Got the devin bagnoli dickies from 303. Cool embroidery of a drawing he made.

Also just ordered the sci fi fantasy bait deck from atlas. Looking forward to that even though i already have four decks in plastic ready to skate.

Ricta clouds 92a 54mm. Perfect wheel for rough roads.
Was on OJ Keyframes previously which were great but were a touch too bouncy.
It was either these or the OJ Nomads.

Recently re-setup a set of 54 92a clouds and they are the perfect middle ground

So far so good on the rough roads here in the philippines. Would love to see how they go at a park!

wouldn’t recommend 92a at a park. The soft urethane will slow you down. I’ve found this from rising 95a on a smooth tennis court. Feels strange

Randomly sent it on a 8.5 Doomsayers deck that looked nice when I went in to my local, and turns out it is the exact same shape as my 8.5 Fitzgerald Hockey deck. Deck is a lot lighter overall, which is great IMO, but definitely was not expecting this.

Still BBS wood then.

Good thing you like it so you don't have to "send it" back, hey?!?

I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

The Doomsayers was actually PS i'm pretty sure, it had the PS# on it. maybe i just lucked out on the shape similarity if Hockey is 100% BBS produced currently?

Me and Ricky Stiles drank all the beers and ordered this shit I think. Flip tricks should take an unnecessary amount of effort, but whatever bro don't be dumb, I will figure it out.

I guess it depends how old the Hockey board was, as both have been on PS Stix in the past, and it would be PS Stix if it had the SN# PS 4848484 on it.

Either way it is a good one.

Well, the local was running pretty low with no proper sized BBS shop decks and limited DLX so I went online Friday and ordered from 35th Ave. Shit arrived today, Monday. Free shipping and priority mail arrival times is pretty sweet. Scooped an 8.5 shop deck and wanted to try a Polar shape and went with this surf JR. Looks like a fun, not flat cruiser/curber and I'm hyped on the wheel wells.

Bones Swiss 6 busted, maybe due to a bent axle, maybe from slipped axle, maybe counterfeit. I don't know, but ordered some Quantum Isotopes to try out

My local slept on the Ace release, and doesnt carry LRAB and I am sorry to report that my love affair with Vans is over. The new shoes suck.


ok thanks

8.25 Kyle Nicholson and 8.37 Ty Beall scumco decks

Got slightly spooked by Scumco getting new boards from Control (my least favorite wood) so I stocked up a bit more since I'd imagine it'll be at least another year before we see more PS boards from them. I forgot to take a pic of the graphic and I've already set the Ty Beall up so these are just the tops but neither of these graphics are favorites from this run anyways. These two came from Holistic, which is one of my favorite shops to order from since JD is super attentive and takes time to measure, photograph, and fulfill any other weird madness related requests I may have. He's also a lakai rep so they've always got a great selection of shoes in stock. Definitely one of the best shops out there in my opinion.



No pic but I also got another Evan Smith 8.25 from Radio. I've got 3 on ice now so that should hopefully last until the next PS run where they'll hopefully use this shape again. It really is one of the best shapes I've ever skated. There might be one more 8.25 at Radio (they had 2) if none of the locals grabbed it, so if you like full/square shapes with mellow kicks I'd suggest grabbing it before my madness flares up again.

Just ordered 2 Quasi boards and 2 FA boards. Time to put to rest for good whether or not I like PS or BBS better.

Stocked up on Vans Pros at the outlet, bought a pair of blacked out slip ons two weeks ago and they gave me a $25 off coupon so I went back and bought a pair of black Era and a pair of marshmallow Old Skools.

This ranks above my AWS Moon Pop deck (signed by all Mindfield riders), DGK '93 Til deck and Populis deck signed by Kenny Reed in 2020.

Also picked up 2 Santa Cruz Everslicks and a Girl 8.25 Pop Secret on clearance because I'm a sucker for tech-gimmkery. The Girl deck was a happy accident, ordered a regular 8.25 and only noticed the carbon fiber strips when I was packing it away.

Little re-up. Money's tight and I should just be skating through my backlog of gear but...  ::)

Have never tried one of the dlx price points. The board's a I and I've only ever ridden IV & V.

I skate all different sizes for some reason. Probably counter productive but whatever. I haven't tried the surf but I will this Summer hopefully. I dug for that 9" pop and eventually one popped up on Parade. I have some 55 Aces coming for that and I can't fucking wait. My frustration/anxiety of another Spring snowstorm made for a really productive 420 homey

Went into my skateshop to grab risers and ended up copping Justin Henry’s pro board
