Skating high/drunk

[IpathCats]

Nobody here wants to hear this but I don't give a fuck because it's true. Alcohol is a shitty drug. Same with nicotine. Just because they're legal and have a history of use doesn't mean they're even remotely healthy.

Shalom my dudes. I've lost way too many friends to opiates and suicide. Psychedelic medicines are potential solutions.

But have you heard about the medical properties of jenkem? Lol jokes aside, I'm sorry for your losses man. Opiates have taken 2 from me in 2021 alone.

I know everyone rants and raves about skating on shrooms but I couldn’t even take my dog for a walk the first time

[close]

Lol sounds about right. Gotta walk before you can run

I’m not much of a scientist but there’s defz a sweet spot whilst tripping
Obviously it’s not gonna work if you ate an eighth of shrooms
I don’t mean this in a confrontational manner but just fuck around and find out boys

You fully won’t think you’re gonna land it but you just pull shit

To be fair I been taking drugs recreationally for maybe 20 years

You wouldn’t wanna skate like the first time time you were tripping
Or maybe you would

Fuck around and find out

that means you had too much. you have to go through deconstruction which means you analyze your life until it basically feels meaningless. i ate a small amount of mushrooms and then chilled all day then went skating later on. had lots of energy. then i learned bs 5050 on a 1 stair rail which was scaring the hell out of me for years.

yeah weed and alchohol sucks... i am just super addicted in my mid 30s and waste my money. think about how many more fresh boards you could have got, new shoes, better car you could have been driving etc. all for what? ends up making you shittier at skating i dont care what you say. i think if you are saying you skate better after 4 beers, you have a problem. you are only kidding yourself. i find after 4 beers i am like "need to drink more!" and usually try and stop myself these days. i am actually setting myself a 2 beer a day limit from now on. the shit is just poison for you. all it really does is just make you tired and forget stuff! do you really need that?

that trap of after 1 -2 beer you feel bit more confident is negative thinking. you dont need that. it was always there within you before you had the beer. i think that is equally as kooky as saying jesus is my inspiration. as much as neen was cooler or whatever before he was a health freak, at the end of the day he is doing what makes him feel good and not doing it for yall.

Lol I think microdosing is the key there (taking small, subperceptual doses). It could also be beneficial to not skate during a macrodose (full dose), but skate the next day. The afterglow effect is real; instead of feeling hungover like most drugs you feel mentally refreshed.

It's anecdotal but I got sober after a random shroom trip in 2009 when my acquaintances ditched me and I was forced to sit on my couch and contemplate my life's path. I've read countless stories similar to mine all over Reddit and the internet. Plenty of good studies relating to psychedelics and sobriety mentioned above as well. Ibogaine seems the most promising compound for opiates specifically since it also quells withdrawal symptoms.

If yer gonna skate drunk, wear a helmet and let ‘er rip.

word. even 2 beers can make me feel funny next morning. i believe weed should be legal but i regret getting so deep into it. i can't imagine what i spent on it during my 20's.

The money aspect of weed definitely sucks and can add a ton of stress. If you’re in a state that’s legal setting up a grow tent is a worthy investment. U can order seeds from attitude seed bank online and they come in inside a toy and guaranteed female. Never had trouble for over 10 years

[manysnakes]

I've had some of the best sessions of my life coming down from mushrooms, but I don't understand how people skate with any amount of weed or alcohol in their system. I hate it, it completely fucks up all my cognition, but also I am no sort of addict and have no habitual problem with either, so I never learned how to go through a regular day doing regular things while high or buzzed/drunk.

[Vomit Lust]

Two of my all time best sessions were when I got drunk for the first time and a random acid weekend in downtown Atlanta with my best friend. Many more awful sessions were countless other times I got drunk and other acid trips with negative whiney assholes around. I don’t fuck with any of that anymore, but I will pop like 5-10 mg of Ativan occasionally to get over the anxiety I’ve had since breaking my leg a few years ago.

The early part of an opiate buzz is rad for skating, but then you get lazy and you don’t wanna be doing that shit anyway.

So other than a few bright shining moments of brilliance, buzzed sessions are normal to mediocre and I don’t need drugs to be either of those.

[Urtripping]

I tripped with my buddy who lived across the parking lot in my apartment complex once, skating back and forth between our apartments felt like I was on a humming magic carpet. I was finding every excuse there was to go back to my place and get something.

I definitely have had experiences where I was landing shit after a few beers that I was struggling with before, but skating transition while drunk has only ever ended in disaster. No pun intended there.

Psychedelics are the only class of inebriating subtlstances which I'll imbibe in nowadays. They are are psychoplastogens, which means they induce neural plasticity and allow your brain to change, which can help people escape negative ruminative thought patterns, or break addictions. Psilocybin was also shown to promote neurogenesis (regeneration of brain cells) by Yale recently. Obviously even these things need to be done with moderation and respect though. Here's a list of a growing body of evidence proving that they have unique characteristics which can actually IMPROVE your mental health:

In a series of field studies involving over 1,200 participants across six multiday mass gatherings in the United States and the United Kingdom, we investigated the effects of psychedelic substance use on transformative experience, social connectedness, and positive mood...Controlling for a host of demographic variables and the use of other psychoactive substances, we found that psychedelic substance use was significantly associated with positive mood—an effect sequentially mediated by self-reported transformative experience and increased social connectedness.

“Reductions in anxiety, depression, hopelessness, demoralization, and death anxiety were sustained at the first and second follow-ups. Within-group effect sizes were large. At the second (4.5 year) follow-up approximately 60-80% of participants met criteria for clinically significant antidepressant or anxiolytic responses. Participants overwhelmingly (71-100%) attributed positive life changes to the psilocybin-assisted therapy experience and rated it among the most personally meaningful and spiritually significant experiences of their lives.”

9-19-18 - Psychoplastogens: A Promising Class of Plasticity-Promoting Neurotherapeutics - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6149016/
“Neural plasticity—the ability to change and adapt in response to stimuli—is an essential aspect of healthy brain function and, in principle, can be harnessed to promote recovery from a wide variety of brain disorders. Many neuropsychiatric diseases including mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders arise from an inability to weaken and/or strengthen pathologic and beneficial circuits, respectively, ultimately leading to maladaptive behavioral responses...Here, I describe psychoplastogens—a relatively new class of fast-acting therapeutics, capable of rapidly promoting structural and functional neural plasticity. Psychoplastogenic compounds include psychedelics, ketamine, and several other recently discovered fast-acting antidepressants. Their use in psychiatry represents a paradigm shift in our approach to treating brain disorders as we focus less on rectifying “chemical imbalances” and place more emphasis on achieving selective modulation of neural circuits.”

These changes in neuronal structure are accompanied by increased synapse number and function, as measured by fluorescence microscopy and electrophysiology...Our results underscore the therapeutic potential of psychedelics and, importantly, identify several lead scaffolds for medicinal chemistry efforts focused on developing plasticity-promoting compounds as safe, effective, and fast-acting treatments for depression and related disorders.”

“Cancer patients often develop chronic, clinically significant symptoms of depression and anxiety. Previous studies suggest that psilocybin may decrease depression and anxiety in cancer patients...High-dose psilocybin produced large decreases in clinician- and self-rated measures of depressed mood and anxiety, along with increases in quality of life, life meaning, and optimism, and decreases in death anxiety. At 6-month follow-up, these changes were sustained, with about 80% of participants continuing to show clinically significant decreases in depressed mood and anxiety.”

“A recent large population study of 130,000 adults in the United States failed to find evidence for a link between psychedelic use (lysergic acid diethylamide, psilocybin or mescaline) and mental health problems. Using a new data set consisting of 135,095 randomly selected United States adults, including 19,299 psychedelic users, we examine the associations between psychedelic use and mental health. After adjusting for sociodemographics, other drug use and childhood depression, we found no significant associations between lifetime use of psychedelics and increased likelihood of past year serious psychological distress, mental health treatment, suicidal thoughts, suicidal plans and suicide attempt, depression and anxiety. We failed to find evidence that psychedelic use is an independent risk factor for mental health problems. Psychedelics are not known to harm the brain or other body organs or to cause addiction or compulsive use; serious adverse events involving psychedelics are extremely rare. Overall, it is difficult to see how prohibition of psychedelics can be justified as a public health measure.”

I learned a few tricks while drunk. But not because my ability got better, but because I simply wasn't as scared. Had a hard time even rolling around but somehow learned blunt kickflips on (small) transition, which are scary as hell for me.
Same for bluntslides on ledges. I guess alcohol leads to blunts for me.
I get way worse, but I tend to commit more.
Still would never recommend and it happens extremely rarely.

My best skate session ever was after a night of mdma use, don't know why but I was skating with my full ability and full commitment.

[9inchdeck]

The first time I skated a vert ramp, the owner was throwing a party for his birthday. Everyone was drinking, smoking, taking shrooms, tabs, etc. I had dropped in on it before, but I didn't get the courage to start grinding the coping until I was 13 beers deep. At 8 beers, I tried to do a 50, said "nope" then went straight to the cooler and started chugging haha. Went back again sober and couldn't bring myself to do it again.

[TheBoognish]

I've been skating high since I'm 15. Not stoned, just a little high, a small bowl or two.. maybe a joint with the homies mid-session. If I smoke too much, I can't skate for shit. I get stoned like a motherfucker when I go skiing though, I don't even get that high on my couch.

I can't skate on any amount of alcohol. Beer is the worst, it starts boiling in my stomach once I start moving and I end up puking out foam. Haven't skated with a beer in me in at least 10 years. I keep that shit for after the session, yard work and fly fishing.

Mushroom microdoses are a toss-up. Sometimes I get lost in my own mind mid-trick, other times I'm in the fucking matrix tearing the skatepark a new asshole. I don't do it often. Skating while tripping is an absolute no.

Oh I meant to post it in here. 

[deadmilkman]

I think it depends on your tolerance to weed/booze. For me, skating while drinking works fine until I'm actually drunk and I lose some of my coordination.

I have a friend, and every time I film with him he drinks anywhere from four to eight beers while he is trying a trick. I have reason to believe that his alcohol tolerance is quite high. I don't go out with him often because he lives in another state now but every time I do he gets a clip.

[SatanicPanic]

A little bit is ok. Surfing high is fucking rad though. Mellow waves + sunny day + edible weed = the best thing in the world

[coyote2425]

I've had some good stoned flatground sessions and used to enjoy a few beers at the park/spot. Two beers was the sweet spot, after that I'd feel way too loose, which can be fun or dangerous. 

Lately, mid-30s, it's skate then drink or drink and not skate. OK, maybe a beer on the sesh. However, the worst injuries I've had the past few years have been pushing through traffic and eating shit while drunk. Nothing worse than the running throwdown to shoulder plant.

You pals skating while tripping are next level. Respect.

[GardenSkater77]

Skating is cool, but you know what’s even better than skating?

Skating…

[SneakySecrets]

Any more than a toke or 2 beers and things go downhill quick.  I landed a nice 360 flip completely shitfaced once though.

[munchbox]

microdosing >

[IUTSM]

when I was skating pools, I was usually drinking a lot of beer and whiskey. Really, ingesting all sorts of crap. Fear was less of an issue. I'd get pretty wasted and do some cool shit I wouldn't try otherwise. While it was fun for a minute, it's not sustainable. Other than getting some really killer hill bombs at the tail end of benders, skating street while drinking never really worked out. I haven't drank in about 8 years.

When I was coming up we'd be burning Ls and skating all over the place. Blunt level stoned was never a good thing for my skating. Like never. Unless it was a just right cross fade situation.

Now, I know the sweet spot of what I want to experience and get there. Most of the time, unless I'm get really trying, herb doesn't get me too high anymore. So if I take a candy or smoke a bowl to loosen the limbs, it's alright.

What I really like to do is take .2g fungus, .5mg THC, and go skate. Shit gets real loosey goosey and extra fun  I don't know how it effects other people though because I take at least .1g fungus every day 


I've had some cool experiences skating after eating a slice or coming off some mics, but skating while peaking or anything isn't really what I'm trying to do.
