    Skateboarding day is a joke. It's like Father's day and co.
    The best day for skateboarding is today ! Everyday !

    go skateboarding day was kinda beat. went to the brooklyn banks, i was at the top of the 10 stair filmin but no body really landed anythin. billy rohan tore his pants switch heel flipping em n dipped. some kid came rrreal close to fs flippin but didnt get it. some kid bs boardslid it. another kid ollied it n some guy airwalked it i think. i'll have to check the footy. we hit up the china town manny pad, back to the banks n then the TF but they took the grind box n rails out when we got there for some lame ass soft ball game. the Gonz came out n tried fuckin it up haha that was great but idk, its wasnt as energetic as i'd hoped

    Skated the brooklyn banks, houston park, tompkins/autumn skateshop, and over the williamsburg bridge to kcdc skateshop to skate their new miniramp and toss out a few hundred pieces of product.

    No hammers, but who cares.

    Damn...Go Skateboarding Day 2006, there's not much to say about that, it was so great. Had all the Sterling Park skater go up to D.C. and skate all that good stuff. But yeah, `eS you guys should bring the `eS Game Of Skate in VA or something, because over here, nothing exciting happens. Well thanks guys, and you should make some new color ways for the accel and accel plus, I would love that haha. Later
