for throwing beer at me from the footbridge, bitch. SUCK IT! :)

Re: Pads
On 4/18/2006 Sumdumsurfer wrote in from United States  (71.107.nnn.nnn)

RAD shots, HACK!

As far as pads go, to each their own. On small terrain, I rarely ever have to kneeslide... I'm better off just running it out. But you're right about learning to kneeslide. It takes some concentration because I don't always utilize it. Thank God I have the sense to wear 'em in the bigger stuff. Otherwise, my knees would be toast and I probably wouldn't be skating.

BAD PADS
On 4/10/2006 HACKETT - BLACK LEATHER RACING wrote in from United States  (68.66.nnn.nnn)

I hate pads. Always have - Always will.
I consider doing a proper knee slide an actual trick.
After spending a good 10+ years running out of everything-
Doing a knee slide does not come easily or naturally for me.
I have to think about it.

I spent many, many sessions trying stuff without pads as seen here in this early
Andrecht (Before Andrecht) invert- Back then it was called a Jay Adams!

Besides, pads look LAME! They can also hinder your flexibility, and actually make you eat sh!t!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

In the photo above, is where pads are a good idea- 40MPH down Indian School Outlaw Ditch Race- Full Face helmet, Leather Jacket, WristBrace Gloves, and Knee Pads- This is where Pads actuall Look Good!



In the end, nothing beats the look of Scralping with no pads.
