Just bought the Merrell Dime jawns too in that "Birch" colorway, can't wait to get them in, how do they feel? Never had a pair before but heard good things.

Checkerboard vans skate authentic, so stoked for those. They're canvas but I love the way my canvas chuck 70s skate with a lil shoe goo. Thinking I might even goo in an extra duracap or suede layer on the inside of the shoe.

A small haul of stuff I got recently that I'm super stoked on. The 1010s were a birthday gift from my partner, the Sci Fi hat was $14 shipped from the Mr. Porter sale, and the enjoi deck was $25 shipped from Thank You Supply. I paid full price for the pink Punkandyo hat and I liked it so much that I copped the black one when they were giving out $20 off coupons on instagram lol

Just got this ride on slappy flatbar from Just Rails...he doesnt have a website but takes orders through instagram. His prices are wayyyyy cheaper than blunt steel if you have ever been interested in buying one of those. He also does regular sized flatbars as well. He makes them to order so you pick your color you want too. Definitely worth hitting up if you have been wanting a rail for a fair price.

Ive actually never skated one lol. But i feel like different ride on grind variations would be pretty fun to mess around with out front of the house. I skate curbs all the time and am not expecting this to be anything like a curb but more for some quick fun out front with the kids. Its definitely not for everyone...especially young dudes who still have pop haha

How are they? I’ve been on the fence for a couple months but am satisfied with the Isotopes.


Fastbreaks, Tyshawns, Thunder risers/bolts/100-duro bushings, Dickies socks

Seasons delivered faster than Prime.

I've got Fusions and they're indistinguishable from my Atoms. The Quantum guys said the difference should contribute to longevity and given how good my Atoms have been they'll probably last until I can't skate anymore. Fast and I never have to do shit to them.

I've got a blunt steel rail I've been skating in my basement for the last several months. I use it as a way to learn new tricks and just do fun stuff on. It gets you comfortable with cross locking and I learned crooks and feebles on it. Its 4" off the ground, so you can really do any trick with very low risk of hurting yourself. Removing that fear factor makes it much easier to learn things I think.

Once I get more confident, I just throw it on a pair of cement blocks and I have myself a regular rail to skate. You can also use it like a pole jam, do up/down grinds off of things, throw it on a curb, etc.

I have some isotopes on the way after skating nothing but reds for a long time. I'm excited to see how they do.

I only had one session. They are smooth but not faster than my Bones Six Balls. I guess they take some time to break in.

They do take some time, but absolute speed is not the reason to choose the Fusions over another bearing it's the durability of the coating. They should outlast several pairs of Bones Six

Thanks, all of you!  From the heart.

Re: the Fusions, they do have a small break in period.  And the hard coating is something that’s never been applied to bearings (like all the other tech we’re using), so the sound is something that you’re going to notice.  Mine sound like a small jet engine coming in for a landing.

I went with green. No real reason behind it, just thought it would look cool. What color do you go with? Bummer about the weather in your area. I’m fortunate to live in AZ where we have mostly sunny days regardless of time of year.

Nice! I went with green also. The picture in this thread is the one he did for me. He sent me that picture of it right after he finished it up. I thought green would just look cool. Ill definately share how it skates later this weekend and hopefully get a couple decent clips on it as well

Just curious, how much did you guys pay for a little rail like that if you don't mind me asking? It's constantly snowing up where Im at and looking for something easy to lug around at the plowed parking lots around here lol
