Full Version: Hello From A Old Fart!
Hello, I haven't used a skateboard since like '92, more into my motorbikes and stuff!! But my 3 yr old daughter ( who I'm sure should be a boy!!) wants to get a skateboard, so i might as well get another one. Currently looking on e-bay for a cheap old one for me or if anyone has one in the hertfordshire area (I'm in hatfield) let me know. Don't want to spend too much as it could just be a passing thing with her. She want's a Dora one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CHILDRENS-MINI-SKATE...1QQcmdZViewItem it'll be crap, but it'll get her started, then I'll get her a decent one if she really shows interest.
I love people who not only take time to write a decent first post, but to pimp out their avatar, signature and profile before even posting.

Cheers, well I reckon I'll spend some time on here once I have ago, cos I was rubbish then, I reckon my daughter will do fine and I'll be breaking bones every five minutes!!

Get the Dora.
Hello, welcome to the forums!
There is a list here of skater owned shops and a few at the bottom are ones that can be found on ebay, you might find a cheap complete for yourself on there. How much was you thinking of spending on yourself?

A guy at work is giving me his old board, it'll be a cheap one, but it'll do for now, then maybe later I'll get a better one. Wish I still had my old vision board with it's slimeball wheels!! That was from my Pioneer club days!! I was crap then as well
