hahaha...

I bet that shit is maximum security. Rome is a pretty big tourist place I think.... yeah, it is. The first dub kink one with drop is real sick though. The others are just silly.

tons of wax, and youd be fuckin insane to try the first one. thats like a 20ft drop. so easy to catch your edges on ledges and fall on your head

ahahah skiing in rome... you'd def. have to smooth those off reeaaallly good, new marble slides good, but marble thats hundreds of years old... not so much. plus last I checked rome wasn't a very cold place thats accomodating for any snow...

I fell asleep on a marble slate in Rome with a bunch of friends. You know what my wake up call was? A fucking baton to the gut.

Moral: Don't dick around in Rome.

hahaha true say,

also how many ice rinks are in rome? i doubt a lot so snow would be hard to find.

but thatd just make it more rad if someone pulled it off.

looks pretty bad to me, polished would be way better, plus you'd die if you fuck up a little, i'd say no on sliding it, but if you do, thats fucking sick

The ledge that Will Wesson did a while back is a good bit rougher than those. There are tons of cracks, and gaps.

Joke or not, there has got to be a marble flat-top rail somewhere in the world where it snows and I want to see footie of someone greasin it, shit would be crazy, you'd pick up so much speed on cold, smooth marble.

marble is prime for skating but its gotta be new and in good shape to board or ski it and youd def needa wax those puppies and get some snow from somehwere
