Im gonna aim to hit up Kingswell, Pharmacy, Marriage, Val Surf & Rip City. As well as a few record stores. I hope Im not missing any key shops, but thata way better than any other trip Ive taken.
We have Iceland coming up after, but Im not holding my breath for any good shops there.

« Last post by DinnerDog425 on Today at 06:42:49 AM »Every time I see you have good things to say about a truck I want to go out and buy a pair to try. But then I remember I'm weird and actually like forged Thunders and it's likely not a good idea.Expand QuoteIs there any sense to Slappy? They seemed the same thing, specially look wise, than AF1 just .9mm lower I believe.[close]
If you like the Indy/Ace/Theeve/ML style of turn, Slappy give you:
Pros
Best grind clearance out.
Best grind. period. fight me.
Faster turn than Indy.
Not squirrelly like ACE.
Quick return and stable on center.
Forged plates are the same height as cast
Less wheelbite than anything I've skated
Cons
Shitty top washer.
Heavy just like a comparable indy or ace
Height isn't for everyone.
Forged plates are the same height as cast

« Last post by Big Skatefase on Today at 06:32:18 AM »How does being a Republican skateboarder even work? You think that skateboarding should only be done in private skateparks since you love private property so much, and if skaters skate on someone else's property they should be shot and killed with an AR-15? Hellride.

I kinda get it considering his age but still. Little lame but i also don't care but i just wanted to share it

I'll preface this by saying I don't have a tiktok account.
I used to think tiktok dances were cringe based on a knee jerk reaction. But now I'm just glad people are dancing. People in America have been so discouraged from dancing. We have been made to feel ashamed of dancing. Remember how they treated disco? I'm just glad anyone is dancing in 2024.[close]
Disco was treated that way because it was a gay/black thing, sadly[close]
this is very strange in my eyes.... The US to me is one place where dancing is absolutely encouraged, it's just everywhere. Commercials, movies, all over pop culture basically. what's more american than cheerleaders?? that's dancing.
let me add disco was also a very euro thing: Giorgio Moroder, the Munich machine, Abba, Boney M.
and as for every music genre, some of it was brilliant, some was horrible. Super corny. as a young punker kid, I used to hate it with a passion, but some of those Donna Summer/Moroder records made me change my mind. That and Chic! Bernard Edwards was a monster on the bass.[close]
Did you know Boney M was a lip-syncher? Many years later, the same producer tried the same formula over (black lead singer who could dance, but not sing) and came up with Milli Vanilli
yeah I knew Boney M did not sing, but I had no clue it was the same producer for Milli Vanilli!
btw I remember buying this LP for 1 euro somewhere, cause I could not believe the cover....Cerrone also had crazy covers in the disco era.
