Default Re: skateboarding in the 757

hey guys, I'm from Buffalo, NY about to move to Virginia Beach in 3 weeks. I've skated all my life, had to take a year off with a back injury from hockey but I'm just starting to skate again. I've worked at a shop since I was 15, and my buddy left our shop 3 years ago to start Sunday. Not sure if anyone's heard of it, but one of their riders won Slap's One In A Million last year and is now on real, spitfire, adidas, etc. they've also got guys getting shoes from nike sb & vans, and they were on the cover of sb's website for about a year

What shops are there down there? I'll probably buy an extra deck before I leave here (sunday's shop boards are the same wood as alien workshop and they're only $40). but I always like to check out shops

Are there outdoor parks down there? do you have to wear a helmet (indoor or outdoor)? most of the parks here only require them if you're under 18 (I'm 24).

I actually prefer to skate street. I grew up in a city and never really had the chance to skate transition growing up. If someone could put me on to some spots that would be cool. A good ledge spot is all I need. My friend that I'm moving in with skates as well, I grew up skating with him

nike sb team was in town this past week. pretty cool to go out every night and see brian anderson, omar salazaar, and everyone. koston and janoski were here as well but I did not see them.

anyway I'll be down there soon, hope to do some skating

to be honest vb sucks dick for spots, but since your new here some stuff will be fun, Ive just skated everything so much its boring now.
youll want to go to norfolk and pourtsmouth for some other spots.
there are some parks, trashmore and plaza( just a helmet) are the main ones but theres some out in other regions.
I usually go to richmond or raliegh 2 times a month, spots there are fun.

This week is going to be PERFECT for skating. I've got to see how work looks this week first though.
