Damn!!! That photo is awesome.
I headed over to check out @knowhow92 and gave him a follow after poking around a little. I'm super happy there's a skate community on here! I can't wait to look into it more tomorrow.
4 years no skate and you still got your kickflips; that's impressive! I'm a pretty trash skater, as much as I love it, and I've only "landed" a handful of tre's in my life. Usually sideways and barely moving. Snowboarding has always come much easier to me. And I love riding park. That's why sugarbush appeals to me so much; the park. I grew up in Burlington and have moved all over but just recently I kinda decided I loved the east coast and settled on Sugarbush. I really want to go to Jay though. I've become spoiled(and broke) and have been so fucking hesitant when it comes to actually buying a ticket somewhere.
Congrats on the kid!! That's awesome. Definitely a good reason not to skate for a bit
Hey, nice to meet you @herbetholmes2! If you ever feel like sharing skate content, you know in which community to share it now right? Hehehhe!
I am stoked to meet new skaters on Hive too bro! Can't wait to see some skate clips from both you and @cmplxty!
We are organizing a HUGE Game of S.K.A.T.E contest and both you and @cmplxty might wanna take a look at it!
The first trick is the POP SHOVE IT and everyone gets something for landing it!
The deadline for the first trick is on Monday so you guys have 2 days to land that shit! Hehhe!
More here :
Yo! I saw that!!
I've never really made any effort to get any skate clips. Out of my friends, I've always been by far the worst skater, so I've spent more of my "getting clips" time on the other end of the camera; I used to have a VX and did that whole thing for a few hours.
But I'll try and get some clips for HIVE though! And I did see the SKATE contest. Ironically, I kind of just signed off from Instagram a few days and decided to take a break from that platform. Can I upload the clip here to 3speak? Or, I'll just hop back on Instagram! Hhaha
Stoked to be here!
You can upload the clip on LBRY or Instagram dude! I wish I could allow 3speak videos but rules are rules dude! LBRY is an awesome platform to share your content though ;)
The more crypto we stack the better! You have 2 days to land a Shove it! Deadline is on Monday! I hope you manage to make it in time yo!
Weekends are kind of slammed for me in terms of work but I'll try to find the time to skate tonight! I hope I don't miss the deadline.
I haven't heard to LBRY. I used to be more active on these things but I went a few years without a computer until a few months ago, so I'm way behind. I will check it out!
Thanks man!
I'm pumped that you found some people to connect with for skating dude!
I had a pretty solid crew of skaters for many years, some of my friends became amateur skaters for some local and national companies before things happened that stopped them from skating the way they used to. I was never good enough to be sponsored but I think I had a fair amount of tricks I was good at, it was definitely a lot of fun and some of the best times I could have asked for growing up. One of my favorites was definitely tre's. I think I had a good style to them, with what I felt was the most stylish was a fakie tre. It might have looked like shit to others but my perspective they looked cool lol.
I have never been good at board parks, I love to ride them and hit the smaller jumps but I get nervous with speed on those areas so I know now that's my downfall lol. I always think I'm going too fast and I'm gonna clear the landing and break my leg. I've had a few tough falls over the years, nothing broken but scary nonetheless lol. I love medium jumps that have a landing area, love pulling indies and methods and stuff over them.
Jay has one of the better ticket prices for mountains in the area but the best thing about jay is the glades! I literally spent an entire day in the glades and was happy as a pig in shit. It’s so chill but challenging being in there especially on a board.
Thanks dude, I have tried to keep a low profile with stuff for our son so I don’t get hurt when he needed a lot of attention. I think nowadays I can probably try to do a thing or two again but we’ll see how it goes!
Glad that we connected man, it’s hard to find New England people on here sometimes! Especially skaters!

I'm definitely glad we connected. Until you brought all this to my attention, I was still under the misconception that there was absolutely no skaters or snowboarders on HIVE; or rather I'm talking about my past experience with Steemit. I think I must of just missed when that changed- I stopped really using the platform in the beginning of 2018 due to complications with tech difficulties/mental health problems.
I'd love to check out Jay. I've been fortunate enough to always snowboard for free- whether that be from employment or "sponsorship"(more like just connections in which mountains would put me on their "team"; but I never really considered myself a serious sponsored rider); that in combination of constant financial and car difficulties; the thought of buying a ticket to other mountains has been a very unrealistic thing in my mind in the past. But, things have been getting a lot better for me over the past few years(well, pre-COVID, that is 😂), so I'm definitely more open to going to other mountains in the future.
