Dude.. I had the same board.My first skateboard was the black knight with clay wheels. Them I got me some Sims. I was really good going down hills and up drive ways and just cruising super fast. I never got into the crazy stuff Tony did but I have mad respect for those dudes. I was watching skim boarders yesterday tearing it up at Aliso. One guy was insane and really good.

My dd skates for fun by our place and is pretty good. We have down hill. I decided to give it a try the other day. Oh man, I was doing great until this little pebble was in my way and I fell off. I was able to find my footing but it freaking scared me. I was super close to falling on my face big time. No more for me coach. Peace bro and I truly hope all is well with you and the familyI used to skate a bit back in the day. Watched all of the bones brigade videos. Probably watched "Animal Chin" 1,000 times. Put it on a few months ago. Still great!!!.
The skill that Tony Hawk and those guys had (and that the current guys have) is ridiculous. I think it is probably the most technical of any sport out there. I could watch that stuff on TV all day.
