    Skateboard on a plane?

    Hey guys, I'm going on a holiday (domestically, not going international) and I was wondering if you or anyone you know has ever taken a skateboard onto a plane? I'm limited to carry on baggage only, and even disassembling it the skateboard won't fit in a bag. I don't want them to take it off...

    Should i quit?

    If you like it keep doing it. If you don't enjoy it stop. Simple as that.

    Smart phones and tablets

    I have it on my tablet. It's beautiful. You shouldn't of even asked. Buy yourself a nexus 7 and spend the 400 bucks you saved on anti-apple propaganda. Just read up on the features of both of them and decide which you like more. The only thing that the iPad has going for it is the bigger...

    Threaded Headset Wobble

    Doesn't matter, unless the forks are different to MGP ones then it will still work. The threads on MGP forks extend longer down the tube so that the locknut still works and compresses the headset.

    Smart phones and tablets

    Purchased me a nexus 7 a few weeks ago. Goes alright, unlocked and rooted it the other night so that I can use the microUSB OTG port to plug in my 500gb portable HDD so I can keep music, movies and big apps on that. Going to need a new kernel though, stock one doesn't support NTFS and I've...

    The "OLD" SR Thread.

    Who was the guy who had a really dialled scooter but couldn't ride for shit? Everyone was like 'is it *INSERT GUYS NAME HERE* dialled?'. Then everyone started hating cause he had a perfectly dialled scooter and he never rid around people cause he sucked. Also, the top notch wheel conspiracy.

    The "OLD" SR Thread.

    Man you're so OG. Make it a little more obvious how highly you think of your OG status next time. This comment reminded me of what I meant to say. I miss it when there was no limits on who could join the conversation, when people didn't look down on you because of your join date or post...

    Threaded Headset Wobble

    Either you are missing a crown race or something of the equivalent on your fork tube or your headset top cap is threaded wrong or a little to big (manufacturing error, seen it more than once before). Or it could be the extremely obvious, it's not tightened enough. Do you have a locknut on top of...

    The "OLD" SR Thread.

    Blueness is actually missed by me right now :/ When I could make a thread asking for help and people would actually help instead of being like 'lolz n00bz up 1n h3R3' or trying to troll me into doing stupid stuff Before the MGP nitro came out, the crazy hype in the MGP discussion thread...

    What ever happened to the community?

    I miss the quality and hype of conversations and when arguements were logical. Also when people did whatever they had to just to be able to ride instead of buying 600 dollar scooters. Few bolts and bits of welded tubing and people were happy.

    Eye Candy. (do not post your own scooter!)

    Just read the first 30 pages of this thread. Compared to the last 10. I can't really find a resemblance. Is there no more shit to take photos of anymore?

    How to polish parts

    Polishing is easy, I've never done it to scooter parts but I've rawed bike frames and polished them, (after rawing) just wet sand them and then use a real fine grit sand paper on it (Go in circles for a nice finish) and them grab yourself a rag and polish them with silvo or something similar...

    I want to get into better shape, any help?

    I'm 17 and around 80kg. That's 176 pounds. I'm not worried about muscle gain (I work load shifts twice a week, that's like pulling shit out of a truck and carrying it into freezers/fridges. Usually between 2 people we do 100 boxes in 1.5 hours, lightest boxes are about 3kg, heaviest around...

    best bearings

    Get something cheap just make sure it doesn't have metal ball cages, most don't apart from the 5 dollar ones from china. Get nothing more than abec 5, because the higher the abec rating the more precise the bearings are, and the mechanics of scooter riding do not agree with precise bearings...

    Freight hopping, hitchhiking, etc.

    I've jumped on the back of a city train a few times and got a free ride to the next station (with mates of course, never do it by myself). Until it gets to the next station and the guard sees you, he's just like 'what the fuck is that stupid kid doing'. Like they can't believe you actually ride...

    Getting kicked off street spots.

    It's usually private security companies that give us trouble for riding in the shopping center carparks and stuff. Usually if they are nice we just move on and go back later, but there is this short guy and he is a real dick. He comes up and starts telling us how his brother rides BMX and...
