My only goal for skateboarding is max effort for minimum payoff. With this in mind the nose slide roast beef yank to crook is born

Howdy, I can get the front truck up consistently but I’m having a hard time getting the back truck up.

I filmed my most recent attempts, would love y’all’s insights. I numbered each clip for easy reference. Sorry if the camera zoom makes it hard to analyze, my phone was changing the zoom level on its own as I filmed.

Setup:
8.5 popsicle Tree deck
8.25 Slappy inverted trucks
1/8” soft risers
53mm PP Nano Cubics 93a

Clear coat spray on the curb + gulf wax

🙏🤙

Freshpark Grind Rail? [39YO]

3 Upvotes

I'm looking for a rail to add to the garage. The fresh park one looks interesting with the rounded sides, but I'm not sure about that 4ft length.. anyone skated one of these? If so, how do you like it? I'm split between this and the classic element flat bar (which is double the price..)

Looking for input on a new setup [46YO]

2 Upvotes

20+ years away from skating for an abundance of reasons, but my 11yo is getting into riding parks. I'm over standing around watching. I was formerly a ramp/bowl skater in so cal and hawaii, now in utah. The industry has come a long way and I need some thoughts on a new setup, let me know what you think:

9-9.25 deck, longer wheelbase, so many decks in so many price ranges (leaning budget friendly)

Ace AF1 66 trucks (maybe 55's?)

60mm Powell Dragon 93a or Spitfire f4 58mm 97a

Thanks for your help!

Shoes [46yo]

9 Upvotes

These days, I push around at most, but my style is still that of my heyday, the mid 90’s.
Back then I wore a lot of Airwalk, Half Cabs, I had Rowleys at one point…

I’m looking for shoes. I don’t need “skate shoes” per se, but I need that vibe still. My wife has me looking at Saucony and New Balance but most of those either look like I’m running a marathon or giving in to diabetes.

Suggestions for cool, casual skater shoes with more support than my $12 Amazon converse knockoffs.

Thanks.

My birthday is coming up soon and I would like to ride a longboard. I've never had one, so was wondering if y'all could help me out by recommending one to me.

Peace.

Best advice for someone getting back? [31YO]

6 Upvotes

I skated from 00 to 04, so the experience is basically, a kid and a driveway with a homemade take of ramp and two rails my dad got made at his work.

So, 22 years later what should i start with? I have been thinking about just skating around the nearby area and just cruising.

I have ridden everything from Black Knights to Dogtown Bigfoots. But I recently when up to 10” and have been having fun. However, I bought this (A side note, I payed 100 dollars for this deck 10 years ago and sold it for a couple hundred. But I got this for 38 dollars. Did Supreme fall from grace, because I know it isn’t Gonz that did) 8.38 and at first I felt like it was way too small. Although I remember going from a 7.75 to an 8.25 and thought the 8.25 was huge. Nonetheless, I skated this very briefly and tried to skate my 10, but I can’t go back up to 10”. It feels huge!
