graphic is so sick. i peeped a similar looking piece on a older board he had (i think it had a shark) and was wondering who did it. glad we have answers now!
Sciatic? 35 yrold and I feel that too. Copped an egg 🛹 waiting for delivery. Love the channel gets me psyched to skate feel at home for having my board madness we’re not alone and girl dad too so good to know that we’re out there getting it 😎
Once again, I am going to feed the algorithm with a comment and a thumbs up in the hopes it helps you reach more people. Keep the videos coming brother you look like you're having a good time and I'm here for it.
I freaking love your videos. You hype a old man like me up to keep skateboarding. You doing the Lord's work my friend. Love from Baltimore Maryland. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Hi mate, another great video, I've recently just hopped on a board and have gone from not being able to Ollie to doing an Ollie whilst rolling with some speed👍🏼 getting there
Awesome art. Really appreciate the setup info/update. I got curious and decided to try the thunder hollow lights, I'm liking them so far but still adjusting.
Wow great video! The intro of building the board was so awesome, the small details such as when the music first comes in was so *chefs kiss*! The fact that you make these without a bunch of gear feels so raw but also so intentional. Idk what I'm trying to say but it definitely feels like an artistic expression!
That’s awesome to hear, and thank you for watching 🙏 it’s just me and an iPhone but I’m trying to get better at the whole process so really appreciate the positive feedback!
It so so fucking SICK to see your channel growing, I know we don’t know each other but I love watching you skate, share opinions on most of the things you speak on & it definitely gets me motivated to post. There are plenty of videos saying “skateboarding content is dead on RU-vid” but clearly it’s still possible to gain an audience.🔥🔥
Fuck yeah, thanks man! Who’s saying skateboarding on YT is dead? If anything I think it needs a broader variety. I’m just trying to put it down for the old heads lol
Man I really wanna get my hands on one of these generator blanks.. But shipping and taxes to EU is overkill. So I ride a heroin 9.125 symmetrical egg atm. It's kinda short but I really felt in love with eggs on 6.1 ventures.. Dope art mate, I mean the whole package, video, editing, skating, music and painting. Dope asf
Yeah I heard AUS shipping is fucked too. That sucks, man. I wonder if there’s anything similar over on your side? Heroin boards are super dope but I can’t buy them regularly because of the steep price tag. I like to get one every now and then though. Appreciate the love, my dude, thanks for watching!
Man I love to see that spot. The light was just perfect for this vid 👌 and verry cool graphic dude, I'm sure you could sell some of these judging by the comments too
@@dadboard dude your gear is perfect for your format 👌 I'd never guessed that you dont have any prior exp. Maybe you were lucky with your purchases haha but I love the quality of the vids, especially the content. Just easy going plain skating and your persona, the channel name... pitch perfect 👌 maybe it's 'cause our life situation is pretty simmilar with wife and two kids and just gettin out there anytime we really can 😀 keep it up as long as it works man 💪 I'll be here whenever you are. Peace ✌️
"I just can't go back to that lifestyle" 😂I've been doing shuv tricks recently and it is annoying to be aware of which way around my board is. Do you ever suffer with knees? I have noticed mine suffer a little after a flat ground session recently, I skate Dragons with risers but also probably need to bend my knees more on landing 🤔 but to be honest just landing the trick takes priority 🤣
For whatever reason, my setup for like 4 years was thunder hollow lights and 56mm 97a F4s. Really liked how it felt but I had grown so accustomed to wheelbite that I’m still timid to land not bolts on my Indy’s
Haha thought the same. I was like "wow the Bus vintage are dope in white and red. But I don't want to look like Fred Durst." Although admittedly, it only goes there when you add the red hat. 😃
i bought two of those egg shapes on your recommendations, im waiting for them! what about pepper griptape, how do you compare it to mob and jessup? thanks! great skating!
I love my egg too but I wish it was longer. Half the time I push and swivel back, my back foot is on the tip of the tail. I know that’s a me thing. I’m just lanky and am getting use to it
I like the dragons and reynolds, one thing I don't like it's like the feedback from the ground is missing if it makes sense. But i am not good skater by any measures
Do you think the generator board where you got the egg deck from would consider wheel wells to prevent wheel bite? I would be buying them up haha. Thanks man…
im about to start skating at 30, never touched a board in my life ,super out of shape and i hate the monotonous walks ive been doing for a little while,feels more fun learning a skill while hoppefully geting in better shape at the same time, just afraid this may hurt 😆
Just don’t worry about tricks or anything like that, learn how to ride the board and cruise around fluently on a flat smooth surface. That can take months so don’t be discouraged if it feels like you’re making little progress. Good luck, dude. Keep doing the walks and get some cardio in at the same time. Core strength really helps.
Softer wheels are gonna feel slower, try some better bearings with tighter tolerances... I run diamond hella fast sealed bearings in the powell dragon wheel. Those bearings felt pretty nice when new. Still good but feel more average now. Sometimes I'm hauling ass and use reverts to slow down, I like the wheels for that. I have a subluxation on my back foot ankle so I hate when the revert gets stuck! More pros and cons to it than that but that's the highlight for me.
It’s leaning more towards keeping them on as my main wheel. After about 2 weeks I was swapping them in and out depending on spots but now I’m just running them everywhere and really getting used to them. Helps that they’re a bit smaller now too
I'm 50 and my freakin feet always kill me for a day or 2 they feel bruised up...any suggestions on shoes that have the best of both worlds, board feel and comfort...
Try some insoles made for skating. I’m using some remind insoles and they allow me to skate whatever shoe I want. No need to be restricted to some bulky shoe
I always skated poorly, but I was dead serious while it lasted. Then one day I lost all interest, musta dumped at least 200lbs of magazines away... the ones I recall most vividly are shane cross nose grind el toro and diego buchieri longest ollie over a gap.
I wish there was a symmetrical shape I could get consistently that isn't girl/chocolate which I won't buy because they are made in China. I'd love one that isn't an egg, as well, with the kicks not too short. Not having a directional deck just makes so much sense. Btw, the difference soft wheels make to the joint wear and tear is definitely no joke! I almost don't want to pop if I get on a homie's board with a 99a lol
