Skate Quiver: Bulldog Tsunami

This stick is another Bulldog Skates (BDS) creation from 2004. This one is signed by the Bulldog and is #37 of 100 signed, with a total production run of 300 if I'm not mistaken. Sweet.

Again, some folks think I am remiss for using this piece of "art" in the manner that it's intended, i.e. actually skating it, but that is in fact what it was made for.......

It is a fairly large board with dimensions of 36" x 11" with a mellow concave and quite a bit of flex, compared to most skates today. It'll skate vert, but you gotta' give it some room and keep trying to remember to carve and flow with it and not just rip around. I usually have it set up with some fairly soft wheels for skating around town and bombing hills and parking lots. Haven't had a chance to skate a ditch with it yet but I bet it'd be a hoot. Can you say lip-slide?.......

It's great to bomb sidewalks and parking lots with. The downtown cops here love me because I'm not the nornal punk-ass kid that they usually hassle for "skating illegally", whatever in hell that means. If you'll read that last sentence with some sarcasm in your voice it'll read better the second time around.........
