Landed my first kickflip. It feels better than cumming inside and impregnating a 10/10 blonde snowbunny

>>238145
All I feel when I kickflip now is pain

>>238131 (OP)
Can we learn to link in the old as well? Thanks.

Damn he's looking rough

>>238196
Yea I'm good on stretching my big toe dawg

Yes I will continue to ride my longboard.
Yes I have tried to learn to ollie on a street skate and I kinda did and no I didn't like it.

>>238202
At least get a board that you can Ollie up the curb, you guys look like faggots picking up your board when there's a curb

>>238203
I ride this puppy and if the curb is too tall to roll on, I'll pick it up. I don't care that I "look gay" to "real skaters: normies see no difference between us and but I can go significantly faster for significantly longer.

>>238131 (OP)

do your friends ever ask you for skate lessons, eee-ess-gee?
my friend asked if i would teach her tricks. ive never taught anything about skating. i'm not gonna treat it like piano lessons but i think i can coach her through the basics. kinda terrified she's gonna break a bone :(

>>238238
>Friends

I'm gonna start using my skateboard to get to the office in the morning (had it in the attic for like a year and haven't really used it)
How do I do an Ollie and not look like a poser, bros?

>>238131 (OP)
im so fucking bad at wallrides bros

Trying to order a deck from skatedeluxe. I am actually considering going beyond 8"25

>>238253
Do you mean on vertical/real walls?

>>238249
>How do I do an Ollie and not look like a poser, bros?
pre-pop, jump, slide foot up the board, full-pop, slide foot back to the centre of the board, pop again, slide both feet apart, land so your feet are on the tail and nose, don't forget to crouch when you land and stay crouched, then come out of the crouch slowly looking like it was effortless to do, almost like it was boring, don't make eye contact with anyone the entire time, especially during the landing sequence.

>>238238
nice digits. She wants you to fuck her but you blew it when you didn't make a pun about one bone she can't break

>>238253
you're probably too stiff, go with the motion

>>238254
how short are you? I can't go below 8'5"

>>238238
Not lessons but my beginner fren I guess asks random ass questions that I struggle to provide answers for so I segue into "just practice pumping" or something. He will go from getting his push down to wanting to learn how to hand plant a 2ft quater lol

I haven't skated since the mid 2000s, and I want to get back into it.
I think I found a good setup but I'm wondering how strange it would feel.
My old mid-2000s setup was
>7.75
>Tensor lo trucks
>50mm spitfires
>bones reds
being a kid I never looked at wheelbase and stuff.
This is my plan now:
>8" board
>13.5" wheelbase
>same old spitfire and bone bearings - Unless those companies have gone to shit(quickly learned most brands I grew up with are dead)
>Venture Hi trucks
Apparently with these Ventures I can change my wheelbase which could be cool?

>>238276
8.25 with 14.25 wheelbase is standard these days maybe start there

>>238263
I am 6'3"

At my local spot, It's currently being redone hopefully they won't utterly fuck it up. Let's see

>>238276
i think only the koston ventures have the baseplate w/ multiple mounting options. if you skate a lot of street, there's not much benefit to sticking with 50 mm imo, especially on high trucks.
man i wish we had one of those bump to fence spots around here

>>238285
this is the type of shit that goes through my mind every time I think about doing a new trick.

>>238285

>>238278
Are you that type of guy who learnt double flips before learning to drop in? I mean I rode a 7.75 when I was 13 because it was 2006 and shit but 8.25" is not wide at all

One time I did a perfect tre flip up the euro gap and only one person saw it and was amazed. 5 years later I saw he was homeless and let him shoot fentanyl in the back of my car, shits fucked over here guys

You guys ever start your own company or brand or have a crew name? Our shit was prophet da posse, we bit the piss drunx logo

>>238293
My friend tried to make it a board brand with handmade decks, he got em in the skate shop but it failed

>>238143
sick
anyone itt battling a trick rn? I've been trying to fakie flip a gap and its been eating me up ive alr made two trips out to the spot (good 50 mins away) if i dont get it on the third try i might cry, speaking of might go back tmr but im stalling fuck

>>238295
How bigs the gap

>>238131 (OP)
Sad

>>238300
total MILF domination

>>238291
No, I barely flip my board. I did start with freestyle however. So my boards were around 8-8'125, and sometimes 8'25. I even had a freesryle board

>>238300
Fuck me, proper business intelligence...whatever happened to breaking the rules?

35 yo old dudes and teen girls what a good mix

I'm finna go to the skatepark at 5 am tommorow I'm tired of being surrounded by kids

Have any of you been called unc yet?

>>238292
>let him shoot fentanyl in the back of my car

I posted about starting again two threads ago but not having skated since 2011, I am a few weeks in after spraining my ankle and it feels good. got some shitty kickflips down, can cruise around freely and trying to relearn my shuvits. my favorite trick (fakie frontside bigspin) isn't there yet, but once I get that I'll feel great again. couldn't believe I put it off for so many years and also glad that it's acceptable to use bigger boards these days lol. though I am sad that emerica is dead but gonna save up for those reynolds new balance like a proper old fuck

I wanna go to Colombia to hang with David and beebs

lol rainbow. everyone been aping alva and is equally faggy, getting old makes you honest as fragile

>>238295
Fakie flip is such a dope trick down anything. Hope you get the clip

>>238295
I've lost my flip to manual it's been very frustrating lately

>>238302
freestyle tricks are silly but so much fun, I still do flamingos every once in a while

>>238300
there are fewer kids but they go way harder than we used to so things are fine by me

>>238325
Bob Burnquist is heterosexual though??

>>238322
>though I am sad that emerica is dead

What? They only released Made in Emerica part 2 a couple of years back

>>238298
its a volcano planter and the length is a lil longer than a board like pretty easy for it to swallow your boardbut not too crazy height
ne ways i just fakie flipped this curb today for practice

RIP OZZY :(

>>238295
Based fakie flip enjoyer. Hope u get it homie

Battling fakie heels and varial heels. I just keep feeling unstable during the setup. I think my bushings might be cooked

I'm battling just going to the skatepark it's kinda far

>>238332
>a couple of years back
Made 2 was released in 2016 anon...
This really shows how out of touch you guys really are

>>238333
the gayest part of this webm was the lack of pop
get your shit together

>>238333
Pretty cool and checked

>>238364
Oh no, so out of touch...

I'm 230lbs am I even able to start skating?

>>238392
I would try to lose those 30 pounds first

>>238392
That's fine

>Girl Skateboards
>no actual girls, but does have a tranny
Gross.

>>238383
?

>>238392
The more important question is how tall you are with that weight

What's this trick called?

sup /esg/ I am 33, 6ft, 300lbs with an 11 shoe size. I want to start skating because life is short and living is fun. Any board suggestions that would fit my size?
>inb4 lose weight
Trying, thanks for the motivation.

>>238420
I've been fatter guys skating(like 350+). The guy can ollie and shit to

>>238421
seen*

>>238421
That's rad. Have any board suggestions?

>>238423
big wide boards are the trend, but I have no clue about them, I still ride 7.75 and 50mm wheels.
try here
>heroin.myshopify.com
these guys sell the gross big boards

>>238423
nta I'm 6' and wear size 10.5 shoes, I use an 8.5" deck. Some like to go wider, I think that 8.5" is good. Once you start working on board control you'll be mostly standing on the skinny middle flat part anyways, any deck width is fine for that.

>>238424
>>238425
Thanks lads. I'll head to my local shop this week and see what they've got.

>>238413
What are you ?ing me for? That shit was sloppy and those pants are three months early for a Halloween clown costume

>>238333

>>238427
Post some clips yourself

>>238427
how was it sloppy i did pop it i even boned it :(

>>238333
I know ur a man cause no woman can trick like this

What are some good 54mm wheels that are cheap? I don't want to spend $100 on forumla fours

>>238430
I don't skate to film myself like a whore, the only time I was on camera in my 15 years of skating was when some faggot taped his cousin's very mid game of s.k.a.t.e. with me

>>238439
formula fours will last you 5 years, cheap wheels will last you 5 hours (if not less). If the bearings are still snug you don't need new wheels anyway

>>238442
>I don't skate to film myself like a whore

>shit wheel advice

It's pretty clear you've done your research in all your years of trolling, it's also clear you don't skate.

>>238452
that medium_FatNerd.jpg unironically goes hard

>>238452
There are only three valid cases in which you should change your wheels. 1) you want to try a different size/hardness 2) you bought cheap wheels and have a flat spot 3) you rode your wheels long enough for the bearings to move around in their hole. Anything else is bitch ass consumerism. I went through 25+ boards and 10+ sets of bushings but have only needed to change my trucks when I broke them (three times) and my wheels four times. I believe I've only needed to change my hardware twice. You probably never skated on different continents.

>>238455
I've skated in different countries, and although your reasoning is valid, wheels deteriorate over time without flat-spotting necessarily. They tend to cone.

>25+ boards

lmao, didn't I say you're a troll?

>>238464
That's why you rotate every once in a while (inside/out/front/back). I don't know about that figure, maybe it's less, but 2 boards a year is a reasonable estimate when you skate often enough. I still can't do 360 flips but fuck me if I don't skate

>>238442
timpool

>>238442
>formula fours will last you 5 years
My last 54mm set lasted a little over a year and they were almost down to the bearing when I swapped them out

>>238417
The Final Solution

it was a floppy dick kicky, that other anon is right, filming yourself is for trans, gay and non binary skaters.

What's the farthest u travelled for weed, I'm bout to drive five hours to get some from the dispo, I live in a illegal state and don't know nobody
