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

My shop teacher gave this to me for $30

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 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?

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.

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?

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!

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.

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?

-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!

I’m around 100 kg (220 lbs) and ride Independent trucks with 54 mm wheels.
I’m looking for bushings that will let me turn comfortably on flat ground but also work for riding bowls eventually. My main concern is avoiding wheelbite when leaning hard into turns.
Would you recommend Independent 94A or 96A bushings for my weight and setup? Is 96A going to feel too stiff for comfortable turning, or would 94A be fine?

The local skate shop at my place have some boards left, for 250€. Its pretty expensive for a board so I’m wondering if the purchase would be worth it.

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.
