dont you ever have the urge to skate on the boards you collect?

seems like too much temptation to me, i couldnt do it.

Most had already been skated at one time or another in this lifetime. No urge.
I'm saving them for my reincarnation.

I sometimes feel so close to doing it. Just looking at the board and think about the feel of the ride.

thats how i'd be. anytime i had a board, boom, it was set up and on the street. i loved the board and even the artwork on them, but skating to me has always been about function, not form. i couldnt collect a board without skating it. i had a collection of broken decks...hensley king size (both horn blower AND the eagle) vallely barnyard, two rocco jumbo sizes with winnie the pooh on them, a ken park planets from planet earth, jeff grosso coca cola parody deck... had it all stacked in my closet. thought about using them as wall art, something a local skatepark had done with their broken boards.

I used to think that any used complete that I bought I would skate just to see what the owner felt when he was rideing it. Not only have I never rode any of the complete used setups I have collected by after putting my Ray Bones back together the wheels have never touched the ground.

I know exactly how you feel..now that my deck is all set up I wanna ride it so bad. I'm gonna do it sooner than later, maybe this week. It's hard cause it's such a sweet set up.
