Say something honest..
« on: February 12, 2020, 01:50:22 AM »
I really dislike camo pants.
I know I should like Zereds skating, but I just can’t.
I’ve been pretty vocal about core skate shoes, but I kinda wanna try some NBs.

Go on..

It is not the wheelbase, bushings, wood shop, grip tape, wheel shape, or shoes fault that I can't skate the same way I did ten years ago.
Hey, hey, hey. Don't be mean. We don't have to be mean because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

As long as you keep a buzzed head it’s all good Paco. Nobody gives a shit but you, you’re awesome.
I thought of another one.

Dickies and Chuck Taylors are both horrible, double demerits when worn at the same time.

The fact you’re still going at 40 is epic.

I’ve felt that way since I broke my leg at 23. 35 now and feel lucky I can skate 3s/4s without trippin too hard. That’s cool with me

My homie started skating at 26 and it was cool to see him progress fast until he started being better than me. Not gonna lie I was jealous/hating. I didn’t want to skate with him for a minute.

He’s a naturally gifted athlete so I shouldn’t have been a little bitch.

He made me a better skater too cuz I had to push myself to not fall behind. So stupid
Tyshawn seems like the kind of guy to hate everyone at least a little bit

I went to monster jam in like 2015 and I spilled an entire beer on a baby. I was pretty drunk and they were sitting in front of me and I didn’t know what to do so I tried to give them the forty dollars I had on me but they wouldn’t take it.

I would be a much better skater if I wasn't a fatso, but I don't have the discipline to diet.
Before you say the music sucked, have you considered shutting the fuck up?

I wear low profile knee pads under my pants. I’m 36. Puts my mind at ease. Especially when I take a slam on it that would have ended the sesh.

I once bought an April board. I didn't care about the logo i just wanted to try the shape and the wood.
I skated it for 5-10min max before going back to the shop and buying another quasi the same shape I was used to. Ended up selling it for half what I paid.

I ride past a skate park every morning and tell myself "tomorrow I'll bring my board" even though I know I never will.

I’ve never, ever done a switch kickflip. It just feels like my ankle on that foot doesn’t do that motion.

I’m also disgusted by manchildren. I can’t help but discriminate against them. They’re sickening. I’m talking about grown men that look like tiny 12 year old boys e.g. Elijah Wood and Daniel Radcliff. I assume they’re perverts or sick freaks. I can’t turn it off. I know it’s wrong to hate, but on a primal level, they creep me out. I can’t even look at a photo of Elijah Wood.

^I've never done a switch or nollie flip either. I blame it on my back ankle having a fully detached ligament but deep down i think it might just be an excuse.

It’s shocking how many posters here don’t skate or used to skate and think that their opinion about skateboarding matter.

I routinely beat overweight twelve year olds that can barely ollie in games of SKATE.  I talk shit to them as I’m administering the ass-whooping.

Sometimes I feel like building my personality in an insular subculture that revolves around children's toy may not have been the best thing for my social development as a young person and it affects me personally and professionally almost every day.

I'm the guy who can be over-friendly at the park and spend 15 minutes straight talking to people about gear, wheelbase and how much better younger people have it with regard to skateboarding. I have to remind myself not to be an old crumnudgeon at the park and just enjoy the session.

That said, I've come to enjoy skateboarding more in my 30s than I did in my youth and wish I came back sooner.

its the dead of winter, my knee is fucked and I'm not getting any younger so I'm approaching this coming summer with a bit of dread.

That and Etnies Marana E-lites were the best shoe I've had in a long time even if my wife called them 'clown shoes' when I first got them.
