I’m a sucker for this shape, so I doubled down & picked up a pair of them. Clutch Z4, both with the cursed red top ply to ward off the superstitious.
Sticker jobs, stencils, stupid grip, here I come.
Next stop: the set up thread.

Odd to me that one arrived shrink wrapped & one in a poly bag, but what is one to do but ride these ugly fucks anyways.


Guessing they had to take one out of shrink wrap to take some pretty pictures, so you have the supermodel right there.

They do look like fun for that shape too!

Gone since 1988.  I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

What is tactics? I’m new here not sure what you mean
[close]

Oregon's Zumiez

https://www.tactics.com/
I can’t speak for the Portland or bend tactics but the original one In Eugene has always had skaters working there so I would say it’s a lot better than zuimiez. Zuimiez is skater hot topic so I would say tactics is skater target.

got me some Butter goods SCREW jeans in that super light blue wash- they are rather blue on the inside but got some super light blue/ white-ish wash on the outside!

Do you guys think some DYLON dye woud make them a solid black? i don't wanna tie-dye them accidentally!

anybody tried making kinda blueish jeans black?

Any help is appreciated!

i had some dark blue jeans that got faded as fuck and i dyed them black. it worked, they were black at first but after skating them in the sun for a few weeks they turned into that purple-black color, like a permanent marker when it dries out, didn’t look good.

Decided that Classics are too narrow for me and snapped up some Classic Fulls as these don't come out that often.

Snagged this. Not sure yet if it’s for the wall or if I’m riding it.

SKF bearings just arrived today and all 8 were smooth as silk.  I don't think I've bought a set of reds in the past two years where at least one of them felt gritty right out of the box.  Stoked on them but need to skate 'em now.

Recent haul:
8.3 Quasi Henry twin



[close]

I'm on the ishod 8.3 twin and have been eyeing up that Quasi.  Is yours BBS pressed, yeah?   There's one site in the UK claiming it's pressed by PS Stix and the top photo they used looks like it's got the PS Stix etching at the front bolts.
[close]

I've a love hate with the dlx 8.3 (of the 3 I've had I've gotten very injured...so I'm just letting that one go). Been on the 8.5 Foy, just want a trimmer 8.3.

@wrinkletusk I would say PS as it is laser engraved, but it doesn't say 'manufactured by PS' and it also has the BBS dot...so I'm going with BBS.



Also has sweet ass matching top/middle plys



I'll come back in two weeks to let you know if it's flattened out and confirm it's PS :)
[close]


Such a good clear and crisp pic of the top, which I would say is BBS.

I am going to copy this to the Woodshop thread, given I think this is the first post I have seen of the Quasi BBS board with pics like that.

Thanks again for posting such detail.

Mine even had a little 'manufactured by BBS' holographic sticker on the wrapper.

Meanwhile, I just got the Mason Silva Kelch hommage deck in the 8.75 flyer shape.... pretty nice.

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.

Also, shoutout to the homie @FreelanceVagrant for the good recommendations while I was in Austin. Bummed we couldn't get a session but anyone passing through TX should give him a shout.

Y’all are being way too kind! But, yes please anyone coming through Austin give me a shout! I’ll tour guide you around, we’ll catch a sesh, and there’s a very good chance you will see a husky transition skater get absolutely broken of trying to skate street (me).

Bummed me and @BartHarleyJarvis didn’t get a chance to link up, but we will make it work at some point we’re, I can assure you of that!

And @camel filters it has been entirely too long since we caught a sesh so we need to change that shit ASAP.

To keep it on topic: I got this heroin hat while I was working in Dallas a few weeks ago. The shop is called The Pointe and it’s in Deep Ellum. Really rad little shop, awesome dudes that work there, and the bowl in the back is an absolute BLAST. Also, it’s less than 300 feet away from the Riley Gale (of Power Trip) Memorial. So go over there, support them, buy some
shit, skate the bowl, and pay your respects to Riley.




Well I have like 9 Andy Anderson dated flight decks.

I'm not sure yet... Initially I thought I'd put it on the wall but that shape, when standing on it, it begs to be skated. The shape looks almost the exact same as the one with which I landed my first kickflip in the early 90's, just with steeper concave and more up to date nose and tail lengths.

I think 8.25 trucks will fit best depending on what wheels I use, I already have some Indy's and Thunders in that size, I prefer Thunders, and I also already have some 52mm Spitfire Classics so it will probably be that.
