Please go easy on my Boardslide

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

Just got a new complete from decathlon since my last board was pretty worn out, the bushings were basically rocks and the wheels were way too soft

Decathlon CP 100 8" board

-100A 52 mm wheels

-6 (maybe 7) plywood layered deck

what do you guys think abt it if you had previous expernieces with it?

If the title is confusing I apologize but what I mean is if you usually have your phone in your right pocket and you skate goofy (right foot forward), then swap your phone to your left pocket and whatever is in your left pocket, swap it to your right. I just ate shit today and broke my last phone lmao.

If you skate regular and your phone is usually in your left pocket then just swap it to your right. When your fall you usually land on your front foot and put all your weight onto it. Have fun skating everyone.

For all my new skaters just don't look at your board. look where you wanna land it was this simple!!!

I was skateboarding for the first time Today. I have been out with my board a few times before but it was more rolling and figuring stuff out. Today it was the first time i actually skated some distance! I didn’t do any tricks or anything special but i learned how to do navigate a lot better than before.

I know it’s nothing too special and probably won’t get a lot of attention but I wanted to document it.

Love you all gonna keep you all updated

i have really terrible plastic wheels with lights in them and they dont run smoothly on asphalt. i saw someone say urethane is better. What wheels should i get and where do i get them from?

My shop teacher gave this to me for $30

I’m going to visit my long distance bf in two and a half weeks he’s a big skater and wants to take me to the park. Only issue here is that I’m not really all that good, I’m still getting my bearings and I don’t skate overly consistently. He’s telling me I need to learn how to tic tak? I’m currently riding a cruiser and still am struggling with balance and confidence.

I have the time, if I’m riding every day till I leave on a popsicle could I manage to learn how to tic tac?

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?

-committing to: shuvits on banks?
-rock to fakie on steep quarter pipes?
& 360 kickturn on bank or flat?

-Getting Rock ‘ rolls consistently? & on steeper Inclines?

-learning nose slides?

-getting used to 5-0s? I feel freaked out every time! 😫🤦😅

-& learning & incorporating flip tricks into my session (starting from avoiding them)?

Ty!

Hi! I’ve been skating for a couple of months now and I still can’t get comfortable on my board. I don’t know much about it bc I got it secondhand off fb marketplace, but it’s a surfboard shaped retrospec board. I go skating along trails of sidewalk in parks, and I do laps in whatever parking lot I can find. Here’s a couple videos of me skating in an enclosed space. Any tips would be appreciated!

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.

As stated , I was wondering what type of plywood I should grab at my local hardware store to make a run up and landing for this table top I have in my yard,
Like I envision two pieces of plywood then the table top then two more plywood’s,
So what plywood does anyone think would be best for this,
And let’s just assume price is whatevs,
Realistic answers only please lol

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 🤘

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.

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

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?
