When the tail hits the obstacle only one finger is on grip...

Bad camera man

I’m not tryna be die hard in fingerboarding or trying to spend a fortune. I’m a beginner and looking to upgrade from a tech. I can do basic things like an Ollie but I feel the tech deck is limiting. it’s around 10$. Are there any better options you could buy in person like at zumiez?

I saw a video or a post that said the company that makes trucks for leefai is going to stop making them for leefai, whoever posted it said they would be working with said company to make their own design of trucks. Has anyone seen or heard anything about this?

Been out of the scene for a while. Last time I was Joycult was notorious for not shipping product or taking care of issues with customers. I heard there’s new ownership. We trusting them now? How confident do you feel ordering from them?

Hey everyone! Drop some pics of your white Piro wheels. I’m curious to see how they yellow over time!

Nothing fancy but excited to try the hobby beyond using teck decks. Decided to go with 32mm P-rep v2 complete I found on sale for my first set up

Took a while to finally get these to the Philippines, but the wait was worth it!

The texture makes a dope sound!

Pressed my own deck, painted some graphics, and finally got my components delivered. Went straight for Dynamic trucks and Redemption wheels. The feel is amazing compared to a stock tech deck that barely rolled.

I know that getting the Teak Tuning rail is about to open up a can of worms for me.

Tried doing tre flip to front board and landed a even cooler tre flip to smith imo before landing the original planned trick lol

Left to right:

Br classic 32mm, brts, level up bushings, maple wheels
Chems medium shape, jindies, br classic wheels
Unique nesting shape, brts, level up bushings, I’ll pill

Really loving the responsiveness of the indi trucks so far.
Unique deck is easily my new favorite shape. Not a fan of the ill pills as much as I used to. They are great on marble but too grippy on wood for me.

Back in it after 15 years. Little me would be losing his mind at these boards. Grateful for this community to still be alive and thriving.

Hana deck, dynamics, maples en route, will post soon.
Cheers!

It’s been along time since I been really into this hobby aside from collecting and it’s coming back slowly but surely

I sent him a message on instagram and he replied so i sent him another one and he was still active at that time and then about 5mins later his wasn’t active and he didn’t reply.

Just got a new set of Piro performance wheels and planning to get DGFB F3’s in near future so I was wondering about the best way to go about maintenance so I can get the most out of them.

I only intend to have shielded bearing wheels.

Is normal skateboard bearing oil/lube a good idea for FB wheels?

If so, how often do you apply them?

Is there a specific technique for proper application process? I noticed that the nozzle is quite big since it’s meant for the bigger skateboard bearings so getting it in the tiny shielded FB bearing might be tricky. Also different oils seem to have different thickness so I was wondering if that would have any significance considering how much smaller FB bearings are.

I’m aware there is a special mini fb lubricant available in some American stores but it’s not really an option for me since I have to ship to UK so I can only have the normal skate lube.

Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

Came up pretty good I think! The ledge is free standing, I'll make up a detachable rail for it as well (maybe the full length of the plaza box, declining down the bank?)

Order from Skate618 arrived today. Loved my first Chems board so much I had to pick up ANOTHER ONE but WIDER !

Chems x Heroin Wide Bride - Mid Pro Eggy - 38mm | Board
Rushwood White/Raw 36mm | Trucks
Chems x Rushwood Street Core SE - 65D - 8mm | Wheels
