You don't even know

if im experiencing around 36°C and 100% humidity during summer, i think id know

one of the worst feelings is when its literally too hot to be able to ride, like you feel dead and fuxd up, or when the sun is just in your eyes and killing you

[zach poon]

What'd he do

he got like this paycheck from the vault and hashtagged #cameronpoe which is pretty fucked up

 

[Chrispy]

Its ez to make a waterscoot. You can probably just cut out two peices of foam and glassand resin em,then get bars and attach it to a small peice of that foam, then i guess maybe make a headtube to connect the front end and the deck and you are good to go. Idk if this makes sense. I guess it'd be like a snowscoot kinda

Nice a'f at night but you better cake on that off bug spray or you will get eaten alive i had 35 bites on each leg after 1 night of riding around the hood.

That's Arizona weather right now lol

Not losing control, just not absorbing anything and having to consciously mini hop everywhere. I'm not talking a bit uneven, I'm talking fucked. How's the weather in Washington? In the North Atlantic, constant freezing and thawing over the course of years can really take a toll on certain sidewalks to the point of turning a stretch of walkway into an obstacle course.

Its mostly rain from fall to mid/late spring. right now its pouring rain. Not much freezing occurs, just rain. The sidewalks arent too bad, just each panel thing is a different height so its slight bumps

 

[Josh Young]

Then what wheels do you feel are better tilt or proto

I still have not broken 1 tilt wheel since they started making them. Guess im not hard on wheels. Gave a pair to a buddy and he broke them in 2 days. Idk proto wheels are the shit but i really like my tilt wheels

Guys i have a good idea. We get one of us to work at the bones wheel factory making wheels. That person learns how to make great wheels and every night steals a little of the formula until we can steadily produce solid bones scooter wheels haha

skateboard wheels are completely different than scooter wheels. Skate wheels they put bearings in them and boom done. Scooter wheels you have to bond the urethane to the aluminum core which is no easy task to do CORRECTLY. scooter wheels are the most fucked thing ever. there is never going to be 1 bulletproof wheel that will last forever. its a wear part that after time is going to fuck up no matter what

Dumb question but why can't they make an all urathane wheel with no core?

Common sense. Do you see how flexible metal is now think of practically rubber wheels that would make no sense

 

[SamDybeck]

that 540, the double heel, and the fs board whip on the yellow rail were so sick

Yeah i guess so.

I should also clarify that tree roots are an even bigger problem in making ridiculous sidewalks. Combine the two and oooh, ahh watch out.

Landed my first kinked rail last night, it was the gnarliest feeling going thru the kink
