Yeah that definitely worth a trip to the shop! I would leave with an arm full. Post up some pics if you get any of the other ones, if you would.

Yeah for sure I will. I posted the Maldonado one in the Setup thread last week. I'll probably head down soon if I'm going to go because it's on Carson st and after like 3pm the bums and street kids come out and you can't go a full block without someone trying to hustle you. 60 year old dudes with pissed pants who can barely walk will be like "hey dude! I skate too! can I talk to you for a minute?" and I have to be all like "please go away SneakySecrets." It's rough.

Fuck I will listen to SneakySecrets babble for ya.. I haven't talked about skating with someone irl in months! Shit, Im so isolated I would even hang with bums and street rats at this point.

I remember this bum I ran into was showing me his new board (actually used, probably stolen) and was super amped; he wanted to play me in a game of skate but I brushed him off and told him I had to be somewhere.

I still feel bad about that.

(I really declined because I didn't want to get mopped in skate by a base head but w/e)

If you want one the always wonderful Corner store still has a couple up for grabs. If you're lucky he'll toss in one of his fantastic shop stickers, which I won't post here so as to not ruin the surprise if you get one.

Damn, ordered some wheels off Depop. Can we get a thread of core shops with sites. That way we can support while not being local?

[sammyz]

got a pair of white Rowley Classics...only weeks after a pair of 533 NB's...i have to say, im not enjoying the NB's, but the Rowley's are awesome. I think theres something about the sizing on the NB's just doesnt feel right.

There was one in this section a few months back with a lot of shops listed. If you go back a few pages I'd imagine you'll find it. I'm on my phone right now but if no one else links it or you can't find it then shoot me a PM later and I'll find it for you.

Palace 8.3
Adidas Copa nationale

The deck is perfect, short wheelbase and kinda flat but I'm gonna hang it on the wall until I need it
Adidas fit tighter than I thought, but they have some arch support which is nice

Bought a couple of boards.

The Polar Dane 1 is a back-up, it's my preferred cruiser shape.

The Quasi Proto II is next in line for my regular board, i love the 8.25 proto, so the 8.5 equvalent should be cool.

The Krooked Bobby board is a twin tail, not shure if i will skate it, might be a wall hanger.
I don't skate a lot of switch, so i can't see the point.
I bought it because the graphic rules, i wasn't aware that i wasn't a regular popsicle.

Very jealous of that quasi. I can’t find one to save my life.

Yeah, they seem to be hard to find.

It was the first time i ever saw a 8.5 proto, so i had to snag it.

[Solid bowlcut]

Quasi 8.75
Chocolate 8.25

Loved the tapered shape on Quasi, i find it necessary when skating boards over 8.5. Also never had a PS Stix board so curious to try them.

Chocolate will be wall hanger for a while.

I feel you on the worrest and polar (I've both but my polar is the popsicle with wheel wells).

Funny, I was hunting for an 8.25" proto just last week

[jgonzalez]

got an old Zero single skull hoodie. I wanted an old one cause i didn't want that fit of a new one. The tag even says Tum Yeto LOL. when did zero leave tum yeto? 2000? I wonder how old this is exactly.

zero or die

[moonordie]

They finally arrived, wanted some high tops and I found these Evan Smith highs zero for 22 bucks shipping included

[Joe Pesci]

Got the matchbreak super in green off adidas.com with 15% off and free shipping, I don't need shoes but they reminded me of the classic campus vulc in green that I never was able to get so I had to fire it up

Is the Quasi deck wide in the middle & tapered towards the nose & tail? Eggish shape?

[FakieDisaster]

finally got myself 53 conical full 99a (quite a recent stock arriving around end of May) from my usual 100+a wheels i've been riding since forever. now my knees thank me.

Maybe little, but not that radical taper. More like a regular popsicle with little bit tapered kicks.

Working on decorating my home office and got this Blabac print of Kalis at Federal Plaza in Chicago.

Mike's got some nice ones in there.  https://www.etsy.com/shop/BLABACPHOTO

i just made the switch from 101a 53mm spitfire classics to these exact conicals. They're my first set of conicals and so far I don't love them. They seem very clunk to me and were getting caught on every little pebble I went over on a pretty smooth surface. I am going to keep riding them and trying them out. I don't want to dismiss them just yet, but so far, I miss my classics.

[chappers]

hat of summer 2020 and couldnt resist the mask

[gaunting]

that’s a sick mask. I have the sweater

[mynameisnotjeff]

@Tweekyn the conicals take getting used to. But there is something magical about the classic shape. Has the 99a in that weird mint color and kept coming back to them over and over. Such a good wheel.
