TSG DH kneepads for the win It's worth whatever discomfort, and realistically if you're skating you're not going to feel a damn thing. In terms of elbow protection, I'd honestly say it's probably...

@Matt Needs Wheels    The part about them breaking/disintegrating quickly is true for g-forms where the foam is exposed.    I wear mountain bike knee pads which don't have h...

Dig everything about these except for the don't trips. I have yet to try a set of those that could actually turn.  I'm picking the verge setup, personally. I would maybe slide that footstop a...

@Kurt Derow Swapped out her fronts to 80a and rear to 85a all aps, with the bigger option for the boardside the 43 deg Cals offers, then got riptide pivots, and pats risers wedges and insert bushin...

@Anissa Chavez buy these yellow (85a) for your front truck. https://www.fullcircledistribution.com/products/venom-hpf-caliber-plug-barrel-downhill-bushings Red (90a) for your back. 

Stability comes from technique first and formost. Those cals should be plenty fine up to 30mph for a beginner. Learn to mitigate the wobbles and control the board. It will be worth it in the long r...

Stick to one setup you know is good while youre getting the bassics down. You dont have to change your wheels and bushings and play with wedges until you actually can even tell the difference.

MAKE TIME FOR THE SUNDAY CRUISE  great way to come skate if you aren't so downhill inclined  POPPY PLAZA @2PM

Oh yeah, also soft shell pads disinagrate on impact, can only fall in em a couple times.

I have heard mixed reveiws from other people, but here is mine. I highly recomend the elbow pads for anyone who wants to wear elbow pads. They will soften the blow of falling a little bit and are ...

LDP is manipulating your board by shifting your weight.  This action inherently unbalances your board and upsets your equilibrium.  Any rock or sand or loose shit in the road will exacerb...

@Brigadier +1 for me, I sold off a bunch of "just cruising" boards after I graduated college.  Ironic, given the current state of my quiver.

@Philipp Murx gotcha that's cool!

I found that even with risers and the adjustable plate the Valkyries are just slide trucks. They are meant to drift, so in corners they are already preloaded for sliding. I've ridden the one bushin...

If you are feeling discouraged about downhill skating this writeup might give you some encouragment :) Starting downhill is chalk full of falling for 99% of people, you should expect to be falling...

Idk if this is quite a beginner article, more intermediate to be skating in the dark. We plan on doing a re-org soon and I will likley move this to a better spot that doesn't exist yet if thats cool.
