Thanks, yea I saw them and just grabbed them. One of the better colorways in this shoe for sure.

Not sure if its cause I tried different grip than I usually do when I rode these but the grip of these soles didn't feel all that grippy. They also got soft and flimsy fast

They feel like they will be floppy pretty quick, but they do feel nice. Comfy and light. Coming from mainly vans they arent too much stiffer for sure. Grip seems ok.

Just grabbed one of these. Had the bigger polar sling for a while but this smaller one will get in the way less.

Couple years old, but I don't mind being late to the party

just put some gamechanger footprint insoles into some Nike Dunk SB mids. Not sure if I've just always had flat feet, but its a pretty strange feeling having these in my shoes. I can't even wear Adidas shoes like the Campus ADV because they are too skinny, but shoes like the Dunk and Blazer has always worked well for me.

anyone notice any benefits from these insoles? curious to skate with them later

I've got some, but I have mid-high arches so the FP 5mm flat insoles work a lot better for me.

Those Blazers are classic.

Came up on this OG world setup from around 1996-97. One of the first or second graphics to ever feature the 'devil man' character. Complete with Tracker 'Tony hawk' signature trucks, 59.5 mm 'demon seed' Spitfire wheels, and a set of Pig 'high octane' bearings. Paid $130 for it. Mad hyped!

One of my homies has these and I'm jealous. They look so nice after they've been skated a little.

I'm in the process of experimenting with setups and my wallet's taking a hit big time:

52mm Lock Ins

Ace 44

Big Balls (excited to give these a whirl)

Just cuz

I also just picked up a 8.25 deck from a tiny local company. Really excited to set it up.

Found them through Google shopping and ended up in a website called sneak-a-venue.com
At the end I paid 68€ with shipping.

While we’re on topic, how long your insoles last usually? I just got my first pair of fp elite insoles and those seems to mush out very fast...

Paco Supreme · « **Reply #3373 on:** July 19, 2019, 01:41:19 AM »

For kingfoams, my rule of thumb is 8-10 months for comfort, up to a year if you don’t mind a little discomfort at times. I’ve had a set in my work boots for a year that I wear 10 hours a day 5 days a week and they’ve only just started packing out in the arch

Grabbed some of the new Carpet Co. drop and a deck from the new Quasi drop
[close]

What did you grab from the new carpet co. drop. I'm sitting on multiple unskated decks but know I'll kick myself if I don't get a deck in time.
[close]

Didn't grab any decks, grabbed the mis print shirt, turnstile shirt, both sock offerings

If you are grabbing a deck you should act soon , their insta story said they were almost out

Just picked up a couple of the new Carpet items too.

Grabbed the Earth Sucks tee and the Jumbo Hit Boi deck for the wall. Love how they screened the shops name I bought them from on the top.

So I get what everyone means with bronsons now. (Raws) At first they were great like for 3-4 months then they fucking locked up. One after the other. I was bummed but not too much. I only spent 8 bucks on them during an unintentional sale online around Xmas, if anyone remembers that. Still pissed though.

Swapped them with red indys and those keep going strong. Anyways got some bones reds and also just got these f4s for $25 that I couldn't pass up. Fuck me and fuck zumiez haha

It's still the one gear purchase I get salty about. Those things (had the G3's) are utter shit. My local was out of Reds and it was either G3's or Ceramics. Dude assured me they were above board and I had never really looked into them (this was a few years ago). A week until they squeaked horribly and then about a week later started locking up. Popped the shields and a few races were completely shattered. Fuck those things.

Fuck Bronson, I had the G3 and they all locked up in 4 days. Then popped out the shields and got 2 extra days from them until they were completely fucked up.

I had a set of the cheap G2 Bronson’s and was on par with reds. Then got another set and I hate them. I feel like I lose speed fast and almost a feeling I’m dragging something. I hate them. So I’m gonna get some Olympia next or go back to bones reds or the big balls. I really wanna try Olympia.

Damn I definitely got lucky with my Bronson’s. I’ve had the same set of G2s since 2016 and they’re still going strong although I did pop the shields off recently since they were bent. Got mine direct from NHS.

I skated the g3s and raws over the past few years (still skating the raws) And they have worked better for me than anything. I locked up swiss' in like 2 months and never wanted to ride them again, shit seemed mad hype.
