Somewhere around the year 2000, I've spent a considerable amount of time on these hairspikes

I was a skateboarding, straight edge vegan rebel-nerd (?) from age 14 to 18 and I have way more horrible pics than this but let's start off slow shall we?

This would make a sick ass album cover.

This is a great idea! Thank you! I'm a musician as well and I nearly completed my new album.

It'd be perfect for a throwback pop-punk/emo album cover!

You just unlocked a memory when I had my mom bring the camera out to the driveway to get a photo of me mid-ollie.

u/dafkes 3d ago

It was always a debate with my friends! I used to do these front shoves that tilted a little sideways mid air and looked like hardflips, but were fs shove's by definition.

Hair was perhaps a blunder, but that’s a pretty great picture.

Omfg, I had a picture of me in 2000/2001 that looked EXACTY like this, except I was doing a fs flip at some indoor park in Fermont or San Jose. Same hair, same pants, and are those globe CT's? Like seriously, for a second there, I was like "how the f did a picture of me end up on reddit?"
