Welcome to slap, enjoy your gnar.

This thread gets me hyped to grind crusty shit. I'm gonna go 5-0 my local unwaxed ledge at Mach 10 now until my truck fucking snaps in half.

Price did a short article on a PHX local grinding down to the axle in 3 and a half hours.

It is from an 2010 or 2011 issue of The Skatebord Mag

I used to be subbed to Skateboarder (never subbed to TSM) and I swear I saw the same thing in Skateboarder.

Some guy just rode a bowl/pool and kept doing frontside grinds and like 4 hours later he had ground down to the axle.

Is this the same thing you're talking about?

Wasn't that Hewitt at Washington street? i do vaguely remember a dude doing it under the guise of a tootsie pop reference too

Yea.

I don't which came first this or the Hewitt thing, but yea, just tons of front-side grinds.

What's it like to skate the axle? Are grinds more smooth? Can you lock in like a mother fucker?

Such a sick thread. Only did it once and that was some gullwing super pro III's back in the late 80's.

Would love to get down to the axle on some indy's but just don't skate enough at the ripe age of 42. I've broken a lot of trucks the past several years though and I suppose that doesn't help to get to the axle due to constant replacement.

that hewitt clip is fucking amazing, i actually was thinking about that article a few days ago and if i remember it was on a mini ramp but that whole thing was done like how to get to the center of a tootsie pop

Hey Slap! new here, loving this thread. Anyway, I was happy today that after one year and a month of work I eventually reached this point :

Also really glad that it happened just at the end of the session, and on a slow flatground trick...
First time breaking a truck also, except for a few kingpins and maybe cracking a couple baseplates back in the day.

The front truck is still holding despite the aluminium being cracked all around the axle at the k-grind groove:

Time to set up a new pair I guess!

My thread is the best antidote to the truck set up thread. Nice fucking work.
