Has anyone had experience with this shape? Any thoughts on truck widths for it?

I had the Metal version of this. Virtually indistinguishable from the Primitive/Heroin/Krooked 9.1 egg, and I found 8.75 axles to be perfect (AF1 60s in my case)

Thanks!

i'm going through a 'thoroughly buried by life' phase and can't bring myself to skate.  its always the same, skate and start feeling good on the board after a few months, then stop for months and back to square one

No idea how long this sale lasts.

Kicking myself for not jumping on this. Hoping for some F4 deals this weekend.

USELESS WOODEN TOY BANTER / Re: Chris Cole beat and abused his ex wife and his real name isn't even Chris

Not knowing anything about skaters’ personal lives was a luxury we can no longer afford, I guess.

Anyone else not have a doubt in the world that the reason Chris Cole called the traveling windshield repair man so quickly was to hide the evidence of his abusive rage and ensure that no questions were asked?

i mean that’s also just what you do when your windshield is broken so bad you can’t see out of it

Oh, my bad, you're right: he's just super efficient when it comes to auto repairs.

USELESS WOODEN TOY BANTER / Re: Musicians/bands that skate
« Last post by sparklingrainwater on Today at 09:12:19 PM »
The hardcore band One Step Closer are skaters. Alot of their merch are rips of skate brands. They've released boards and stuff. I say you could throw a rock in a group of hardcore bands and probably hit a guy/girl who skates.

My stock purples have now broken in, and I feel comfy with the forged plates. However, during some cold spring days I noticed the stock bushings freeze up pretty bad. So I guess I need a plan for fall. Any recommendations? I have blue Indys in ice, are they any better in cold conditions?

getting up from any one of those El Toro slams and committing to another bs flip is much gnarlier than landing any trick ever.  Doing that many in a row is transcendent.

Do you guys honestly think jamie is gonna say something about this before chris? Neither of them are, it’s been out there for years and they’re just gonna keep ignoring it

Jamie commenting on another man's spousal abuse accusations, when it hasn't been proven,  could probably put him in some legal trouble, no???  Especially if he decides to essentially fire him from his job.   I can't stand Cole,  and I'm sure he's a piece of shit,  but expecting a written response from Jamie on this seems unrealistic.

sorry to derail but…i wonder if there’s ever been an unfair dismissal suit from someone getting kicked off a skate team  ???
Doubt it, skaters are contractors not employees


Going to say one thing and digress so as to not further derail the thread but if you genuinely believe that SLAP has gotten worse over the past decade-plus, you are part of the problem
