I keep eating poo poo on rock to fakies. I make a good number of them but I can't seem to get consistent. It's just really hard to figure out where I'm supposed to have my weight so I don't slide out. Any advice for these, or perhaps a way to learn them without bailing really hard when I do gently caress up?

There are also cheap lightly used boards on craigslist. I see basic complete setups that are almost brand new go for like $40

I'm going to be an old person at a park full of young skaters as I'm taking my nephew to the park and it's more of a beginners park with shallow slopes and no bowls or anything . I'm super nervous. Just go early when no one's there imo

There's only like three dudes wearing helmets and a lot of them take some scary head injuries. Its the arms snapping in half during mundane tricks that really gets me

So I cleaned my bearings for the first time a bit ago according to some guide online. I also re-greased them, and now they spin slower than they did before. Did I just add too much grease or does it normally take some riding for them to break in again?

After ten years of on and off dinking around occasionally on a skateboard I landed a couple kickflips for the first time yesterday saw an Instagram of someone doing their first kickflip and for some reason I just knew how I could get it to work that day.

Aren't big rear end boards kinda 'in' nowadays? I could be wrong about that. I keep going up .25 inches at a time I don't know when it will start to get annoying. It's cool that there are amazing skaters who are big boys as well as the stereotypical twig like teenager. Anyways I have been skating again and having the best time. But I'm doing this cool thing where I am getting more consistent with the flip on my kickflips but at the price of for some reason landing sideways on my back foot and rolling the poo poo out of it. not great!

UFOTacoMan posted:Probably not. It will be for another reason. I’ve seen a nut come off on someone one time though in a bowl so check your nuts often I guess it doenst matter I am always going to lose them either way

any recommendations for very durable/long lasting skate shoes? I'm happy to experiment with different styles just want something that is really strong. Leather/other new materials over canvas stuff? I think my leather P-rod shoes lasted longer than the last canvas pair I got (Joslin-branded) but I don't remember. Shoe goo works for the wear on the top/side of the shoe but not so much for the bottom

I ended up buying the vans sk8-hi shoes. They seem very sturdy but I tear tf through shoes so we will see how it goes. I do feel like the extra ankle support is gonna help me out a bit next time I roll it.
