I don't know what he means by regular classics, but these OG classics are the exact same size as f4 classics.

Spitfire classics is the same as f4 classics, og classics are conical/full

There is no way that spitfire og classics are conical because conicals are larger. These OG classics are the same shape and size as the f4 classics.

I literally held the "og classics" in a shop, they are conical/ wide cut

Well they clearly were not and you are very mistaken. Its called a classic for a reason you dyslexic bitch

Should I get a pair of Huf Cromers (the first one)? I've always liked how they look but I'm afraid they'll be a little too thin. What are y'all's thoughts on them?

Yeah im pretty sure because I can read. They may be the OG shape, but they're the same exact size as the f4 classic. Tell me how that makes it a conical wheel.

Conical means they cut a ridge inside the wheel after it's poured you simpleton. This is why other forum users can identify the shape by the picture in the ad. Now notice once again where it says "CUTAWAY SHAPE"


Look at the Lock-Ins.

Im looking for a shoe that’s basically a dunk but has no value to “lifestyle” persons is less expensive and isn’t a nike.

If this doesn’t exist than someone should just knock the shoe off straight up.

There is so much truth to this. No matter what Nike does they can't seem to keep the hypebeasts away from those things. I shoulda bought some of those orange, blue and white joints that were on clearance everywhere last year.

A new hollow indy kingpin.. Just stripped 1 last night trying to swap bushings (while taking 1 off all chill). 1 week old and I don't even fuck with smiths/feebles

Where do you get a replacement Indy hollow kingpin? I asked NHS not too long ago and they told me to get krux down lows. So I’m in this position of krux download or a thunder hollow because I can’t find an Indy hollow

Has anyone skated the DC Manteca (here in 2019/18)
Or the DC cure?
I’m worried they are gonna be too slim, Manteca looks wide around the collar and hopefully the toe box doesn’t slim out too much and the cure looks kinda slim all around.
I’m gonna order both I think

Man tbh fuck Indy nhs department. No reply and that's pretty lame they told you to but the krux in there

I talked to the local shop and they were cool about it saying they'd help fix it though. I can ask them if they have access to hollow kingpins next time I get there

Tbh I smashed the set of indy's with a hammer to see how much damage I could do then trashed them, so it's no longer an issue. Seeing Gerwer on thunders was enough for me to switch over without hesitation

I switched board size recently and needed to up my trucks, so I bought Krux to try them out.  Definitely not a fan.  I'm either going back to Venture or trying thunders.
