The AVE is a perfect example, so much tech but then the mesh on the Ollie area is literally just a thin mesh with nothing under it and I had to use shoe goo in the first week or two. No 100 dollar shoe should have that big of an oversight[close]YES, that's what this was reminding me of, thanks. I saw a dude at the park a while ago ripping with them. I asked how he liked them, he pointed to the duct tape over his ollie hole. Said the sole was the best thing vans has done, but it's made pointless by the other issues. Shame cause the pro models generally look sick.[close]Designed for pros who get boxes of shoes sent to them regularly, not good for regular Joes who have to pay for these shoes out of pocket. Kalis LE shoes in grey, so nostalgic for those shoes, doesn't help that I've heard nothing but good things bout them.

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.
Anyone wear the Supra Elevate?If so, do they skate well and how's the sizing?https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0009/3834/4509/files/ELEVATE_SUPRA_BLACK_2000x.progressive.jpg?v=1564948714

The legs are too narrow for the hole in the ledge so it wobbles like a bitch.

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.

I made mine the exact size to fit in my Subaru so I take it to most garage sessions

Feels like a little suede back there in the lining. Makes it harder to sliip on and off.
