I got my first skateboard in 1975, a solid oak Super Surfer with clay, loose ball-bearing wheels. Since then I have ridden a lot of crappy back-yard pools and also, some absolute gems that I will never forget. That is Pool skating. It can be extremely immersive: From the commitment it takes to barge the unknown, to the discipline of "the 15 minute rule", and, of course, the unconditional love of hydrodynamics... It is the nature of the quest and the sweet concrete nectar that is the lure and the hook. Adrenalin flows differently in that environment. Your heightened senses bring the details into focus as distinct and vivid memories of that specific time and space consciousness. Familiar objects become relevant, meaningful and tangible reminders of the questionable decisions, and, the inevitable regrets gone unrealized.
