what a shame there is not a really nice quarter pipe at the end of that ramp to launch you into space

You know I have a couple of McTavish longboard skateboards. Or at least as close as possible to it. I got them off Ben W as he had a skateboard company before he bought it all from Cornish.

He gave me this super cool EVA grip tape for it that's perfect for skating bare foot. The other one I got is seriously 5 feet long.

I love cruising on my skatey in Summer.

Don't do it Mac, you're tooooo old. I think you should buy another cardigan and slippers and a rocking chair. Take it easy mate. Just sit back on the beach and watch those surfers and remember when you could surf like that. It is enough for you. Someone at your years should be taking it easy.

Cornish! There's a name I have not heard for a while. I think I used to have a Cornish board during a period of my life where my memory was not all that good.. It went pretty well too if it is the board I'm thinking of.

When I returned to surfing after a couple of years off my next board was a 802 Cornish I guess that's where my McT connection came from.

Mac - you don't have to 'bomb' hills at 70kmh... you can just cruise the paths etc... (and remember - that's where all the lycra treats are)

That the wonderful thing about middies, you reset that part of your brain that tells you not to do stuff.

I am sure you could easily ride a long board skateboard, you just have to decide if you want to. They do seem to be addictive.

You think I'd get a longboard skateboard, too many innocent people on the footpath for that. Not where you live, but where I live

Funny, everyone else always tells me to stop rubbing my balls
