Pics in Palm Springs
I am finding skating the new skateparks is quite different than the old says of skating big half pipes. I have really had to adjust and learn to carve different lines. I think these pics are pretty boring, but it was a new park and I was not about to try any tricks. It is my goal in 2008 to post some flips and layback airs. For now, all I have are some lame carving pics, but it is better than nothing and I am still skating.

 Thats pretty cool Robert! Hey, how do you like those gloves? Those may be my next ones. Its funny since you have the same boots and elbow pads and all that I do, its like we're related!

Well, I havent skated sideways yet, but that looks like FUN! I cant wait to see a video of you. :-D

 Claudine, I like the gloves. They do pinch a little bit in between my thumb, but it is barable. They also have a wrist guard on the bottom. I can't remember the price, but pretty affordable. I did buy some PD wrist guards and did not like the fit and how they dug into my hands. There is a flex wristguard out that was designed for snowboarding that looks awesome.

 Joe,

That sounds like a cool site. There are a ton out there. I belong to Old Man Army. The people are extremely cool. I am the only rollerskater on there and they have been very encouraging. As I have said before, it bums me out that the people in this forum are so spread out. I would love to visit Australia, but that is one long and expensive plane ride.
