Does anyone else feel weird talking to teenagers and kids at the skatepark? like I won't go out of my way to talk to one, but I'm not going to ignore them if they say something to me. I try to avoid interacting with them overall though. It just seems weird to me as a 27-year-old.

Just hopped back on a board for the first time in 11 years. To my surprise, I can still do all of my flip tricks, even switch... except tres. I also can't ollie very high at all, and the board doesn't stay under my feet very well. My balance is bad and I feel like I'm skating drunk, albeit skating. How long does it take to get balance back? I got kind of blackpilled thinking that it might take years. Stopped skating way back when after a couple of friends moved away for college, and never returned, and everyone else became "dude weed skate twice a year but only when drunk and stoned"

I mean, I like supporting board companies that feel like an honest group of family members (Baker) or brands that have a well established image/company vision and have riders that carry that as skaters. honestly thought that GH video was one of the better ones he has made in a while. I don't *really* care, but it's a nice bonus when im buying a board.

let me give a lil lesson in economics to the grom in here. you see when you buy something, using money, that money then gets transfered along. some people like their money to go towards things they like. people who watch a lot of videos and follow skateboarding a decent amount have brands and skaters they like, and brands and skaters they dont like. obviously youd want your money to support the things you like rather than hte things you dont like! when you buy a skateboard with a cool graphic you are doing this same thing but with slightly less knowledge which is ok! you are still giving money to the things you like and being a good consumer piggie.

now that paid indoor skateparks have had a mass die-off in most places across the us, it makes it even worse. that's the whole reason skating stayed alive in my town with shitty weather all these decades. we only have two outdoor parks now, so you can't even skate days after heavy rain until it drains and dries.

well, when you live somewhere that has rain every couple of days it seems, it's the difference between putting hours in or feeling like you are always just trying to get back tricks. also extremely humid, so ac is amazing. can skate all day and not even break a sweat.

just google xtreme grip and you should be able to find it in bulk for cheap.
ambition makes their own now with rubber studs instead of metal and it's a little better imo because you can sand them down if you want less grip in certain spots but the og stuff works perfectly fine

I generally feel the same way about my own skating and never bother to film myself, but it's a bullshit attitude and people, believe it or not, DO like to see sloppy skating because it makes them feel like they could do it too. I didn't pick up an instrument until I heard Nirvana b-sides and realised it was just some guys in a room with a tape recorder.

Try to figure out what specifically is scaring you (eg; you can't see where you back foot is) and do an easier trick with the same problem on a smaller, safer scale. Do all of the shit you can already do and work from there.

>getting hurt,
Yeah but how, specifically? There are lots of different ways to fall off your board or land badly. That's why I'm saying that you should try to find something safer and similar to practice first. Like, idk, you want to do a fakie frontside 5-0 on transition, so you start with regular frontside 5-0s, then fakie frontside 5050s, then go for the fakie 5-0.

Also, and it depends on the trick, but it's a good idea to practice how to bail out first if you can, give yourself an exit strategy for the latter part of the trick. So you figure out how it can go wrong and think "if I don't get my front foot on at this stage I can kneeslide/dive out to the right". Try to figure out HOW exactly it's likely to go wrong and be ready. If you can't figure that out and are just going for a hail Mary, land-it-by-chance thing, then you go and practice easier but similar tricks or watch someone else do it.

It ain't that small. Looks equivalent to a 4 stair. But ollieing down banks is scarier than ollieing stairs or dirt gaps because if you dont make it on a bank you're going to fling out and land on your ass.

Makes a hell of a difference for landing on ramps. A grippy wheel can stop you from slipping out at full force on a bowl, but then you might actually like to be able to revert more easily out of tricks. There are some bowls I can't do sharp carves on because their surface is too slick/my wheels are too hard and it annoys me. But then my grippier wheels mean I have to commit more to a direction rather than doing little shuffles to get out of it.

Sometimes grippy wheels in bowls suck because if you grind or air and come back in at a slight angle the wheels will just catch and throw you. It's good to have a bit of slide in bowls, it's actually more forgiving

Unrelated to Dadbro because he can actually skate, but Jesus the over 30s skater group I'm in on Facebook has at least one post daily where someone who has just BARELY started starts waxing poetic about skating or posting a photo/clip of themselves just riding around or learning how to pump.

I'm glad for them and all, but do they have to go on about it so much while doing so little? And half of them have like 6 setups. People make fun of teenagers for being melodramatic, but a boomer will talk about their two weeks of skating like they're Nelson Mandela talking about his 27 years of prison.

Damn I miss the time where I was a broke teen trying my absolute hardest to prolong the life of my beat down and raped to death board, despite skating all day every day. Skating literally anything I could find and also trying to learn new shit all time, which obviously implies bailing out or landing on your nose/tail and ruining your board even more. Cracked, chipped, razor tail, olive sized wheels, griptape peeling off. Damn.

they live unfulfilling lives outside of skating, I'm not surprised they end up making it their entire personality when they first start. picking up skating instantly gives you an identity/culture/community (why losers tend to gravitate towards it and why so many dudes lose their mind during winter when they can't skate (they have no other hobbies))

i don't have 6 setups but i do have a stockpile of decks . I will get a couple when i see a good sale- or if i see something i like. Its not too bad though because i went through boards pretty quickly when i was fatter. I think i have 6 backups right now

Lol true. Pro-tradie tip: If you're doing a DIY job and getting a bunch of bags of concrete from lowes or home depot, chuck some of those expensive trowels under the bags of concrete when you put them down on the cart. They're not going to lift up bags of concrete to make sure there's nothing under there. All the concrete tools I own I've acquired like this.

What I do is I go a little faster than I would a 5050. Same approach and pop and everything the same as a 5050 the only difference is I kind of stomp the bottom down. It kinda naturally balances out too. I guess the stomp doesn't really show in that clip, but I think it's just having the mindset of putting all your landing weight on the back foot .... If that makes any sense

That's a bit excessive, but if they're literally the same size and all, sure, saves you money in the long run, why not. These guys will have completes of different shapes and sizes though. I don't know if it's just being more into the IDEA of skating than the actual feeling of being on a board, or that they convince themselves that if they get JUST the right setup they'll automatically get good.

>>130899
I guess, but they don't even seem legitimately obsessed with skating. I appreciate a boomer who loves to talk about the skate videos and pros they grew up admiring, or guys who can be really into the technical differences from one board to another, but these guys are....posers. They're adult posers, with money to waste on boards they heard were good. But they don't know what goofy and regular mean, what rolling fakie is, or the name of more than 10 tricks. It's bizarre to see people past the age of 15 like that.
