fergus, did you get to watch it yet? I just did today, it's pretty mind blowing. I won't spoil much but it's pure Toriotoko style, just drawn out as a full-length. plenty of fucked up shit. I was confused by the guy's camera settings though, looks like he pushes the saturation to the limit on the VX and it results in a lot of glowing colors, makes for an interesting lo-fi style (which is clearly the aesthetic he's going for) but it was a bit hard to get into at times. The black and white shit looks amazing though.

Been watching regularly since I bought it! I'll agree with you on the camera settings, some shots look perfect and others have that lo-fi grainy look you are talking about. My guess is he wanted to highlight how bright and lively Tokyo as a city is? Honestly, I would've liked to have seen it in all black and white and edited in the same style as 「 In Relationen 」
Still waiting for the day he re-ups his old edits.

For those who wanted dimensions on my impulse buy from last week;

Width: 8.4in
Wheelbase: a solid 14.5in (fwiw I知 riding ace 44s and it feels incredible with this wb)
Length: 32.25in
Concave is on the mellower side, which I知 usually not into but it痴 not too bad.

First skate today and (to preface I could afford to lose a few lbs) it felt a little flimsy, but after getting used to it as I mentioned the wheelbase is a plus and I知 just stoked in general to support Roger so definitely a purchase I知 happy with.

- alien workshop spectrum deck 7.87
- reynolds 129 independent hollows, they weigh nothing
- venture 5.0
- spitire 52 mm big heads (got 4 packages for free from spitire though...)
- bones red bearings (cheap and they last forever, even with the shields popped)
- note self: always keep buying aluminum colored trucks. Always.

Thanks dude, I really want to grab a roger this run but a 14.5 wheelbase might be too wild of a jump considering I have a 14 wheelbase currently

no problem! I was coming off of a 14.25 so the change is noticeable but welcomed. I could imagine from 14 - 14.5 would be a little jarring.

How come I have missed this on! Toriotoko is one of the best coming from Japan! I have always liked his aesthetic and filming style. Is there any trailers or snippets online? PM maybe?

Yesssss! Gets hard to watch other skate videos after buying Toriotoko. Sorry, I haven't seen any trailers out there. In my opinion 「 In Relationen 」acts as a trailer for the full length, same filming style, same location, same group of skaters just expect a little more color!
Maybe silhouette could chime in with his thoughts? He's much more eloquent than me haha.

Ordered a mini logo blank because it was so cheap. Im expecting average quality... Anyone have any experience with them? Decent?

Good boards. 8,5 is a little too long for my taste, but other than that, nothing wrong with them.

Was looking for a deck and found the complete for mad cheap, the guy sold it as a "skateboard ventura"

Shoes don't need no more but vans outlet are crazy sometimes, like $15 for the vans pro cause they miss one insole. DC Mo are some of the best shoes i have tried. Sucius feel mad comfy, will give a try when i'm done with the others.

DC Mos are legit, I miss them. I'd still buy'em if they made them; can't find 10s anywhere, even in ugly colorways; I never saw the mids even hit retailers.

 Tiago's shoe has a simliar toebox.

Crailtap mystery box came out exactly as expect

CK girl 8.25
Chocolate chico 8.75
Chocolate Shirt Orange
Embroidered Girl Shirt Mint
Chocolate hat
4star deck of cards



not bad for 85$, griptape would have been amazing. Crail put out CK decks up to the last minute, Good on them for looking out, I guess. That hat feels cheap AF I feel bad for whoever paid 24-30$ for it. The shirts are thick, which is interesting. Like twice the weight of a regular shirt, but still soft, not stiff. I gotta take em out for a spend and see how they wear

Just ordered these. First Emerica I've had in years. Love the sockliner, the thinness, that they are cup and I'm curious about that Formula G sole. You know, to see if its legit or marketing mumbo jumbo. OH and the color is A+

I've been skating these in white and they are pretty good.

Nothing fancy about the design (who cares?) but they skate good and the materials are ok.

I just bought a set of these from some surf shop sale, hoping I like these as much as the romeros
