    So I'm kind of obsessed with skating again.

    It's like I'm 16, except that I only have about 2 hours per week to actually get out there instead of hours on end everyday after school.

    With the little time that I have, I'm working on my flow in the bowls and transition skating.

    When I was young I was all about making single tricks. I didn't grow up with many skateparks and I couldn't piece together a good line in a park for my life.

    To help me get in the right mindset (or really, just because I wanted to) I put together another set up with some old and new parts:

    9.5" Elephant Street Axe deck, which is totally rad.
    58mm Bones SPF wheels taken off my original setup
    Indy 159s I had laying around in my garage

    The ride is pretty sweet. Good blend of old school meets new school.
