Hello!

Erm, this is like those awkward parties where you have to break the ice cos you don't know anyone. So this blog post won't be all that interesting - mostly just a bit of background that'll end up in the "About me" tab once I get round to filling the blog with content.

I'm Tim or Timmy, and have been longboarding for almost 7 years. I started on Lush Longboards, owned a huge pile of the old style Lush legends before riding a tula solidly for a whole year and a half. I subsequently got an Evo, and destroyed in in just under 12 months of continuous non-stop riding. I replaced it with a dropspeed that's now on it's way out. I currently favour Otang  75mm In Heats (Tim Peters Prize for Best All Round Wheel, 2 years running), purple and green sabre bushings and bears or randals. None of this fancy stuff...yet.

One of my favourite things about my current setup is it's versatility - on slightly worn InHeats and with flippable washers I can commute my board to and from work, loosen up to boardwalk, tighten up to race, just go out and shred on it, and do anything. It's a jack of all trades, but it's fantastic fun no matter what I ride.

I organise lots of stuff as well, go check that out in the tabs once I get round to writing it.

'Til next time,

Timmy
