Skateboarding. Old style

    Hi guys,

    Long story short. I'm 30 years old. I'm rubbish on a skateboard. Could only really carve around light banks and down slopes. I like to ride around rather then tricks.

    I'm just back in Dublin and used to skate in stockwell skatepark. It's full of nice banks to just carve away.

    Is there any park in Dublin that has an old school set up rather then all these grind rails and half/quarter pipes?

    Jay'sus that's far out. I'm based in South Dublin so those meets are off.

    Pity..

    Bushy looks ideal, so if anyone reads this and wouldn't mind messing around give us a shout.

    I've got a standard deck for theses days. What deck would someone suggest for just bowl riding and carving around a park?

    Deadly video man! Quality stuff. I couldn't skate like that if my life depended on it.... But when I dream, I skate fluid like that. So in a trippy way, the vid is like a strange dream.
