I am here for Friends

About Me

My name is Kyle Ryan O'Connor and I am mostly a
skateboarder and I also cook.
I have a beautiful girlfriend named Kari .. and I have a wonderful family.
I am open to new people hangin' out,
mostly at the skate park though and if you come there
then say hi.
I love hangin', skatin', and playing video games.
That's about all the basics.

SURVEY


How long have you been skating for? This is my fifth summer

What are your favorite skateboard wheels? My Darkstar wheels

What are your favorite skateboard trucks? Destructo, why get anything else. Everything else is a P.O.S!

Who do you think made skateboarding what it is today? A skateboard and the will to ride instead of being a douche.

What is your best trick? Hardflip Rock, Hardflip Axle, Fakie FS 50-50 Half Cab Flip out on tranny.

If one word described your skating what would it be? It depends on my mood. I'm the guy there for only a couple hours but still skates more than people who are there for the whole day.

If you made a skateboard company what would you name it? Last Resort because Don and Kathleen deserve more recognition than anyone else for being dedicated to helping the skate community!

What’s the worst thing that has happened to you on a skateboard? Nothing is bad when I’m on my board although I have had to stop skateboarding to go to work,sleep, or school. The only kind of weather that really annoys me is when it is really windy to the point where you go to do an ollie and the board just flys like 20 feet away.

What do you wear when you skate? Depends on the mood and the day. Definitely no pads!

What is the setup your riding right now? Size 8’’ X 32” Zero Rasta Board with Mid Destructos(Black and Silver), 50 mm Darkstar Wheels, Mob Grip, Sector 9, and Bullet Hardware. Not for much longer though. That shit is about to break like a blader under pressure!
