Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but I bought a set of the Spitfire Charger Classics from the local today, and almost all the wheels cores were too big for the bearing to fit into. I took them back to the shop and they got me hooked up with 4 wheels that all fit but had to go through like 3 different sets of wheels to get 4 that all took bearings normally. He mentioned that this has been a consistent issue with those wheels recently. If you're looking into getting a set of these I would wait a bit until DLX figures their shit out.

Interesting!

Putting race reds or something similar in them would work.  They are the bearings with the pre built spacers so there is zero play and the wheels will work fine on that sort of bearing, as I have done this before with other soft wheels which have had the normal bearings move in them.  I know not everyone has access to race reds or other bearings like that, not to mention the thought that if things are not fitting right to start with, I would always wonder what else can go wrong with them.

I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

Bought this Adidas Silas shoe second hand on vinted for 20€. To my surprise it was completely new.


I Also found  an ebay seller who has a lot of brand new dc shoes from old seasons, maybe remaining stock. Bought this tiago s also for 20€.


So far, both shoes are great.

Not sure if it translates to this photo, but Habitat killed it with the shape they chose for the Al Davis board. 90s-ish football shape. Long, pointy nose and nice long tail. Gonna get this gripped up tonight and I'm thinking I might be sticking with this shape for awhile.


Sticking with a shape that was a specialty shape for a rider who is no longer with the company they made it for? May the force be with you.

unless hes got a stencil of the shape, chances are that this is the last of that shape. i do appreciate skating older boards, though. ride em, dont hide em......(as im slowly re-accumulating wall hangers)

It came too early, at the time everybody was talking shit as I recall.
Had them on some weird blue with yellow stripes because I love Silas but sure at that time I felt odd.
They were hella comfy

Skate Warehouse had a sale at the swap meet. Bummed I didn't get there sooner. I got there early but couldn't find the booth till I saw a gang of kids with boards.

Two Bakers, Habitat (8.25's) and a pair of Tensor Mag Lights for 85 bucks.

I can’t believe that board came out almost 7 years ago. feels like yesterday.

This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

That shape looks similar to one that element was using in 2018. I picked up 5 of the Boston world champs 8.25 x 32.1, 14.25wb decks last spring for cheap and absolutely love the shape. I still have 3 fresh decks left and one that's setup with a bit of life left in it. I was going to save one just to have a reference in case i ever diy some decks. Would love to find this shape in a 8.5 with a 14.38/14.5 wb, that would be perfect. Flip used that same shape too i think. Does it have a 14.5wb?

I got drunk Saturday and called kinetic on the phone and harassed the poor kid working there. I bought a bunch of shit without knowing what any of it looks like so when it gets here I'll be surprised. I also bought a board and a shirt from nj skateshop.

Orchard re-released some older graphics this week. I ordered a few shirts and a couple beer glasses. I’ve lived in California for over 5 years now, but I still consider them a local shop

Hell mother-hugging yes!

Got me some DECK-orations from Fabo Les in the mail. These for sure going on the next couple/few setups.
Since they’re printed on eggshell vinyl backing, I’m sure the miscreant in me will place some at the local spots as well.
Get yours before they’re gone!

EDIT: Too late, they gone!

I wanna play you in a game of SKATE for the right to continue talking shit on me.  You think you got me?
