I was talking the good old skateboarding days with some guys today, and remembering long powerslides when we used to bomb the big hill road into Palm Desert. Just lay that thing back, Guyon!
 
I have a 6 n 2 izulas. I'm sure you will love it. I really wanted a 3, just never warmed up to the handle shape
 
I haven't been able to handle them at all, so I guess I'll find out. It seems like it should make a good EDC blade though.
 
The 3 and 4 are nice edc blades, nice and flat. I positively hate the 5. Haven't played with the 6 or Junglas yet.
 
We're discussing weight? Next we'll be asking about ages... ;)


I'm a sleek ~310 lol OK maybe a sleek ~320.

After my separation last June I dropped from 305 to 275 in about a month...thats what not eating or sleeping does to ya, I felt weak as a cat, not healthy. I do OK as long as I stay under 320...any heavier and my knees complain. I blew a disk in my lower back 2 years ago and during 3 months of doing Nothing I was a porky 380. I'd like to stay at about 290.


Oh and I'm 29, for another month or so anyways

I'm 29 too... I haven't blown any discs in my back, however I have a torn ACL and MCL in my right knee from playing football. Last game I ever played I took a helmet to the side of my knee. It was after that which I blew up.
 
Holy Crap! Tomars changed their Becker page! I was so excited for a minute...they added the zytel, machax, and tweeners to the regular BK&T pages instead of in the New Arrivals page. Was a bummer, I thought they might have actually arrived for a second. but nope, still ''available soon, check back''

not cool tomar....not cool at all, screwin with peoples emotions!

On of my most bitter disappointments....not gettin to play Football. Went to a tiny H.S. no football team, just basketball. I hate basketball. I get so sick of people looking at me and assuming I played basketball cuz of my height.


I think I would have made one hell of a waterboy

I played in 8th-12th grade. Had 2 games left in the season. Had a couple of colleges there watching that last game. I was being all big and bad then BAM... I was done. No more football, ever. I tried playing in pick up games with friends. I can only play for about half the game now and that is IF I am playing with my knee braced up and wrapped. Otherwise it goes all wonky and wobbly.
 
Chameleon, that sucks. Knees are really important, and not being able to use them properly can be real hard. I chopped through my meniscus last year, with an axe :D

In other news, I'm actually starting to plan a USA trip. I don't think I'll have enough money saved up by this summer, so it's probably gonna be 2012. Where I'm going depends on who lets me camp in their yard (or even in the house :D), but it would be awesome to meet Mr. Becker, and Moose, and to see Half Moon Ridge...
