Learning those small, slightest of ankle flicks is a secret you learn after skating for a bit. It's why the good MMA guys do so many stretches. You can train your body in these very fine ways to move

Man, I need to get to more stuff like this. The only real big fun gathering of skaters like that I've been to was the "London Calling" exhibition a few weeks ago where all the oldheads were there to talk about the 70s. That and a Worble World premiere/Cobra Man gig. Skaters just hanging out together it really wholesome.

Well, that's like, your opinion, man.
On another subject how the fuck do you get out of / roll away from a nosegrind? I'm starting to lock them in consistently but the little nollieish motion you do to get out of a nose manual off a ledge just stops my wheels or makes me slip off when grinding. Do I just learn to cope with the slip-off? Alternately, have any of you learned how to have pop from a manual? I'm suspecting it involves being able to hold a manual in a weird tense stance with both feet moved way back

Practice the little nollie push motion off a manny pad to get used to it, you shouldn't touch your nose. Just a little push and hop type thing.

Guys I have bad news. The curb spot seems to have been taken over by a huge group of junkies. I have no idea where they came from. They're all just slumped over and covered in piss in the parking lot. We tried to skate a bit but some guys started waving a hammer around so it was time to leave.

My curb spot is at a highschool, so no tweakers or anything. Place has cameras everywhere. The custodial workers are cool too. They don't seem to mind that I've completely thrashed one of the red curbs. Maybe look around some schools for a new spot? Only issue is that school is back in session so I have to go in the late evening or on weekends.

Deck:
Quasi twin tail I think 8 or 8.1 I forget anyone else have the symmetric autism or is that just me?
Trucks:
Tensor maglites. I’m old but I can skate all day with these. Once I got used to them I don’t want to look back. Plus shinners don’t ruin my whole day
Wheels:
Formula 4 probably like 50mm by now idk it works it’s my 3rd set
Misc:
I got those no shield bearings because I’m already a meme so fuck it. They’re pretty nice plus I pop my shields off anyways because I like the look. These sound nicer than bearings designed with shields though.
Grip:
Probably jessup or whatever was cheap at the shop I just don’t like mobb it’s too sticky for me I run through shoes really fast
Shoes:
Nike ishod because they’re comfy and I have no shame. Getting really good life out of these I usually burn through the rubber in my front foot pretty quick.
Legwear:
Just old shorts because it’s hot and I already look ridiculous
Top:
Graphics t shirt so I can fit in with children
Misc:
Headphones so nobody talks to me
Baseball hat for hair in eyes
Gaudy watch for cheesy flexing
Water bottle to prevent death
Weed in case I hurt myself and need an excuse to just sit there for a few minutes without looking like a child molester

Cursed fucking nanny state hellhole. I don't know how this dickhead even managed to fall there when he's been walking around it for years. Or how he was even able to sue given I've seen skaters destroy limbs permanently and not even THINK of suing.

i actually don't really mind the zoomers too much. they're idiots but if they see you trying to do something they'll pretty much stay out of the way.
My issue is with young millennial parents. they always bring their whole family over to sit on the obstacles and shit. I sometimes feel like they're intentionally trying to start shit because they look like an innocent family mode and you're an adult male alone in an area generally associated with children. Or they'll like stand in the middle of everything to block people away from their small kids on whatever obstacle but be positioned so that everything else gets blocked. You can't really ask them to move without looking like an asshole it's the worst I'm sure you know what I mean

Eh, not really.
Smaller board = easier to get in the air but harder to land on comfortably
Larger board = harder to get in the air but easier to land on
I used to skate a 7.5 and couldn't reliably land ollies and too much of my foot (usually the heel) would be handing off and I'd either get wheelbite or drag and come off. I skate an 8.5 now and can ollie just fine on it. My 10 board is the one that's actually a pain to ollie due to excess weight, but I can even get that monster up curbs.
If you're light and/or have small feet, 7.5 should work. No reason you can't do it on an 8.5. Think about it as weight training.

Guys what do I do?
I want a couple of specific boards, but my local shop only ordered 1 of them, they already sold it. I've tried getting the owner to special order me stuff, but he's kind of retarded and the last time he forgot to actually place my order.
Also his prices are really a lot more expensive than other shops.
I feel like I am being emotionally manipulated because sometimes I skate with him and he'll say things like "haha bro when are you coming back in haha" "get your paycheck recently? I got new decks in man haha"

I just use a GoPro. Cheap, small, great specs for the price, great for high speed footage (9 onwards can do 240FPS), sturdy, lots of mounting options, etc. It's great for follow along footage or leaving set up on a miniramp, but obviously the fish eye means any sort of shot from a distance (like trying to get a sweet stair gap shot) will look super tiny and shit, and sometimes it just seems to have ugly colour compression that I can't quite get my head around, so it has its drawbacks. But for something to throw into your bag along with all of your other shit in case you want to get some quick clips, it's great.
I'd advise getting pic related as an arm, and an extra battery.

I've been skating for past few weeks after having like a 5 month break. Before that I learned just the basics like pushing, turning, stopping. Anyways today I had a pretty weird session, I've been practicing my ollies and for some reason I've been quite afraid and not really doing well with anything, which is strange because day before that I was doing pretty ok, I was nicely loosened up and I've been really going hard at those ollies. And it didn't help that before I ended my session I had quite a hard fall on my ass and I cracked the tail of my board. My question is, what was that fear? Why was I afraid of something I've been practicing for some time now? Was it just one of those days?

Style was fully on point, 10/10 swag, haircut and outfit with a really cool ass board that also looked like it was properly skated. Dude was crossing the street and I was like damn this kid must get all the hoes. Sitting there all hyped for him thinking how he's probably the biggest skate Chad in the entire city. Then he throws down and starts pushing mongo like an autist with his pushing foot being all far away from the board and awkward moving.

Just looks a bit goofy and isn't as practical. Refusing to push regular is like refusing to learn to ollie. At the end of the day it doesn't matter but it'll probably help your progression of you do.

Part-time mongoloid here. Used to exclusively push mongo, learned push regular when people online said it was "better", will swap from one push to the other depending on the scenario.
The ONLY reason mongo is "bad" is because it tends to add an extra half second it takes to shuffle your back foot into position for a pop. That's it. But then, of course, it's an advantage for nollie tricks. I've all sorts of bullshit about it making it harder to control the board mid push (not true), that you can't throw down (not true) or that it develops bad habits (don't know how you'd prove that), but the extra foot shuffle you need to do is the only thing I can think of.
Honestly, everyone should just learn to push every way the same way you should learn tricks switch. It's super fucking handy to be able to swap feet without thinking. Gets me out of hairy situations a lot and is useful when one of your legs is more tired than the other.

wheelbite way too easily
other trucks i've tried that were 49mm in height are thunder 147s with forged baseplates. these felt like any other thunder, just lower
if i recall correctly, the aces don't feel like lower aces. the turn's not the same
the angle of the pop isn't steep like a thunder due to its shorter wheelbase so shuv-it tricks where you don't drag the front foot are harder to get up into the air

correction: the ace lows don't feel like lower aces
also, they're heavy so in conjunction with the mellow pop angle, they just kind of want to stay down and not go up

You have to rotate your body no matter how you push.
>>166974
>It's bad for speed, stability, and turning.
No it's not. Why the fuck do people keep saying this? I can push just as fast with either foot and I can fully turn the board with my back foot alone if I need to adjust mid-push.
Idk, it's never held me back beyond the extra adjustments you need to do to set up for a quick pop. Maybe I just keep my weight centred more or something. I can see newbies learning to push mongo and hanging their weight back too much out of fear of their boards, but I'll have my heel on the bolts and the ball of my foot near the centre of the deck, upper body hunched over like a regular push.
Mostly it's another tool in my belt. Saves me from the odd crash or lets me turn tight frontside.

There is something about al brunelles skating which is unappealing. I don't think it's his style because despite being really tall he looks pretty good. I think it's that when he skates a bowl he literally does a fancy trick almost every time he hits the coping. The dudes that rip bowls the hardest know that you gotta throw in some long drawn out back 50s or front 5-0s here and there, sometimes simpler is better.

I'm not particularly interested in Autist Autistson, either, but he is not mid. One loss at a redundant Berrics event does not suddenly lower his skill level. Watch him make most transition larks he goes to (and all sorts of obstacles around it) his bitch, it's not mid skating. No one ever claimed he was a great street/flat ground skater either.

So now I have two sprained ankles. I can't do flip tricks because my first sprained ankle isn't letting me flick... But my brother invited me to the park and I decided I'd work on some QP tricks and just do some Ollie's and 180s. At the very end before we leave I say "one more trick" I fs 180 off a little kicker and my left foot lands just off the board THE EXACT SAME WAY my right foot did. Right on the side of my foot.
I've rolled that ankle a few times so the pain is not as bad and there's light bruising on my foot.
All summer I've been fucking up- from my knee to my ankles. I think I might need to start doing a hobby people my age do.
I have been wanting to go fishing more often....

I'm working on a trick but my progress started to plateau. Now I'm coming to /esg/ to ask if it's even possible.
A front foot late front shuv. I use my front foot to twist the board around after I Ollie, and I'm close to landing on my board, but I'm landing before I can flick the board back under me.
I'm learning it this way so that I can eventually evolve it into a pop shuve late front shuv, using my back door for the pop shuv, front foot for the late front shuv.
Tell me what you think.

I could also talk shit about this one but it's in commifornia where the skatepark abundance is so high, you can afford making a goofy design.

god I wish these were my cities concept designs. There's one near me in the UK that's been approved for works to start and the mock up is just so disappointing it hurts, just a bunch of aimless baby obstacles and an open-ended bowl. I don't know what the fuck their is fascination with open-ended bowls, but I find them stupid and frustrating. One of the indoor parks has one as well and it's shit.

That's sick especially since your current parks are straight ass. What's the ETA on that? I'll definitely take a trip up there. It's like an hour and a half from me, but I don't mind the drive, especially since there's other things to do in Ventura.

For context at least in Evansville we have really slim pickings when it comes to parks. You either have Lamasco which is in such a state of disrepair its a death trap waiting to happen or the Indoor park here which is nice but its in a really shitty spot

It was baker/shakejunt
Then dgk/deathwish
Then FA/hockey
Is that a reasonable take for what’s been cool for edgy kids? Obviously baker is still alive and well I just mean like the current most trendy. FA just seems kinda weak idk they seem to be top dog still

I just got a board and skated for the first time in maybe 17, 18 years.
I feel less afraid, I can kinda ride fakie, I was too terrified to even try in my teens. I even landed a few static ollies. I tried and tried and tried as a teen and could never get it (I think I realized a couple years ago I wasn't even trying to jump back then and have had it in the back of my mind to try that). The board is a big box pos but I threw in some abec 7 "steadfast" bearings I picked up like 6 years ago for something else, and I have some 80A Amazon wheels on the way since I grew up with and loved softer wheels. The board was a "Duke" brand, it was heavy AF but I loved how it rolled. Idk what the hardness rating was though it wasn't popular to label that back then.

right on man. If you're gonna start practicing ollies lighter trucks might help with stamina, like you won't go any higher but you'll be able to last longer. And when you smack yourself in the shins it's not as bad. It's not a huge difference but it makes more of a difference than any other change imo

lol ironically I was in the ironworkers union apprenticeship. even if I had time to skate I didnt want to be cause I didnt want to get hurt, that means you cant work and cant do shit in school. it also makes you look bad. there was one other dude in my class who skated and he got a 3 month wrist injury trying to kickflip a funbox and he got reamed out by the school, the hall, and made himself seem like an idiot to all the other apprentices.
