Fucking gutsy, hard skating. I like. I would've posted some more recent stuff but those vids are ones that I always liked as a youngin and stuff and popped into my head.

One week skated. Managed to make my first ollies.

I kinda like Primitive more now
https://youtu.be/JmbTln51Lzo

Aside from your 'local highschool kid who jumps straight into the tre' connotation, Primitive is actually pretty dope and in most ways better than DGK. I can relate more.

Go early or go burly: skatepark etiquette

How do you balance your weight when ollie? I keep most of it on front foot

>>1378847
good on you that you included our friend's playlist.
Even if you are that anon, it's still ok.

>>1378952
>2nd week: the locals are suspicious of me. I must practice harder. Appearing at the skatepark with a dildo was a bad idea as well.


jk bro, keep doing them and you 'll get better and more stoked.

Whenever I watch this guy I just think about how much of a vapid asshole he is and I immediately stop caring. Call me a flower sniffing fuckboi, but watching people like cory kennedy, koston, or ishod actually makes me hyped because they look like therye having fun while doing rad shit.

No he went to jail because he beat up a pregnant woman and assaulted her vehicle when her other kids were inside. He says that she said something racist to him to start it but who knows. His hijinx while on baker contributed to his sentence but that's the crime he was sent away for. As far as I know guns had nothing to do with it but he got sent back again recently, maybe that time was for guns.

>>1380895
So a pregnant chick caught his fade?! LOL!!! That'd make a great deck graphic

Thanks for joining the trip club, homie

Any of you guys like skating while drunk? I just skated drunk and it was so much fun.

>>1381163
Absolutely hate it
Same with weed

How do you guys cope with the fact that EA will NEVER make Skate 4?

>>1381170
Doesn't bother me, playing Doom and Overwatch is keeping me busy for now.
Also Persona 5 and hopefully FF15 will be available soon.

>>1381170
I have a 3ds, that's about it. Might get a ps4, kinda want to play Bloodborne

>>1381161
Lmao may aswell

>>1381170
Never played a skateboarding game.

>>1381184
Bloodborne. I got it one day on a whim. I knew what I was getting myself into.

But it turns out that I really didn't know what I was getting myself into. I thought I may need to get some BP meds

It was actually the same shit and better than the originals, you're just not a kid any more.

>>1381170

I'm actually pretty sure they are making skate 4....... I don't really follow that stuff because I don't really play games but I remember my friends saying earlier this year EAs twitter posted something saying they were working on it

I thought the board flip out would be redepmtion for his stupid van ollie attempts, but he's striking out here guys.

>>1381498
To be fair, it's hard to compete with a stubborn guy like Clint.

>>1379089
from the thumbnail my immediate thought was that he was holding a gamecube disc

>>1381163
Every time I have friends over and get drunk I end up making them come out and skate with me in the parking lot down the street. I let them use my extra boards, none of them can really skate and they just push around but I always wanna skate when I get drunk. It feels amazing

They seem to have fun too though

>>1381163
I was at my combi yesterday fading hoegaardens and hitting the deep shit. Was a great sesh.

>>1381163

i tend to go faster when i'm drunk. i don't notice the difference in speed but whatever, still fun.

>>1381498
On the bright side, he got to bomb a hill with TNT.

>>1381600
I just hoped he would do the flip out, he was so close.

Really getting into Chocolate, these look dope.

just starting to skateboard this week and HO-LY FUCK it's exhausting. i can pull off ollies kinda well but im not consistant, the most i got was 4 in a row

>>1382631
same but I dont know how to progess now

I cant get the board under me when I pop shuvit or kickflip

it is always WAY in front of me

>>1382635
im probably not gonna bother with any of that until i get my ollies on lock down

>>1382644
yeah maybe I just need to get more comfortable landing on the moving board

>>1382565
I'm not sure what point you're trying to make but
>see kid shredding park and kind of struggling
>shredding
>struggling
wut

>>1382595
They look tight, I'm starting to like them as well.

>>1382147
I skate them when i have nothing else, only for travel. Dont do ollies in em or anything

>>1382459

Dylan Reider did for awhile

>>1382635

need to work on jumping your body forward a bit , not just flinging the board. with shuvs for example you always need to move your body at least 4" or so forward (the way your toes are pointing) to land back on it. You news to jump forward a bit to keep up with its rolling direction too

when i skate, the leg im not pushing with burns. am i doing something wrong?

I just put together my first complete and even after tightening the trucks it's still possible for the wheels to hit the board and throw me off. Is this what risers are for and should I get a pair?

Tried dropping the 5 today and I landed sideways on my ankle and rolled it hard. Wish I recorded it for your entertainment.

>>1382942
This wont be a factor you need to worry about if you're just starting out. Unless you're riding without bushings the wheels wont make contact with the board while riding.

>>1382908
You're not doing anything wrong, your body is just adjusting to riding. Plus the leg you're not pushing with is in a squat position.

I tried doing a bs 50-50 today, ended up with a bruised elbow and broken spirit.

>>1382942
Even with risers, wheel bite is going to happen.

>>1382942

Wax the underside of the board where wheelbite is happening and it won't be as big an issue. You might need to do it every few sessions

How much easier do flip/flat tricks become the more you learn? Can currently pop shove it and Ollie perfectly fine and learned both kinda quick but now feels like I've hit a wall. Trying to learn kickflips and 180's and found both pretty difficult

Alright everyone, its that one skateboarding noob from a few days ago whos the bigger guy and was asking all those questions.

tomorrow is the day I order my new deck, and I'm pretty set on an Impact board, probably going for a double, for that extra strength and some bearings so I can actually skate. Going for Reds with the bearings. I wish the impact boards had more choices for graphics though, but I'm thinking I'll grab the Youness or Willow one ( I personally love the Haslam deck but it's 8.5 and I think that's a tad too big even if I have giant feet)

what do you guys think?

>>1383149
If you don't live in the sticks go to a local store nearby so you can stand on a few decks and see how much space your feet have.

Also take advantage of asking the employees questions. Most know their stuff.

>>1383123

You will eventually be able to do 180s (in all stances) absolutely perfectly. Once you learn them, learning to power slide them without popping & no-comply them will help cement your motions to the point where they are completely dialed.

Flip tricks are different. Practice doesnt make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect. There are flip tricks you might never get 100%. There are others you will. It has a lot to do with how much you struggle with learning them and which ones just work better for you. Hence why there are those kids who can treflip on their first day, for example.

For me I can do every flip trick but they take a lot of tries. But I can skate huge stuff, faster than most people, and strange obstacles and rails better than others. But even today when I see that dude at the park who isn't that great in general and skates real slow with a tiny board, I give respect because I'll never be able to do every fliptrick every time like him. People are just different

>>1383174
If only there was one close by, I think there's a Zumiez but I'm not a big fan of huge chain stores in terms of customer service in terms of hobbies (see : GameStop, Guitar Center). I'll have to take a risk I think

>>1383815
You've never played. It's literally so crisp and buttery, you'll never want to skate again.

The dual thumb stick control and elimination of Tony Hawk Tekken style combos is the true way to play a skate boarding video game.

I always play realistically and make some beautiful lines. I honestly prefer Skate 2 to 3, but 3 is the one they have announced as upcoming for next gen console. So, that's the one I have to dick ride at the moment.

>>1383848
>Skate 2 masterrace

>>1382990
Risers still give you a tighter turn radius without biting the wheel first.
>>1382942
What I did is started with 1/4 inch risers for a while until I could get kick turning down, then took them off. I haven't bit the wheel after that, even when I'm carving the hardest I can.
If you think risers can help you, go ahead and buy them to try them out. They're like 4 bucks.

>>1383983
I should add, I find it easier to do tricks without risers, but if they help you get comfortable on your board before you start doing tricks and shit, then it'll be worth it.

>>1382943
A 5 drop is pretty tall for landing with your foot sideways. Make sure you didn't break your ankle or tear any ligaments and that it's just a roll.

>>1383332
Stoked for you bro! I finally figured out how to roll straight into bowls now and it feels so great. Getting that speed up. Here's to progress!

How many of you guys smoke?
In my skate park pretty much everyone smokes (not everyone smokes weed though, only a couple of people). I'm probably the only person who doesn't.

How do i stop liking pop shuvits.
It's the only trick i can do super high and land bolts, my kickflips are mobbed and low i often land primo or they won't rotate, even my ollies are nowhere near as consistent and good.
I enjoy doing pop shuvits so much i'd rather do them instead of fixing my flips. Halp.

How do I get my back foot to land on the board when doing a kickflip?
Used to have them down like 4-5 years ago but haven't skated since then and I can't get them back for some reason.

>>1384419
Move your weight on your front foot a bit. You might start landing on the nose if you do it too much, so you need to find a good balance.

How tasteless of you

>>1384729
It's associated with kooks who buy their skate gear from mall chains.
I have yet to see anyone mall grab in person

lifting weights or doing manual labor I dont sweat even a fraction as much as I do skating for 30 min

wew

I would unironically wear one of those bomb squad suits to skate

then I could send it as hard as I want and if the board flys into my shins or I land head first I wouldnt even care

fuck having like 7 bruises on my ankles

>ey bro let's go skate like the good old times

>>1384729
When you walk, the bolts will loosen. There's no stopping it. Also why constantly touch the part where all the shit you grind through collects? The only reason you should mallgrab is preparing to hit someone.

>>1384729

The reason is because if you skate then your trucks are ground down and nasty so why would you touch them. Especially considering you could cut yourself or get metal flakes in your hand. Whereas if you don't skate your trucks are mint condition and are the perfect handle, thus kooks with perfect trucks will hold the board that way, whereas people who do skate will hold it by the board, plus it's easier to just throw down and ride when needed that way

>>1384729
Technically nothing? It was another way to hold the board and didn't get the negative connotations until the late 90s.

>>1384623
ok, now you 're overcompensating.
I 'm not against weed, as I 'm not against any substance, but quit trying too hard to prove how "beneficial" it is. If you like it, hit it and have the best time of your life, just quit doing the square thing, which is condemning smokers. Tobacco was used as early by american natives and don't give me the "not the INDUSTRY tobacco" lecture you 're literally smoking mafia grown (i.e. unregulated) shit and don't give me the "I know where MY weed comes from" bullshit either.

Price point/logo decks, most brands offer them. It's basically the deck without the Pro's name on it.

>>1386392

A shop deck from your local shop should be $35

Its good, even over time it doesn't sag or loose its shape really. Downside is that the sole is very thin, I always end up having to put in 2 insoles after awhile, and I personally don't think the tread pattern is the best but its good enough. I'd choose it over vans for sure

Shit, those are the bearings I got. They were only 10 bucks though, and I plan on going back for some Reds.

Took the board out for a spin though, rolled around a bit; definitely feels like it's my first time ever on a board again, even though I've rode my longboard just the other month. I gotta get used to pushing normal as opposed to mongo also...just tons of shit I've got to relearn it feels like. Kind of excited to see where I'll go from here I guess.

anyways, sorry for the blog post, here's a picture of the current board/set-up! All I can find on the board is that it's from some old company, Shuvit. not a fan of the 7.825 size though, and I plan to grab an 8.5 board soon, got to test a few out at Zumiez.

>>1386773

prolly gonna go to one of the few parks tomorrow

Hey guys so i stopped skateboarding when i was 15 due to a fucked up family. Anyway im 20 now and trying to pick it back up. I can cruise really really good. A good 6-8 kms a day but i cant seem to ollie well. Even stationary i can do maybd 2-3 feet and sometimes land but moving is just impossible for me. I know its not my board cause kids at the skatepark tried it out and according to them its actually very easy on my board. Do i just practice stationaries? I feel like im wasting my time since i cant do moving ollies at all. Let alone kickflips

>>1387608
unfortunately the key to getting your moving ollies down is to practice them moving even tho youll probably eat some shit
keeping yourself in control of the board is a lot different when you're covering both vertical and horizontal difference so just get used to it now
just perfect the foot position, motion, landing bolts and you will adjust to learning to do tricks while moving

>>1387631
practice rolling

put 70% of your weight on your front foot
focus on just lightly popping (to maintain control) then landing so your front foot is on the bolts

you can perfect the timing of your front foot later, but if you do that, you should be very stable when you land. Make sure you do not have more than 50% of your weight on your back foot. focus just on your front foot

As someone that had a crippling case of chickenfoot, it'll be harder to lean ollies moving if you only practice them stationary.

Practice rolling at a fair speed, jumping forward while you pop the board and turn your foot. This will give you very low ollies but you can worry about height later. Also >>1387840 this, I wasn't quick to realize weight distribution was essential when I was learning.

Same here. I twisted my ankle hard on May 6th and it still hurts a little. I've skated a tiny bit since then, but I want to try to let it completely heal now.

Without skating, I feel terrible. It's as you say, something died inside of me.

He could always buy clear grip and put it over that cutout if it's a problem.

If you can go off the ground try ollieing over a stick or something. I actually improved my technique that way, since you actually need to ollie forward instead of the ollie where you lift your deck and slam it down where you are.

Top of this thread, my guy.

Where i live the streets are pretty shitty, and i don't have a car to travel to the local skatepark which is roughly a mile away. It's a pain in the ass to skate there with my super hard wheels which are pretty small as well, i literally have to push every other second to keep moving faster than a snail. I haven't been arsed to go there in a few weeks due to this. Should i just find a bike for 50 bucks, or setup a cruiser board with soft wheels on to my extra pair of trucks and a deck? Do big soft wheels actually roll well on bad surfaces?

> 20 posts until le early le girly

>>1390698
Oh yeah, and does anyone bother skating around with a cruiser carrying their real setup with them? I'm thinking it might be a pain in the ass.

>>1390708
I'd suggest actually investing in a proper bike, they last ages and are great transport

Not going to spend a lot of money on the bike, i'm going to get a car before winter anyways. My plan is to find an used old school granny bike for cheap. I don't really have any other use for bike anyways other than going to the skatepark.

But do soft cruiser wheels make it a smooth ride on shitty roads?

>>1390741
>But do soft cruiser wheels make it a smooth ride on shitty roads?
Yes, big soft wheels are more comfortable, not as loud and roll through cracks and shit better than hard wheels

>>1390749
Do i keep speed better or is it just smoother ride? 1 option would be to just have 2 sets of wheels and bearings which i would switch at the skatepark. Sounds pretty autistic thought.

>>1390727
It fucking sucks bro, just been laying on the couch all day, bored as hell, if it doesn't quit tomorrow I'll cry

>>1390750
Just grab a shittier board to use as a cruiser board my nigga, and i don't know much about speed(i think they keep the speed better because they're big and shit but i don't know), but they're definitely a smoother ride, your legs wont feel like shit after cruising through a bumpy street with them

>>1390753
All right, thanks. If i don't find a bike for cheap i'll just make a cruiser. Too bad i don't live in the hood, so i can't just go negro mode and steal a bike.

I start skating again as soo as I can. Except I try and stick to a level that hopefully won't hurt me further. Normally includes sacking off flip tricks.
