Back in the day when I was younger, much thinner/more in shape, and had the time.
I still dress like a (fat) skater.....lulz.
Boards I had: Birdhouse Falcon 3 (timeless classic), a CCS blank and a Birdhouse Team Death Seal.
Between all my setups, I transfered China Bones bearings, Pig Pile risers and Shorty's silverados hardware.......all had Black Magic grip tape, and for a while I was rocking some silver Fury's, and my last setup I had solid black Fury's. I still have my last setup in my closet, though I don't see it coming out any time soon, as I quit skating years ago.
The spots I used to hit on a regular basis were Curtis Park skatepark and Vans (indoor) in Potomac Mills Mall, which was closed down a few years ago. But I was never a big park skater, as I did mostly flat land and oldschool bs. I just hit the parks with friends who were big ramp/rail skaters. I mean I could do the basics on ramps/rails, and could skate a vert pretty decently too, but meh....was just never for me.
Oh how I miss the olden days of cruising in my pristine '88 RX-7 convertible w/ the board in the trunk, en route to the local skatepark (Curtis Park) blasting Cake and S.T.U.N. Ah....the memories.
*Oh, and whats wrong with baggy clothes? I used to wear nothing but girl's clothes.........when I was 150lbs. But now that i'm about 195lbs (or more), i'm sure it would be very pleasant to see me in non-baggy clothes.

I skated from like age 12 until age 19. I got on a board for the first time the other day and SUCKED. I could still do some small stuff, though.
Here's a pic of me from 2-3 years ago...

Not for 20 years now, but I do still own a Powell Peralta t-shirt and hang out with a few skaters.

I stopped skating about 3 years ago. I found my deck when I was moving and brought it with me for the heck of it. Who knows maybe I'll start messing around with it again but I'm more into bike now.

I've been skating on and off for probably 15 years. I haven't picked up my board in over a year since my friends who I used to skate with moved away after college.
