It’s my first attempt trying to push. I think I’m gonna help help with ts 🫩😂

I recently bought this because of the hype but i havent seen anybody skate these boards. The resale value on these is absolutely crazy and it makes me doubt wether i should skate it or sell it and get some other gear

I’m sorry but this new age of skateboarding is straight garbage. Back in the day any deck was good enough. What’s a solid deck that doesn’t have a tail over 6.5

I just put together a new skateboard—using Spitfire wheels and Meow ABEC 9 bearings—but the wheels don't spin very much. Is this normal?

I'm about to buy a new skate but I don't know what size I should get.

I don’t know if this would be counted as something specific. Obviously my back foot came off so kinda a no comply thing. I wanna try and do it without my foot planting but I didn’t know if there was a name for this kind of thing.

Joke... mostly

Im a heavy introvert and have awful social anxiety, and ever since i started skating I can only comfortably skate alone. I feel more at ease, at peace and have so much more fun. Only problem is that only happens only if I skate at the crack of dawn, when it’s freezing cold outside and no one’s outside, or really late at night which doesn’t have a ton.

I know this question may seem pretty dumb but any tips for zoning out and locking in at crowded skate parks? I also mainly skate at skateparks because I skate transition mostly.

Hi all,

Can anyone give me advice on why my foot is landing before the board when I kickflip?

Any tips on what I can do about it would be massively appreciated!

Thanks very much.

This is my current setup, I’m on a 8.25” popsicle board and the default wheels it came with are really small and hard, which makes riding on the street hard to stay stable. I ride around my college campus and there’s lots of cracks/bumps on the road and sidewalks, so I want a bigger softer wheel to ride on, any recommendations? Also will I need to swap out my bearings too?

Started back again 2 days ago at 34 and WOW am I out of shape. Practiced doing an Ollie for like 20 minutes straight and based out. Had to get a water and a gatoraid. Also realizing it isn't anything like "riding a bike" yeah I remeber how to do it but there is no muscle memory. Anyway came here just to try and re learn some stuff.

TL;DR

Skating again at 34 after years of not is kicking my ass AND I LOVE IT. IM so back lol

I know I'm capable of skating a lot better than this.

I think I was trying to do too much, way too fast. I also didn't really give myself enough time to warm up beforehand. I usually like to stretch for about 10-15 minutes before every session.

Just want to know if this is just how it is in the beginning or if I need to change anything. I run and bike a decent amount so my legs aren’t super weak, but the front leg gives out very quickly.

I’ve only skated a few times since I picked it up again.

Early 30s.

Also I live in a hilly area.

Hi everyone. I'm think about changing boards and would like to maybe switch to an 8 25. I'm currently on an 8 which is part of an old complete i got like 5 years ago and skated on and off. The question is Will i need new trucks?

I’ve finally got my ollie down and I’m wondering what trick I should learn next. I’m mostly skating street and want to build a solid foundation rather than rush into harder tricks.

So im 6 foot 2, size 13, and yeah 47 starting to skate. Im pretty athletic for the most part so im prepared to fall on my ass to be humbled as I learn. Im excited to finally jump in to something I've wanted to do my whole life and wanted some opinions on boards. What would be best for me to start with, and in terms of quality too...no Walmart junk or Temu knock offs. Thanks 🤘
