    well la de da mr.TacT, someones got connections! but of course all my set up is basically second hand from "lil' Gav" as they call him nowadays, the féckers been meaning to be giving me his old bco decks every time he gets a new one of wayne, so he just always has to go and snap them. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,400 ✭✭✭TacT


    Everyone has connections, the thing is, how good are they? ;)

    I grew up skating with Blayney and Wayne, they're close friends of mine, the same way gav is a close friend of yours now. I'll see Gav at the park next week and make sure he keeps some goodies for you :)

    Damn shame we lost Blayney to Spain, I guess he arrived at the stage I'm at now, many years ago -- because he was so closely tied to the Irish skateboarding community -- which decided to throw a hammer at his head for his time/efforts/talent and ideals of fair play, what a pity! And they wonder why he's gone now! :rolleyes:

    People support the hammer throwers these days, oh how times have changed, I must be getting old or something!
