Snagged a set of Film 5.5 raws to replace the ones I sent to a pal a while back, along with a set of soft bushings for them. Euro Tings hooked me up with a bunch of Film stickers (some of which are really cool) too.
Also got some Portland wheel Co 54mm conicals, forgot the name of the graphic but it's the one that looks like Marlboro reds.
Restocked on grip (jessup ultra, blank grizzly, black magic, and some cheap stuff that actually feels good), bearings (generic Chinese ones, indy black, spitfire cheap shots), and hardware (bulk 1" Allen - Grainger has boxes of 100 on clearance for 48 cents, the shipping is a couple bucks but it's still ludicrously cheap).
Finally, I recently got a pair of those $18 wino g6 slip ons from the jewmiez sale section. Really like them, they're very soft and flexible straight out of the box, the suede is nice, and the g6 insole is pretty comfortable and doesn't feel as bulky as the ultracush in my vans pro slips. My only complaint (other than the color) is that the sole and flick area is almost too sticky at first - I had a couple "stick flips" where I just shot the board out 5 feet in front of me - but that's pretty much every vulc slip for me. Overall I'd have to say I think these are probably the best slip on I've ever skated.
P.S. - almost forgot to mention that they run a little big.. I got 11.5 because I always order half a size down with skate shoes and they fit more like an adidas or nike 12. I'll definitely get an 11 next time. Nice wide toe box if you've got Flintstone feet though.
