Longboard Review #3 Longboard Larry Komodo
Larry Longboard Komodo:
Length: 47.5 Inches Width: 9.25 Inches Wheelbase: 34 Inches Retail Price (Deck only): $150 Skill Level: intermediate
First off, this board is surprisingly light for its size. My roommate has this board and it is a great board for dancing with just enough length for dancing, allowing for double crosssteps and easy walk the planks. The board also has a nice 9.25 inch...

Length: 41.5 Inches , Width: 8.5 Inches, Wheelbase: 33 Inches Retail Price (deck only): $180 Skill Level: Intermediate

Forgot to post this yesterday, but Last week someone at the gym lost their Ipod in the treadmill and left in defeat. The guy that went on after it found it because it fell out and i’ve been holding it for a few days. I looked up the person’s name in the Ipod and facebooked them and finally gave him back the Ipod yesterday. He was nice enough to bake me cookies (how the hell do people...
Last night Brenton told us about Red Bull’s scavenger hunt around the US. Apparently they put cases of those Red Bull shots around the US and if you type in your zip code, they will tell you where they are around your place and some clues. There were suppose to be 2 at the UV but both of them were already taken. When we got back we played a combination of ASS and the cussing game. Steven...
