Can u bomb in rain?!



Derek posted,

hey yall, i was just wonderin if you can bomb in da rain with no effects to your deck what so ever, ive heard mixed answers, seeing people rain ride and being told that if i do my griptape will peel, my deck will rot, and my bearings will never see the light of day again, so whats the deal?

GO SKATE AND FIND OUT!!!! i skate everyday no matter the weather!! (unless im knee deep in snow) you board SHOULD be fine mine has been for a long time, rayne boards will hold out fine, and landy will too, as for your barings i just skate mine to shit, if they size because of the rusting then just skate them around and they should start working again, i need to do that almost everyday after i get out of school cuz they have been sitting all day with water in them getting all rusty like.
SKATING IN THE RAIN IS LOTS OF FUN GO OUT AND SKATE DONT LET THE WEATHER STOP YOU!!!!!!
SKATE OR DIE!!!!!!

I love the rain riding, huuuge long slides crazy drifts effortlessly, great for someone learning how to control a board in slide or drift since you wont have to go as fast to break the friction barrier
