Dookie shock pads: what a spectacular scam

[headtowall]

I used to use risers way back in the day because i used to ride like 58's in the world of sub 50mm wheels

Shock pads help keep hardware from rattling loose. Riser pads not only make more clearance for less wheelbite, they create a higher fulcrum point which ads more leverage when you pop the tail on the ground for an ollie. Its science. If you can watch this video I commend your patience, but Professor Schmitt explains how riser pads can help you ollie higher.

This explains the magic behind the Fred Smith III...that board had like a 80 degree tail. So much fun to ollie on that thing.

Is there any ride video without spencer in it?

I remember wanting one because I thought I’d be able to ollie higher. It wouldn’t have made a bit of difference because I was a fat little kid who couldn’t jump but in my imagination that board was a magic bullet.

Hahaha...same here, man. My step-brother had one and I'd steal his once in a while. But the truth is that I could barely get the board off the ground. I remember putting down a garden hose and trying to ollie over it. Then a 2x4. LOL

My brother had a Tony Magnusson that had Hell Concave and a really steep tail. He could ollie really high on it and I did alright for a kid. Eventually though I landed my first impossible and 360 flip on it and after it was gone there was a long time between those tricks for me.

In my oldish age I try not to arbitrarily hate any skaters anymore, but I think he's a holdout. I definitely hate him. Any skater on the low end of the talent spectrum who films a 'day in the life' video before they even have a notable video part (anyone remember Kevin Booker?) is clearly a shitlord.

Hell Concave! I had an Alan Petersen board with a snake on it in like 1998 that had a really deep concave. It felt like the middle of my foot didn’t touch the board. Oddly, I could do bs 180s on that board noticably better than any other board I’ve ever had. Every other trick felt wrong.
