what height trucks for 59mm wheels?

I bought an 8.6" deck and 149 indie trucks like a retard when i first got into skating and realized its way too big. would it be retarded to get like an 8" or 8.25" deck and use it with the same 149 indie trucks or would it cause problems?

Those trucks would be fine on an 8.25. Some skaters like their trucks to be a hair wider than the board.
on an 8 inch deck they're reaching too wide territory

this is why skateboarding really needs to be gatekept from the corporate world. pro skaters need to form a union or something too, not getting paid for weeks/months is just unacceptable on top of nobody having healthcare.

There are so many stories of skate companies being managed like total shit, if not being outright scams where the riders get fucked. You'd think at least things getting more corporate would mean better business practice.

pro skaters should have real jobs aside from being pro skaters, if they had to do this we wouldnt have so many faggot losers in skate culture

how fucked has skateboarding become?
One of the most popular fucking skateboard faggots is a furry. Hes famous for talking shit and being a furry faggot. How do kids see this as okay? Is it just all child fans who dont know better?? who the fuck watches that boney faggot talk and cry?? i see you homosexual dick suckers dick ride him so much like ooh i just listened to his 1hour fucking video talking about other men.
inb4 he gets arrested for child rape in the next 2 years top
skateboarding youtubers' only fans are children you just cant let a grown ass man whos attected to animals and fursuits be around children. Those are not normal urges and lead to other worse acts of lust.

BUT TODAY
I finally got some new Thunders set up. Felt back at home. We are back Thunder bros.

You should have tried ventures.

Finished watching it tonight. It's fucking sick. Kinda wish I hadn't seen so much of it on Thrasher already, but the first half (where most of the "new" sections are) is amazingly edited.

I hate to be such a weeb, but Japanese street skaters are just different. Their trick bags and obstacles are all weird as fuck and they make old school tricks look techy as fuck. I'm going for the first time in November and I really hope I can squeeze in a few days to skate Tokyo and Osaka.


>>138503
What the other guys said; learn how to fall/kneeslide. Other than that, just focus on pumping and carving in every direction for now. There's not a lot to say about it if you already know how to pump up and down a halfpipe, it just takes a while to develop the sense for it.

I'm suggesting it now. If you're going to skate bowls and wear pads, it only makes sense to wear a helmet too.

unironically mar sure you get a certified helmet. those rat shit companies sell non certified helmets as well, those things can not take any impact at all. if and when you do eat shit, make sure you don't break your head.
the last thing posters in these threads need is more brain damage.

I've had two helmets: a standard Protec one and a Triple 8 Sweatsaver. The Protec one eventually just fell apart despite not taking any real impacts (the glue holding the outer shell to the foam inner just disintegrated) and was mostly a piece of ill fitting shit. The Triple 8 has been MUCH better so far. Feels way sturdier, is better padded and comes with a swappable pad so you can adjust to your head size. Definitely wish I'd saved my money and just got this one first.

>>138526
When I'm doing new shit the least I can do is wear a helmet

Ok I went to see a Plan B demo in Miami. I don't really like the company but it was a nice day out, all of the team was really chill. It was neat. Those guys are really good. Pat Duffy was skating around too, that was cool to see. I got a big poster signed by everyone lmao.
HOWEVER
John Dilorenzo was also there, just skating around off to the side. He stole the show. His style is so sick, you guys have to see him somehow, his kickflips are insane in person.
Sorry no pictures this time, I was too busy having fun.

It was very relaxed. A lot of people went to the other side of the park and kept skating, they ignored the demo side of things entirely lol.
I've mentioned this before but for all of the posters that haven't been to a demo before, you should go. It's a lot of fun.

Ollie up a manny pad for the first time today. Was a fucking battle. Found going slow and making up the distance in air time worked better than going at speed. So fucking tired.

Nice. I can never get over how god damn crusty it is over there. It's not just the fact everything is old and falling apart due to lack of funding, but the shift in seasons makes even the "new" bricks and concrete super rough and displaced. It's no joke to skate that.

Hey Venturabro... i'm supposed to be taking the senpai camping at Emma Wood beach some time soon. I'm not 100 percent sure if i'll have time to skateboard but i might squeeze in a morning session. I don't want to drive more than 15 minutes or so from where we'll be. It looks like i don't have a ton of great options. Is Hobert my best choice?
Here's a bad boardslide and a tiny ollie

>>139064
Bro why are you talking like that? What kind of person even begins to type something like that out?
I know you're still doing your angry poster gimmick but you need to look at yourself.

>>139059
Hey man if I were coming to the beach and I didn't want to drive more than 15 mins away from the campground I probably wouldn't even bother skating. West park has the best obstacles - it has a flat bar, and a manual pad. Both obstacles have shitty run-ups and the rest of the park is fucked to skate. Also West park is the closest one to Emma Wood. All 3 skateparks in Ventura are similarly designed and they are all pretty worthless.

Ojai is 25 mins away and super fun. That's where I usually skate. It's also a nice place to take your lady for shopping/food if she's into that kinda thing.

Carpenteria skatepark is in the process of being built and would only be about 10 mins away from you... but all this rain is stopping them from being able to pour the concrete. Oh well, hopefully when you come to the beach in summer it'll be done and we can have some sessions there. It's going to be a sick park.

Regardless if you want to meet up for a quick skate at West park or Ojai (if you can make the drive) let me know and I'll come and hang out.

>>139074
yeah i was seeing them all online and they all have that same weird small circle of a park thing going.
The main reason for the time limit is because the kids will be with us plus wife's pregnant again so i can't leave her alone out there for too long .
I guess I can just enjoy some breakfast on the beach. i'll have to find time to make the trip to just skate though, i've talked to my brother about Ojai before so its already something i've planned on doing- i'll keep you posted on when

Shit. I keep forgetting to resize it.

Ive been trying to kickflip for months now, actually feels impossible at this point.

>>139092
Firstly, do not give up anon. Never. It happens. Kickflips are an especially pesky trick.
Secondly, if you film yourself you will be able to study your technique.
What will usually happen is like this, if your front foot is not catching the board or landing underneath, then the problem is your flicking technique.
If only your back foot is not getting on the board, then this is a matter of pure commitment, and actually jumping up and with the board to land on top of it.
I believe in you anon.

>>139103
I can flip the board and catch it with my back foot fairly consistently. My front foot will flick the board and just rocket to the ground immediately. I feel like i flick out but i guess not enough. I will try to film myself.

Thank you anon

>>139104
Slice through your nose with your toes. Imagine a line going across your board.
Do not flick down, visualize yourself doing a ninja kick.

whats a good starter skateboard to get? im 23 and idk if its too late but i rly wanna learn how to skate since my eyesight and balance was fucked as a kid but its a lot better now as an adult

8.25 size deck, independent trucks size 144, spitfire classic wheels size 54, bones reds bearings. Black grip tape, don't get no colorful shit.

You can get all this shit on skatewarehouse or you can go to your local skate store or Zumiez if you have one. Should cost you between $150 and $200.

>8.25 size deck, independent trucks size
This is my current set up and I hate it. I'm going back to lower trucks and a wider board.

I injured my ankle 4 days ago and i was wondering if it's okay to skate again or if i should wait a few more day. I'm still a beginner so i was trying to sw heelflip and after 4 tries of the board flipping perfectly and not committing I went all in and the board landed primo, my left heel landed on the wheel then slipped and my toe fell into the ground. I read online that stage 1 ankle sprains( which is what I assume i have, but i have not seen a doctor) take 1-2 weeks to heal but mine is almost fine, It only hurts slightly when I flick my ankle inwards as fast as i can, as of yesterday my foot is still slightly swollen but i can feel and the bones underneath the skin now .

>>139121
you broke that shit if its swelling. a sprain would swell for 1-2 days then bruise if its bad.

>>139084
wait a sec the size is right, what's wrong with it?

>>139121
No don't skate yet. Hold on a few more days or else you could make it worse.

>>139121
you probably can skate it fine if you wait til the weekend to skate. The only thing is that if you land a little wrong on that same ankle , it will hurt probably just as bad as it did before. This is what i deal with.
you probably should wait til your shit is fully healed. But if you're like me and are ok with "its good enough" then you're going to keep feeling it in your ankle

>>139121
Grades are like autism. It's just a scale with no real accuracy. Check out this vid -
https://youtu.be/RpqncGpxuTA
Just come back when you feel comfy to. Ease into it. When you are compensating for a weak ankle you're more likely to hurt another joint.
>>139127
I sprained my ankle bad (tore ligaments) and it stayed swelled for like 5 weeks.

>>139161
I'll wait until friday or saturday, sorry to hear that you have to deal with those ankle injuries.

>>139163
Thanks anon , really insightful video

I wish I could skate without drinking

I wish I could do anything without drinking

dumb noob question - when you ollie into a grind or stall or whatever, let's say 5050 for example, do you do exactly the same kind of motions you would if you were to just pop one on flat or going over something etc. or is it slightly different? I want to try to ollie into a 5050 or boardslide, but I feel like it's going to be impossible to land in a grind and keep my balance. Not sure if that's just a confidence thing or whether I just need to get better ollies or what.

>>139215
you do a regular ollie but you gotta also shift your shit to the ledge so you can get on and balance it out. Its not a super hard trick or anything. I would say you wouldn't even need big ollies down you just need to have very good control of the ollies you do have. If your ollies are fucked and uneven and your feet come off the board, work on those things first.

What wheels do you guys ride on real rough pavement on non cruiser boards? was looking at some bones atf filmers but worried theyd be too soft for tricks, but getting real sick of the shitty pavement around where i live.

>>139262
Where have you been? They made Bones Dragon wheels exactly for that.

>>139215
You pretty much do them like normal and anticipate the shift in weight with your upper body (so you lean a little bit forward for a grind or slide so that you do whip out backwards). That's assuming you land your usual ollies with equal pressure on either side and don't land too off centre.

Probably best to start off with little 5050 stalls onto curbs then work up to little grinds.

just get some hi trucks or some risers if youre worried about wheel bite, can be a headache searching for specific measurements of trucks, especially with companies not being standardized in height with what high or low trucks even are.

i dont skate with pads because i dont know how to fall on them but i have more than enough speed and have accidentally slashed the pool coping but its pretty sketchy and it requires lots of speed and the moment of lightfootedness where the board is just doing its thing and you're just praying it comes back into transition i also got hung on back accidental disaster and ran it out but i have been spookinated since, tips?

How many consecutive ollies can you do before getting winded? I feel like I am out of shape, I start coughing and hacking and my chest gets tight when I practice.

>>137389
you're half right. skateboarding needs to be gatekept from anyone trying to make money off of it - including skaters. skateboarding is a art, you do it because you love it, not for $$$

>>139360
Maybe 20-30?

Need help, started skateboarding and I have trouble with always leaning forward or backward, never being able to stand straight without steering to one side. I try to stand properly on bolts but I think it's some balance issue associated with flat feet or something.

>>139389
Nigga it’s a balance issue because you don’t know how to balance. Tighten your core the next time you’re riding around and adjust your shoulders properly

>>139389
Yes, or something

Describe the trick more.

>>139415
you don't hold the stall you just get the back trucks on the coping and spin one rotation and drop back in

>>139416
You have any video examples of the trick?

>>139419
fakie frontside 5-0 stall but you spin right around 360 in one motion.
https://youtu.be/4tgGeMtPyYw
This is the closest I can find but instead of stopping to rock you keep going all the way around.

>>139423
Like while in a stall you're rotating 360, or is it more broken down like you go into it fakie, frontside 5-0 stall, rotate 180 backside into a backside 5-0 stall, then backside 180 again and land it switch?

>>139430
while in the stall you're rotating 360

>>139431
I would call it a fakie fs 360 5-0 stall, but I'm sure someone else would call it something else. Hell, if it were me personally I would just give it a silly nickname and call it a day. You able to do those? I want to see some footy of that.

>>139432
I haven't skated in a few years but yeah I could do that. I've got a new board coming and I want to learn it again. It wasn't hard, I sucked and I couldn't backside or blunt.

Hell yeah, my dude. Can't wait to see it.

>>139448
Yeah, I've only ever heard them called pivots when they're on the coping. I know it should technically be considered a different trick given you're using your trucks instead of your wheels, but there you go. 5-0s need to be held, pivots are one motion. Some people find them harder than 5-0s, but you can do them around the same time as learning any kind of truck stall or grind.

Fakie 360 is sick though.

How was everyone's weekend? Got a couple small wins, skated with my pals, went to the jam at Hop King. My boomer might be showing, but I genuinely cannot believe how far skating has come in the last 15 years. People were consistently pulled out video-tier shit all night at the jam. Younger people don't know how fucking good they are.

Are any old skaters in awe like I am?

>>139350
To avoid hang ups when you're learning to skate pool coping try doing grinds that are more of a long sweeping grind instead of an up and down pivot. And if you get to the point where you're getting on top of the coping then remember you have to lean way further back than you're used to so the weight is off your front truck and it doesn't catch. Also having bigger wheels like 56mm+ helps. Wearing pads and a helmet gives you confidence too, I wear them when trying new tricks although I think my style is better without them so I've been trying to go without them more often

>>139461
Dude wtf?? I guess you'd expect this in LA tho
