@Gabriel Fockler What I'd like to see is a reboot of basic tutorial content. Style and body positioning has changed a lot in 15 years, and some of those old videos don't hold up. ...

@Kyle Fugate @Tyler Cooke @Devin Gneiting Y'all win this one, chose your prizes. If one gets claimed, by someone else, its no longer availible.
Big agreement with Kevin's reply above. In order to grow the scene, we need new riders, media catered to learning, and sessions on hills that allow beginners to build their skill. I ...
Two hand tony is kind of a double edged sword. When learning it's easier than a grab toe drift, but it gets you really far off the deck. When you're experienced and stay more on top, the second han...
Needs fresh full grip, but looks like a solid all rounder otherwise! Maybe a riptide inside footstop, unless you're ripping switch standup and need more mobility for the foot.
We gotta make things accessible to the masses. As viral videos get out there, we're seeing the top 10% of the sport take off...as Penny Boards and cheapo supremo Amazon boards have proliferat...
@cstik I'm not arguing the usefulness of pushup slides at speeds, only their usefulness for beginners at speeds beginnners might panic. We're on the same page here ...
I'm not arguing the usefulness of pushup slides at speeds, only their usefulness for beginners at speeds beginnners might panic. I personally have found them very safe up to 35 as th...
@Teplitzskate 🤣 just messin, good read youre also in the right profession for it so chalk it up as a positive
@cstik I have to personally disagree with this sentiment for a few reasons: The first is, I disagree with the idea that 2 hand tonys are safer at all, they are way less stable, their argued benifi...
I disagree, and here's why. Let's put ourselves in the shoes of a downhill beginner. You've just learned sick toeside predrifts, and it's time to throw down. You kick off and start heading down th...
@TRENTON N TETER can't argue with results if it's working then!
@Matt Needs Wheels how do I learn to not lecture people? lmao my wife hates it

I have had great success (borat voice) with taking my friends out to learn toeside predrifts grabing rail as their very first slide. Super short term, as in first 2-3 sessions, they likey fell more...
@Zach Maxon Sweeeet
I saw that! I've been sending it to some of the homies 🤘
@Zach Maxon Bug em to get on. We just made a brand section so ppl can talk about themselves a bit and iteract with skaters in a way that doesn't disapear like 1 on 1 convos, or other social media p...
@Matt Needs Wheels yeah man, it was huge! 10x44 haha. It was fun to take to the park and mess around on and then skate downhill later on. I only skated it on Indy 215s but I bet it would have been ...
@Zach Maxon DAMN thats big, I do like being able to still get it up curbs and on rails, and I'm no @Collin Kruse so I'd have a tough time on that.
@Gabriel Fockler *Joking* Just say you're broke, you can't put a price on quality, plus real skaters only skate the top 3 mm then toss wheels.
@Sk8bored @Gabriel Fockler so far the set up is incredibly fun for my stand up style, really the only reason I did this set up was for standup and some faster skating. I changed the set up a b...
