I got my first real non dept store skateboard when I was 12 it was a mark gonzales from vision skateboards, here are some pics found on the net of some of the skateboard decks I owned which had either independent trucks or venture trucks and all types of wheels. I took it pretty seriously until right before I was 15, and at that point I skated here and there, I still have my old skool Mike Vallely and I can still bust a kick flip and ollie higher than the average bear.
I remember me and my friends used to call mail order skateboard shops in thrasher magazine and prank them by going through the motions of ordering schmitt stix saw blades wheels while sounding like bill and ted’s excellent adventure!
I hope this year some good things happen, especially benefiting the whole planet not just me. I hope a free energy machine gets put on the production line, maybe some improved electric cars come out early, I hope cures for diseases come out instead of mad scientists inventing them for war, I hope love and peace succeeds because it is still failing, I also hope people just are more happy in general and more big history is made this year with new faces and ideas. Happy new year.
If your here for the first time and reading this, RenatoMusic.com is basically a site of archives of all the stuff I did as far as me being a musician and much of the stuff I collected along the way. I decided to rebuild RenatoMusic.com from scratch, after it was hacked into along with my other sites I decided to scrap it all and start over, I am adding little by little at a time, so you can check up on it to see what’s been added.
It’s hard to believe its 14 years later and I have 4 kids, the kids have watched it and they think its a trip and they are glad I made it, it sparks good family conversation and this video reminds me of who I am and who I was and why.
The basic flow of it is as follows:
Starts out with compressed air which charges multiple crank-up motors that toggle when they discharge, spinning an electric motor that outputs electricity and charges a UPS (universal power supply) or whatever, and can be retrofitted with existing technology such as wind and solar power, mainly for filling the air compressor.
The other idea is cars that charge themselves while in motion, collecting or harnessing energy from the spinning wheels and the wind.
me and my kid rollin on the bike trail, by my house in NJ called the henry hudson bike trail that used to be a railroad line, its cool, its one of those things you can still do for free these days. here is a link to the map:
