For what it’s worth I’m about 5 sessions in on my aves and yesterday I noticed they got a hole seemingly out of no where on the inside of the foot where it’s mesh. It’s in my front foot so it can’t be from scooping the board. Suede and sole still holding up. Just wanted see if anyone else had similar issues or maybe it happened from taking a spill. Still skate and feel great but I thought they had Duracap under the mesh or something but they don’t.[close]I don't get how vans has the gall to charge 100 retail and not put duracap under the weakest material of the shoe.

I don’t know how that got past them, every person who’s had those shoes that I have talked to have ripped it in the same spot. I threw shoe goo on it but I would have been more pissed had I paid full price.

I def thought duracap was under mesh. That’s on me for assuming but just wanna say if you’re thinking about grabbing them get them on sale.

I felt like trying this out. I'll let you know how it holds up in about 9 years, because that's how long I've had my unit tool.

youre fucking FRIED if you think im gonna listen to dan corrigan talk about cariuma
Woke up early and got lucky
I got some tensor mag lights. Besides the obvious lightness, I can say they actually turn ok. In comparison I had Destructo d2s before and the tensors have been able to turn about the same without having to be as loose. This is with stock bushings vs the destructos which had Indy aftermarket bushings. Grinds feel good just like the destructos.

The only thing that sucks about ordering online on the weekend is it feels like it takes forever for shit to come in the mail.
