Dec 13, 2017 at 18:00	comment	added	herisson		@EricDuminil: Thanks for the input. I was hoping a skateboarder might have heard of it; the fact that you haven't does put a dent in hypothesis. Surfing seems possible also, but I don't know any more about that than I do about skateboarding. Maybe somebody who surfs will be able to comment about it

"full-pipe roughie" either isn't about skateboarding or was written by someone who doesn't know anything about skateboarding. It sounds more like a surfing term IMHO.
