Due to them getting some love on here recently, I decided to order a set of Mini Logo 8.38 trucks. I've been skating Thunder Team high 149's. My backup set is Krux 8.25's but I've noticed they just don't seem as responsive. I'm looking forward to trying the ML's out (when they arrive)

Dumb question maybe, but what's the use for a bearing press?
[close]

Inserts the bearings/spacers without putting any pressure on the inner race. When you use an axle or a Bones bearing tool all the force is placed on the inner race which pushes/pulls on the cage which can loosen the tolerances and can damage the cage, balls and raceways etc. Has a bearing puller as well which pulls them straight out, no twisting or torquing.
[close]

Won't all this and much worse happen when you go skate for the first time though? 🤔
[close]

not if you don't land primo. or do slappies. or take any impact.
honestly though, I'm a little jealous. I wish I had a bearing press. Getting this last set into some radial slims hurt my hand, using the tried and true truck method.
just googled it. $50. while looking it up, the wife looks over, asks what that thing is. The noise she made when I explained to her made it clear she thinks its ridiculous. "what?? laughing. do it the old fashion way"

So what, just flat ground mannies?

yeah definetly true to size for me.....when they are all new i felt like i had the heel slipping going on (might be due to being really stiff cause of the foam midsole) but after a while that stopped. i usually get 3- 4 weeks out of a shoe. these felt super good for 2 months now!

mailman just dropped the KB ones i ordered!

Bought the BA Dawg Shit board. I think it's hilarious. If you grew up when and where I did, Top Dawg shirts were big with little Northerner dudes that liked to try to fuck with skateboarders.

HangtenNoseblunt · « **Reply #2622 on:** July 14, 2018, 10:48:16 PM »

nice i think thats the coolest one of the latest antihero drop, along with the grant board

was feeling nostalgic and picked this up off ebay

I went to WAR with my mom over this backpack

I remember getting the CCS version of this backpack and simultaneously feeling excited to have a new backpack yet fully aware it was the poor man's version. Fortunately for me, I'm not really a man anyway so it worked out.

I always get excited when I see there's a new BC release cycle, but then rarely find anything I could afford or pull off. Those hats did look good, but I'm not a hat guy so I had to let 'em go.

Bought one their lover tees in blue and I have to say the quality is amazing. The t-shirt even smells really nice and it's made in LA if it means anything.

I used to think they looked crazy, but I kept watching Nick Boserio footage and he made me really want a pair. They’re pretty loose but super light. Perfect for summer here.

You're welcome (to your wallet)
I have these, but with drawstrings. Doesn't get more comfy than some thin linen. $24 bucks and there are usually sales.

edit: These also have the waist drawstrings. I'm gonna buy 2 more pairs.
