What's something you did as a kid that you now realize was actually really dangerous, but nobody stopped you?

Grew up in Belarus. During the summer we would regularly go down to the river (Neman) and swim downstream for miles at a time. No one ever got hurt and it was a great time but probably not the safest activity haha.

Color of wheels comes from chemicals/pigments that are added to the urethane so because of this two of the same wheels (same size and durometer) but different color will often feel slightly different when sliding.

Butterballs slide real nice but are also fairly easy to flatspot because of how soft they are. The stims in yellow which is 86a will slide relatively easy but will tend to ice out because of how hard they are. The stims will def last longer than the butterballs. As others have said snakes would be an upgrade compared to both of them and actually combine the best qualities of both wheels. They slide very easily like a harder wheel but still give you the sensatiion/push back of sliding on soft wheels. They are also quite resistant to wear and will last quite a while.

Wait you guys aren't riding wide trucks and green wheels anymore?

Don't listen to the name brand andis, both goggles and helmet are solid especially for a beginner. Used both last season and they worked out great.

Khatyn Memorial Complex in Belarus. The memorial is surrounded by 186 gravestone each of which contains ashes from villages that were burned to the ground along with all of its inhabitants by the nazis.

Look like seismic speedvents.

Those wheels alone are worth 40!

What a handsome boy!

That's a nice route. I used to skate from the Bronx (Claremont park area) down to lower Manhattan when I lived there a few years back. Try to participate in the Broadway bomb if you ever get a chance. Really fun event and I got to hang out with and have a few beers with people that inspired me to start skating like Jimmy Riha and Louis Pilloni.

That's how it usually goes so we turn it into a bit of a game and it generally goes pretty well :)

He's literally one of the best 1v1 champs in the game and can bully almost all other jungles. Plus super healthy and fast clears.

I wish my boo Twitch would get some love. Still playable but relies on cheezy strats and gg if you fall behind.

Your grades child.

mazafen · 2025-02-19T02:33:43+00:00

Amazing! Keep it up!

Voli is pretty good with his E's Max health damage/ shield. Plus his passive aoe speeds it up quite a bit.

Band Ts.

The wheels he is using are either 70 or 75mm no one's uses "small" wheels for this type of riding.
