We here at éS Footwear (pictured above) would like to wish you and yours a Happy New Year and all the best in 2006. So, what are your New Year’s resolutions?
i’m going to learn some rail tech and work on vert this year, and hopefully break my first bone in 14 years so my parents will kick me out cause they say they have no money
Happy new year.
my new years resolution is to nollie heel down 5.
i know im bad compared to you guys but ive only been skating for a year\half.
good luck for your tricks.
this is my new years resolution: to wake the stereotype skaters up! who the fuck wants to see a part where a guy rails down 10 stair handrails and flips down 12 stairs? so boring. and it doesn’t even make you want to go skate. take a look at louie barletta. hes got a magnificent (spelling?) part in the osiris vid and does amazing things that i didn’t even imagine to be possible. but then lets take some random up-and-coming kid who doesn’t even know about anything else but handrails and stairs. who caresif hes got balls to throw down only hammers and such? i respect those who really are skilled and have imagination to push skateboarding forwards, not them who copy everyone else. amen.
Handrails and stair sets are just obstacles. Personally, I myself like to skate flat ground occasionally, and a few ledges and gaps here and there. If you look at someone like Eric Koston, he skates everything, litterally. Rails, stairs, ledges, banks, pools, vert, everything. So, the next time you watch Yeah Right! or Menikmati, pay close attention to his part, because if he can do it then surely most of us can as well. Don’t hesitate, hesitation is what get’s you hurt, it’s full speed ahead. Go skate.
In response to the_moeminator- Koston skated vert back in the late 80’s and then I’m pretty sure that he quit. Anyway he talks about that on Solecollector.com, very good site by the way.
resolutions eh?
how about just skating wherever withough any tricks planned
i say that sounds a lot more fun than being stressed out about some gap or some rail.
i wanna get my drivers license so i can skate wherever i want instead of the same six stair everyday or the same ledge everyday and get kicked out alot cuz they have daycare until 6… i wanna skate good stuff…!!! that means i gotta get good grades… like straight Bs cuz parents suck… yeah… thats a good resolution … i like it…a lot…. imma go night nites now… l8z
My new yrs resolution is to get on ES, i fucked up my accel plus’s today, the whole side is ripped out on both sides lol. deff buyin more…so class! happy new year es! have u got a date for the “yes” vid to be out in europe/united kingdom? cheers….
