What's the most offensive gear you've ever ran?
« on: December 16, 2022, 07:06:08 AM »
I'm talking kreper trucks, neon grip, copers in the 21st century, etc.

What's your confession?
a 2x multiplier is in effect for running heinous gear past the age of 18

I'll start with purple phantom 2 trucks and neon green grip on the same setup around age 14.

I was really into clear grip for a few months earlier in the year. I'm 40...

Definitely had green grip, green wheels and gold trucks as a kid.

As a grown man, I had a single deck where I went all out. The grip was in 3 parts: 1/3 black, 1/3 clear (green top ply), and 1/3 purple glitter. It was a blank and i spray painted it gold. I called it the monster. It was my first ever 8.5 deck after riding 8.0 for many years

When I was maybe ten I had this "poo shooter" t shirt that was a weird dog with a human head with anus and balls visible forcefully blasting out a turd. Makes zero sense that my parents either bought it for me or that however It got to me they had no problems with me wearing it.

Skateboarding years:
Size 13 or 14 es cybers
Big shorts with long socks(often random coloured football socks)
Tensors with orange sliders

Had a friend who would run full blackout setups and weirdly dress in all non matching colourful clothes eg maroon emerica high tops, Kelly Green jeans, a purple t shirt and that classic all over print Krew hoody

Probably like kr3w Greco denim with Reynolds 3 w/diamond in eyelet, a white t that I sharpies a smiths album title on (voila- band t). Think I tied some cut up shoelaces off a belt loop for “flair” (a la boulala).

Was going through an experimental phase trying shorter boards with 14" WB and this was the only one in stock. 1/2 a session and the combination of graphics and dimensions were too much. 2-hour shower afterwards did help.

I'm guilty of using around 3cm strip of it (sandwiched between standard black jessup) so the whole top is gripped but have a sticker/graffic whatever strip

Filmed my favorite line back in high school on 7.5” Royals wearing puffy Adios and most likely a Bright Eyes shirt (footage has unfortunately been lost at this point)

That's a reasonable way to use clear tape!

Oh yea, i had tensors like that too, in some dumbass color combo.

NSS were sick if you were broke! I remember needing shoes real bad as a kid and it was pretty easy to convince my mom to get me some $20 sale NSS's off CCS


That's def their target demographic

Krux and very puffy eS muska reissues circa 2012 was a harsh look. I’m sorry, self.

I guess kr3w jeans and like a stripped shirts and sweaters, but I’m pretty sure everyone did. I was really into rasta stuff for a little. I liked iPath and satori and went pretty hard with the look. I had really bad dreads in middle school.  Maybe a rasta colored sweatband. I don’t really regret too much of it. Ive lived a very silly life. I’m a very silly man

I forgot about this. Not skate gear but I ran it..

I had a pair of grey kikwear pants. I guess teenage me didn't understand the difference between baggy pants and flared raver pants. I blame JNCO for blurring this line

All over print Es shirts
Hubba wheels
Super tight Kr3w pants with puffy blue and white leather Etnies Arto's
Leather Jacket or a blazer without a shirt underneath is probably the worst...
