Obscura Impulse Wakeskate

Hey Guys



During my stay in Florida I have been having a lot of riding time and trying out a new wakeskate. This is a wooden concave wakeskate Danny Hampson pro model 40.5". I really like this skate because it has that skateboard feel to it and it has really good pop and I have even landed a couple new tricks on it within the first few rides.






Its a shame about the weather as its blooming freezing here at the moment and has been really cold since Christmas. Check out the pic, I'm in a psycho 2 wetsuit, but as long as its sunny! :)
I fly home on Saturday when the weather is going to warm up.. but Ill be back out here in March for more shredding.

Skateboarding


Hi Everybody
I am enjoying my time in Florida and doing plenty of wakeskating and skateboard on those cold days. With a little help from my bro, we hit the streets and got some different variations of shots.
Today we went into Orlando as the weather was terrible and I went to the Vans Skatepark for a couple of hours while the rest of the family went shopping. The skatepark is mainly based indoors but has a small outdoor section which was drenched from the rain. Its a good skatepark as it has all different varieties of skateboarding from the vert ramp to the bowl and the street skate section. The park also has a shop inside with all the vans gear you would ever need along with their back wall completely covered in skate decks.

America

Hey Guys


Wishing everyone a late Christmas and New years!




We had a snowy journey to the the airport Christmas morning thinking about the sunshine state, Florida. As we were travelling all day on Christmas day it didn't feel very Christmasy but I was excited about riding in the hot sunshine.


Unfortunately this was not the case with very cold temperatures nearly as cold as England. So it actually feel like WINTER training, ahaa. At least there is calm water and a boat to ski behind.


Ill keep you posted over my time in the States and Happy Holidays!
