  • What do YOU do?

    So, as I've read all of these posts over the past three years (January 9 is my three anniversary of skiboarding) I've tried to figure out what everyone is into.

    So, the question is... What are you all into other than skiboarding?
    I'm a snollerblader.

    Go big or go home.

    My wife, two girls and I are all into martial arts. We usually train four nights a week and go to tournaments on the weekends. We travel between Arizona, California and Nevada, anything we can drive to from Phoenix. I'm getting a little older now, so judge more than compete. My girls are into the extreme competitions, so they do the back flips and jump kicks to music.

    It's been a great activity to do as a family, and as a protective Dad, it's nice to know my girls are black belts!
    Just these, nothing else !

        I would love to see some video of the extreme competitions with backflips, intense performance, etc… I always love seeing those scenes in kung fu flicks.

                all things cycling, playing guitar, ukulele, harmonica, reading zines, dumpster diving, art mostly electronic and new media stuff. Some activism, protesting, community building and volunteering, mostly around the Student Movement but also a little bit of Palestinian, pro choice, environmental, anti-capitalist, LGBTQ, food politics and feminist struggles, watching way too many documentaries, traveling on a low budget, hosting traveling couch surfers and being a traveling couch surfer.

                          Any specific color tractors you're into, nudelles? You may be able to guess mine from the avatar ;-)

                          In addition to fixing up/accumulating/restoring old farm equipment, my interests include;

                          Bird hunting, field trials and bird dogs (English Setters).
                          Bass fishing.
                          Restoring and shooting mostly vintage SxS shotguns and single-shot rifles.
                          Bluegrass and old-time country music, a little banjo picking.
                          Metalworking, welding, and general shop tinkering.

                          For me, the snowsport interest is a relatively new thing.
