Just pulled the trigger on that label cardiel snuff deck, some ace lows for my main setup and I for some reason ended up with sone Bucky lasek bones wheels because I’m a sucker for the Maryland flag.

Broke my "no new gear" vow because I had to try the Dragons. I live in a rust belt city so crusty and decaying that our bridges keep falling apart, so I'm always interested in soft street wheels. The best ones I've found yet are the NFG 95A crust formula so curious how these compare.

Opted for middle ground with the 54mm v4 shape, though I kinda wish I had gone for the 56mm conical ones now. These are probably a better reference point for me though as I've skated this shape before.

Needed to get free shipping and the Enjoi wrasslin decks were on clearance for $35 so I snagged this one. Jake the Snake taught me a lot of valuable life lessons when I was a kid, and Caswell was always a highlight of the tilt mode and enjoi vids for me so it made sense at the time.

Dims are 8.25" x 31.9" 14.25" wb
Mellow concave/steep kick.

I bought this thinking I was going to put it on the wall some day but I kinda like the look of it. It's a little longer than my ideal, but should be doable. I like the taper and really like how flat the concave is, and the nose looks very skateable. The tail is slightly terrifying though. Shits long and steep as fuck, it almost looks like a twin nose shape or something. If they just mellowed that tail out and shaved like an 1/8th of an inch off it I would probably be in love with this shape. Madness has a square one with the right dimensions that I love but it's med/med and a kinda spoony mold so I would prefer this one with those dims. I really wish dwindle would start making mellow concave/medium kick decks over 7.5" again.

Anyways not sure if I'm gonna set it up or not. Gonna compare that tail with some of my steeper setups and see how I feel about it. My madness isn't completely gone because my first instinct was "oh this would be perfect for the new ace low 44" but I really don't want to buy another set of trucks. Anyone got a set you want to trade for indys/thunders/ventures/films etc?

The stickers are all an unexpected gift from the homie, got some really cool bronze 56k and side effect ones in there.

Damn these are clean and tempting. How is the fit? I normally skate Half Cabs and these look like an interesting alternative.

roommate got the bronze dc collab clocker 2's and they feel like literal bricks. seriously some of the stiffest soles I've ever felt in my life. they feel bulletproof. if i could try a pair on in a shop I might grab a pair.

Emerica Gamma (I think these could be awesome if they are broken in, they are the first model without that G6)
2 sets of Blurs Blue Bearings
One T-tool that I can leave at my girls place

Also kinda skate related, my doctor prescribed me some pills against migraine. I will see if it gets better.

Way, way too much with this junkyard.com-deal from the euro sale thread. First 3 for 2 with 50% of, then 4 for 2. Like 70-90% discount.


4 frogs, 6 alltimers, two polar, a cash only, a picture show and a quasi. One set of film 5.25, venture hollow high 5.2 and two sets thunder hollow 147. ricta 52 mm 101a asta and yuri wheels, 53 mm shanahan crystalcore 95a, dailtone 52 mm 99a, a set of bronx 101a and haze 99a, euro brands.

Since the 5 pairs of emericas i've mentioned in the madness support thread I've gotten 4 pairs of state keys, one vista, dc manual rt s, globe surplus and motley II strap.

9 pairs of stance and stinky socks, a sour tee, two dime hoodies and a jet lag bros hoodie.
I might have missed something. Fuck.


I really need to skate more.

Copped a pair of these from the sale gear thread. This is the fifth pair of Crockett Highs for me... I hope they never stop making this shoe.

They're my favorite too, feel like they're made specifically for my feet.

Got the new Leo Baker radials and a snazzy sticker to go along with it.  Glad to get some natural urethane radials in a smaller size. This shape is basically perfect if you ask me.

Bought two new kinetic shirts because I was sort of bummed I couldn’t make it to the 20th anniversary thing at 7th street. I also got another quasi egg. I’m not really sure why because I am not sure I like skating egg shapes - the proto 8.5 is the best shape ever and I’m currently skating that with two on ice for later. I currently have two set ups quasi egg on venture 6.1 and 8.5 proto on 5.8 ventures. I definitely prefer the proto but it can be fun to mix things up.

Jumped on team dragon and ordered the 52mm and some fresh reds. Decided to treat myself as I've been skating some rough streets in my new area and I'm excited to see how they perform as an all around street wheel.

I’d love to know how those Loosie pants end up working out for you! been eyeing a pair up for a while and they seem to have a good fit. plus the price is pretty decent.

Just ordered the 2 Girl decks for 80 bucks. The 8.5 girl shapes are my favorite. Something about them just works very well for me.

for whatever its worth, i ordered the ripstop ones from MLTD in hope of a nice lightweight summer pant. they have zero stretch and were kinda thick and cardboardlike as far as ripstop goes. they both got returned. would be curious to hear about the denim ones tho.
good come sausage

I was definitely unsure but after initial try-on, they seem great. Love the fit, super comfortable and loose. The elastic waist is a little weird but with a belt it’s fine. Wish the inseam was *slightly* longer but I’m pretty tall so that’s true for a lot of jeans.

Wore the shorts yesterday and loved them, will try to update later after skating in the jeans

Bro, you went crazy :D I think you are equipped for the next decade. You'd better skate a lot or as the mentioned above, just open a skateshop :D
I have only used  the 3 for 2 sale from the junkyard (2 sour, 1 baker, 1 enjoi, 1 thunder lights and 1 indy forged hollow). Now the 4 for 2 is tempting me a lot for some other decks and may be ricta wheels, but i don't really need anything, coz i have stocked trucks and wheels that are probably gonna last me 5-6 years and decks for may be an year. I dunno if it is good idea to store decks for more than an year.
