Copers?

Useful? Not Useful? Wack? I like the feel of that sweet sweet metal on concrete, but sometimes need some help grinding through those extra rough parking curbs and shit.

Aside from polyurethane wheels and bushings the only plastic that should be on your skateboard is maybe in the form of riser pads and the nylock threads on your axle nuts.

Shedding the tail/ nose bones, rails, copers, lappers etc during the 80s was oh so glorious and liberating.


grind or don't. copers made somebody a lot of money though.

My thoughts exactly, unless you're broke as fuck and need to extend the lifespan of your trucks, or are a child of the 80s. theres no need for copers, Navarette gets a pass.

the only exception is *if* you can find a set of Borgy copers

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

I have never "Grinded" copers or Z-Rollers.  Always been a little curious to feel what it's like (no homo).
