Thanks. Between all the little thing I had been putting off buying for the past several months, it's already time to dial back the spending for a while.

I just got a new job with a mid-five figure pay raise so I threw off the shackles of unemployment austerity and treated myself to a pair of those new anodized Ace AF-1s, a set of Mini Logo bearings for some cruiser wheels I have, and new hoodie to replace my collection of threadbare ones, and a set of Bones Swiss bearings to keep on ice until my main set finally shits the bed.

Congrats on the pay raise! Just got my first check from my new job and went a little buck on the sales too.

Edit: AF1 Low as my first pair of Ace trucks,

Reading about yall getting fresh gear kinda satisfies something in me so I don't buy unnecessary shit. Thank you all it really helps haha.

Damn I wish I could get vicariously stoked on other peoples gear purchases, I just get bad FOMO. I did manage to limit my spending to some clothing needs and not the ever expanding stack of decks I have on ice. 

[rocklobster]

Seeing @tom and his stack of VX decks makes me feel like I should get a stack of VX decks....

[Cuban_Lynx]

Haven't bought it yet, but I'm hella hyped on this "Porkchop and Coffee" board. I still use 'noeggroll' for a bunch of passwords, haha.

Polar hipsack 'sport'

Waiting on the shoes! I spent too much in this recent sale (but such goood deals!) but I sold a couple of old (practically new) shoes recently so that evens out right

this isn’t the thread to gloat about getting a “mid-five figure pay raise”, go pay for stuff full price at a local shop and leave the deals for the poor and working class gear hoarders

[apport]

oh wait nevermind i thought this was the sale gear thread, at any rate you better have paid full price for everything purchased

[MysticalTypeExperience]

Went a bit apeshit on Memorial Day sales.

5 4 x Enjoi “blanks”. Very minimal graphic that will be getting the sticker treatment.

And not really a skate thing but bought with skating very much in mind, a therapeutic muscle gun.

Used it 20 mins pre skating and my legs get young all over again

[Ok]

Which gun?
Gentle slap reader may notice that anything that is harkened as a fountain of youth, instantly has my attention. So dusty.

Snapped my fibula in February and had to have surgery. This whole time I've just been itching to skate, and watching skate videos and reading too much slap. I just kept buying way too much gear over the last few months which did help push off some of the depression of not being able to skate or do anything. Luckily I was able to get out and push around a little last weekend, and think I'm pretty close to being able to skate again. I did get good deals on a lot of this stuff though.

A random assortment of 8" boards. Hyped to try the Breana Girl shape. The UMA board came with Pepper Grip too so that'll be fun to try after skating nothing but Jessup since I was a kid.

Some Lakais including a pair of non skate ones. Es accel slim plus. Es Sal Barbier reissues (ebay find). A pair of HOURS (bought as a chiller but they do feel good).

Spitfire F4 52 101a. First set of Spitfires since I was probably 14. Been on Bones STF for years.

Royal Ultra Light 139. Haven't had Royals in over 10 years but you guys seem to like the new ones so I'm gonna give them a try.

Bones swiss and some Diamond P-rod hardware (I just liked the look of the light blue bolt)

Not picturing a bunch of clothes I bought as well.

Solid stash there, especially the Habitat, Royal and eS Accel Plus, rode a pair a few months ago and reminded me why I love a solid cupsole like that. Kept it's shape through 2 months of intense sessions and only broke out the Shoe Goo on week 3. Vulcs are feeling too floppy for me right now.

Sounds painful, hoping for a 100% recovery, and that is one sweet collection you got there

Nice haul. Hope the leg gets back to normal.

This is your first set of F4s ever?

Good that you bought Swiss now, apparently the prices are set to increase (at least in Japan). So that might affect your part of the 3rd rock as well.

Thanks guys for the support. Been a rough last few months but it's almost better. PT has been a blessing. And yup first F4s ever. Skated Bones STF for about the last 10 years. Before that I pretty much just skated any wheels I could get my hands on.

[white guy in a durag]

Finally, after years of searching, I finally found 58mm Conical Fulls. Also, got the Jeff 60s.

First since the start of 2020 I think for the Conical Full 58mm in 99 duro.

I know a lot of people have been looking / wanting them.

Those 60mm 97 duro wheels should be good - right size for the shape and duro.

[TastyBurrito]

Copped one to skate seeing all the AH shaped boards in my local go quick. Looking forward to trying this shape out.

I’m thinking about it too.

I bought the regular 8.5 and a hoodie from that drop.
