Skating my first set as well. I love that they feel so good on rough ground even though they're 51s, but I didn't realize they'd wheelbite so much easier than classics.

That is interesting that classics are so much less prone to wheelbite. I want the smallest, functional wheel,  even debating looking for the widest sub 52 mm wheel. I don’t prefer wide wheels, contrary I prefer a thin wheel usually, but riding lower trucks....and rather not carry my board to the spot. I’ll probably carefully consider a bunch of options, like a dork, and then stick with my f4 52mm classics

Yeah, its the square profile, as the bite seems to only happen on the outer edge. I want the same. I'm cool with a little wheelbite if it means I can keep rolling over shit, and I know the tablets will look good worn down.

Got myself a new girl ck deck, Etnies Joslin in grey, and a pair of lakai manchester's. All from my local shop too.

Yes my order came!!

First impression of the GT is positive. I'm definitely more of a dunkist. But its true to size. I'm definitely going to shred this shoe fast.
I think i give it 12 hrs of skating before I have a hole. One week for switch foot.

All I need is 30 days out of the sole. Time starts after the rain.

[close]

I want an update when you get a hole. For the ollie / wallie hole I’ve put cardboard in the inside and super glued it but I didn’t have that problem with any of my last three pairs. I skate my last pair for definitely over a month before the toe hole brewed

Edit: I wanted to post a pick of my last pair. They lasted longer than pairs I've had in the past I feel like they're getting better. It seems there quality has gone up since my first pair. They do feel like you'll run through them quick but they do last a longer than you'd expect.

[close]

Yuck - That swoosh is giving me anxiety. I like to throw super glue under the swoosh once the seams rip to keep it in place.

Here's my pair. I'm always easy on shoes. The flick hole started about a week in. I just fill it with super glue and life's good. Once that wears down just repeat.

I've chopped the swoosh to patch a hole in the ishod decon black.

But yeah I had a two hr flat sesh new shoes old old board. Kickflips heels heels straight 6 because I'm old. Then
Wallies over the stones etc.

Now I'm running the Orange dunk insole I'm shocked how nice this kick is for a vulc

I could run an 8 maybe in these.

This shoe is a swamp. I wish I could run no laces.

I'm going to score some nice wool blends to lower future stink.

How’s the lock in factor? I need every hook n crook for ledge tricks.

I only slappy crook tbh, but they feel super locked in. I put off trying them because I kept hearing that a square edged wheel makes slappys harder but I don't feel it. If anything the lock makes them easier.

Thanks!
Yeah I was of a mind that classics were easy to get into/out of slappys, and would slide easier, but maybe didn’t lock in as well.
I amaze myself that I develop these ideas completely independently from ANY ABILITY TO DO THESE FUCKING TRICKS

Don't worry, I stress about how my setup will flip when I can only do heels/varial heels (and poorly).

first set of colored wheels...

Got those in 55mm yesterday

hell yea.

[Charlie Hustle]

I bought cheap bearings that are going on 45mm wheels. I bought volcom pants and I didn’t know that they have that dumb logo embroidered in to the leg and now I don’t want to wear them after spending $40. I also ordered 2 candles from Brink because my wife was about to buy some expensive French soy candles. Support small bidness.

I've bought Volcom pants recently. Just take the logo out with a thread ripper.

The brink candles are great too

Not a Plan B fan at all but I wanted a PS board and that blk ice crap feels nice, also it was cheap so why not?

I'm currently on Ace 44, got tired of Indy childish mentality, and got some Worrest V-Lights on ice but just in case I don't like them I got these weird Thunders (I wanted Thunder for a while already). They were for a nice price too and the hanger doesn't bother me that much, probably because the color is not a solid one (anodized?)

Where did you get that Plan B deck?

Krooked has a "blank" going at $40, in Real SE dimensions (8.06 x 31.5 x 14), got me tempted.

Picked up some New Balance 379’s with the white/grey/red color way. Didn’t really need new skate shoes yet but trying to support the local shop right now. Probably wear them around a couple weeks before I skate in them.

[FrenchFriedClownFingers]

pulled the trigger on this. thankfully my strict diet of shrooms pancakes and pasta has afforded my broke ass the luxury of a new board.
