Welcome to the forum :)

Cheers dude, just looking at the injuries in the gallery. I'll be buying a lot of safety gear then.
*cough* :Straddle5:
-
welcome, always good to have more people around the london area, hopefully be sorting out more meets etc in the area if i ever get around to it that is
also you seem mighty sensible thinking about pads...even though you get stuff stapled to your back :P but well done for thinking of pads, 2nd most important pieces of kit next to bocks
-
Yeah I hate getting gimped up with injuries, i'll be getting a crash hat, wrist, knee, elbow and back pads.
Besides I think protective gear is cool myself. :rolleyes:
-
..hopefully be sorting out more meets etc in the area if i ever get around to it that is
Please do. I'll be starting alone (unless i can get the missus to join me too) and I'll need tutoring in the way of the Böck!
New years resolutions: Get more tattoos, take up böcking.

Yeah I would have thought there would be meets about's Camden due to the shop that sells circus crap, skate boards, bocks and other such things.

a shop that sells bocks? don't see many of them around, well none with decent prices at least
-
Yeah they sell everything circus / extreme sport. Unicycles, Diablos, Fire breathing kits, Bocks, Skate boards blah blah blah.
Actually Finsbury Park is big and suitable for meets. Even has a skate park in it.

It also has a boating lake, running tack, American football pitch, tennis coarts ,picnic areas and play areas as well as a cafe, dog training facility, art gallery, gardening area, play school and art centre

Is it oddballs? They dont sell bocks. They sell duras and pegs. I went there last weekend! Awesome place :biggrin: :biggrin:
There is a guy in there that has some bocks. I didnt have any info cards Doh.
Is that the whole of the skate park? I cant really see whats there but steps and stuff to jump on to are the best places to go.
Welcome to the forum :)

Yeah it is (there is a little more), it's not actually the skate park I'm thinking of more of the massaive park in general. Can't find any uber snaps of it on google though but I assure you it's great.
The shop in Camden may be oddballs? I've seen Bocks in there in the past but they where mucho expensivo!
Where do you hail from Spud? Suffolk?

Rude Dog dude. Man after my own heart in the music scene, random question but have you ever heard of the London Metal Meetup. It's pretty known nowadays and is run by my bloke (at least it used to be). I could probably arrange popping up and meeting you for a Bock, then sort out a few people coming for drinks at the Big Red (I am sure you know of it) if you fancy mate?
Rock on to the Bizarre stapleling, I am an avid reader myself.

if you are free and have transport
there is a gym meet in gillingham, if you are up for it
4 on the 4th of jan
-
I'm afraid I don't drive due to having superb public transport here. :Straddle5:
-
try and see if you can make it, it would be great to see more new people there
-
I work my magic, see if I can convince him haha.
-Carma
-
Well I'd better get my bocks and learn how to use then before I go swanning off to meets y'know!
-
who ever said that
it is the best way to learn
-
i'll proabbly be making it to that aswell dog, so wouldn;t be the only one from the area, haven't looked at trains that far yet though, but it's only like £20 or so to get to the south coast or over to wales, so shouldn't be too much of a problem if you don't mind 3 hour long train journeys :D
-
Tickts from £15 odd, travel time about 1 hour and 20 mins from Kings Cross.

£8.60 return, from Charing Cross to Gravesend. Toddy usually picks me up there (I do not drive either) so cannot see him having a problem picking up another. Either way, £15 isn't right, it's £8.60 then another £4.50 ish to Gillingham if you went from London to Gravesend, then Gravesend to Gillingham.
Oh, unless you were refering to going to the South Coast or Wales.
I am always going into London, and I have to go to Gillingham to get to work. Oh and it's only 50 mins from Charing Cross to Gravesend
-Carma
-
meh whatever, i was just making the point that it's not that much, payed £27 for a ticket to bournemouth and back, 2.5 hour journey either way this weekend, but yeah would be good to get a few peeps from around london etc down for it, gonna prod the rest of the springers about it when i can

Why would you go South East from kings cross? Kings Cross heads North.

Carma, I don't think that's what he meant as to go to Wales you need Paddington Station (Heading West), and to go South you need Waterloo (Heading South, suprisingly :P)
