Who in their sober mind would go out of their way to buy Tensors in 2020?

Wow, the kooks keep crawling out of the woodwork. Gee I don't know, maybe someone who wants to try something new? I love how you act like some pretentious know-it-all when in reality you know jack shit, which you've proven over and over. on this forum. Really impressive how you try to target me with your bullshit posts too. You can fuck off as well, pillock.

Sure, dipshit. At least I talk about my skating and post it instead of being some shitstain like you who acts like he's God's gift to a skate forum and never posts anything related to his own skating. Go jerk off to some Hockey graphics.

The Primitive cracked to the point of being unskateable so I set this up

Krooked Brad Cromer shape. At its widest it’s an 8.38 but tapers down putting it in my size range. I was going to skate it as a cruiser originally, but figured I’d spice things up for a couple weeks. I slammed and fell flat on my face first try of my first trick
[close]

That shape was my first foray into shapes. Pretty mellow, only felt like a mini after taking some time away and coming back to it. Blame it on a bigger board I suspect.

Red plys are dope. Never understood that one.
[close]
Top red ply = dead
Also graphics that are mostly baby blue is a big no-no for me.

i need to try one of these Cromer shapes.  I wish I could find one somewhere.

Had to pick up one of the new $lave decks recently from my local. The Only Human series is rad and so are most of the shapes. AJ Zavala rules, too! Been skating it for a week and it feels so good!
8.675". Pretty full nose, slight taper tail, moderate to steep concave  :D No idea on WB or length but my guess is 14.5" and 32.25" respectively.
I'm used to 8.5" but I'm managing just fine!

After nearly 3 years of not riding BBS boards I finally tried them again and very impressed. Skated 8.25 for about 5 years and finally stepped up to something a bit more man sized.

Here I go. I'm going to keep the trucks factory stock till these purps break in.

It's got the best set of purps I've gotten so far from my venture experience so far. Not a blemish. Second be the Esmith hook up. Thanks again.

I'm also curious to see how the forged reacts to really heavy crust for nose slides and tail slides in comparison to the cast.

I'm pretty sure I had forged baseplates when I used to ride thunders exclusively? Idk

So

A negative happened again.

So if you see that some of the aluminum has spilled and been polished onto the axle Make Sure you shave that off.
I thought it would flake off because this used to happen all the time with older thunders and be no problem.

Unfortunately this time it's taken a hold of my inside ceramic bearing and won't let go.
I've put like 5 years maintenance into those bearings So I'm a bit bummed because I'll have to hit it with something when I go to put the classics on in a few days.

I'm not a fan of 99a conical fulls unless they are new. I will always pick the harder spit.


Anyways Hope everyone's doing okay. I'm feeling kind of down because I got to skate the down ledge and Wallie thing in the driveway.

I'm babysitting an extra kid today. I promised they could play videogames for skating yesterday.
Darby got up extra early and went skating around the block by himself today so I gotta pay up.

being a person who's trying to live by what they say is everything.

Going to be skating the cemetery tonight try to get a front pop shuv on them 9-in narrow challenge. do an impossible and a tre flip into the hill next to my homies grave.

Wish another homie would f****** film it I've asked like 10 times

This winter might be rough so enjoy life now stop hurting each other though and stop giving cops skateboards to go viral with that s***'s illegal ghetto card revoked

1/8” modus forgot to add that, my bad. I don’t think they make a 1/4” but that would be nice as an option. They seem to be the only fixed hole non-slidable risers that fit Ace’s baseplates.

Modus do make 1/4”... they are completely generic with no logos ect though. Still fit Ace’s perfect if you ever need some!

Let me be the first to say I applaud your effort, you have done the right thing.
Secondly I personally will never forget, as I begin and end every single day with praise and worship to these photos. I have found that I have become a better man in general, my skating has dramatically improved, and I have found a substantial gain in penis size (both length and girth). I strongly suggest following my regimen.

New deck today after retiring my much loved Magenta Ocean Series. Magenta decks are scarce at the moment, especially in my size so...

Picked up this cheap Enjoi deck, haven't skated one since my early 20s so thought I would give it a whirl, and I'm not exactly spoilt for choice with 7.75s anyway, gotta take what you can get.

Never had graphic grip before, it didn't actually exist when I skated the first time around, had some store credit so figured, why not, beats spray painting an arrow on the deck like I used to end up doing.

This deck has steeper kicks than the Magenta, so will be interesting to see how I adjust to that...I was quite into the mellow concave and mellow kicks thing that board had going on.

Somewhere in between, it’ll probably see hills, parks and crust the most, aside from when I just wanna switch it up. I have a Black Label with Keyframes as my designated cruiser, it’s way smoother but this setup is way more nimble. Took it to some big windy hills yesterday, fun times.

Just discovered this dope thread, I love reading this shit.



Second board is my main setup (not much of a slides kind of guy, I only fuck with grinds nowadays):

Quasi/Mother Tyler Bledsoe 8.25"
Thunder Titanium Miles Silvas 147mm
Wayward Wheels Tyler Bledsoe 53mm
Shake Junt Bryan Herman hardware
Bronson G2

Extremely hyped about my new cruisers. The 9.05" Winkowski in center will be used as a transition/miniramp board or as a cruiser depending on the wheels I put on. The 10.34" Winkowski on the far right rides pretty bad though... the shape makes it tilt too easily because those indy's aren't wide enough compared to the belly. Probably gonna end up using a 8.5" popsicle with those trucks and risers cause I'm also having a hard time getting used to the unique concave, steep tail and overall shape.
