Just skate and have fun. You're never too old or fat to skate. Skateboarding is 90% mind 10% body.

I stopped skating not long after Emericas Stay Gold video. I loved that video and the whole feel of that brand/era.
>*this is skateboarding*
Fancy Lads Is This Skateboarding got a chuckle from the title alone so I randomly gave it a watch one day, started skating again the next.
Those fancy lads reminded me go have fun so they get a free pass forever.

Im pretty much experiencing a mid life crisis and Im glad I came back to skateboarding because Im remembering my failings and also the things I want to do. And I smoked some weed which always makes me feel like some kind of buddhist monk and over 10 years away from skating, my board went from 7.6 inches to something bigger and its just an entirely different feel when trying to be flashy, but bigger is what is suited to what I used to do as a kid, but not used to using power to do a kickflip per say. Next year is probably going to be progress while this year all ive done is start again.

And reading my own self the best part of skateboarding was just having a board, even if i was seen as anything by anyone else, I didnt care because I was balanced and creative. I did my thing because it was fun. As an adult its a little bit of a chore to challenge myself.

don't think of it as a chore, i like to use skating as an alternative to doomscrolling. keeps you outside, keeps you grounded. way better use of time. dont put too much pressure on your self and progressing when you are getting back into it or it will not be fun.

I really dig gifted hater. He calls out the bewwwlshit in the industry. He is counter-culture. He is a skateboarder. I bet Geoff Rowley is secretly donating to his channel. The only liiiittle gripe I had was when he called out Steezus Christ, because Steezus wasn't hurting anybody, he was put on by his homies or even by merit of his own infiltration skills. I mean they are still making docus and have truck and board models for Eric Dressen for fuck's sake. What did Steezus do?

I've got a Sony FX30, pic related gimbal, and a bunch of friends that skate. None of them are amazing, but it'd still be fun to get put together something way over-produced. Maybe turn it into some kind of documentary or something.
I'm competent enough on a board to not eat shit following them, but want to put together a cruiser board where I definitely don't have to worry about any bumps or cracks or rocks and can just focus on the camera.
Thinking those 72mm 78a Plow Kings for wheels, and maybe something like a Landyachtz Tugboat for a deck? Open to whatever suggestions you got.

The decks are contoured to have wheel flares for less wheel bite with bigger wheels. Hence the name Fender. They're for their completes with their bear trucks and risers so I don't know how beneficial they would be with other trucks.

Those are wheel wells.
>Wheel wells are cutouts on the deck where the wheels are expected to touch the board. They’re made by either sanding that part of the deck down, or by cutting out it with a CNC machine or a wood router.
>Wheel flairs are a bit different. The part where the wheelbite should occur is raised. This is made by pressing the board in a certain way, resulting in a bump/raised bit about where the wheels are. This increases clearance by a bit too.
LY really should make that clearer on their website. Fenders have both wheel wells and wheel flares. Also consider that wider decks are more prone to wheel bite all else equal. With bigger wheels you have to compromise between turning radius, ride height, and deck width. You can use a Tugboat with 72mm wheels but there's a reason why those completes have smaller wheels than the Dinghy completes. People even complain about the Fender's higher ride height like they're doing one-leg squats with every push.

You're old enough to already know the answer, anon - you just get out there and do it. Choose boomer times (early morning) to go to the park if you want to be by yourself or in good company with other adults. Find spots locally that let you roll around alone and get the basics down, like pushing, rolling off curbs etc. Use your garage/garden/driveway whatever to get going if you really need to. Most importantly, there is ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING WAY to avoid looking like a beginner tard when you start out. You have to put your ego aside and humble yourself for a bit.

when you go to the park and where the park is will have a big impact on the crowd. i haven't seen another human at the skatepark in 10 years because i skate from 12 am to 7 am. you don't need to have schizo hours either because realistically there's barely anyone there before like 11 unless it's the peak of summer and you have a skate camp in your area.
you can also learn a lot of basic skateboarding without ever setting foot in a park so you don't need to go in as a complete fucking scrub.
also you're 30 nigger, go build a pool

Depends on how often you try. Ollies can take like a month to learn if thats all you try to do and if you ride around a few times a week youll be pretty comfortable eventually.

also in your 30s you should always stretch. I always do some squats and ankle rolling, stretch my back. Im not really sure how I warm up, but I know my ability to snap my foot down is pretty vital once you start popping. You dont want to fall and be stiff. It gets a little dicey in the colder winter because its hard to be nice and limber. I tore some leg muscle last year in february on a fall.

Ollies took me a day to learn when I was a kid. Just got a board again and it took me about 30 minutes to get them down again. I think the problem is people try to jump into ollies when they don't even have basic balance and confidence pushing/cruising.

Sometimes it's a mental barrier, i.e. getting air is unknown territory
But ollies aren't the founding block. Traditionally you want to learn how to roll into banks and drop in on vert and early grab your way into the air.

Well, you fucking stand on the skateboard and you try to stay on it while moving. Keep doing it and you will get better at it. There are some many gay ass youtube tutorials to hold your hand as well if you genuinely can't think for yourself at the start. Don't go full retard over your first board either. Get an 8.0 deck, any fucking deck from your local store, get some 99a spitfire classic wheels, get some thunder or independant trucks, whatever grip tape/hardware the store sells and you're done. That board will last you a long time as a beginner. Then you just keep riding it until it becomes easy. What order you do shit is is up to you, everyone has their own opinions and everyone is different so just do whatever you feel like (want to ollie? try it. Want to manual? try it. want to roll off a curb? try it - it's as simple as that).

nobody can predict that for you. we dont know anything about you. If you're a fat ass who's going to be winded after 1 minute of trying to ollie, it's going to take you a lot longer than someone who's in shape enough to do multi hour sessions. Not to mention a billion other variables.
Why do you even care about looking stupid? You're going to look stupid to most people. You could switch hardflip a 20 stair and 99% of people would think you're just a retard who's killing his knees just to flip a piece of wood around.

If you have even an ounce of athleticism it will take at least 2 years max of consistent skating to get good and comfortable but i've seen 12-14year olds get decently good in 6months to a year in those youtube progress vids

12-14 year olds have puberty on their side so they build muscle faster, build muscle memory faster, heal faster, and they usually have more time they can skate, and usually better stamina so they get more skating done in the same time frame. The poster asking for a timeline is in his 30s. He's not going to progress at the same rate.
>>215049
I know what you mean about progress videos in general but I don't think the kid in that video is exaggerating. That was pretty comparable to the progress my friends and I made when we were that age, and a lot of people I know didn't progress much passed that either. Seems like both a realistic timeline and a realistic plateau

For sure - I started about 3 years ago in my 30's and although I am pleased with my progress, I would be 10x better if I didn't take months to heal from slams and also not have a fucking job and adult responsibilities getting in the way of my time on the board.

What are you currently working on, /esg/? Also what's the one trick you are desperate to land (that you have actively started trying, not just something you wish you could do). Leave advice/tips you have picked up during your learning that could be helpful.
>currently working on
getting comfy on the board again after coming back from an injury, started to learn 5050's on ledges/boxes and it's a lot easier than I thought it would be. Tip for anyone new to this is literally just be confident and comfortable with your ollies. If you can be next to the box/ledge stationary and ollie forward onto it you are in a good place to learn.
>the one trick you are desperate to land
Kickflip. It's so fucking close. Easily will make my first land before the year is out if I keep it up. No reaI tip I can share about the learning process so far, but just keep in mind it takes fuck all time to learn the flick and all the other motions, but a lot of time to stick the landing, so you gotta have patience.

I am trying to learn to carve bowls and transition parks better. Get more comfy with coping on bigger transition. A new revelation I noticed is if I keep my knees bent slightly at all points in the transition I can aim my trucks my easier at the coping. I am thinking ill invest in some kneepads and a helmet.
I have kickflips pretty good and was determined to get heelflips on dial before moving to anything else. But recently if they dont click I've moved on to tres and hardflips. However I watched this Kerry Getz part recently and it made me think just get my kickflips down and screw the rest..

HSS is my favorite company. I love the halloween aesthetic, I love the art on all the decks, the videos are all good, they are a bit north of me and their decks are really nice.
I bought a mystery 2 pack of their first run of decks for $89.00 which was supposed to come with a free gift which I assumed was just going to be a gag gift. I never got a tracking notice after a week so I emailed them and they replied back super fast apologizing saying they were on a trip and will get it shipped out asap and I just replied back like sick no problem loved the vid get some good footy and the package came like 4 or 5 days later and included pic related

i really like them too and throughly enjoyed the last videos they put out, something about their team and how they skate is really entertaining. a couple dudes rip, throw down hammers and really impressive tricks. the rest are pretty chill not crazy but not boring. looks like everyone is having a good time and not taking themselves too seriously. the spots range from baby tier too obscure (well at least to me as i dont recognize to many blown out east coast spots in their vids). haven't skated any of their boards yet, the weird clay puppet graphic is funny though. it's nice to hear that they have good customer service, seems personable and like an actual team is being supported and not a corporate overload.

has anyone here skated chucks? i want to try them but I'm scared i won't like how the toecap feels. i skated last resorts and enjoyed them if that means anything, so i don't think the soles will bother me too much, im mainly worried about the toecap, and how they break in.

Canvas shoes are great for people who need "board feel" and who would never attempt a single heelflip (which would tear a hole right through). You can pick them in matching colors with your deck rails and helmet. Backside kickturns have never looked so radical.

this is clearly just not true and they make suede chucks anyways. im literally skating dcs right now which is the furthest possible from a canvas board feel shoe. i infact enjoy both kinds of shoes in different ways because im a chad and I'm not limited to skating one kind of shoe because my skating is that boring. maybe if jumping off shit is your entire life's purpose any boardfeel would sound retarded to you but fortunately I'm a bit more cerebral than that

sorry but I have to further point out how retarded your post is. The material the shoe is made from has nothing to do with board feel thats all in the sole you fucking dumbass. stop trying to pretend like you know what you're talking about when you've obviously just been absorbing stupid ass posts from these threads and regurgitating them.

"board feel" is an absolute meme and in 15 years I haven't seen a single person whose skating I could respect wearing thin shoes, on the other hand the people I see wearing chucks or gayass janoskis are always boomers who go to the skatepark to work on their flatground pop shuvs right in front of an obstacle that other people are trying to use. I skate pretty tech and thin shoes feel worse than crocs. Inside crocs your feet won't slip on the sole every time you put a little force into your kicks. I don't fear for my ankles skating crocs, but I do with canvas shoes.

I split my head landing terribly down a tiny three stair (only 1.5-2ft off the ground lol) when I was a teenager. Had to get stitches. Just get your shit together first. Stick to falling on your ass doing flatground tricks for a while. Come back to the stairs when you have way more confidence falling and have some more control over how you're gonna fall.

Straight up. And what did they get? OHHHH YEAAAAH, A VICE EPISODE ON ANDY "100% SKATEBOARDER" ROY WHO "RAN INTO" BIRDO.
Wasn't it World Industries who shafted that pro skater because he was gay?
Or how about Forrest Edwards, when Threat was done, did he end up in Mystery or Zero or somewhere else?
How many pros were let go because they weren't accumulating material? (By the way I hate the word "content", it's footage or material, there is nothing of substance "contained" in tik tok and instagram, unless you reduce yourself to a consumer of sterile canned slop).
You now cry and mourn about the death of skate shoes now that it is safe and there is no return, how many nike products have you had? Pairs, t-shirts, videos? How many skaters do you know for whom ekin SB is a normalised relationship inside skateboarding?
Remember when we were telling you that monopolisation of the shoe industry will turn, in this state of affairs of western financial strategy, to ekin ending up becoming the pillar of the skate industry, just like Powell-Peralta was in the 80s (only in this instance, the industry will be centralising under ekin instead of centrifuging away from Powell-Peralta) or just like how the Bill Gates Foundation is the strongest pillar for printed Print around the western world today? That ekin would end up supporting/financing DECK BRANDS? Remember Numbers? How do you think Primitive started? When did Nyjah start his own deck company?
They even got Hjalte Halberg and Daan van Der Linden!

I've literally never owned a pair of corpo skate shoes. I've never had Nike, NB, Adidas, etc.
My last dozen pair of shoes have been Fallen, they've been great and I love them but as soon as I mention that brand the immediate response always seems to be
>lol Fallen in 2024
YES motherfucker, Fallen in 2024. They're still making a good product, have a killer team, and I like their image and they put out good material. These same people that mock (X) company in (Current year) are the ones who turn around a few months later and pretend to be bummed that all the old core brands are dead.
People who are newer probably don't recognize, but all of this is really a culture death for skateboarding. Younger people don't realize just how neutered this sport has become in the last dozen years.

I found this perfect spot for a jersey barrier. It's on an abandoned dead end road next to the freeway. There is like a mile of jersey barriers. Does anyone have any tips on how to build one properly? I have done a bit of concrete work in the past so I know how to finish concrete but what is the best way to make sure the edges don't crack? I've seen cementall used in a lot of videos but it seems the best way would be cutting out a little strip of the pavement where the new concrete meets the old, right?
