probably the fastest ive ever went from contemplating to buying skate gear. homie hookup on the hat and bushings definitely sealed the deal

quasi 8.5 jake johnson (dbz inspired graphic, someone remind me what it is again)
venture beanie
bones mediums (not pictured)



not a purchase but my good friend gave me this issue of thrasher. tyshawns soty trip. easily one of my favorite skaters of all time

Awesome. Do the squarer kicks make it skate like something wider? I wanted to go down to 8.5 and got a Blue Eagle AH, but it just felt a little too skinny with the rounder kicks. It was under 32” too. Been thinking about trying something like this. Let us know when that rain lets up

square kicks always make boards feel wider imo. this deck is PS pressed and feels like an 8.6 just standing on it, compared to the hockey/FA shapes in the same width.

i cant jive with pointy/round kicks at 8.5, makes the deck feel small and dainty. only time those shaped kicks ever work for me is @8.75+

edit: the deck actually measures 8.6 over the front trucks and 8.5 in the back

I’m a fellow 8.5 quasi square shape fan. I’m skating one now and have another one ice and can honestly still say I’m jealous of this one. It’s a cool looking board.

Baker 3 deck is such a killer find! Bootleg Elissa Steamer and Scott Kane decks are going for $500 on ebay, which is way too rich for my bloody. Would pay top dollar for a Pete Eldridge Bootleg board.

Some socket wrenches for my electric screwdriver. I've been putting together and taking apart boards very frequently and the socket attachment should help keep those Philips heads intact.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll snag one when I come across it. I’ve been riding the Jason Adams 8.68 Black Label and the kicks are on the square side. Very comfy.

Just impulsively ordered this Polar deck because I've always wanted to try a football shape and the COVID-19 hard goods drought finally scared me into picking up a deck for later. I had to stop myself from ordering a set of F4s too....

Got my Fastbreak Pros from Nordstrom. They’re comfortable, sure the insole could use some work. But as someone with a kinda wider foot half a size down fits great. Flicks feel great bu the nylon makes me fear for durability.

FA Dylan Portrait board. Never realized that this was a painting and not a photo doctored to look like he was in a leather jacket. Kinda glad its dipped so I won't be tempted to skate it.

Ordered a Krooked Cromer Lil Snuff football shape. I will mention this repeatedly, but 1992-1993 is my favorite era of skateboarding shapes. (Favorite era would probably be 1989-1993 total). Wonder how skinny this is going to be at the trucks. Shape looks fun though.

I measured 8.0 at the trucks when I had one

Thanks! Its going to be here tomorrow or Saturday so I'm hyped

I’m jealous. I was an idiot and broke. I’ve been hoping for a reissue to come out but it hasn’t. Damn.

They restock these boards quite often. I got ordered this last week and they were sold out the week before i think. Keep an eye out and maybe click that "notify me when available" button. Good luck!

Ironically did that this week.
But I’m grabbing this board regardless. I’m surprised they haven’t reissued the black version of it.

Boards I've bought in the last four months or so.

I'm going to skate the Niels board and the Carpet board. Niels is 8x31.5x14 so perfect dims for me. The Carpet's a bit bigger but I really want to skate it.

Was going to skate the Freddy board but I may just save it. Same thing with the FA Gino, looks too nice to skate. The DOA Clockers Carlos Kenner pro board is a definite keeper.

venture 5.6 hollows from @Level 60 Dwarf Rogue basically brand new.

i unlocked so much shit on my 5.2 hollow lows in the few months of riding them, all that was missing was the rattly loose feel that i was running prior. my plan is to start fresh decks with the highs and then swap the hangars to lows when the wood sogs out in an attempt to beat back the madness
while cool-guying is a real phenomenon, studies show that 83% of all cool-guying incidents can be attributed to the cool-guyee being an awkward weirdo

Been thinking of that to get a couple more weeks of life off my deck. But shouldn't it be the opposite? Start a new deck off with Lows since the nose and tail are still really stiff and steep. As the deck starting sogging out get some Highs on there to give you a higher yield on your pop?

God damn it that shape looks so fun. I’m just nervous to get a board that small, but I think I might pull the trigger on it.

I just bought out the new Strangelove drop. Then Muska posted more of those dipped boards and I grabbed one for $370. Fuck me
