The “forbidden 14” thing is stupid. I like boardslides and I like scratched up graphics. I feel weird skating a board that’s partially pristine just cuz I tried to keep it that way.

Didn't the whole forbidden 14 thing come about because they hated people covering the entire top of the ledges at Pulaski Park with shitloads of wax? (Love Park? I dunno, some East Coast spots)
 
I don't think it was ever about saving graphics.

A nice front lip (to forward) on ledge feels amazing too.

That's the first time fb14 makes sense to me. I skated a narrow, suuuper low manny pad yesterday, then some dude came and waxed the top in order to do nollie board/lip??slides (The easy kind).
Couldn't skate it after that. Still not over how stupid that was

Yeah same. That totally makes sense now.

I can support that. Especially at some legendary spots where you got 100s of people skating the spot a week. Gotta have some word of mouth "ground-rules" like that to prevent spots from being ruined.
Skateboarding is the ultimate challenge.

I stay away from f14 because I have cracked too many decks on lipslides. But back board is one of the best feels.

I wouldn't film a front board on a ledge. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy a speedy front board tap on the end of a ledge while warming up.

Also, the whole forbidden 14 thing is weird because what are you like not allowed to put your board on a rail ever? That's dumb.

It's nothing against board slides or anything, it's just not a trick a do a lot.

Fucking love it. Don't agree, love hamburgers but that's the attitude for unpopular opinion thread. Maybe due simply to the amount of hamburger options vs veggie burger could be technically correct

i feel like it varies. some veggie burgers definitely taste better than beef to me, but some are absolutely disgusting.

This is probably the case. I loved a good black bean burger. Not a fan of all that imitation meat though. even during my vegan/veg/plant based phases, i never enjoyed that shit.

I’m not talking beyond or impossible burgers btw, not a fan of those. talking straight up veggie. bean, shroom, etc

love a good hamburger, ceiling for hams is probs highest. but, too many out there. too many bad ones. too dry. too bland. treasonous. low floor for hams imo. I also think floor for veggies is highest. probs won’t be the best, but they’re solid for the most part. builds trust. reliability.

thus I maintain: average veggie > average hammie

am i high? no, not never… you should too

I'd agree I don't know who first thought of it or why every restaurant who tries to get fancy does it but tall burgers are fucking stupid. Have they seriously never seen a human mouth before? How are you supposed to eat something with the dimensions of a coke can? Worst I had was from a local golf club that brags about it's best burgers. It was seriously a tennis ball of meat with tomato's just balancing on top, impossible to eat. Squashed it down and so much liquid grease/oil came out ruined the entire bun.

While I really like the look of the halfcab shoe, I don't feel like giving Steve Caballero my money.

Front Boards on ledges are fun and can look cool.

Pop shuvs out of kickers are rad.

That should fill all the boxes for this thread.

yeah it's so dumb, really don't see the appeal of 'bigger is better', basically the culinary equivalent of double flips

also not a fan of tomato in burgers

That’s weird. I never got the half cab hype. Just don’t see what’s so great about them. Not a fan of how they look at all.
