>>264148Ok
I just realized that the old cliche that people repeat when you break boards i.e. "just land bolts" is even dumber than I thought. Landing with your feet directly over the wheels actually puts you slightly off balance compared to being more "in the pocket." If you watch pros land stuff, their feet aren't generally directly over the bolts. The back foot at least is generally a little bit further back because this actually makes for more solid balance when landing compared to having your feet closer together.
>>264158Nah bro landing bolts is the best
cop or drop>>264158lose weight
>>264159>>264166Your retorts are not substantive enough to dissuade my opinion in the slightest.
>>264158wrong + fat + land bolts
>>264168Believe it or not, despite that eloquently constructed reply, you've not convinced me that I'm incorrect
Guys, think about it for two seconds rather than just repeating what you've heard someone else say.Stand up where you are with your feet about 14 inches apart. Do some squats, as low as you can. Now, shift your feet closer together, say 9 inches apart and try again. Ok, next, shift your feet further apart, say 16-18 inches, slightly wider than shoulder width. How steady do you feel? Try some squats again. Are they harder or easier than they were with your feet at at the less wide positions? How does your balance feel? The average shoulder width for men is 16 to 18 inches. The average wheelbase for a skateboard is 14.25 inches. The nose and tail are slanted, which makes standing on them less steady, but the area just before the kicks is flat, lacking even the concave introduced at the bolt area. This makes it the most ideal spot for stability. For most people, this will also roughly coincide with shoulder-width stance, which is also ideal for stability. This is why, particularly on high-impact tricks, you will see pros landing with their feet more towards the outside of the bolts rather than toward the inside. To have the feet directly over the bolts would decrease stability. Now, who wants to predict how well-thought-out and convincing the dissenting replies to this post will be? I predict they'll be so erudite that they'll make me rethink my whole theory and probably my whole life, but who really knows?
>>264170>2 sentences instead of a simple 'inb4'Yes, who could predict that no one will want to seriously engage with an autistic underageb&? Here, this guide is the perfect start for you. With that kind of spacing, I also recommend you go to r/newskaters (and stay there). Inb4 verbose reply.
>>264171>who could predict that no one will want to seriously engageWho could predict that everyone too stupid to seriously engage will claim>oh I could I just don't want to as if that's not the most transparent shit ever. Just randomly surfing youtube and clicked on this week's quartersnacks top ten. Take a look.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRL5xFvW8M8Where is Bannerot's foot on the landing? Where's Munro's feet on landing? Where are Miles Silvas' feet on his landing? Particularly on a trick where he's landing backside, fast and with impact so he needs extra stability? It looks a little to me like he has his foot on the tail? But that couldn't be. I must be seeing things. Maybe Miles Silvas didn't read your beautiful info-graphic for some reason and has just been doing it wrong this whole time?
Inseam length matters, folks.
>>264174oh ok, thanks retard
You see, shoulder width matters therefore gender matters.
264142Stay gone
>>264166Cop
>see a guy with a buzzcut in black clothes skating>me: is that mason silva?every time
>>264178Nah I'll probably come back when all the trannys quit
You can land on your tail if you like but once you go through a few boards im sure you'll stop..
>>264166Niggas really considering buying that lol
>>264177anyone taller than 6'1 here riding a short wb?
>>264188the lowest of the low are in these threads, which I guess makes sense
>>264193I'm 6'3 and my current board is 14.625, doubt i could do much larger

When's the last time you got absolutely stoked
>>264172So basically this confirms that most of the time when pros end up snapping their board and ruining their ACL etc., they're not really landing incorrectly, they're landing correctly and getting fucked over by poorly constructed boards. But no one wants to talk about that
>>264204Accidently 5/0 the deep end of the pool

>>264210Since they never said I'd say the most likely scenario is overdose or something like that.
>>264210facebook post by his gf/wife/whatever made it sound pretty definitively like suicide
>>264184I've been buying flight decks and haven't snapped one in years. I can land more towards the tail and have more balance than if I was forced to land on the bolts.
>>264214I don't know about that. She implies he had mental problems and substance abuse issues, but also that she's happy that he's "free now" or whatever. That's not really the right thing to say when someone offs themselves. I think if someone kills themselves you come out and say it, but if its drugs you don't wanna say it (like Phelper)

>>264262I never understood the appeal of the 8.5 and up craze, but I do skate pretty tech. Making the board harder to flip is so un-fun for me.
>>264272I go with 8.25, 8.38, or 8.5. I tried 8.6, but it completely ruined my treflips while I was skating it
>>264271My friend did 7 700s off the basic ass Quarter to Pipe, fucking spinning like sonic the hedgehog, really crazy cartoon shit, landed fakie bolts as well.

Jamie Foy Epicly Later’dhttps://youtu.be/bB5U9T9KZC8?is=X4SUum0gW-Ik4PBV
>>264348poser
>>264348Are you posting it again with an image to drum up more discussion? I thought it was a great episode. I'm not a huge Foy fan, but he seems like a genuinely good dude. He is also one of the best skaters alive currently. Its funny seeing them talk about how he only eats fast food garbage and then goes and does the most insane shit. He has a crazy body type. Short but really husky. I wonder if that diet will come up to bite him when he hits 30.
>>264352>He has a crazy body typeshort and fat is crazy now?
>>264352he is 30 and hes goated in the sauce like his chic fil a nuggies 12ct large fries extra cripsy bitch
>>264354Crazy for being as good as he is at skateboarding. Like he isn't just fat, he carries his weight well. He has a wrestler build>>264355damn, hes already 30? I thought he was younger
>>264352I'm 35 and eat like complete shit and I'm only a little fat
>>264357Once I hit 28 I had to start moderating how much garbage I ate. Otherwise I would feel like total shit on my board.
Kind of weird Foy is regarded so highly when he doesn't really flip his board. Part of me thinks that disqualifies him from being great but he also is pretty good so idk..
>>264359He's no slouch at flips. He has really good heelflips. Rail skills overshadow the rest of his kit though
>>264359Today's skaters can't hold a candle to late 90s-early 2000s skaters. 15 year old me would be a pro if he was transported to 2026
>>264359>kickflip front crooks massive handrail>heelflip back tails massive hubba>nollie heelflips massive stairsetyeah anon, real weird
>>264361Delusional. That era had tons of rail chompers too, and none of them were doing shit like Foy does.
>>264360>He has really good heelflipsThey're decent.. but seems I am supposed to be hype when he does one on a funbox?>>264361https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QpnpIy5TrI

>>264362>>264365>huckingyeh no denial he has that down
Oh, its just this sperg again
>>264367That wasn't me but maybe I'll start calling him Jamie Huckfoypuff
brehhttps://youtube.com/shorts/bQeEptZgzpA
>>264369>They're decent.. but seems I am supposed to be hype when he does one on a pimple?
>>264311Kickflips are pretty independent of actually being good at SKATING.
>>264348This was great. Super interesting to see him skating as a little kid and then flow and then compare to now. It's a trip to see this kid in diapers pushing around, and then this little Chunk from goonies doing flip tricks into rails, and then seeing how he took it even that much further once he grew up. Like Beagle said, you can really see that he applied himself. I don't think it's "natural," I think you can see in his progression that he really worked for it hard as fuck. The part about just eating chick-fil-a all the time and no vegetables, ribbing Reynolds, was hilarious too. I'm in my 30s now and have learned I can't get away with eating bullshit anymore. I'll be interested to see how it goes with him, lol
>>264371>guy who has never kickflipped once in his life
>>264369https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ZHXnP4g2uEQcheck shit on
>>264364Is this video supposed to be impressive? lol
>>264376ur such a dumb faggot
>>264377Its mid, I fear
>>264377NTA but that definitely looks like mid skating by modern standards. Nice style but not that hard of tricks. Trickflation is real
>>264376just showing guys have been flip tricking fun boxes for over a quarter century
>>264380Wow, how informative. Brazilian manlets were doing basic tricks in the 2000s? Who knew?
>>264374Let's see you do a backside powerslide on some tricky terrain at high speed instead. That matters more when it comes to actually looking good on your board then doing a kickflip.
Jamie foy epicly laterd was boring. He's just a normal kid, there wasn't any spice
I remember when the most you knew about a skater was...??? Total industry death btw.
>>264385The industry will never fully die there will be random companies still floating around. I think when thrasher dies that will be the biggest hit
Yeah I realized about halfway through that "epically later'd" that Jamie has nothing to share, no experience or thoughts on anything because he's never done anything else. Guy has just skated for his entire life. The second most interesting thing about him is something you could tell just by looking at him, "oh, hes fat." Not the kind of guy I want to watch a documentary about.
>>264396He bought a hellcat so he's based atleast
Can I buy like 3 shop decks and have two spares just in my room or could humidity somehow get to them still?
Jamie foy seems like the type of dude to buy those kool aid pineapples
>>264401do you live in a mud hut in the tropics?
>>264396>Guy has just skated for his entire life.>Not the kind of guy I want to watch a documentary about.Uh... unless there's the chance that you're interested in, oh I don't know, skateboarding? But I guess that wasn't likely around here

>>264374>guy who can't noseblunt or smith grind
>>264383lol if this is that autist making fun of my still... you are just making yourself look dumb. what you said there is unironically true. I'm still right
>>264406Most people watch Epicly Later'd videos to see how someone got to where they are and all the hiccups they faced along the way. Reynolds and Ellington, for example, were human disasters for the longest time before getting their shit together and the twists and turns of that is more interesting than "he never did anything other than skate and he was always good at it and also he's not secretly a dickhead."The guy's great at what he does and it is nice to see someone who didn't end up lost in party mode along the way, but it doesn't make for captivating storytelling. Give me an episode about Gator or something.
>>264361No you wouldn't cause you have to style bitch
>>264414assume they'll be medium and adjust as necessary. people get all kinds of tweaky with their setups

>>264447Someone should bring these back. Put the wax industry out of business

>>264453Wait.. I think it was krux
>>264453Krux

>Skated Indys my entire life>Bought a pair of Ventures and everything about them is betterIs Independent still in business solely because of retards like me who just keep mindlessly purchasing the thing they're familiar with?God damn, when I say everything, I mean everything. Less wheel bite even with looser trucks, a better designed hanger that doesn't jut out far past the baseplate, considerably lighter, and less expensive.
>>264467>Less wheel bite even with looser trucksWhich means it has a longer turning radius?
>>264467ventures mog. i just hate the kingpin clearance on lo's
Ventures also look the best and have the best logo
>>264468No, they turn better because their geometry affords them more lateral movement within the same range of vertical motion.
I've tried every truck brand. Always go back to standard Indys. They just werk

>>264723>"flip tricks are overrated anon" will still beat ur ass in a game of skate firstThe guy that compares hard triple flips to kendama and yoyo? He has no concept of the difficulty, like he's never flipped a board in his life.
>>264757I do have a concept of the difficulty. Looks like you have no concept of the difficulty of kendama and yoyo tricks.
>>264759https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXzSfy-R5T0for example this kid prob put in a lot more work than gaymie gryfindor. I can't believe you would disrespect the yo yo like this. It's obviously the superior skill toy when it comes to pure tricking.
>>264760Fag
>>264761I'd rather be gay than watch skill toy tricks. Imagine being into skateboarding for the most lame small aspect of it. At least fags have taste
>>264759Maybe you should pick either of them up, being a fatass that can't jump isn't a barrier there.
>>264763Are you retarded? If i don't like Gaymie Griffin why would I want to pick up a skill toy? Even if you were fat and couldn't jump you could street skate like that fatass in the lance mountain/neil blender part in ban this. https://youtu.be/Q1xLw0MuMbw?t=213a better street skater than gaymie griffin will ever dream to be.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQT7nI_CPOQHeres another great fat skater of more recent times. Blows Gaymie Griffin away. True /esg/ skaters will appreciate this. None of that autistic Gaymie Griffin shit

>>264731Someone like you should write a tour guide to India for people who don't like Indians.
https://youtu.be/xnXOaB-SInk?t=161Great post modern take on flip trip faggotry by a slavic genius
>>264776A lot of the areas outside of the city hellholes are beautiful and great to visit. I know IDF chads love to visit the mountainous areas after they are done serving.
>>264778>jeets in the streets and jews in the treesIt seems every day I learn of new subcontinental horrors.
>gaymie gryfindorI THOUGHT THIS UNFUNNY RETARDED FAGGOT SAID HE WAS GOING TO REDDIT WHY HE IS STILL HERE BEING AN INSUFFERABLE UNFUNNY FAGGOT?!
>>264781I'm the one posting good interesting skate content. If anything I'm saving /esg/ and attempting to bring it up to par to reddit
>>264770holding onto the board and pushing on the ledge with your other hand? HOLY GAY!
Watch out everybody monkey jo is coming through hot
>QTP2T starts coming to the skatepark>Make small talk with her>Find out she's 19, and not TransDo I go for it? I'm 36.
>>264793Your too old to be asking advice on what to do with bitches
>>264794It's a cruel messed up world today, I don't want to get cancelled.
>>264798normie
>>264789>>264792Idc im sick and im not gonna make autistic greentext arguments trying to prove you guys wrong. I'm not an insecure loser like that other guy who is so deeply offended by people thinking gaymie gryffindor is gay
>>264770BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>264764>>264766>>264768Anyway I'd like to hear more of your guys responses to these parts. That fat skater in the lance mountain/neil blender part and baka caleb are the epitome of what an /esg/ skater should be. Let me hear all you're terrible takes on these videos and get a good laugh at you posers.
Palace vid is pretty gayNothing is cool anymore
>>264823everythings been gay since like 1992 man. anything cool done in skateboarding was done before that
All the best skate videos came out in the 2000s
>>264764Lance is a legend. This type of skating is cool for the time period I guess>>264766>>264768fat slobs doing non tricks
>>264823I've never liked how they edit their shit and the music choices are consistently bad in my opinion. Last video they had Shawn Powers, who shouldn't be sponsored at all because he sucks, skating to fucking Radiohead. They also all wear performative clothing that looks retarded>Nothing is cool anymoreJust gotta know what you like. I really enjoyed the last Sour video and the Quasi video
Whatever happened to gutdad?
>>264834i like SP but the song was retarded
>>264770
>>264851tom green shreds
>>264605theyre good, really fucking tall tho i had to change my bushings. i think theyre like 55m?
>>264718i have a name
>>264853https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KC6I6d4_6pQSlowly and steadily. Knee slide practice soon, hopefully.
>>264860What's with old people and wearing every piece of protection? I'm in my 30s and still don't feel the need to wear anything.
>>264861lance said you can wear pads after 40
how good do those plastic/fibreglass parking stops slide? never seen one in person to try, but I can buy one online pretty cheap. and would be a lot easier to move than a concrete one
>>264861>slip, fall, blow out knee at 19eh, sleep it off. you'll be fine in a month>slip, fall, blow out knee at 39lucky if you'll ever walk right again, let alone skate
>>264865Take it easy Grandpa Simpson. 39 is not 69.
I finally grew the brain to try and noseslilde some metal sitting benches at the curb spot. Only really slid one and came out perpendicular, but I feel nice about myself.>>264859Forget them.
>>264861I started noticing my skin healing slow down in my mid 20s and it's inconvenient to bleed all over everything when you knock open a giant scab that hasn't gone away yet. Joint injuries are slower to heal than flesh wounds and more seriously impact your day-to-day function. Now that I'm in my mid 30s I can feel some old injuries starting to nag me again. I was talking to a guy in his mid 60s a few years back who had a nasty hip/back injury in his 20s that only started bothering him again in his late 50s with pain worse than "nagging." This shit can be cumulative and it's good to get ahead of it as young as possible.
>>264874If you're constantly falling on your knees and elbows you should seriously consider stop doing whatever it is you're doing. Protection is for vert and for idiots that don't get you can't pad yourself against a full body slam, either your learn how to roll or you learn to take it.>>264861Those dudes were around when all they skated were backyard ramps made with leftover wood, it's just how they roll.
>>264880>constantlyIt's not about the frequency of injury, it's about the level of inconvenience it causes in the rest of my life if it happens relative to the negligible effort it takes to wear some protective gear.
Take your vitamin c old fucks, you can tolerate grams of it.
Can confirm shit hurts at 35
I've taken a few falls since getting back into it as an old fuck and I've handled them well.I'm worried all the fall advice and techniques can't be applied, it's more up to chance whether you do them, because it happens way too fast to consciously react.
>>264896>it happens way too fast to consciously reactYou can train your response to falling, it's why judoka spend so much time drilling breakfalls.
>>264886stem cells bro
>>264898Nigga I'm on Medicaid
>>264896stress training (ie just skate)
>>264896a bail is when you save yourself. a slam is when u get fucked. u can get better at bailing and not getting hurt more often instead of slamming all the time, but yea slams will still happen sometimes
>>264898That's what Danny way did, did u guys know some fag died cause he sexually assaulted Danny and his buddy stomped him
>>264896at least on tranny, you should just practice bailing the same way youd practice a trick
>>264898you must be 18 to post here
oldbros we need blood boys
>>264914Who the fuck under 18 knows about stem cells
>>264916He probably heard Joe Rogan say it once and assumed everyone can just go grab some stem cells from the grocery store.
>>264926yes you can
>>264902Fasting is free.
In thinking bout that ozempic, I feel like bam
>>264951>>264932
>>264951speed and weight anon, speed and weight
>>264861Every fall hits harder and takes longer to heal as you get older, it's just part of the aging process. Also, I think a lot of older guys just have more responsibilities in life - an actual career, children and a family, etc. It's fine to be out of commission for a month when you're 20 and in college, but for a lot of other people, you and your family are absolutely FUCKED if that happens.
wait holy shit he's actually /ourguy/
They don't know I skate
>>264984how i feel when i look rly cute
>>264985Dat boi handsome

Omg I come from slap and this thread is so problematic. Kill yourselves chuds
>>265054im trying
skatemilfs are like the ninetails of boymoms
I fucking HATE skate nerds, man.
>>265073Self hate, you nerd
>>265023vast majority of skate teams don't make their own boards, they buy from BBS/PSStix/DSM and print their own graphics on. BBS and PSS are the good, it's mostly a matter of taste on which you prefer, and really only Dwindle-owned companies use DSM.
tonight i skated a hip in the dark because a bunch of dudes used it to drop in on a manny pad for an hour until the lights turnt off and i was too scared to ask them to move. im such a faggot

Do skateboard parts go on sale come fall and winter? I want a whole new setup but I don't want to spend $350
>>265154how are you hitting $350? are you falling for all the marketing schemes and buying ceramic bearings and flight decks and shit like that?
>>265155nah, it's Canadian prices. If you're American just subtract like $100-150 off. So like $200 for a whole new board.
>>265156my condolences. stuff goes on sale during the usual seasons, black friday, etc.
>>265156you make $40 an hour and own a house
I found brand name decks on Amazon, what are the chances they're fake?
>>265194Check the seller, some companies sell on amazon
Going to Chicago next week anybody wanna shlink up?

Polar vibeohttps://youtu.be/4IrtCWamiLY?is=J2NU7pTsSBKBaKV6Start new bread
>>265254skaters dress like shit
>>265265Post a fit
Are they any east coast brands still around that I can buy from? Always been a fan of east coast skating.
>>265273what are you like 55
>>265274California is gay.
>>265273quasi
everyone in the new polar video sucks except for emile. The problem with skating is that people are raped into skating and dressing in a cool, calculated, proper way and it just sucks. Skaters are by very necessity freaks and not normal, no matter how cool and chad they try to seem. They should act accordingly. They should be a lot more crazy.
>>265254What the hell are those song choices?
What would it take to convince you to quit skating?
>>265285a girlfriend
>>265285trust me, its worth quitting skating for any reason.
>>265281how original
>>265281>except for emilehe skates like a crackhead which is cool but he also kinda sucks
>>265254this was so fucking boring
>>265297I just skim through videos these days
>>265254video was sick if you actually skate
>>265281this better not be you >>264770
>>265279cringe tryhard literal ohio brand
>>265327Name one cool brand
>>265329none. skateboarding is a corny olympic sport dominated by giant corporations and skaters form their opinions from youtubers. just dont pick quasi. they're faggots
>>265289yeah, I know
>>265334So why do you do it then
>>265304it's not. I wouldn't bother watching the thing. I just watch 80s skating ;)
>>265273politic & 5boro. halloween stickers skateboards is all east coast guys as well i think
>>265337the act of skateboarding is still fun
traffic skateboards isnt bad, theories of atlantis related brands, anything that has to do with bobby puleo
>>265334Why not quasi?
>>265338>it's not>there's a (You) as big as your forehead next to the reply
Anyone remember Silver Trucks? Are they still around?I bought a pair way bad when they still had the axle protectors, and the axle bent the very first time I skated them, so I tried to warranty them and the replacements came with the axles already bent.
>>264968I play strictly Brian cause I'm autistic but I would play bob now if he was free
>>265397holy shit you are a retard. There is only a (You) on one of the replies. He's asking ME ( THE YOU) If Im the post that is not the YOU... Go watch your youtube skaters, 4chan is too complicated for you
Fucking hell, tailslides to fakie are so difficult. I think that all tailslides should be to fakie and all noseslides to regular, but I can't fucking turn after I stick the tail. I have to commit both lower and upper body to the 90 turn, but when I do it I can't exit to fakie and I already have enough trouble slipping with minimal speed from tailslides
ITT there are some of the dumbrest human beings alive on planet earth
>>265434nice!
>>265434I have a PhD
>>265434That's cool. You're free to parttake in a longboarding community. They tend to be more accepting of autism.
>>265434my iq is quite high you faggot
>>265447Do you wear a helmet when you skate?
>>265455No

If I buy these does anyone know if I can get rid of the Koston logo, is it just a sticker?
>>265535probably have to scratch it off
>>265535Acetone and a rag
>>265434>dumbrestwell these threads are 35+++ year old burnt out fried losers pretending they weren't always losers and literal trannies. what did you expect
>>265541So your cool?
>>265545nah definitely not and i don't pretend otherwise . im just an permavirg sperg
>>265546Seems like a lot of projection then
>>265546Go buy pussy
My friend's bf gave me a skateboard with trucks that look... alieny. LOLKinda reluctant to go out in public with it.
>>265556HAHAHA LOL THAT IS SO CRAZY HAHAHA
So is nobody going to reply to my.post about tailslides to fakie?
>>265560You seem miserable.
>>265566can't help you bro, I'm just not made for tailslides, can't make it happen. I love noseslides to fakie though
>>265556Kreeper trucks? You can sell them for like 100 on ebay
>>265556how big is your dick
>>265570noseslide to fakies are for noobs lol.t hats the whole point of his post
>>265539I'll try that, would I need to add clear coat after you think or nah?
>>265583Nah why would you
>>265593It'll probably remove the polish make it raw and easier to rust
>>265597Are you fucking retarded?
>>265600I just broke this bitch. The rumors are true, can i get a new one on lifetime warranty? Tensor is not even a brand anymore. Indies had this warranty.

>>265618Wouldn't he have to weld in a new kingpin if he bought it separate? Sounds like a right pita
>>265541and guess who the only clip posters are,,
is 230lbs too big to skateboard?
>>265628YNs be 400+ skating better than I ever did
>>265626I've posted my clips from 15 years ago
Phillips or Allen?
>>265631Phillips I'm so stoked for tomorrow bout to go on a vacation bros
>>265570Thanks for replying anyway. I'm just going to keep at it.
>>265618>Just buy a kingpin for $2 ?On tensors the kingpin is not removabe.
>>265656Every kingpin is removable. Tensor used pressed in splined kingpins, just knock it out with a hammer and a punch.
>>264158If that can make you feel better, i land most of my tricks on the bolts and i still snap boards regardless.2 weeks ago i set a new board, had a flatground sesh and snapped my tail landing a kickflip.If you get a bad apple, this shit is bound to happen(Girl/Chocolate decks back when it was Chinese Maple was the worst offender in that regard). Wood isn't indestructible.
>>265659I've seen tutorials saying to expand the baseplate by heating it, but wouldn't that also inversely shrink the kingpin hole? Shouldn't we do the opposite?
>>265414No idea but had 2 pairs and ended up breaking the kingpin on both of them. The shocker? It wasn't even from skaying big gaps.I went back to Indys and never looked back.
>>265666>i land most of my tricks on the bolts>snapped my tail landing a kickflip.clearly not landing bolts then
>>265667A simple scientific explanation https://youtube.com/shorts/fkYaAdxXARQ?si=EwJD8MKISLdV1hhU
If the 32" penny board came in different sizes I'd totally get one.There are so many penny board knockoffs, how hasn't anyone thought to make a cheap popsicle shape plastic board.
Someone make a new thread senpai
brehs what is the best hour to skate if I want to be unseen like a disgusting leper?I'm an old bitch and don't want to embarrass myself eating shit practicing ollies
>>2656945 to 6 am.
I'm lit
>>265678Ah, makes sense. I already knew some bearings were manufactured with the outer ring heated to fit in the rolling elements. I think I was thrown off not imagining the low temp piston slap effect as the result of the pistons changing more than the engine block.
>>265685Probably because they break a lot easier.
There's more skaters in Chicago than any other city I've been to
>>26569410 pm to 6 am tbqh though no one even shows up to the skatepark until like 11
Being Canadian sucks, is skateboard prices in America also outrageous?
>>265713Ended up finding a better tool, but I might just wait for Fall/Winter and hopefully get shit on discount
>>265713I'm sure there are a few leaf brands with locally sourced Canadian maple decks.
>>265703I watched the braille guys do tons of videos on different penny board knockoffs that aren't intended for tricks, they held up better than walmart boards. The penny brand ones are solid.
>>265685What sizes would you want?
>>2657387.75, 8. For $70 it would be a great budget option but as it is at 8.5 it's on the larger side.
