Wanted to try some ventures again, so I copped some v-lights (regular axel, hollow king pin, forged base). Wanted to grab some bones softs too, but the shop was out so I got some german copies of bones mediums. Also copped a cheap clip on fisheye for my phone.

Just ordered some Emerica Slip Cups. Does anybody on here like skating in these or should I keep them as chillers?

How’s the heel lock? That’s my biggest concern.

Ebayed some Kreper Grind King kingpins. Excited to try them out.

Picked up another pair of Sheep shoes from the Etnies website sale. $26 bucks with free shipping! My husband stocked up on some eS shirts for 11 bucks apiece.

Ordered this from Energy in Daytona because the dimensions looked good (8.75x32.25 14.25wb), measures right on. Hoping to cure a bit of the madness.

I'm trying to slim down a little from the 9" Creature Stump I'm currently skating (and liking). If this is as snappy as the creature I think I'll have a winner.  Any specific criticism on it, or just generally don't like it?

just got my union skate supply sale order



the Play Skateboards Cape Fear board almost looks too good to skate.  good job from what I'm guessing is a regional brand?

half size down on the last resorts and they fit perfect

Browsed my local Craigslist equivalent and chanced upon this beauty.



Bootleg graphic still on the wheels, bearings haven't completely seized up. There are lots of scalpers who would have picked it for parts but I'm happy to have found the piece of history.

If I could find a Pete Eldridge Bootleg one my life would be complete.

On a work trip again, in Munich this time! The last resorts I brought with me were more cooked than I thought, so I grabbed these from the local.


I guess it's true what they say: you either die a hero, or live long enough to become a white shoes with an all black outfit guy.

I've been eyeing these shoes for a few weeks now. How you like them? Do they fit a bit more snug and stiff as halfcab pros? They look rad.

I'm skating them tomorrow so I'll probably have more to say then, but first impressions are okay. They're the only vans that didn't immediately shred my Achilles when I put them on the first time, and I'm excited to have a little bit of padding around the ankle, but they do feel narrow. I've never had half cabs, so I can't compare to them, but I have narrow feet and they still pinch a bit. The only thing that doesn't feel narrow is the toe box, but I'm coming from last resorts so anything is gonna feel like a clown shoe.

A set of Bones STF slims 103 duro. Had spitfire tablets before. Balancing grinds seemed harder with the spitfires and crooked grinds didn’t want to slide. Something about that square edge on the Tablets… or perhaps it’s all mental
