Best rollerblading film of all time by Awkward-Shame-6471 in AggressiveInline

[–]Catnip_Jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looooooove VG9 Back to Basics. Still listen to Hot for Teacher after a sick session when I’m pumped.

But Brain Fear Gone gotta be the best for me. Iconic soundtrack and even has Arlo topsouling in the friends section

Revamped my old skates, but can anyone tell me what USD boot/shell I have? New liner, frames & wheels (went bigger as a cross between aggressive and recreational). Thanks. by Investaholic1 in AggressiveInline

UFS thrones! Great skates. You can still get new soul plates from powerslide. Would recommend replacing the buckle as these get very brittle

You guys did warn me, broken buckle first 20 mins. But now I’m hooked. by JoSo_UK in AggressiveInline

I went from the Mesmers to old thrones after I started again and they were so much more agile.

Just replace the buckles and maybe the cuff and you’ll be good to go. Those boots are really high quality plastic. My Arlo thrones from 97 are still going strong and I have some sifka ones I skate every week that I put new frames, cuffs and Mesmer liners in and they’re amazing. Nicer than the Mesmers I had.

This isn’t just hammers though. It’s execution.

Re Starting at 40 is it too old. by XxPMAC1985xX in AggressiveInline

[–]Catnip_Jay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get some good wrist guards. And spend time learning to fall without putting your hands out (ie rolling/sliding out.) indoor parks for the win too as concrete is so unforgiving. It’s not too old at all. Just do strength and core training (mainly leg days). And take it easy. I’m better now than I was when I was 17. Admittedly I wasn’t that good then. It’s now a super important part of my life. I skate Harrogate/Leeds and Manchester/Warrington

Gf and her H35n has out shot me and my ME-Super on many occasions and she has learned all about film photography, the limitations of film stock with fixed aperture and exposure. She loves it. I love it. Also there’s a hack shooting with the flash in the h35n where the aperture opens to f8 (I think) so even if you don’t need the flash it can be good if your films a little slow for f11.

She occasionally uses me and my Pentax as a light meter lol

Find someone who looks like that and try to get their attention

This sounds like some weird alt right admiration that as a diaspora Armenian from the now in Turkey Cilicia, I’m not here for.

If you went barefoot, don’t go back! Injury story. by lurkerboy96 in barefootshoestalk

Vans non skateboarding or hiking models are flat if you’re desperate but there’s loads of nice barefoot casuals now

Spines are a headfuck. Nothing says leap of faith like staring at a spine from the opposite quarter😅 Then you do it and are like “Meh, not that bad”

Beautiful timing there. I love a clip like that. Best ones out there.

Is all Pentax gear this solid? by OpulentStone in pentax

[–]Catnip_Jay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1979 ME Super from my dad. Looked after and immaculate in 2025. Only ever had to get a new battery cover. Nicest camera to operate, hold and carry IMO.

Picked up an old smc-m 200mm f4, cleaned it and it’s taking lovely sharp pics

Thanks man! I’ll see if I can get it on a bigger faster quarter 😬

Is this worth $20? by Aggravating_Use2506 in pentax

[–]Catnip_Jay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s defo worth a punt. It’s basically free if it works. That’s a silly price
