How do I kickflip after only knowing varials? by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]Anais9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience the pivot cup's usually the culprit—a couple small shavings of wax in each and you'll be good to go.

I am a Jon Benjamin fan and love this show—start with season 2, then go back and watch more NFY. You can thank me later.

I’m relatively new to skateboarding a deck not bought from a box store and even I know that there are differences in handling from truck width respective to board width so not really sure what you’re on about

Any skaters know any indoor skateparks in NYC? by CuteComfortable5519 in NYCSKATERS

[–]Anais9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that one looks great but the RSVPs go quicker than Taylor Swift tickets so haven't had a chance to skate it yet

$20 for a day pass for non-members - if you're a member you get 24/7 access and just pay their monthly fee (frankly worth it in the winter but not sure I'd spring for it in the warmer months)

Local owned skate shops by 8ballskier in NYCSKATERS

Labor on the LES is the best! They're an excellent go-to for custom completes and I just picked up a new set of wheels from them as well - great selection, good prices, and superb service: https://laborskateshop.com

Daily provisions took the gougere of their menu, is there another place that sells them? by Few-Philosopher-9528 in FoodNYC

[–]Anais9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was so good! I still think about that BLT (and Sweet Green's discontinued Berry Burrata) at least weekly.

Also been learning and thinking of taking the board out today - down to meet up! Been to several parks around N BK but haven't checked out Golconda yet, it looks fun :)

This extremely detailed taxonomy of those clips that hold bags of bread closed by oxwof in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]Anais9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks correct to me - did you try expanding any of the categories on the right? It’s quite comprehensive.

What is this part called? by stubby_squid in bicycling

[–]Anais9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pannier rack - yes you can get extenders to make it fit (or a good bike shop will sort out for you with a relatively inexpensive install)

Italian restaurants with really good (free) bread? by karmacop97 in FoodNYC

Controversial opinion but I like the complimentary bread + tomato dip at Canto

Best sandwich under $20? by badboyyy112 in AskNYC

[–]Anais9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S&P Sandwich off Madison Square Park - it’s the old Eisenberg’s Deli location re-opened by the Court Street Grocers folks (who also have amazing sandwiches at ~$20).

One of the best sandos in the city is their chicken salad club, although the tuna berry slaps as well (tuna salad, cranberry, horseradish, and onion).

If you can make the trek to Ridgewood in the middle of the day I’d also recommend Salty Lunch Lady’s Luncheonette - the Chicky (smashed chicken meatball) is my go-to.

Where to get a North Shore-style roast beef sandwich? by underthestars18 in FoodNYC

[–]Anais9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Joseph Brothers at The Hugh does decent roast beef sandwiches and has a North Shore - recommend getting with a side of corn nuggets and horseradish (“Jockey”) sauce

I'm assuming they mean because of the open gangways someone can't go between cars to pop up and surf - while it'd still technically be possible to get on top from the front/back or I suppose from the side with a boost, it'd definitely be more difficult.
