[rocky vector]

Yes sirrrrrrr

[hushed loom]

Thick padding!

[hushed breach]

That's beautiful 🥺🌊

[blissful wing]

Reposting in the right channel, check this out 😆

[elder atlas]

Congrats man! That's awesome, are you going to wall mount it or skate it or any other plans?

[hushed breach]

It's beautiful!

[elder atlas]

Thanks! I love it. I almost don't want to open it but I do want to mount it to the wall

[hushed breach]

Hell yeah

[slender python]

Never skating in the rain again

Slipped and ruptured my spleen. Had to get it removed.

[elder atlas]

Oof! Get well soon, hope you make a quick recovery

[rustic kite]

Damn, I'd want to ask how, but hope it heals soon dude!

[lucid condor]

Feel better!

[frosty light]

Wicked sunrise

Gorgeous sky

[hushed breach]

Cotton candy skies

[uncut solstice]

Same board, same shirt, 8 years apart (2015 vs. 2023)

[hushed breach]

Oh hell yeah

[uncut solstice]

ty homie 🙏

[rustic kite]

New shoe day

[hushed breach]

Oooh those are sick!!

[wraith nimbus]

what a throwback with those shoes oooo

[hushed breach]

They're so pretty!

[rustic kite]

Hella comfy too. Just skated to break them in and see if I'll keep em just as off-board shoes, but they do technical tricks surprisingly well.

[hushed breach]

That's awesome!

I'm slowly learning tricks. I've been practicing my tail drags and my hippie jumps. The hippie jumps are pretty easy. Tail drags are getting there.

[rustic kite]

I didn't get very long to break them in though haha

[hushed breach]

Looks like they broke your board in pretty well

[rustic kite]

LMAO 💀

[frosty light]

Be getting outta here in an hour and a half

[hushed breach]

That's beautiful!!

Have fun amigo!

[hushed breach]

<@&823677264931323940> fake nitro scam link

[lucid condor]

Agent orange merch table. If anyone wants lmk asap! I'll buy for you and ship it to you

[hushed breach]

Those boards are siiiick

I don't listen to Agent Orange sadly

[dry halo]

Both of these decks and grip for 70$ lets gooo

[rustic kite]

ayy no way, that's sick

[uncut solstice]

Let's go

[lucid condor]

Hell yea enjoy

[rustic kite]

Hard

[lapis sky]

i found a very similar board to my skate 3 board

cant find anything that relates to this so i chose this chat

this is the one i have in skate 3

its a real life board but its out of stock :(

[lapis sky]

so i found this one in stock

pretty similar so im gonna make a custom board once i get the money

[rustic kite]

Ayo is that the grandstand behind the megapark bowl irl?

[ornate bronze]

🤣

[hushed breach]

Bro found Megapark in real life. Wait til Zek hears about it

[hushed breach]

hella W!

[sharp dock]

yeah looks sick! I'm getting a baker board for my birthday today, it's gonna be first setting up my own board!

[hushed breach]

Guess what I've been practicing

[lucid condor]

Uhhhh, photo skills!

[frosty light]

Been putting your Ishods to use, apparently

[hushed breach]

Rail stalls!

[hushed breach]

Yes sir! The laces may get ripped up eventually sadly

[frosty light]

Sadge

[rustic kite]

Doing em the street way or the freestyle way?

[hushed breach]

Idk the difference yet. Just practicing one of the easy ways. This one:
https://youtu.be/x6qufKLrcYo?si=dtmHjEgfH3wi66As

[fading breach]

Put some patches on my skate shoes to hopefully slow down the wear, I’ll probably get thicker shoes next time cause these wear down real quick, any suggestions?

[hushed breach]

You could always tape your socks. I've never done it but my friends have

[hushed loom]

Your next pair look into sued or leather instead of canvas. Lasts a little bit longer. Other than that, patches and shoo goo is basically the way to go like you already are doing

[fading breach]

Aight sick thanks

[hushed breach]

Hey look! A cool pin!

[lucid condor]

Lucky!

[hushed breach]

Did yours not come with any?

[lucid condor]

I didn't get mine yet. You got yours really quick!

[hushed breach]

I did!

[lucid condor]

Hopefully mine arrives this week!

Actually ik it will I got the shipment noty

[elder atlas]

Nice!!

[hushed breach]

Woohoo

[young abyss]

Anyone tried those quantum bearings?

I gotta know if they’re worth 60 bucks

[hushed breach]

To me, no bearings are worth $60. I use Bronson G3s and they are the smoothest ride for half the price.

[frosty light]

Added a lil bit of colour to my outfit this afternoon

[elder atlas]

That beanie is so sick. I hope I find one someday. Doubting to go bald soon so I'm going to need beanies for winter days lol

[hushed breach]

Driiiiip

[young abyss]

I thought about those, but i was also looking at bronson raws

[hushed breach]

also a solid choice

[young abyss]

Good to know, thanks fam

[young abyss]

Yooooo i was so happy when we got the new catalogs

Hoping to get that new slayer collab

[frosty light]

That’s a vibe
I haven’t had anything put on my walls since I moved out of my old place, I had old THPS posters on the back of my door back then

[hushed breach]

How y'all feel about these SBs? These are the ones I want. I may be able to cop em in February.

[frosty light]

The Albino & Preto’s are super cool
They have hidden tear-away layers that reveal some nice colour the more you tear them up

[hushed breach]

That is so sick! I didn't know that

[frosty light]

It adds so much character, doesn’t it?

Especially paired with the extra laces

[hushed breach]

Tons!

[frosty light]

I love the light blue under the toebox

[hushed breach]

It's beautiful

[elder atlas]

Wow that's dope, are there more Nike's like that?

[frosty light]

Actually, yeah, there is
The Jarritos Dunk SB’s have some hidden layers

So do the Travis Scott SB Dunks

And the Froskate SB Dunk Highs, but I can’t find a good photo of the hidden layers on those

@elder atlas

[hushed breach]

Sick

[elder atlas]

Dope!

[elder remnant]

yo, I'm wanting to get into traditional skating as I'm more of a longboarder so I know all about brands in that area but need some help for what are good brands for building a trick board, any suggestions?

[long venture]

For decks element, enjoi, baker, creature, most the big deck brands are solid just personal preference for shape size and concave, trucks independent, venture, tensor, krux, and thunder ive heard are all solid, wheels id say spitfire or bones, bearings id say some bones reds

[ornate bronze]

what the guy above me said but size of the deck depends on your height and weight imo, if you’re 5’10+ anything below 8.0 would be wacky

[elder remnant]

yh ive got an old deck which is i think just under 8 and it feels way to skinny

thanks for the help, much appreciated

[frosty light]

Yeah I feel you
I’m about 6’0 or around that mark, and my 8.25 feels just right for me when I stand on it

[hushed breach]

Woohoo!

[calm badge]

🤷‍♂️🙏

[elder atlas]

Nice!!

[hushed breach]

Ayy congrats bro!

[long venture]

Found this ole shirt i used to wear as a kid, goes hard as hell

[frosty light]

Hell yeah my man! Well deserved

[ornate bronze]

thank you 🙏

[fallen oasis]

they're okay but they aren't sbs

[hushed breach]

They say SB right there, Nik

They have the fat tongue, hella padding, and all the suede a boy could ask for

[fallen oasis]

the tongue isnt

its like

[hushed breach]

It looked like ot

[fallen oasis]

a hybrid

[hushed breach]

Interesting

As long as they're more snug than my normal dunks, Im happy.

[fallen oasis]

they look like pro sbs

[hushed breach]

Idk what that is

[fallen oasis]

a type of nike dunk

did u win them?

[hushed breach]

Nah

I was window shopping for the future

[fallen oasis]

ah

whats the price?

[hushed breach]

Looking for something I'd wear and love

[hushed breach]

Last sale on StockX is $203. I'm not getting a new pair of shoes for another 4-6 months, so it'll probably drop

[fallen oasis]

pretty good price fr

get them

but dont cut them up pls

[hushed breach]

I won't cut them up, but I'm gonna skate in them

They'll last as long as I can get them to

[hushed breach]

4 generations of EA Skate decks!

[lucid condor]

Jealous!

[hushed breach]

Me too

Wait 🫸

[lucid condor]

rude

[lilac sapphire]

Bout to open this beast. Dope got my name tagged tho!!

[hushed breach]

Ayo!! Mine was too! I love Jeff's doodles. I cut them out of the box and keep them

[lilac sapphire]

Hell yeah. Custom 👌

[hushed breach]

Oui

[lucid condor]

Why I never thought of that...

But still jealous of you both!!

[hushed breach]

❤️

[hushed breach]

You'll have your chance to get one amigo!

[lucid condor]

In no rush, I just want yall to appreciate it!

[hushed breach]

I'm just happy I won one. The year 2 was in a care package, the year 1 was off eBay, and thankfully this one was a win!

[hushed breach]

I wasn't in a rush either. I just saw my chance and took it

[lucid condor]

Yea for sure I'm glad you got it!!

[elder atlas]

Wow that is so sick!

[hushed breach]

Thank ya

[pure coral]

It’s peak I’m afraid

[hushed breach]

woohoo!!

[frosty light]

Finally got mine
Sick 18th birthday gift, for a good cause

Plus two pairs of shoes from my homies at Fast Times down under

[hushed breach]

🔥🔥🔥

Ishods!!

[frosty light]

I put some stickers up in my wardrobe that I received with my shoes
Support your Local, yall

[timber sedge]

You’re lucky to have a local!

[frosty light]

I’ve actually got two (maybe more than that)

[hushed breach]

I have two I believe. I went to one for some risers when I was building my board

[timber sedge]

Got none here, closest is probably an hour and a half away.

[frosty light]

Crappy image quality, but these look so great on foot and laced up

[hushed breach]

Cleaaan

[frosty light]

I’ve got some spare cash from my birthday, so I’m looking at some shoes, and these are what interested me
What do y’all think?

[hushed breach]

I'm a sucker for NB Numerics

[frosty light]

Budget friendly too
I’ve got $150 to spend, and that pair of 306’s would still leave me with $50 left over to buy a shirt or something, which would be nice

[hushed breach]

🔥🔥

[timber sedge]

NB 306's

[frosty light]

Just found these as well

[timber sedge]

I still think the 306's. Either those or the purple Cons

[frosty light]

Yeah, the lilac One Stars are really appealing

I don’t have any shoes with unique colours like that

I think some personal favourites so far out of everything I’ve show would be:
The red Aloha’s
The Heitor Forums
Both the One Star Pro’s (Lilac and Teal)
And the 306 Numeric’s

Not in any particular order

[timber sedge]

Not really keen on black soles myself, and I like a nice slim silhouette

[frosty light]

Yeah, I get ya
I’ve only recently started liking them, especially on shoes like Samba’s
But if I had to nitpick a little, if there were three stripes on the Aloha’s that were also black instead of a full all-round scarlet, they would look way better

[timber sedge]

For sure, the all red colour block with the black looks a little off. The contrasted stripes would improve that

[frosty light]

Yeah, definitely

That’s why they look good on Sambas

The bright white contrasts the black/gum

[hushed breach]

My Jaws Homoki hat came in today

[lucid condor]

Nice!

[marble lintel]

It finally arrived and its so beautiful like wow !!!

[hushed breach]

WOOHOO!!

[hushed breach]

Congrats!

[frosty light]

According to a few friends of mine, clear frames apparently suit me

[lucid condor]

Just gonna leave this here

[dusty wasp]

Wait! You have this?!

[hushed breach]

Damn right they do bro

[hushed breach]

Wait this exists?!

[frosty light]

Woahh!! That is awesome!!!

[frosty light]

I don’t even need glasses too lol, they just look nice

[hushed breach]

Reading glasses can be to style or to use. Clear frames work too

[frosty light]

Yeah, I was thinking of getting blue light glasses

With clear frames

[lucid condor]

I do and it does

[frosty light]

It’s so cool! How limited was/is that?!

[hushed breach]

I should as well. Clear would look great on me as well

[hushed breach]

Dude from my estimate there has to be at least 4

[frosty light]

They’re cheap too, $12 AUD on Amazon

[hushed breach]

I'd have to try some on in-store, take pics, then choose a pair later so my judgment isn't clouded

[frosty light]

Yeah, I don’t exactly know any stores that sell em either

That’s why I checked Amazon

[lucid condor]

Not sure, seller claims 125 but i think way less. Will confirm one day

[hushed breach]

I have quite a few stores nearby. Walmart is one of them.

[frosty light]

Yeah, I found a site that seems like their stuff is quality

[hushed breach]

Rad!

[frosty light]

Birthday dinner fit
With the Ishod’s in full view for @hushed breach

[hushed breach]

clean af bro. love the red shirt with the red and white kicks. fit 10/10

[frosty light]

Jordan shirt too, so it pretty much matches, since Ishod used to play basketball 😮‍💨

[hushed breach]

goated

also jordan is a nike brand, so it still makes sense even without knowing anything about Ishod

[frosty light]

Yeah, ong

[hushed breach]

psst... peep the art in #creative

[elder atlas]

Wow that's dope!!!😱

[lucid condor]

The current skate. collection

[timber sedge]

Mine is about 1/8th of the size of yours haha

[hushed breach]

Beautiful!

Those Pax decks are a dream

[lucid condor]

Gotta start somewhere! I'm not here to gloat or flex ON people but I definitely am proud of what I have, and worked hard to get these

[hushed breach]

Proud of you bro!

[lucid condor]

Haha thanks dude

[sullen abyss]

i can smell you

[lucid condor]

[minor lagoon]

@hushed breach

here is also the video the board that i won being skated lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey3HGrm-28w

[hushed breach]

That's sick

[radiant monolith]

Those are fire!!!

[elder atlas]

Truly amazing collection🔥 i still like the fact the coach frank one has been skated. Like it was used for some coach frank coaching sessions

[lucid condor]

Haha that's a good way to look at it!

[frosty light]

I really wanna get these, but they’re pretty expensive

$200 AUD/$127 USD

[lucid condor]

Why so much lol

[radiant monolith]

Wait is that alot of shoes?

[hushed breach]

Could be super limited or since it's a collab?

[hushed breach]

Those are clean af but daaamn they're pricey

[lucid condor]

Ahh

[hushed breach]

Pickle Man collab

Imagine Jason Dill in Skate. with a pickle costume as alternate attire named Pickle Man. Like he's this mysterious skate mascot that's revealed to be Jason Dill, then after a mission that reveals his identity, you get him as a playable character.

[frosty light]

Jason Dill collab, that’s prolly why

Was looking at these as well, at least these are on sale cause of Black Friday

[hushed breach]

Forums and Chukkas are sick! Not really a Vans Half Cab fan

[frosty light]

Yeah I’ve wanted a pair of ADV Forums for agessss! But most of the ones I like are never in Size 11 ):

[hushed breach]

):

[frosty light]

I was looking at TONS of button ups and jackets too

These shirts weren’t bad either

[hushed breach]

That chocolate zip goes hard, but that price is crazy. Better be the highest quality jacket I own

[frosty light]

Yeah, I’ve fell in love with that Passport zip-up ever since I saw it in person one time

[hushed breach]

I don't blame you. It's gorgeous

[frosty light]

Found that irl pic of it too

[hushed breach]

That looks super thin for a $110 jacket

How's the material?

[frosty light]

Been a while since I’ve seen it
But pics look promising

I’m just a sucker for quilt tho

[frosty light]

My new Busenitz Vulc II’s

[radiant monolith]

Siiiick!!

[elder atlas]

🔥

[hushed breach]

Cleaaan!!

[lucid condor]

love it

[frosty light]

Currently wondering which skate. shirt I’m gonna wear to go practice tomorrow
Decisions, decisions… 🤔

[radiant monolith]

Ahh im jealous, they look so sick!!

https://tenor.com/view/gimme-give-me-gif-14958404

[hushed breach]

What kind of practice?

[frosty light]

Skate practice, my man
Finally got a t-tool to tighten my trucks, just gonna go and get used to balancing on it

[hushed breach]

Woohoo!! Gotta go purple!

[frosty light]

I’m seeing eye to eye with ya! It’s a lot more sentimental after all

[hushed breach]

yes and purple

purple go brr

[frosty light]

I’m also considering wearing a brand new Butter Goods shirt I bought, which looks nice

[hushed breach]

Send pics

[hushed breach]

now thats butter!

🧈

but i stand by my decision on purple

it is your choice in the end

[radiant monolith]

Thats cleaaan!!!

[frosty light]

Definitely not margarine! 🧈

[hushed breach]

cant believe its not margaret

[hushed breach]

Wicked

[frosty light]

Hmm, tastes like butter

[hushed breach]

You must love your butter and your non butter

[frosty light]

Just tightened up my trucks with this lil t-tool
Now my board feels so much easier to stand on, and it’s still a little bit loose, which is good!

[frosty light]

Unoriginal idea, but I asked ChatGPT what the best skate video parts were, and this is what it came up with:

[lucid condor]

Hot chocolate is next on my list. Just finished Baker 3 last night

[frosty light]

It’s a crime it didn’t mention Flip’s Sorry, Enjoi’s Bag of Suck, or Blind’s Video Days

Bag of Suck especially, loved Hsu’s part on that one

[frosty light]

I keep getting recommended Baker 3 on my YouTube feed
Prolly cause I recently watched Zero’s Dying To Live recently

[lucid condor]

Can't wait to watch more

[frosty light]

I’m gonna binge a ton tonight for the fun of it

It may be almost 1:00 in the morning, but that wont stop me

[lucid condor]

Lmaoo

I have off Friday so I'll wake up and watch one of em

[hushed breach]

I enjoyed watching Baker 4. I recommend it

[hushed breach]

Added some more style to my skate bag

Officially licensed MF DOOM pin

[pliant spindle]

NICE

[hushed breach]

I didn't know what to put it on and just had it for a while until now

[frosty light]

My local finally stocked these!!! Payched!!

[hushed breach]

Those are gorgeous

[frosty light]

Knu Skool’s are awesome
I love the stupidly thick tongue

[hushed breach]

I love shoes that hug

[frosty light]

Weather is just a tad hectic

[hushed breach]

Jinkies scoob

[frosty light]

I love rain and thunder so much (just not when it inconveniences me)

[hushed breach]

Dude same. I just need a nice, loud rain that isn't damaging

[frosty light]

I spoke too soon, this is nuts

[radiant monolith]

Weather here

And im watching some police investigation in the background

Perfect snowy day 😌

[hushed breach]

Stay safe bro

[frosty light]

Just the run from our carport to the stairs had me soaked in 2 seconds 😂

[hushed breach]

Rekt

[frosty light]

Pwned, one could say

[hushed breach]

M3RK3D one could say

[hushed breach]

gained some more style points

[radiant monolith]

thats fireeeeeee

[hushed breach]

Yes. 8.25-8.3 is pretty normal for adults

Could be the trucks. My longboard has way lighter trucks than my normal deck

[radiant monolith]

8.25 - 8.5 is on the wider side, so when learning tricks or cruising u got more surface area to do so

[hushed loom]

PERFECT place to slap that

[hushed breach]

Truth!! Next to the Stereo sticker too!

[hushed breach]

147 is the size

[hushed loom]

Yes

But don't forget to apply lube/grease/oil afterwards

[frosty light]

@radiant monolith here it is in all it’s glory

Plus me, I suppose 😂

[radiant monolith]

soooo, im stealing that LMAO

[frosty light]

Lol you’ll have to come to the land down under then, survive the humid heat, the wildlife, and then find my place 😆

[radiant monolith]

honestly, im gonna cry just thinking abt the wildlife

did u win it, or was it just sent to u?

[frosty light]

Just sent as a gracious gift by Jeff himself

[radiant monolith]

damn!!! thats awesome! living my dream! so congrats!!

[frosty light]

Thank you!! Still hoping to get some more merch hopefully!

[elder atlas]

The spiders alone keep me far far away from that country

[frosty light]

I rlly want the Year 3 deck

[frosty light]

I don’t even fear em, I just dislike em with a passion
Everything else, I’m perfectly fine with

[radiant monolith]

don't we all haha! but yea, honestly, some clothing and a deck would make my life, but im def tryna enter those giveaways when its some where i can actually win cause, apparently, i can't win some giveaways because im from denmark

[frosty light]

Yeah I remember Jeff saying you could only really win stuff through the contests and other things, not the Sweepstakes cause of certain laws, etc etc

[radiant monolith]

yea! sounds about right, so either i have to be super swag for the skate. team to send one, or i have to be a true contest winner lmao

[elder atlas]

Same here. Sucks, I thought it was an EU thing but France and Germany are allowed

[radiant monolith]

norway too

[frosty light]

If only I had the time to enter that Halloween screenshot contest 😭

[radiant monolith]

SAME FR

[elder atlas]

Omg all our neighboring country's can jeez lol. Just our luck eh 🤣

[elder atlas]

I'm happy you didn't. Might have stolen my win 🤣

[radiant monolith]

ITS SO UNFAIR LMAO, but honestly, if i get a deck or some clothing, then i get it- and if i don't then i can always be jealous and cry myself to sleep

https://tenor.com/view/shrug-gif-25269231

[frosty light]

I could’ve totally done it, but I had a 10 day cruise that started around the same time as it did, then ended a few days prior to the deadline 😓

[elder atlas]

Jk hope you get a year 3 board soon Massa!

[radiant monolith]

wait u got a deck too?!

[frosty light]

Yeah, Cap won it via the very same screenshot contest

[radiant monolith]

daaaaamn, see now im starting to see a pattern.... LMAO

[elder atlas]

Yeah I won in the spooktacular contest with a screenshot

[frosty light]

Super duper jelly, considering the decks get better and better every year

But the Year 2 deck was designed by one of DIME’s artists, so that’s a win in my book

[radiant monolith]

ayyy thats amazing tho! but Jeff did mention having 100+ decks he need to give out by the summer so, i can only hope since haha!

[elder atlas]

Hahahaha that is amazing

[frosty light]

Yeah that’s my hope, he had like 150-170 if I recall correctly

[radiant monolith]

the full pic is somewhere in #creative took a good amount of time to make

[radiant monolith]

damn, i just gotta cross my fingers then! :D

[frosty light]

I love it so much!! It’s hilarious 🤣

[radiant monolith]

thank u thank u! lmao

[frosty light]

I’m heading back to the high school I graduated from next Tuesday to pay a surprise visit to my teachers

[radiant monolith]

awh that sounds cool!

[frosty light]

Super psyched to see em again

I want these so bad….!!

Sci-Fi Fantasy Vans 😮‍💨

[lucid condor]

Wearing my Vans ultrarange's for the first time in a while

[frosty light]

These are interesting

[timber sedge]

My wife's got me some vans MTE-2s for christmas to replace my Converse Waterproofs that are falling apart

[lucid condor]

Nice! Fresh pairs are always so nice lol

[timber sedge]

I've got a pair of vans for every occasion haha

But the weatherproof ones are great for dog walks... and it has that style to go with too haha

These are what I have currently, that are literally falling apart, but have lasted for about 5 years of good use

[hushed breach]

Moonlight

[frosty light]

I never knew these SB models existed!

[radiant monolith]

the green one is so cool!

[frosty light]

The SB’s on fleek

[hushed breach]

Cleaaan

[radiant monolith]

Who wanna go skate? LMAO 4:30 Pm here

[lucid condor]

Looks so nice

[radiant monolith]

Its weird cause, its so early but so dark, tho it is veeeery pretty

[hushed breach]

Looks pretty chill

[radiant monolith]

It is- just very cold haha

[hushed breach]

It's cold here. Probably not as cold though

[radiant monolith]

30 fahrenheit here or smth

[hushed breach]

Oh. Same here

[radiant monolith]

Oh no wait 23 fahrenheit

Damn- had to convert via google

[hushed breach]

Close enough

[radiant monolith]

yea ngl

not far off atleast

[slender python]

I want snow :(

we keep getting rain

[hushed loom]

Remove trucks, add surf wax to board

[radiant monolith]

honestly, not a bad idea!

[radiant monolith]

its very cold....

[slender python]

it is indeed

but it means nice skiing and snowboarding

but yeah, the cold sucks

[radiant monolith]

not when ur from denmark and ur country is suuuuuper flat lmao

[slender python]

darn

super windy too?

I used to live in a flat place and it was always super windy in the winter

[radiant monolith]

yup.

[elder atlas]

I did that as a kid off the hill. It's not a very very good idea 🤣 it's fun tho!

[frosty light]

What do yall think? I might get some NB’s for Christmas

[high falcon]

siiiick i'm getting vans hi tops

[balmy sundial]

these nb's looking great, i wanna skate the reynolds one they look so nice

[radiant monolith]

Theyre super dope!!

[hushed loom]

You make that?

[hushed breach]

Shoe

[frosty light]

What yall think about this deal? $99 AUD/$66 USD, for wheels, a hoodie, and a deck!

[hushed breach]

That's pretty solid imo. Usually hoodies go for $30-60, plus a board ($50), plus wheels = solid deal

[frosty light]

Yeah, exactly, especially if my current board breaks, or I skate it so much I wear my wheels down, then I have a spare deck/wheels

And I can just reuse my trucks

[hushed breach]

Truth. I just cruise usually, so my board is in very good condition. A lil bit of razor tail coming in, but nothing horrible

[frosty light]

Yeah, and that isn’t to mention reusing bushings, bearings, stuff like that I spose

Only thing I’d need to fork out for is new grip

[radiant monolith]

thats a sick deck aswell!!!

[frosty light]

Defo!!

What sucks is

There are other bundles on that website with boards I prefer

Cause the other ones all have Enjoi boards that I like, but aren’t the size I skate

[radiant monolith]

ive been looking at this deck

[radiant monolith]

ohhh :/ that sucks!

[frosty light]

I like the graphic on that, super clean 🔥

For example there’s this bundle

[radiant monolith]

its super clean! idk what style of deck graphic i like yet, but im figuring it out- and i liked the colors alot!

[radiant monolith]

9* DECK?! holy moly

[frosty light]

Yeah, it’s a big one

I skate 8.25

[radiant monolith]

i skate 8 atm, the deck im tryna get is an 8,25

[frosty light]

What size shoe do you skate?

Weird question I spose, but that’s how I figured out the right size for me

[radiant monolith]

i dont remember my shoe size, i can prob go a check (havent gotten new shoes in a good while) but 8.25 should be perfect, cause 8 does fit my shoe size

[frosty light]

Cause this is how I sort of knew what would be a good size for me

[radiant monolith]

yea size 8-8.3 for me

[frosty light]

I wear a US 11, so I went with the smallest one I could manage, which was 8.25

[radiant monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/bigfoot-griddy-cryptid-trailcam-gif-27530391

[radiant monolith]

ahhh i see!

[frosty light]

I think this is a decent complete for the price

$99.95 AUD/$66.64 USD

[hushed breach]

Woah that's really cheap. Trucks might be cheapo

[radiant monolith]

Fire pics

[topaz rune]

preciate it

[long venture]

what camera did you use for these?

[hushed breach]

Looks like a phone camera

[timber sedge]

Great deal! At one point in time, I skated nothing but Blind decks

[frosty light]

Blind is a wicked brand
I just wish it was easier to find myself an Enjoi complete that’s in my size that isn’t sold out 😓

[timber sedge]

I'm a massive enjoi stan too, got the panda tat and all haha

Huge shame they've disbanded now though

[frosty light]

Yeah, barely any of the OG’s are with Enjoi anymore, it’s a shame

At least Jerry founded Sci-Fi Fantasy, those boards are seriously

[frosty light]

It’s wicked that you have the Enjoi Panda as a tat tho! That is actually more awesome the more I think abt it dude

[timber sedge]

It's a cool logo, as it's not obvious it's skate related, so if you know, you know. And if you don't... it's just a cool panda

[frosty light]

Yeah yeah, I getcha! I was literally surfing their online sight today and just wishing I could get some apparel from em, a shirt, hoodie, jeans, anything like that

[timber sedge]

I've a nice collection of enjoi goods, used to always be on sale where I'd get my stuff. Sometimes you can grab stuff on places like ebay and get some new with tags deals

[frosty light]

Yeah, that’s a shout, I’ll definitely check that out
It just sucks that Enjoi is mostly US based, as I’m Australian and don’t really wanna overspend on anything that isn’t too necessary

A pair of Fader jeans from Enjoi is around $70 USD, which is about $100 AUD not including shipping costs

I’d rather search around and get myself a solid pair of Dickies

[frosty light]

I found a cool Enjoi sweater on eBay but it’s a Small 😭

[timber sedge]

Yeah, I have the same issue usually. Being in the UK it's somewhat slim pickings for what comes over

[timber sedge]

Yeah, I don't usually get skate branded trousers, more just tops and that. I usually just get my skatestores own brand as I know how they fit and feel

[frosty light]

Yeah I’m a L/XL type of guy, I like my stuff baggy
I found a Large Enjoi cinnabar polo that was $50 AUD, with $60 postage

[timber sedge]

Always great when postage is more than the product

[frosty light]

That’s a good idea actually
I can’t even remember if my local skateshop has their own pants, but I know they have tons of branded hoodies, hats, button up, etc.

[timber sedge]

Yeah mine usually have a deal for buying 2 pairs £40 for 1 or £60 for 2

[frosty light]

Ooh yeah that’s a sick deal

[timber sedge]

Super stretchy denim, perfect for skating

[frosty light]

There’s a store at my local shopping centre that’s selling Dickies for $40 AUD

[timber sedge]

Their chinos are the same too, lasts long too

[frosty light]

Defo a good deal if I can get em in my size

[timber sedge]

Super cheap for Dickies, not sure if they have outlets in Aus, but they are always worth checking out. Usually have everything for cheaper than usually, and that's not including sales

[frosty light]

Yeah, I was even considering trying to find some Carhartt factory seconds

I don’t mind small defects if it means I can get thick Carhartt pants for way cheaper than retail

[timber sedge]

Yeah, usually it's minor defects anyway... that other brands would just consider perfect haha

[frosty light]

Yeah pretty much haha, I’ve seen vintage Carhartt jeans for for half the price of the new stuff

$99 AUD for the old stuff, $250 AUD for the new stuff 💀

[timber sedge]

And I don't think anyone is going to judge you for have jeans a couple years out of date ahah

[frosty light]

This was the Enjoi stuff I found
Long sleeve is inexpensive but way too small for me, while the polo is almost perfect size, but absurdly priced

[frosty light]

Exactly 😂

[timber sedge]

The striped sweater is nice, shame it's a small

[frosty light]

Yeah exactly 😭

[timber sedge]

We have an app in the UK called Vinted where people can sell clothes and stuff. You can usually find brand new stuff super super cheap. Grabbed a couple new with tags vans tees for about £10 each, and Vans dad hats for like a fiver also. Might be worth seeing if there's an alternative for Aus

[frosty light]

Yeah I just found an alternative right as you said that!

It’s called Official Vintage

Found these Carhartt pants in my size for under $100

[timber sedge]

Oh nice, you also have Depop, I think that may be worldwide? Not 100% sure though

[timber sedge]

Solid!

[frosty light]

I might check that one out

[frosty light]

I’ll have to keep em in mind for a later date though, don’t wanna burn too much cash on just pants this Christmas lol 🤣

[timber sedge]

That's very true... too easy to get carried away haha

Might be able to get some good store deals in the January sales too...

[frosty light]

Ooh yeah, maybe, I’ll keep it in the back of my mind for certain

At least I have my eye on some Dickies

I’m still thinking what skate shoes I’ll get for Christmas

[timber sedge]

I’m quite interested in the NB 306s myself. May grab a pair when they next come up in a sale

[frosty light]

Yeah I was just looking on the online website for my local skateshop for some shoes, found some that interested me

[radiant monolith]

those are cleaaaaaan

[frosty light]

You can’t go wrong with Sambas

[timber sedge]

Not sure about Last Resorts myself. They seem like very basic shoes for a premium price range

[frosty light]

I think it’s less of it being basic, more of it going for a minimalist style
Plus they’re pretty sturdy, same guy who founded Last Resort AB founded Polar Skate Co.

[timber sedge]

I think it’s more the ‘high end fashion’ side of skateboarding

[frosty light]

Yeah, I think so

Polar is definitely on the expensive side of things, especially with €120 jeans on their site

Makes sense that Last Resort AB is cut from the same cloth

[timber sedge]

For sure, I think they are trying to creep into streetwear too… which makes sense though. As you then hit a bigger audience

[frosty light]

Yeah, streetwear is a big thing, so that also makes sense

Holy crap, I stumbled across these a few days ago, found them again and just rejuvenated my interest in them

[timber sedge]

Ohh they are nice

[radiant monolith]

thats so sad :(

[hushed breach]

What even is that

[rustic kite]

chip

[radiant monolith]

Thats good atleast!

[hushed breach]

Ooooh. I thought that was a rug 😂😂

I was thinking someone muddied the rug

[timber sedge]

Slap some superglue on it, jobs a good’en

[hushed breach]

Ayy worth it

[radiant monolith]

thats fire!

[dusty wasp]

OOO. Those are nice!

[hushed loom]

You got all of that ordering socks? Excuse me for a moment

[lucid condor]

So, the stickers were free which was a dope addition. But on instagram they had shown Arto signing photos and they said "want one of these signed photos? Just buy something. Next 9 orders get one, first come first serve" and I got lucky!

And I was in the market for new socks for work lol

[hushed breach]

That's awesome!! Nine Club socks would be rad! I need to wear my goofy socks today

[lucid condor]

They only had 1 or 2 choices but was def worth it

[hushed breach]

how soft are they?

[lucid condor]

They're Stance branded socks so they are really good. Not like soft soft but regular soft I guess? Idk lol. I have plenty of other stance socks and they've lasted

[hushed breach]

oh heck yeah. i know what you mean

im going thrifting tonight and im hoping to pick up some gloves for when I skate

[lucid condor]

Nice! Good luck

[lucid condor]

@rustic kite big or small?

[rustic kite]

I meant in-game but that's dope haha

[lucid condor]

haha i know but this is all i got

[hushed loom]

Ayyyy nice!

[radiant monolith]

@hushed breach a screenshot of a vid i took for the video im working on

[hushed breach]

OOH!!

pretty shot

[hushed breach]

I remember this shot. It would look so clean stabilized with some uplifting music

[radiant monolith]

exactly!

i have very shaky hands at times- so i always stabilize clips later on

[hushed breach]

Make sure you white balance them in post

[radiant monolith]

100% will do!

[hushed breach]

What NLE do you use?

[radiant monolith]

NLE?

[hushed breach]

Oh sorry. I'm used to the film lingo. Non-Linear Editor. Like Da Vinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, CapCut, etc

I know how to color correct in da Vinci and premiere in case you need help

[radiant monolith]

ohh premiere, i do have davinci, but i dont know how to do anything with that, so i NEEEEEED premiere lmao

[radiant monolith]

ayy would be dope!

[hushed breach]

Da Vinci is easy to understand and transition to if youre experienced with other programs

[radiant monolith]

i disagree

[hushed breach]

Color correction is so easy in premiere.

1. You'll want to change your workspace to CC but the workspace may also be called Color.
2. Go to the color tab, and click the eye dropper tool
3. Hover over your video and click a spot where it should be white.

It should adjust from too blue or too yellow, to a nice balance.

(Optional) 4. Use the temperature and tint sliders to adjust the white balance to your liking (Can use this instead of auto white balance with the eye dropper)

[hushed breach]

I had to watch a 15 minute video to learn the layout, but besides that, it was pretty simple, even though it was scary and intimidating

[radiant monolith]

oh yea stuff i got! dw

https://tenor.com/view/bugs-bunny-looney-tunes-winner-flexing-flex-gif-13941171

[radiant monolith]

damnnnn

[hushed breach]

Swag

[hushed breach]

Its not horrible. I can find you the right video if you're interested in Da Vinci. da Vinci is a godsend for a free NLE

[radiant monolith]

aaay noted! thank u

[hushed breach]

If you need more help, just let me know

[radiant monolith]

will do!

[ornate bronze]

i could figure it out with microsoft video editor experience, some people don’t even need that video, but it will take you less than an hour to figure out

[hushed breach]

some people dont need it but some people find it easier instead of going through everything at once and getting overwhelmed. I tried to learn da vinci on my own but just got overwhelmed and watched a video instead

[frosty light]

@hushed breach I had no idea these existed!!!

[radiant monolith]

they do, and theyre sick.

[frosty light]

SB Jordan 1’s are something I never expected

[hushed breach]

Ooh. I didn't know they came in that colorway

[frosty light]

The fact they’re SB’s is wicked tho!!

I knew they made the J4 SB in the Pine Green, but I never knew they did it with the J1!

These are awesome!

[frosty light]

This UNC SB was also an idea delivered by Eric Koston

[hushed breach]

Fr

[latent wind]

There’s also a lance mountain j1 high and low

[elder atlas]

Woah that color is amazing

@frosty light I think you will also love these Nike Air Max X Piet Parra. Picked these up a little while ago with a colleague. Used but in really really good condition. Parra is a designer here in the Netherlands.

[hushed breach]

Those are kinda cool. Not my style at all

[frosty light]

Parra’s collabs with Nike has had some good stuff come out of it
Those Air Max’s aren’t my thing tho, but these SB Dunk Parra F&F’s are awesome

[elder atlas]

I love almost everything from parra also the little pear lamp or tomato those are awesome

[radiant monolith]

Those are fire

[frosty light]

👀

[hushed breach]

YOOO

[frosty light]

Fingers crossed that goes further than being pinned

[hushed breach]

Dude that made my day

[frosty light]

One other dude got pinned so I think it’s down to me and that guy for the prize

[hushed breach]

I hope you win! I probably wouldn't play it

If I win, I'll ship it to you

[frosty light]

Naw, you’re too kind homie

It’d be nice for me to have if I win 100%

The Switch itself is very unique

[hushed breach]

I tagged you in the post, so I count it as you winning if I ship it

[radiant monolith]

u got this!!

[frosty light]

Just gotta wait and see 🤞

I love that there's a mouse pointer there

That's dope! Hope you win buddy!!

[long venture]

just copped the gator board 🔥

[hushed breach]

That's so clean!! Those colors though

[long venture]

thats what im sayin! thought it'd be hard to ollie since its so heavy but its actually solid, gonna use mostly for cruising

[hushed breach]

Perfect for cruising!

[radiant monolith]

@hushed breach

[hushed breach]

That's fire, but not what I want. Navy kinda like that, but a white Dime logo in the middle

[radiant monolith]

ahhh

[radiant monolith]

closest i could find

[hushed breach]

Nah

[hushed breach]

Oooh so clean!!

[radiant monolith]

ayyy thats clean

[frosty light]

@hushed breach just saw these Samba’s, whatcha think?

[hushed breach]

Clean, but that price isn't clean

[frosty light]

Gotta remember it’s AUD my homie

[hushed breach]

Ah true

Big difference

[frosty light]

The other Sambas I sent were the same price

Other than the Dill Patents

Which are $199.95

[hushed breach]

Yikers

[frosty light]

Yikers indeed

[frosty light]

Obvious packaging is obvious

[hushed breach]

It is the minestrone!!

[frosty light]

You certainly shipped it in a nice big plate for me

[hushed breach]

Shelf*

[frosty light]

I hope it’s still warm

[hushed breach]

It's a shelf, Massa

[radiant monolith]

What is ittt?

[frosty light]

A shelf and minestrone, duh

[radiant monolith]

… whats actually in it

[frosty light]

My lil $99 bundle that I ordered!

The one with the Blind deck

[radiant monolith]

OHHH :O show it when its opened!

[frosty light]

That’ll definitely take a few days to get to haha

It’s my Christmas gift, so I gotta wait till Christmas Day to do so

[radiant monolith]

Huge difference fr

haha. I never noticed that. Its a grunge edit I did. Its a pic of me from Halloween

That's rad. I want to cop some Lakai Cambridges

[radiant monolith]

been looking into dunks lately, havent truly found my style of dunk yet- but heres some i found interesting

[hushed breach]

Just to let you know, those are normal Dunks for basketball. Dunk SBs are the skating Dunks

But those colorways are pretty sick

[radiant monolith]

ohhh well! now ik that, ill looking more into those then!

[hushed breach]

I have a pair of normal Dunks but they're not snug like skate shoes. That's why I want SBs.

[finite talon]

the first ones are unbelievably sexy

[radiant monolith]

exactly!

[finite talon]

looks like a sunset tbh

[timber sedge]

Since Skate. finger boards are the talk atm… thought I’d share some pics of my DIY modular fingerboard park

[elder atlas]

That's dope! What did you use for the rails?

[timber sedge]

I bent a 6mm aluminium rod into shape by holding on end in a vice and a bit of force, and cut a small piece for the middle support witha a bit of hot glue to hold it in place. Got a few flat bars that I've made using different types of cupboard/ draw handles too

[elder atlas]

That's amazing! Nice job and very creative

[timber sedge]

Best part about fingerboarding... you can use most things to create cool spots. Back at school it was just a text book in class, made for a great mani pad/ ledge

[frosty light]

@dusty wasp @radiant monolith couldn’t take IRL pics of what I got (cause my mum took them away to wrap), but this is what I got today

[dusty wasp]

Okay! Matching shirt & shoes. Nice.

[frosty light]

Exactly!! Got the shoes first, then I saw the shirt and knew it was a match made in heaven

I was gonna get some stonewash baggy Butter shorts, but they were out of my size

[radiant monolith]

Thats so fire!! Omg

[frosty light]

The shirt perfectly suits the Milic’s amirite?

[radiant monolith]

Yes!! Would look perfect with some light colored jeans

[hushed breach]

Sick combo!

[slender python]

What happened, bad injury?

I had a close call a couple months ago

Ah, yikes

Good luck

[hushed loom]

Bottom hem?

Are they a bit long?

If you have any thread and a needle, I can walk you through making that fold more permanent and fixed

[timber sedge]

Just start turning them up… and do your own washing. She’ll be none the wiser

[rustic kite]

Nah just patch it

[spare aspen]

i got 7,75 do i need to get a 8,25 or 8

mine is 9

my shoes are 9

[frosty light]

@radiant monolith these are the ones 🥲

[radiant monolith]

Those are so clean omg

[frosty light]

That’s why I’m so jelly of yours

😂

[radiant monolith]

But mine are the basic navy blue ones? Lmao

[frosty light]

I like all Forums! 🤣

[radiant monolith]

Ohhh fair! Same honestly, im tryna find out what shoe fits me and my style the best, atm im on the Nike Blazers- hard to get into, but worth vibe wise

[frosty light]

I want Nike Blazer Mids, but my dilemma is having to untie them everytime I wanna put em on

So I wanna get a shoehorn before I get a pair

[radiant monolith]

Yes that sucks

[radiant monolith]

I got one of those! Best investment fr

These are the ones i got

Theyre mids

[frosty light]

Those’re sick!!!

[radiant monolith]

Mhm!! Not the best to skate in tho

But thats prob bc, mids are high to me, cause im short as a smurf

[frosty light]

I want the Nike SB Blazer Sashiko’s

[radiant monolith]

Those are dope ngl!

[long venture]

Bro these are the shoes im skating currently 💀

[elder atlas]

Just a bit longer and you'll be popping tricks with your toes😎

Not sure which deck to get, those are 8.25

This one is 8.37 or smth

:(

[long venture]

Dude that flip deck is so cleaaan

[radiant monolith]

I know! Its super dope! But im so confused abt what deck i rlly like- cause u also vibe with the real skateboard deck with the walking dog yk?

[long venture]

Yea i get you, i recently got an old school 9.75 deck and its probably the most fun ive had on a skateboard, thing is huge but i learned fs 180s on it today

[radiant monolith]

Thats sick! This will be my first custom board 💪

[long venture]

Alsways wanted to build a custom board, after riding the oldie i really want to build a regular 8.75 baker or creature board cause the wider feel is so nice imo

Its sending (sent)

[hushed loom]

"it's about dang time"

[radiant monolith]

FR.

Its gooooofy, and i love it

[hushed loom]

You already knew that was going to be your pick when shared the options lol

[radiant monolith]

I actually wanted to buy the green girl deck, i love the girl decks but, that exact one was an 8.37 which i think is a lil too wide for me, had it been an 8.25 i wouldve picked that

Also considered these

But ended up going w the goofy one bc of the, goofyness of it- and the nice blue wooden texture

[hushed breach]

Ayy the Ishod deck!! Love it

[radiant monolith]

Sameee! It grew on me as i was looking at other decks, cause i kept going back to it after sending em here

[hushed breach]

Enjoi it!

[radiant monolith]

Imma keep it Real, cause i aint no Baker… Ill truly Enjoi it! I have Zero Deathwish’s

deal was too good to pass up, an 8.5 on hollow trucks??? for $54?????

[frosty light]

Oh hell yeah, for that much? Absolute bargain mate

[long venture]

Yea bro crazy deal, globes website got decks for $24 and completes for $40 right now, probably the lowest ive ever seen

[frosty light]

Hey, if you’re itching to take advantage of another deal like that
DGK’s doing a deal where you get a mystery complete for $45 AUD (not including shipping/taxes from US unfortunately)

Sizes only go up to a max of 8.25 though

[long venture]

damn i only got $44 left thats sick tho

[frosty light]

Might do it myself and see how I go

[frosty light]

[frosty light]

I guess I’m not buying this DGK board

Goddamn shipping fees 😠

[hushed breach]

[hushed breach]

[frosty light]

It’s a mystery DGK box

[hushed breach]

[hushed breach]

[frosty light]

Yeah…

Massive bummer, kinda heartbroken

[pliant spindle]

Played Skate 3 on my Backbone today. I love technology.

[dusty wasp]

Nice! Mobile controller while playing Skate 3. I have to get the Backbone one day

you could travel while playing games with the Backbone everywhere. That's cool

[hushed breach]

is that some kind of controller?

[pliant spindle]

Ya. I’m an idiot and wrote in the wrong channel. My bad.

[hushed breach]

that'll be a 1 month ban. Enjoy your winter break

[radiant monolith]

Thats dope!

[radiant monolith]

@elder atlas this oneee

[elder atlas]

Nice!!!

[radiant monolith]

Yup! I got bones red bearings, bones stf 52mm 103a wheels (harder than im used to) and independent trucks

And griptape from grizzly

[elder atlas]

Nice! You'll get used to the wheels in no time

[radiant monolith]

I hope so!

[elder atlas]

Check out the used market there's always a lot of them for sale. Picked mine up for only €40

[radiant monolith]

@elder atlas

[elder atlas]

Love the decal on the grip tape!

[radiant monolith]

same! felt like the goofy cartoon character on the deck would fit the vibe of the one on the griptape

[elder atlas]

Exactly!

[elder atlas]

Also I'm at the last chapter of Alan Wake! Ive been playing it a LOT haha

[radiant monolith]

thats sick! i recently started the last of us 1

[elder atlas]

Oooeeh that one is in my top 3 best games ever. It's soooo good

[radiant monolith]

ive seen it played so many times i cant even count, watched the hbo series 2 times- and somehow still sob at that beginning

[elder atlas]

First time a game made me cry and had me genuinely shocked. I haven't watched the series tho I dont like series that much. Played tlou2 once and am really excited for the remake upgrade ill play it again when it comes out

[radiant monolith]

if u like the game, u will LOVE the series

theres different level of the acting delivery- scenes feel different but just as emotional, theres more in depth story work- like Bill and his lover, Ellie in the mall from the DLC, and ALOOOOT more Ellie and Joel bonding

and i gotta say- i like Pedro pascals Joel a little more than troy bakers-

[fading breach]

Very nice!!

Love Real and that is a nice graphic

[fading breach]

I have Indy trucks too

[long venture]

Brooooooooooo, i guess impulse buying a new board the other day worked out in my favor

[radiant monolith]

daaamn :O

[radiant monolith]

[radiant monolith]

indy trucks?...

[hushed loom]

Independent

[radiant monolith]

[frosty light]

Hehe

[radiant monolith]

Theyre both taken on a potato 🥲

[radiant monolith]

Idk how to fix the bolts sticking out like this tho

Nvm found out i was a weakling and needed to tighten the bolts some more

[lucid condor]

Enjoi! The feeling of the first board is unmatched

[radiant monolith]

Did i do this right?

Cause- it isnt popping in- for some reason- maybe im just too weak or smth

Im so lost

[radiant monolith]

figured it out

and im done

first custom board woooooo

managed to scratch the deck while building tho :(

more pics

yall dig it?

forgot to show the lil griptape guy

[radiant monolith]

and totally forgot to say thank u sm! haha

[lucid condor]

Yea I was gonna say the bearing needed to go in a little more. they can be tough, not just you

[radiant monolith]

defenitly noted

[hushed breach]

Yooo he big chillin

[radiant monolith]

fr!!

[hushed loom]

Got spacers in-between the bearings?

[radiant monolith]

nope- but i ended up taking the bearings out and throwing them back in- AND SWOOP- in they went- while before i was struggeling lmao

[hushed loom]

Ok, I just ask because they are frequently looked over by skaters but they serve a very helpful purpose to avoid blowing out the bearings when turning or adding cross force against the wheels.

[radiant monolith]

oh?`:O well- no spacers came with anything- but i might take a look into them

[hushed loom]

That and speed rings. Both aren't " necessary" but they do help out a little and make your stuff last a little longer

[ornate bronze]

better get used to it lol cause it’s going to get scratched

[steel wolf]

2nd hand skate board i did a couple months ago. Trucks, wheels and deck are the same but bought the grip tape and the nuts for the wheels when i did the job

[worldly basin]

Fresh js and fresh setup

[worldly basin]

It feels like a cardinal sin to skate those Jordans bro

Might have to cop some other shoes

[hushed breach]

I have a similar pair I skated. They work

[worldly basin]
