Seriously like every freaking weekend this years its rained and the only skatepark around is outdoor so its always closed...I might as well move to Seatle or London or something ( no offense to anyone from these areas you probably have more indoor parks then me )

Anyway if anyone figures out how to change the weather anytime soon let me know please.

Just weekend?? Dude I'm lucky to get 1 or 2 days out of the week that's skatable, sometimes its just dry and no sun. I need to get my job at BK so I can pay that 4.50 indoor park fee. Shit...I'll just get the year membership thing for 40 bux.

cause the meteorologists hate you.

i live in new england. i'm used to weird weather.

my advice is GET USED TO IT. or bring a space heater with you wherever you go so you can point it at stuff and have the water evaporate

Get those skatepark folk to pitch in and buy a tarp hut or roof or something. If it's a pay-park, convince them that it will keep them rolling in it all the time, rain or shine, or just whip out a deck that you don't need and go a-skating in the rain. When you get lemons, make an acid solution to disolve a base in so you can see a wicked volcanic explosion... I think that's how it goes...

yes rain does suck, i didnt really ever think of how much it messed up my board till it really messed it up. its an old 1980's origional issue powell... and all the layers and laminate are like peeling apart from each other, i think ima hang up the deck on my wall its pretty cool. and then just go to phase2 and buy an old santa cruz and fix the bolt pattern, rain sucks

want me to go into the scientific aspect of why it won't stop raining?

The answer probably lies in the atmospheric pressure of your local area. If a high pressure area slips over a low pressure area, this will cause the charges of each pressured area to start stimulating. This causes the collection of oppositley charged transpired and evaporated water particles. Once the weight of the water can no longer be supported by the cloud, it drops down because our good friend gravity.

Well, i'm not too sure, but i think i just said a bunch of bullshit.
