Aagghhh! You just dated yourself. Apparently, nobody calls it an "endo" anymore!
I learned that the hard way when I called it an endo in front of some kids a couple years ago, they all looked at me like WTF is an endo?

Parkour is a good way of describing 3 years of my life, a broken collar bone, 2 sprained wrists, two sprained ankles, a dislocated shoulder, a shattered kneecap, a chipped coccyx, and probably more...

But damn did we get some cool video footage :-)

LOL, yeah I know, but isn't it funny how quickly they gather around when you bust out the old school flatland? I still have my Haro Master with the frame bash guard from when I was 15. Everytime I take it out some kid wants to buy it.
