my cousin competed in the first 10 x-games and has a gold* medal in vert triples. he gave me the movie, and he was my childhood hero, since he was 9 years older and was known as the rebel of Sparta lol.
I loved it as a kid. Roller blading that is, not seen that movie. I remember a couple of Christmas where they were my main gift I asked for.my cousin competed in the first 10 x-games and has a good medal in vert triples. he gave me the movie, and he was my childhood hero, since he was 9 years older and was known as the rebel of Sparta lol.

haha ill stop spamming this thread but i gotta respond to thatThere used to be a Sega mega drive game called skitching. It was like road rash but with roller blades and you would hang on the back of cars
Yes we did a bit of skitching on the new buses when we got them in town. I think I did it twice, basically between bus stops, so a few hundred metres. My memory pretty much stops there. We all just seemed to stop roller blading, I can't quite remember why. Must've been 12-13 and that was thathaha ill stop spamming this thread but i gotta respond to that
i was literally sitting here trying to remember what the term was, cause thats one of the things he did: skitching
when kids would get ambulanced out of ungerman field football games, the crowd would turn around and see him skitching on the ambulance up Sparta avenue
then hed skate back and hang out with his younger cousins. so in my head, it made us look cool since we knew the crazy older kid lol
damnmnn i miss being a kid. that was fun
I was a skateboarder back in the day. I still have flash backs to the time we went to a shit skate park in Romford and on the way back there was a really steep road we thought would be fun to ride down.

Lol. I just mentioned skitching, the exact bus stop I was on about I circled out into it once and wham. A fucking cyclist going full pelt hit me in the back. Had them fucken bull horn things on his handlebars. He goes flying off his bike and eats shit, then gets up and is furious at me, thought he was gonna beat me up, all my friends were silent watching him lose his rag. Then he calmed down a bit and demanded my name and address and fucked off.I was a skateboarder back in the day.

When I got to the bottom doing enough speed to be glued to the deck I realised it spat me out to a main road. Cars doing 40mph. I knew if came off I would just be carried by inertia into the middle of the road and run over and killed and if I tried to stop I would just skid into the road and die. So I just leaned left as hard as I could and and made the angle as acute I dared. I was spat into the road at maybe a cars width, causing I’m sure , a very frightened and shocked motorist to swerve enough to avoid me but also avoid the incoming car on the other side of the road doing at least 40.
i managed to hold onto to the board even with what seemed a thousand car horns blaring at me.
Fucking terrifying. pretended to my ashen faced mates it was all planned but I still get flashbacks of it.
not being funny. But he sounds like a decent fella.Lol. I just mentioned skitching, the exact bus stop I was on about I circled out into it once and wham.

A few days later there was a knock at the door. It was the coppers doing a welfare check because the chap had given them my details. He'd basically given them a tip that he'd hit me on his bike and fucked off, the coppers wanted to know if I knew his name, they diddnt care much if I was okay.
Probably. I don't know what the laws are for being on roller skates in a designated bus stop area tbh. I saw it the same way, he let them know because he was worried he'd injured me or something. The coppers weren't tho. Maybe someone had seen him yelling at me or something when it happened. But that was that, I remember the look my mum gave me when the police knocked on the door, I don't think I'd mentioned it to her, she had some evil "what did you do now you little cunt" look in her eyenot being funny. But he sounds like a decent fella.
you were in the wrong no?
your mum sounds sound.Probably. I don't know what the laws are for being on roller skates in a designated bus stop area tbh.
