I’m 24 living in Santa Monica, I work in music and fashion, but I’m also hoping to get some work in videography and I want a food truck at some point. I like traveling, usually every other weekend I’ll go on a quick trip on one of the <2hr flights to a surrounding city…I think having an electric board is gonna be awesome for traveling, especially while there’s no real verification of battery capacities at airports yet.

found the way @lox897 originally mentioned it to be kinda creepy, but in hindsight it really isn’t that bad. I’ll give him credit for what he tried to start before, and I so unjustly shot down :wink:

so I won’t go into details, but I’m 16 and just spend my money on stupid shit- lets leave it at that.

edit: for those of you who follow me on social media, you may see a 1945 jeep willy’s join my list of DIY fixer upper projects soon if all things go according to plan…

I live in Southern California and operate heavy equipment by day.

Nights and weekends I like to build things in my shop. It used to be motorcycles, but since my sons came along it felt safer to build longboards that go way too fast. Www.psychotiller.com

Lol it was kinda creepy…

I think it was because he’s 13…(no offense @lox897 :facepunch:t2:)

Coming from an adult, initiating the conversation, people feel a bit more comfortable…

@Mobutusan had a good approach (although I mocked him…lol)…and there has been tons of activity on the site the last few weeks…more regulars, hence a larger core of users … And we seem to be interacting a lot…

Anyway…

I’m from Minneapolis, just turned 22 recently and I am a computer tech for a local school district. Live with my GF who is a music teacher. We go camping sometimes, last trip was in early january, the weekend that it got down to -20 something. Went up north to cascade river state park (past lutsen mountain) couldn’t cook our food on our stove or campfire since it was so cold. Went hiking/snowshoeing, wanted to go on the gondola at lutsen but it was too cold and they were not running it. I’m a fairly avid gamer, saving up for a VIVE right now (luckily my computer is already beefy enough that I don’t have to upgrade it). Build stuff in my spare time, decent with MIG welding, beginner with TIG, and a master at soldering :stuck_out_tongue:

Besides all that, I’m a fairly boring :slight_smile:

That’s right dude. I forgot you live in Vegas! Me and my fiancee might be stopping by Vegas to go to Havasu Falls next month. If I have my Raptor by then we can go for a ride together!

I’m sure nothing more would please your fiancé
