does that make it cheaper cause we only skate mini-ramp?
aww well, too bad, hopefully will be good by saturday or friday :P
wil dat be cheapr
yeah itll be cheaper, 1 dowlarr
Something less slippery? :P
wat kinda floor?
lucky its next week, not during the march holidays, otherwise that would really suck big time
ya gary
local schools hols start 15 ( mon) till sun.
1) price will be the same, cos we need money esp since re-doing it cost 10k :(
2) floor will probably be pretty slippery still but lots of people like it that way, cos sliding is fun. if you need more grip buy some autobahn dual duros which have 97a urethane on the outside :)
then why need to re do the floor?slippery floor makes it harder to skate
there are tons of cracks that are kinda sharp & dangerous and i cant keep fixing them there are too many.
Make griptape flooring. No one will complain about slipperiness anymore.
you guys should feature this

some local skate photographer.
feroze is inside.
yes thats our good friend juffrie hes GOOD
Nooooooooooooo will it still be the same floor
Gary,will park be fully operational on Friday???
Hey Gary while your doing that you should make teh vert
rAmp wider
i dont know if we will run into any unforseen problems so i cant say for sure if the park will be fully armed and operational on friday. just check the site for news.
the vert wallride thing is a big problem cos the floor is gonna be raised about 35mm, we arent quite sure yet how we are gonna get it aligned with the bottom of the wallride. disassembling the wallride and raising the whole thing is gonna be… difficult & expensive so we don’t wanna do that if we can work around it.
as for widening the wallride we dont wanna do that cos we will get people coming down from it really fast near the shop corner, which has a high potential for bad collisions.

gary did u see this? is on webleedwood
some demo thingy for DC coming Sg 13 march
yes we know about that but we are not involved and its not a skateboarding demo or anything its just the launch of the sbtg/royalefam collab with DC. i think Gallery (at far east plaza and pacific plaza) will be taking care of this, and you should be able to get the shoes from them. the first release is based on “The Fly” which actually refers to Lucas, the guy who owns Gallery.
eh what if i use a size 11 on a 7.75 would that be too small?
im thinking of trying a 8″ but im scared its too big,
any size 11 shoe users using an 8″ deck out there?
deck size is personal preference and it doesnt have anything to do with your foot size. i can tell you that the entire LSP team rides 8″ and above, and they all have different shoe sizes.
the trend in skateboarding in general right now is also going to bigger decks. I can see this happening by the deck sizes that companies are selling now, theres very few 7.5″ being sold and theres tons of 8″ and above.
my personal preferance = the minimum width i like to skate with is 7.75″, and i just went from 7.75″ to 8.25″ cos theres tons of them lol. I don’t skate any better or worse but its nice having more space to place your feet on.
You could angle teh tiles ner teh vert ramp
Hey Gary will you upload the pictures of the new LSP floor?
My feet is size 11-12 i ride size 8-8.35! its fine! :))
eh gary make shop decks with uber steep concave!
more concave doesnt mean more flip.
i heard that if its less concave the flip is better.
I sugested makin teh vert ramp slightly
wider coz i once kinda fell of it
ya i agree with bomb the vert wall should be wider cos some times i slip of off the top and it fricken hurts!

Garry i found it… i found why you made LSP
check it out LOVE PARK!
haha, actually its preference. but some people say if the concave at the both ends are flatter, the board pops faster
the pop is directly relative to the amount of redbull you consume prior to skating so
1 can = good pop
2 cans = great pop
3 cans = you need to skate outdoors because you may actually hit the ceiling inside LSP indoor area.. lol
heard that if you have concave in your head you can pop to heaven. i also heard that seb loves gary. it says so on his griptape.
is it done on the 7th ?????
It says 8-11
hey gary does this mean that i cant come to lsp and skate on thursday?
you need to do regular vid updates.
yea i want to but i just dont have the time, im thinking of closing every monday so i have some time to make videos
make videos and get some sleep !!!!
No gary! Dont close on Mondays! That is the only day during the school week that i can come to LSP!!! :( it sux i know but pls dont close on mondays!
and not on wednes days
close when you feel, you need a break.
WE WANT MORE UPDATES!!!! gARY WHAT THE FUCK STOP POSTING GAY SHIT BOUT YO LIFE AND UPLOAD SOME VIDS FROM SINGAPORE SKATERS!!! 10 TRICKS, STEP INTO EUROPE THAT SHITS COOL.
COMMON MAN.
oh and Bomb is right, get that wall ride bigger man, common
faggot
Ya i agree with Gaute you need some time off work.
Go long boarding or some thing with the crew…
try doing somr thing other than work all the time.
Can I still buy things from the store? :]
yo gary..will the andy warhol X AWS decks be coming in any soon? will all 10 models be in? will it be slightly expensive?
BTW imo, gary has all the right to have a break and chill. he sacrificed his LIFE for LSP to happen. Kudos to Gary..mad respect for you
yes store is still open, only the street area is closed.
the shipment of aws and habitat (incl warhol decks and hbt shoes) should be in tomorrow. (thought they would be in today but hmm…)
the warhols cost slightly more but we will keep it at the same price, $90 without grip. If you wanna buy the whole set it’ll be cheaper and you’ll get the collector’s packaging. I haven’t seen what it looks like yet but it should be sweet.
We will also retire some current decks to a discount pile at $75 once the new stuff is in. we got a ton of 8″ and above decks tho, please buy those i mean you guys got to keep up with the trends yo. big decks are in no kidding!
Hey Gary it’s way more dangerous if teh vert ramp isn’t that wide compared to it being close to teh shop cause you can fallof the vert wall right now
Guys, every who is complaining, if you wanna pay for the vert wall, then you pay for it. if you want updates, give him time. He’s probably living a damn stressful life.
asking for things is easy especially if the 5 figures ain’t coming out from your pockets!
Cool anonymous is right, put up or shut up.
Pool your money and see if you can swing the cash to get that vert wider.
Half the guys do not know what Gary is going through to give you guys the best that he can so give Gary a break.
Things will happen when it happens.
Meanwhile help yourself by helping Gary and just buy his gear so that he can stay open and maybe make money.
sorry i just learnt that the aws and habitat shipment will not be in today either, might be wed or thursday.
ok about the vert ramp ill get a quote on how much its gonna cost cos i think we will have to lift the entire thing to the new floor surface level anyway
sorry man, you do need to relax and i guess i culd live without mondays =S yur choice anyway, take a break sumtime tho, yu shuld chill a bit like walrus…. just not as much ;)
