Been slowly rebuilding my skate DVD collection lately and tend to buy random rare dvds when I come across them. Came up on this one the other day, stoked!

Amazing. I have Dizzy but always wanted this one. Ever since I came across the "htkjn" video on YouTube over a decade ago I always combed eBay to see if a copy was available. It's also how I discovered Ciccone Youth.

I’ll see if I can upload a better quality of it since there’s only that crappy one. Also I’m looking for Dizzy next!

Just got these Gilbert 1's at a Mormon owned thrift store. Since they are pros with the Ultracush insole they are a half size big but for $6 I can't complain. Plus, as you can see, the tread is still practically perfect and the collar still has all of it's padding.

edit: I forgot, I also bought some clothes and took all the hangers off and hung them on the rack by register so the cashier didn't have to just to be nice and because of that he gave me the shoes for $3. Might as well just robbed them for them haha.

Reynolds G6’s. Skate great straight out of the box. Only got about an hour in then this morning but they felt great on my old man feet.

BTL, Toronto skater? I got that dream girl deck too! but the pearly white one. Been tempted to pick up one of the matte black dream hawk decks he just put out but the shipping to get them up north is brutal.

Kitchener/Waterloo - I order most of my stuff from Toronto.

The JK deck is gorgeous. No joke about the shipping lol

I wish I had gotten the white pearl. I thought it was sold out but it definitely was not.

psyched to support fellow NJ folk Dick Rizzo, that 8.12", 14.125" wheelbase PS shape is my favorite thing to skate right now. and the materials that make up that hat had me sold right away. foam brim, water resistant nylon fabric

ballintoohard · « **Reply #3460 on:** August 18, 2019, 09:26:55 PM »

Bought a real 8.25 Full SE, gripped it, and already don't wanna ride it at all. Got a pile of decks like that in the closet.

So why did you even got it in the first place?

I thought it was really close to this Generator shape that a shop uses for their decks. I also dislike Real normally, but figured the shape matters more. What mostly bothers me is the top is fully painted and makes the grip look heinous/I fucked up gripping part of it a bit.

Isle boards are fucking amazing, best deck I've ever had hands down.

Europe or America? Currently skating one, but I'm in america so idk if the shapes are the same everywhere. 8.125 Mike Arnold deck. Really enjoying it.

They really should have put the Allen & Phillips heads the other way around on that Ace tool. Makes no sense for them to be this way IMO. Other than that it seems pretty cool.

In a couple months winter will be upon me so I got some Etnies Jefferson MTW at half price.

Agree, but I’ve found out via Slap that many people actually prefer phillips over allen😳 I have bought few skate tools that were useless as I don’t fuck with phillips.

Yeah, I have no idea why anyone would like to have Phillips heads on their hardware but it happens. Still the design IMO is bad as with Allen you don’t need to press down at all like you do with Phillips. With Allen you just need to counteract the spinning from twisting the nut which is easier with a longer lever. Pressing down on the Phillips head is easier with a longer shaft that doesn’t have a long lever at the end.

Thinking about pulling the trigger on the 112, finally the price dropped here. Any comments?

Maybe because you can directly use an electric screwdriver to be lazy/save time ? I don't know if you can use such tool with an Allen head?
