Subject: Deejays skate thread son! Sat Aug 31, 2013 9:45 pm
I skated for around 12 years before I tore my acl, I was never big into filming or anything, but I do have a few videos I can post in memory of my skate career! I hope you guys enjoy! Let me know!
This is the first video I ever filmed! I think I was like 13-14? Its just me and my best friend.
This one is one I filmed shortly after with one of my friends cameras. .
This some stuff I found on my computer from around the same time, maybe a year or so later?
After I filmed this one, I didn't film much at all for a few years so there is a gap, haha.
I filmed this montage with some homies when I moved to a new town, its the teaser and the full. Im obviously the really tall dude, with long black hair in a ponytail. (ive since gotten a haircut)
And then It comes down to my last video before the injury that I posted earlier, Ill post here too.
If you watched all these, or even one of em... thanks! I loved skating, and will miss it for the rest of my life!

Whaaaat, suck that such talent all went down the drain :/ You fucking killed it.
Thanks man! Its crazy how one trick can change your life forever. It was something ridiculous that I would do everyday also. A 360 flip fakie in the bowl at my local park. Landed on my back leg with all my weight and the ground came all too fast!

Wow, crazy how that one injury means you can't skate for a long time. That really sucks, you were an amazing skater Deejay!
i love that last video you posted. i cant wait to see fb footy from you
Im working on a mini right now, Im not very consistent so im taking my time. Im still learning the fingerboard game, I used to just tech deck when I was younger... learned kickflips and got bored. Now its completely different and Ive only been in it for maybe 3 months or so?
Its comin, just slowly! Im a perfectionist!

Fair play to you man those were some sweet videos like everyone said its such a shame that you cant jump back on a board and just go and have a sesh because of an injury.

Sucks that you got injured and now you can't skate. You're freaking good! I can't do a mini parkour session because my ankles can't take the impact like they used to. Idk how that happen. Glad you found fingerboarding though!
