I like em. They feel light, work well for rough areas, and the lockin is good. I am used to a heavy board though. Go get em!

My 52 tablets feel faster than 54 classics, equally as fast as my 53 conicals, and weigh less than a 52 classic. A faster radial slim. Super into them.

Ok

This had got me hyped. 56 conical fulls are too beast for this pipsqueak, love the roll tho. Was considering 52 conical full in the 101, with the idea that they’d melt down faster. My 99s are invincible. They might even be growing. For sure not shrinking.

Do they actually weigh less than a 52 classic? I replaced some radial slims worn down to about 50mm with 54 tablets and my board felt a lot heavier, I don't imagine a 52 classic would have made my board feel that much heavier. Maybe I'm just trippin. I like the tablets but overall still prefer radial slims which still have a reasonably wide riding surface for how slim they are, and the taper shaves some weight off and makes them look a bit more natural to me whilst locking in basically just as well.

Shop had a gsd sale 45 bucks for decks. Scooped the habitat/nasa colab with all the program badges. The foil looks nice and matches the spaceship theme.

Then theories dropped their consumer deck (doodle of sphynx) which I think looks amazing. So I'm about to grab that too.

One of the reasons I got it was the graphic, can't wait to stick some yellow Rib Bones on it!

Nice one. The park near OCD shop is super strange.

Found these Grasshoppers today, Sz. 12. Not my size unfortunately, plan on selling them. Shame, always wanted to skate a pair. Don't think these guys have seen griptape.

Nice. I like that Habitat x Nasa colab
Are those decks back to the squarish PS stix shape again?

Thunder team edition 149, just classic stuff.
Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

Yeah I think so. They seem pretty square and it has a PS serial number on the top.

Gonna try out the Etnies Marana Mids since I was able to get em cheap off their site. Was going back n forth between getting those and the Lakai Protos

Shoes look totally swagless but I think they’ll perform well and last a while

In Europe they’re almost all China ones with stupid short wheelbases. Should have checked the woodshop thread. I’ve been wanting to support Toy Machine for a long time but with this and other fuckery, they’re making it way too difficult for me.
