Eyeing this one but every time I put together a second setup I end up selling it so probably is a better idea to stock on boards for the future. Maybe that 8.5 first Kader pro model which just arrived in here.

This lockdown situation got me thinking of a portable ledge. Came across a portable 8ft rail for $35, brand spanking new but it got snapped up in an hour.
Anyone used one of these portable ledges before? I would be happy to keep using this post virus, there's an empty lot near my home that I could set this up away from the crowds of the park, just invite friends over to session this.

If it is the element freshpark one, it kinda sucks. The legs are too narrow for the hole in the ledge so it wobbles like a bitch.

Anyone wear the Supra Elevate?

If so, do they skate well and how's the sizing?

They skate well for sure. I'm on my first pair, have another on ice. Good flick and support. I wear a 9/9.5 and a 9 fits me very comfortably.

Yeah that one looks janky as hell, I've seen some on Amazon but the shipping to Asia would be killer. I'm thinking of getting it made locally at a local metal & wood shop that can be dismantled and snapped together.

Although it’s going to be more expensive it might be more rewarding building your own box how you want it.
I made mine the exact size to fit in my Subaru so I take it to most garage sessions

considering getting a real full se 8.25 or something similar for my indy 144s, my current 8.25 is almost shot. also looking at the primitive 8.375 for my 149s, but that's further down the road.

If you're into short wb the primitive 8.625" shape has 14" wb. Iirc 7.2" nose, 6.9" tail.
8.35" full se has 14.25" wb? Pretty standard for that width. Alien/Habitat, Baker B2 of the top of my head. Polar 8.25" has 14.125" wb..

I think 14.25" is my sweet spot, although it depends on the length of the tail too. currently got a Baker 8.25 and 8.475 which both rock, but ones a little small and the other is a little big. looking for something in the middle.

went same size as blazer gt lows. Toe space similar. I guess half down? Heel lockdown is amazing. Feels like a little suede back there in the lining. Makes it harder to sliip on and off.

I've built numerous wooden boxes in the past of varying levels of success. Back then I stayed in a much larger apartment complex so storage wasn't an issue.

Now I'm living with my wife in a much smaller public apartment, so I can't  leave the ledge out unattended. Space is also a constraint, ideally I would like to be able to dismantle the ledge and store it indoors. Lastly, car ownership is the exception, not the norm in my country, sold mine off a year ago when I switched careers.

Hence I'm looking at something light and portable that I can bring to the abandoned parking lot nearby to setup.

saw a frail g033 in person and damn that squarish tail looks good. never tried their wood but might have to for the shape down the road. anyone ride them?

One of my favorite shapes of the past couple years. I skated a few in a row at one point. It’s been a little while and I’ve really been considering getting another.

[mynameisnotjeff]

That Tom Remillard SC shape looks fun, it's almost 9" but has an 14.25" WB
Also, some Ace 55s
(Both of these are mad unnecessary with how much stuff I have on deck at the moment)

[skateandphotos]

Thinking about getting a pair of State Key slip on's the only thing is I got them in a 10 last year and they felt like 12s every time i went to pop an ollie my foot fell out, how many sizes should i go down? I'm usually a 10 or 9.5 in most brands.

[GoldenGateHeights]

Really want one of those Natas 101 reissues but at the same time holding out hope for some other 101 reissues down the line (other Natas graphics, Gino, Dill)

not really i tried some but they were hand me downs and they didn't have the stock bushings (they had bones) and want to try then again for 8.38-9.0 boards but ben definitely made me more eager, I bought ace 44s in january so after i kill them I will try the 151s again, i would go for 159 hollows but i dont dig indy right now

[moonordie]

Damn bored purchases cause of quarentine, maybe I'll get some raws even tho I'll regret it.

[funeral_tuxedo]

hopefully copping some thunder polished 147 titanium hollows if I can find them anywhere online

Are we expecting to not be able to get hardgoods for a while going forward? I’m looking at getting a set of trucks and a couple sets of f4’s just in case. My trucks are fine for now, but another month of slappies might do them in. I can’t find any Thunder 147’s, so I might have to cheat and get some ACE 03’s since the 33’s are all sold out
