Shoes & Gear / Re: Spitfire formula four
« Last post by RichardBarkley on Today at 03:37:48 PM »Expand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteWonderful, all the V6 shape take has me thinking I want to try a set in 54mm.
Thanks Slap.[close]
Hate to add fuel to the fire, but I really really like my x99 56mm V6s. Felt a little sticky at first with the xformula and the wider contact patch coming from V5s, but now I don’t ever want to go back. Plus the aesthetics.[close]
X99 in V6 are amazing, I picked up the 54mm blk ones and I swear they are harder/louder than white x99s. Pretty much a radial...speaking of radials...just listen to how good they sound. (also when did he bounce from Indy?)[close]
Not sure if Mason bounced, but DLX is pushing a lot of riders that are not on a DLX truck to ride one. The new T2 supposedly is going to be a different turn (according to my shop owner who has been testing a pair) and sort of an Indy/Ace orientation. I could see Mason being one of the riders they push to switch since most of Real rides Thunders.
What's this about a T2? Are they going to replace the original Thunder design?
I just settled on hollow thunders and I fucking love them. Why would they fuck with it.

Enjoyed the video. Knowing nothing about the team, seeing each new name drop was awesome. Hope they are all getting paid.

Shoes & Gear / Re: Asics Containment Thread
« Last post by 144p on Today at 03:09:43 PM »@MOE SYZLAK @144p @uesty how have the Asics lines been selling for you all? Just curious to see if they are catching on. Being a small sizer (6-6.5) I'll have to search around the interwebs for a pair to try, those Japans and Gel Vikkas look really nice and up my ally.The first batch did good instantly and re ordered and kind of regret it, didn't sell much after that.
This batch sold a couple pairs already.

USELESS WOODEN TOY BANTER / Re: 2024 unpopular opinion thread
« Last post by lurkluke on Today at 03:05:02 PM »Research funded by the IOC (who clearly have a lot of skin in the game in organized and professional sport) has shown that trans women perform equivalently or slightly worse than cis women on a lot of athletic metrics:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/2024/04/11/transgender-sportswomen-at-a-disadvantage-study-claims/
It's totally fair to not want to commit to arguing on a youtuber's behalf so I'm just dropping counter evidence to show that this isn't settled science by any means.
I like a lot of Joa's content but I'm guessing he may be out of his depth on this particular subject
I've derailed this thread enough so here's my unpopular opinion: switch frontside flips are played out
I think he realised he was out of his depth because I think e pulled that vid pretty soon after releasing it, despite talking it up for a while before. (It might be on his Patron still?)
