Utah, huh? Well, Utah should have Home Depot, which is where I got my lino. For me it cost about 25 bucks and iIthink its 6' by 6' or maybe 12, I dunno, but you can get it from Home Depot, or any other home improvement kind of store.

Yes linolium is the best to practice on.and put something soft under it like a carpet so you don't get hurt. You can get it at home depot.

if you can find a shitty mattress somewhere you can use that for suicides and flips and shit...hurts less than lino an cement...but lino is the best and you can probably find it at any hardware store. It shouldn't really make a difference though...my lino rips alot more than my cardboard




Vin Diesel and the Internet - relation? I THINK SO

Vin Diesel invented the internet while trying to steal cable TV.

Contrary to popular belief, it was in fact Vin Diesel who invented the internet. Al Gore stole the designs when Vin fell asleep at his keyboard.

buy lino, but dont buy the really really good ones since they're more expensive. buy from 10-30 bux..

you know those soft yellow thingys that's used in the couch cushion, in car seats and stuff.. yeah.. get those and put it under your linoleum, it makes it even softer for you... you can always use a carpet too

and get a mattress if your going to attempt suicides, backflips and all the moves that you're most likely going to bail in, or you can try them outside on grass

Home Depot or Lowes or some kind of home improvement store should have lino for decent money. I bought a 6 by 6 for like 20 bucks which isnt bad. Cardboard isnt that bad but its not as good as lino, cardboard is just easier to come across. Best thing is both are portable, depending on the size and whatnot but they work.

You have to become a part of the culture to learn the history, tradition and foundations behind it, along with the experiences it brings - Me

"Posers" are the peeps, that personally I think, are those who are talk and no dance. If they can't get down and dirty on the floor like the dirt that flys from their mouth then grill 'em, sizzle fry their ass - Me

put soft shiet under your lino, not too soft, u still want some "hardness" there so that you can do other moves. Linoleum is the way to go
