the boardfeel is nothing to rave about, but the g2 airbags make up for the lack of. it actually feels like a little mini massage hitting a nice snappy ollie, its a pretty thin shoe, nice flick, and the hard toe cap keeps them from getting obliterated.

Best vulcanized shoe ive skated, the fit is really good and the insole is the same one they use in the syndicate vans, its really squishy and saves my feet.
if you want a thin she theyre really good.

dude, try the howard select. its my favorite skate shoe hands down and i've only had one pair.

They take very little time to break in as well. The insole is definitely a lifesaver.

-
doesn't it bug you having to buy new shoes every month
If you're skating almost everyday it doesnt matter if they're vulk or not, theyre lasting me a month at the max.
3 weeks is average for me for a pair of shoes.
when the sole is smooth and thin or the side blows out its time for a new pair.

-

yeah or if you spray paint them with cheap shit paint and it cracks and falls off instead of being like a fake slick skin
How ever, new board some Cliche red line thing with fibre glass or something in it, i've had a shit load of them and loved them all and some Spitty classic in 54, the truck are a about 4-6 weeks old so don't need new ones
Ohh and some ebay Circa Appleyards in beige hi-top which are actually fucking great
-
anyone else hate decks with heat transfer graphics......the way the paint flakes off instead of smears
considering over 75% of the industry uses heat transfers now, must be hard to find anyone that doesnt have em.
powell is the only one that comes to mind.
-
^^^^ That's weird. Does the graphic smear and then chip?
-
depends on who was doing them.
the china ones flake off badly, ive seen some deluxe and alien habitat ones that looked good.
girl/chocolate seem to be the worst offenders.
-

the specific offender im referring to is a Stereo deck, but yeah, i had a chocolate that did it just as bad, if not worse. it's really sorta an aesthetic thing for me, it just looks like crap and you get the flakes all over you hands
i've never had a problem with the Alien/Habitat decks
-
bad heat transfers flake off like that. i had an Unbeleivers do that to me the first day i set it up. some of the Stereo graphics are silk screened, i think the team decks and price points are heat transfered. Alien and Habitat have always (in my experiance) had great quality control and the graphics stay on.
nothing beats a silk screened board though, they slide the best.
-
I was wondering because the last twelve or so boards I've had have been either Alien or Habitat and I can't remember the shit flaking off.

this stereo deck is a pro-model......
Alien/Habitat are the best decks by far, i've gone years with only riding their decks, and then i get to the point where i feel like i should try something else, and when i do i'm always disappointed
-
is it one of the newer ones? what are the graphics?
i agree, the boards are top notch. been stoked on the Stereo boards though. you just can't beat PS Stix boards.
-
it's one of the baseball font graphics (two-tone colors)
-
that sucks. they must have stopped doing the silk screen with the new stuff. the last batch of boards they put out were silk screened.
-
Just to clarify i meant that alien/habitat boards were good about not flaking or having crappy heat trasfers. last bad one i had was a old element natas, the panther deck.
-
what the crap? i've never had my graphic flake off on me
-

Word. I hate heat transfers, but it seems like they're alot easier to use and you can have millions of colors.

haha remember the element 7 deadly sins boards? that was the only deck i had that i really remember the paint flaking off uncontrollably. i'm not even gonna lie, i was so psyched on element back then. could have been because i was young, but some of my favorite skateboarders right now rode for them (o'connor, pluhowski), plus barley..

i had an old zero mumford, the one with the motorhead skull on it, and i remember the paint just falling off the board. wasn't even flakes, this was like straight sheets. turned out to be a nice blank though.

i had one of those boards and you're absolutely right! it was a barley, right after he got on, and i put a bunch of TSA stickers on that I got at a demo... when i was done skating it i took the trucks off and one of the stickers was peeling off a little bit, i pulled it and all the stickers came off, taking the entire graphic underneath off too

haha remember the element 7 deadly sins boards? that was the only deck i had that i really remember the paint flaking off uncontrollably. i'm not even gonna lie, i was so psyched on element back then. could have been because i was young, but some of my favorite skateboarders right now rode for them (o'connor, pluhowski), plus barley..
i had one of those boards and you're absolutely right! it was a barley, right after he got on, and i put a bunch of TSA stickers on that I got at a demo... when i was done skating it i took the trucks off and one of the stickers was peeling off a little bit, i pulled it and all the stickers came off, taking the entire graphic underneath off too
I really like that series and that team(at that time) was sick - no BAM, Bill Pepper was such a ripper, Tim O Connor, Barley, Rob Pluhowski was am for them. Element had a super good team.

Im trying to set up a cruiser board but the holes on the front of the base of the trucks are set back, for normal boards these days, and don't have the holes in the very front (like on old boards) so I'm going to have to drill holes in the board or trucks or figure something out.

I recently stole two sets of Reds bearings from Zumiez, and took them to the local terrible shop to trade them in... $37.90 store credit, right? Then the same guy, a few days later, hooked me up with two sets of Spitfires, discounted to $20 each, so I ended up paying $5 for $60+ of wheels.

You two kids need to go back to the TWS boards where it's okay to gay off. And real men skate bigger than 49mm wheels. 49's are for kids. Slap boards are for grown ass hairy and scary beard growing type men.

I'd ride 49mm at Burnisde, FDR and Mt Baldy if could. Sheeeettt I'd buy em if I can find someone in my area that carries them. One time I was skating the Sunnvale park one time some SALBA clone in full pads felt he owned the bowl there gave me shit about my 50mm(saying shit under his breath) in the bowl, but who gives a fuck? I still skated it and had fucking fun as the bitter douche was probably steaming because he had to share his time skating his precious bowl with me and my 50's. I could give a fuck it he skated 59.5mm on a manual pad.

I really don't care, I was just making fun of the idiot who said real men skate 49mm. I prefer large wheels because I skate from spot to spot when I street skate (if I can) and I like tranny so a larger wheel suits me, plus my money is limited and I can't buy wheels ever pay check.

damn...what size deck? and could you even skate a ledge right?
-
It is funny how people think you can't skate ledges with bigger wheels, go watch some of the east coast videos from the mid 90's most of the guys where skating wheels between 56-60mm. Your board is a little heavier, but once you get use to it, it really isn't that big of a deal.
-
yea thats prolly how it is i wouldn't know biggest wheels i ever skated 53 mm. I think its just because dudes like P.J and P-Rod skate really small wheels...in W.H.L in some of P.J's lines his wheels look like circa-1993 40's.

I skated the really small wheels in the early 90's because none of the places where I lived stoked anything over 45mm and to be honest I thought it sucked, you go slower, ever little crack slows you down and you almost always get flatspots when skating ledges. If you have smooth ground it is a different thing. I like 56-57mm been skating those sizes for the last 4 years.
And don't forget the pros get free stuff so they might only skate wheels for a couple of days.

i remember when thrill of it all/welcome to hell came out, i was always riding 57 58, on a 7.625 board too

problem for me with big wheels/independents is that i can't pop as well cuz its heavy as fuck for me. i only fucking like 110.

I remember having a 7 7/8 Paulo Diaz board with 58mm wheels. And I rode many Barley Elements that where 8" with big wheels for years (had like 4 or 5 in a row).

Wheel size is all just personal preference of course, but I honestly don’t know how those guys rode 60mm wheels on street. I’m from the East Coast (PA), and skated all through the 90’s. I used to always ride like 52 or 53 mm wheels then. I remember getting 54mm and my board feeling like a heavy tank to me. I guess it is just mental, because I rode 33x10 inch boards with big Indys and 60mm wheels when I first started in the 80’s. But then again, I was doing boneless and acid drops back then, not tre flips and nollie heels. It was crazy to see popular wheel sizes drop down from that to the low 40mm’s in the early 90’s. I don’t know what we were thinking then. I prefer 50 or 51mm wheels now, but all I skate is street, so once again it all depends on terrain and personal preference. A set that size usually lasts me for two decks, unless I’m skating a lot of hills. I probably should be riding a little bigger wheel here though, the ground is even rougher then it is any where back in PA. (And that’s rough!)

Where do you live now? And yeah it is all personal, my best friend has ridden 60mm Spitfire Classics for like 10 years and he has one of the best tre flips out of anyone I know.

I probably should be riding a little bigger wheel here though, the ground is even rougher then it is any where back in PA. (And that’s rough!)
Where do you live now? And yeah it is all personal, my best friend has ridden 60mm Spitfire Classics for like 10 years and he has one of the best tre flips out of anyone I know.
On flat right? Now take that beast over a decent set and will see.

It is funny how people think you can't skate ledges with bigger wheels, go watch some of the east coast videos from the mid 90's most of the guys where skating wheels between 56-60mm. Your board is a little heavier, but once you get use to it, it really isn't that big of a deal.
Wheel size is all just personal preference of course, but I honestly don’t know how those guys rode 60mm wheels on street. I’m from the East Coast (PA), and skated all through the 90’s. I used to always ride like 52 or 53 mm wheels then. I remember getting 54mm and my board feeling like a heavy tank to me. I guess it is just mental, because I rode 33x10 inch boards with big Indys and 60mm wheels when I first started in the 80’s. But then again, I was doing boneless and acid acid drops back then, not tre flips and nollie heels. It was crazy to see popular wheel sizes drop down from that to the low 40mm’s in the early 90’s.

Right now I am living on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts. There is only one smooth road on this whole island but luckily it is right in front of my place. The rest of the “roads” here look like the surface of the moon, you could get lost in the huge craters. It’s pretty gnarly. I am the only skater on the Island that I know of. Living here isn’t great for skating, but it definitely has other perks. This is only a temporary stop, I’ll be here for about one more year until my girl finishes veterinarian school, then it’s back to the states.

At least you have one road to skate on right.

Yeah, I’m not complaining. I have this one road and a little waxed curb, I have fun. Plus on the other side of the road is the beautiful crystal blue Caribbean ocean, it’s pretty spectacular. Check it out, I live right across the street from this:

It depends on at what university my girl gets accepted to do her year long vet residency. Right now her first two choices are either the University of Oregon, or NC State. I am hoping for Oregon. After that year it will be back to Philly I think, where hopefully they will have that new street plaza type park finished. Where are you located?

Oh, that sucks bro, ha ha. That is what I am afraid of, that my girl is going to get assigned to a Midwest school, and I will have to live there for even a year. Yeah, go to Cali, you’ll have fun skating there. I have never been to Santa Cruz, but I lived in LA, and the San Diego around 93, 94. Then after you finish school you can move any where you want!

One of the best nollie heels to fakie I've ever done was at Aala Park in Honolulu with a 8.5" board with 60mm wheels and indys circa 1995-96. Shit was seriously almost level with the lip of the oververt when I felt the board smack my feet because of the momentum from the weight of the board (I learned nollie nosemanuals with this same setup). I've also skated the Upland park full pipe with 7.5" board with 51mm Gold Wheels which were big enough to get me a little over 9 o'clock. Real men just skate instead of masturbating to the number on their wheels when they're new. Right now, my setups are:
Bowl:
8.25" Black Label Hosoi
139 Independents black and red
Rock'n Ron's Ceramic Rocket Bearings
58mm Bones SPF
Deathbox rails
Park:
8" Habitat Ed Selego Hemply (shit won't die)
139 Independents black
Powell Swiss Six Balls
56mm Hubba Wheels
Dooks risers
Street:
7.6 Antihero Cardiel
145mm Thunder high black
Rock'n Ron's Rocket Bearings
54mm Mini-logo wheels

i have 4 right now, my regular board, a Delphi/Element cruiser, a one ply hand made jobby with Indy 101s and soft Spitfires and an Anti-Hero spray eagle rain board with big krypos and Indys. all collect dust except the regular board and the Delphi(cause it's new). nothing wring with having a bunch of different set-ups, but you gotta use 'em.

I had to take apart my cruiser since I gave my younger brother a complete setup for his 25th birthday to roll around on. I gave my nephew a complete for his 3rd birthday, too. I forgot to mention my rain board which is now used to skate around on the flat bar outside the garage since the ground is total board-eater (ground is fairly smooth to ride on, but will quickly eat the pop out of a board).
8" blank
139 Krux III
Diamond Titanium Bearings
52mm DGK wheels
I have a Zip-zinger, Zig-zagger, Vallely Elephant re-issue, or a Krooked Hosoi (I was using this as my cruiser before) to set up as a cruiser. I just need some trucks. Maybe I'll cannibalize the ones on my rain/driveway board. Decisions, decisions.

shop bearings? Swiss are worth the $$
-
Are they? Dude, my board is always ending up in weird places - like in the dirt, bark dust, etc. And I'm too lazy to clean them. So I asked for the cheapies. Dude at the shop told me that the pros who are on the shop team rock the cheapies too because they can't tell the difference.
And I was right too - the first thing I did was a 5-0 on a curb, and my board shot out and into some bark dust! Bearings fucked in five minutes!

I had my last set for over 3 years before I ruined them (w-40 and forgot to oil them after). They are well worth the money, and the dude at the shop is full of shit most pros ride swiss because they hold up so long. Most people I know clean theirs once a year or so.
-
Hmmm, maybe I'll try them. I've always wanted to. I like skating fast.
Btw, I don't wanna name drop, but the dude at the shop's whole crew of friends are professional skateboarders as well. I'm pretty sure he knows what they ride. Do you think shops like selling cheaper shit as opposed to more expensive shit? Think about that.

depends if the shop makes money off the cheap stuff like decks, I shouldn't say all pros ride swiss but more then once reading those set up interviews almost every pro mentions swiss when asked what they ride.
-
I noticed that too, but they also claim to ride their sponsors trucks and decks when in fact many pros ride Indys and Deluxe boards with their graphics on them (the Zero team comes to mind). At least that's what I hear, who knows if it's true.
-
haha if you need bearings for a skateboard you buy bonesswiss.period. not the 9 balls are bowie labyriths, just the normal ones in the white box
-
Swiss are the one universal truth in any set-up.
-
independents and shortys bolts maybe, too

Until the day I have $60 to drop on bearings, I'll stick to mini logos.

$39.95

i had swiss and they got all fucked up..and I got mad...swiss ain't any more durable than anything else... I hate changing bearings too...you get your hands all dirty...I just buy new china reds everytime I get new wheels....they're the best bang for the buck...if i didn't get 'em cheap, I'd buy mini logos....

i had swiss and they got all fucked up..and I got mad...swiss ain't any more durable than anything else... I hate changing bearings too...you get your hands all dirty...I just buy new china reds everytime I get new wheels....they're the best bang for the buck...if i didn't get 'em cheap, I'd buy mini logos....

About a month ago I checked out one of those Lucha Lucha series Black Label decks at the local shred shop. The wood seemed the same as PSStixs but I thought they left the Giant umbrella. I guess maybe they still get their wood from PSStix.

so i finally am hyped on my setup
ive been riding these ventures forever and the hardware actually fell off, the funny thing is i ride really loose so i didnt even notice until i abruptly stopped and looked like a shitfucker
and i gave a gander at my wheels and one wheel that stood out to me was warped beyond belief, probably about 45mm
i hate getting new shit, but i decided it was time to grow some balls
so i bought a new shop deck
independent's (the kostons were there, but if i have to choose between two trucks that skate the exact same, i will choose the cheaper ones)
spitfire classics, 54 mm

I would have never got that stereo deck if I knew it was a lo-fi board the shop owner said it wasn't a lo-fi. It's still a good deck.

With every post you've made in this thread you've solidified everyone's opinion of you as the little kid who wants to transcend his years but just can't not be 13 no matter what he does. If you don't give a shit and think this is all a joke and hate us all, then why even post any more? Why try to defend your self from every stupid insult someone makes about you? Obviously it does phase you because you have respect for older people on here, that's why you try to get all that skate knowledge, so you can hang with us. And that Slap Stereotype you described, I have a sneaking suspicion that your Slap Stereotype is a lot more a reflection of what you want to be than an actual description of anybody on this board.

you didn't answer my question though...what inteligent comments have you made while here? all you do is be a dickhead all day.
edit: and what did my immature name-dropping have to do with what he just said?
I'm sure I've made plenty of intelligent posts, and even if I haven't, I know they're a worlds ahead of anything you've ever contributed to this place. You're the little kid that lies on the internet about what he can do and who he knows so the older guys won't hate him, but they do anyway. Wait a few years and you'll see what were talking about.

i dont wanna have to defend S-town holla but if you had a friend that lived say, 5 minutes away, hes your friend. ok now your friend moves 2 hours away. does that make him not your friend. no, he is still your friend. so ding ding ding, S-Town Holla wins
Come on now, he doesn't really know this kid. He might have seen him around once or twice or even talked to him on one occasion. That doesn't equal friend, especially when the dude lives two hours away. According to S-town's logic, every person he's ever talked to is a friend. He's a little kid whose so desperate to fit in with the older guys, that he'll say anything to impress them.

I don't think they sell any other trucks in Oregon besides Independent's. There's some Oregon law in place that makes it illegal for anything but Indy's into the state.

sorry dickhead, i've talked to him way more times than twice. I went to his house in topeka about a month ago (the place two hours away) and we have plans to skate in two weekends. So fuck you faggot.

A couple of years back, I thought it would be a good idea to save all my boards for a full year; from Thanksgiving to Thanksgiving. After that, I shot a photo of them all up against the wall and then brought them to the park and gave them to random kids, or whatever. Since I don't ride them very long, that usually stokes someone out. It makes me feel better to do something sort of philanthropic for all the times I gave the park kids dirty looks for getting in my way. ;)
Now, I think I'm gonna switch it up. Even though I only have a few photos of actual set-up's, I think that by using the photos I take for this thread, I can keep the boards documented and still be able to free up some space in my garage. I just think it's a pretty cool trip down memory lane when you can look back and be reminded by the board that you skated on a trip somewhere. Anyone else do shit like this?
-
I gave my first board away (Kewday 7.625) and have regretted it ever since. I sound like a hoarder, but I find you develop a relationship with your board and they remind you of different periods of your skating (tricks learnt, places skated, what the weather was like etc.). I know this sounds stupid, but I am thinking of putting dates on my boards to remind me when I skated them - however, after reading the last post, maybe I will give them away eventually...
At the moment:
Afends 8 x 31.8 (Byron Bay (AUS) company that got a limited run of boards made through Dwindle - the local rep works at a bong shop near my office and sells them to me for $80AUS, which is damn cheap for these parts!)

well so far its been like a month and a half and no flat spots as of yet... i've had hubbas that flat spotted within a month, so i guess these are holding up pretty well. btw darkstar wheels "guarantee no flatspots" and i've yet to see any signs of them.

A couple of years back, I thought it would be a good idea to save all my boards for a full year; from Thanksgiving to Thanksgiving. After that, I shot a photo of them all up against the wall and then brought them to the park and gave them to random kids, or whatever. Since I don't ride them very long, that usually stokes someone out. It makes me feel better to do something sort of philanthropic for all the times I gave the park kids dirty looks for getting in my way. ;)
Now, I think I'm gonna switch it up. Even though I only have a few photos of actual set-up's, I think that by using the photos I take for this thread, I can keep the boards documented and still be able to free up some space in my garage. I just think it's a pretty cool trip down memory lane when you can look back and be reminded by the board that you skated on a trip somewhere. Anyone else do shit like this?
it's cool that you do that. we have a thing here where we give our used stuff to kids at the park, they give their stuff to younger kids, etc...
sharing shoes and stuff is a great way to help your scene become tight-knit. its been a few years since anyone's given me product, but I love the feeling of giving away stuff to people who need it moreso than receiving stuff

Last weekend, I gave ten boards and ten sets of wheels away. It was kind of a trip to see kids riding my old boards, but I must have had three or four more kids ask me if I had any more. It was a good feeling.
