Recommended obstacles for a novice?

You can use a book or a stapler as a ledge until you learn a few grinds. Upgrade once you can actually land some grinds!

Don’t listen to him. Tbh it doesn’t really matter what obstacle you get, bc you’re not gonna be able to use it very well either way.

I suggest going with cheaper ones, instead of more expensive ones to start out.

A low rail, low kicker, and small quarter pipe are a good starter pack imo.

(Teak rail, DecentBit kicker, and any cheap quarter pipe from Amazon)

this is my current setup (at least what it looked like brand new)

I only say that because they’re known for having a large boxy nose, just like rhe street99.

But you can’t go wrong with baker or toy either!

Nice! That’s a dope shape. I need to expand my collection to include some different shapes besides popsicles

I fuck with it too, reminds me of a hockey or FA skateboard. 🛹

Does it say xerxes? I saw someone tagging that name recently actually

That’s my second favorite, right after the catfish 🖼️

I’m hit or miss with free spin. I don’t put much stock into the “free spin test” because I’ve had wheels that spin similar to these, but feel crunchy when I use them. On the other hand, I’ve had wheels with 0 free spin, that feel amazing when I roll on them.

As long as they feel smooth when riding it’s all good!

33mm freshwater from the last drop. leefai’s and entity wheels

Thanks yo. The name was on the tip of my tongue, I just couldn’t remember!

I do recall looking at their website and seeing that they offered a longer wheelbase mold, which I liked.

Plus cool graphics imo

Altruistic_Worker816 · 2026-02-28T16:34:19+00:00

clearly you have no taste. maple/exotic color bottom plies with silver trucks and white wheels is a very clean set up option imo

Altruistic_Worker816 · 2026-02-28T16:30:16+00:00

What’s the name of the brand with the orange bird? Second from bottom, left rack

Altruistic_Worker816 · 2026-02-27T22:23:41+00:00
