Magenta guest artist mark gonzales retro shape 8,6'
-
I had to get used to the shape first, but then it's pretty fun and not so different from my usual 8,5'
The square tail is perfect to lock in 5.0 on transition,
but at first, it was quite disturbing to find the sweet spot to scoop/pop flip tricks

just used eBay for the first time in 13 years (got burned on a broken vx1000 in '03) & got another habitat cork cruiser. These things are great, I think I saw they might be bringing them back into production soon, but I didnt wanna wait and see.
I like that its a smaller cruiser shape (7.875x30.5) I've noticed alot of shaped decks now are also gigantic tanks.
I'd rather zip than zag.

Looking forward to giving it a new graphic too.

70% off -> 39�. "Saved" 90�. Couldn't resist. Was home bored out of my mind recovering from a flu and I ended up to the wrong place on the interwebs.

I need to stop "saving" money soon though, or otherwise I can start a skate shop, cuz I have too much gear around. All this gear seems to last me a lot longer these days than it did as a kid too.

I would have never bought these shoes for anything even remotely close to the normal price. They'r rather outrageous IMO.

Gotta put on some white pants, a white shirt, these shoes and find my white lab coat from somewhere and go to the hospital and pretend to be a nurse as these look pretty much like nurse shoes to me.  :D
I just got the all black ones for like $60. Perfect for corporate gigs and upcoming weddings.

Yeah, the all black ones would be better for that for sure. Also got the Black suede ones with white sole. They don't look all that dressy to me, but I like them best of all the Dylan colorways. Overall, for "fancier" shoes, to wear for meetings at work and such the Dylan isn't really my cup of tea. I'd actually prefer the HUF Gillette for something smart casual, but those don't seem to be nearly as widely available as the Dylans and I haven't seen them on sale anywhere yet.

Living where you wish you lived, I think the closest Ross is about 6500 km from here, so I think I'm not gonna make the trip to Ross for the Gillettes, even if they were 0,20 bucks.  ;D

But thanks for the suggestion. I'll be sure to check out Ross the next time I come over to Yankistan.  :)

Habicork bork showed up at my door.
Sanded the graphic off this morning. Still thinking of what I wanna put on it.



I also found a pair of cts mids for $8 at the thrift store near my house. I had to shoegoo the soles back on a little, and I peeled out the dirty old insoles and dropped in a pair of habitat footwear insoles I've had stashed away. Loved the last pair I had (not really for skating but just for wearing around) but had to throw them out after I stepped in a big pile of shit. Glad to finally replace them.

Just went to good will and got this gem. The Kicker? Even though you can see the tag says $5.99 it only rang up as $2.99!




SORRY FOR THE BIG ASS PICTURES!

Didn't buy it technically, but got this as a gift from a friend not too long ago. I'm surprised at how square the nose and tail are. I know a good chunk of PS decks are pretty square, but I wasn't expecting it to be like this. Gonna be quite the change from the rounder and pointier Baker B16 shape that I usually ride.

Anyone looking for a GX1000 Thrasher hoodie in a large, let me know and I can sell it to you for retail plus shipping. For whatever reason, I just don't want it.

After a solid recommendation from jsoy and skating nallid's at the park, I'm a firm believer in these.  Fast as hell right out of the box, never worry about spacers or speed rings again.

bmc was explaining this to me at the park the other day. does your board make a thud sound almost like when you have softer wheels or do you get that crispy rattle when you drop it or are skating around? (if that makes sense)
