Skateboarding

I like it if it's done well, but usually it's not.
I used to have a pair of Sheep Shoes :) They were awesome!!!
Love a pair of Es Muskas I had as well, really really good.

But I went through so many pairs of shoes that I just started skating some Es or America something or others. Always black, always suede, always exactly the same model etc...
Think they were Sari's or something.

Anyone else hate slow-motion in skate vids? So frustrating. Especially that selective type, slows down for the flip, speeds up again, etc.

nah ramped slo mo ftw

its annoying when people ramp really bad clips though

I forgot Muska was on Es! Ha!

The shoes you started buying sounded like the ones I used to skate in, I think they were Square Ones.

No! They were Accels! Best skate shoe ever FACT!

So are we up for something this Saturday/Sunday?
I went to Halfords the other day in Whitechapel which seems a good place to doss around. No roof, but hey, I don't think I'll be going skating in the rain anymore :)

You're nuts....

Don't come at me and tell me Vans are better... They do look better but Accels lasted the longest. The longest a pair lasted me skating was 6mths.

You obviously didn't skate hard enough Max;) And yes, I will come and tell you that Vans are still head and shoulders above the rest in terms of board feel, comfort and lest we forget....style!

^Should I say more....^
Max, give up.
ès shoes are for ponces, just like Rapha.

Didn't skate hard enough?!

Ha ha!

Yeah I love Vans but I just found personally, éS Accels lasted the longest.

Not having a very big shoe budget meant longest lasting = best.

Nah just kidding Max. The Accels lasted a longtime. Sooooo, who wants to go skating then? I've got 100 mini cones and snakeboard! Jambon?

snakeboard, man i'm so going to see what ebay's saying.

Haha, I tried standing on one in a shop the other day, nearly killed myself how anyone aired them off half pipes I will never understand

I had some serious power moves on a snakeboard back in the day.

Fuck. And admitting that^ was not one of them.

Smooth ollies over the hip.

Not a very good array of tricks but a fairly interesting video. I think these guys are at art school....

Put a set of 56mm 82a wheels on my board today and went crusing for first time in along long time.
so much fun actually being able to skate over the semi rough groud and london sidewalks

Wow, huge. I used to ride the hardest 50's I could find.

I've riden alot bigger throught the years,
the key to these ones is the 82a part alot softer than regular wheels but still hard enough to pop
