When trying to find the right skateboard for your needs, you want to understand how each part works. Such boards look cool and work well for any kind of basic skateboarding. Vintage: The nose of a vintage, or old school, board is wider than the back. If you’re skateboarding at a skate park, the shortboard is perfect for people with a bit of experience. Shortboard: The length of the shortboard is shorter than normal, making it easier to pop the board into the air and complete tricks. Some cruiser skateboards are called longboards. It gives you just the right level of maneuverability for riding on streets rather than doing tricks.



While shopping, you can select from a few different skateboard types:Ĭruiser: A cruiser-style skateboard deck is made for riding over long distances and for transportation. Skateboard length is less important than width when seeking the right fit. Longer skateboards give you a little more stability, while shorter boards provide more maneuverability. Skateboards are typically between 31 and 33 inches long. He fucking almost died trying to 50-50 a handrail that's been lipped, 5-0'd, feebled, switch heeled over and a whole bunch of other shit (that spots blown out as fuck).Some people choose to replace the original truck on the skateboard because they want a custom color or a design that accommodates specialized wheels. As for the famous spots he skates, he does get shown up, and often.Īnd this is just bullshit: "all the gaps and tricks he does are huge and amazing". In fact, what the hell does that even have to do with my point? Him doing tricks on spots I've never seen other people skate in no way shows how he does or doesn't get shown up. My point wasn't that's he's never done anything impressive. I know he had a 5-0 down Point Loma in one part and fucking James Brockman switch 50'd that for a Transworld interview before he was anybody.Īs for the trick you named, that proves nothing at all. If I really wanted I'm sure I could find a few more famous spots that's he been shown up on. And its not like I only named two tricks, those are just some spots that came to mind. Who cares how many spots I name? There's proof right there that he's not as good as a lot of other skaters. I said he's "relatively shitty", as in, "in relation to other pros, he's not that good". Theres no way you can say he's a bad skater. Look at the huge set he does at the end of Destroy Everything Now, the handrails he does, all the gaps and tricks he does are huge and amazing. But anyone with a brain knows that.īecause you only named two spots. He has so many tricks in his video parts at spots that have been in other videos with way better tricks on them, and usually after that better footage has been released.Īnd yeah, Sheckler is fucking sick.
No poser skate board stickers for sale pro#
Personally my least favourite pro would be Jason Adams ( well thats the first person that coems to mind) i dont know why he just looks goofy on a skateboard i know he is original and amazing i just don't like his parts.Ĭorey Duffel is a relatively shitty skater though. He didn't join them to get the most money.ĭuffel is a good skater, yes he doesn't wear the coolest clothes but who gives a fuck, if you don't like him because of that then fine but it has nothing to do with any of his skating abilities. Also Element and adio are just 'poser' brands cos Bam made them so big. He has awesome style who cares if he just skates at the one park he fucking rips it to shreds. thats bullshit he won the globe world cup when he was 12 or something and came in the top ten in other years.Īlso Bam margera is an excellent skater he just has a life apart from skating. someone said they hated him cos he was only popular cos of one x games. Have any of you seen Sheckler's new footage it's unbelievably good he is amazing and gonna be one of the best skater's of all time and you hate him cos he was good when he was young.
