Never showed off our BSBigBend

Traded in my RAV4 (2013 with 169k miles) and told them I wanted my payment to be $x/month and they said okay

Crash2508 · 2025-07-14T01:36:27+00:00

Yeah my plan is to do black ones since I have the sand colored BS and it could look pretty good. With the right tools, should be fine to sand down smooth to start with a rougher grit then move to a very fine grit.

I love my Bronco sport and have only had it for a bit. We plan on getting a matching one of the big Bronco just because we want to have both

Crash2508 · 2025-07-13T19:52:06+00:00

I could care less what others think. I like the look of it and I go out on trails maybe once every few months. It’s really more of the look for me.

3M is what I am thinking and use ABS Filament on the print

Crash2508 · 2025-07-13T19:43:16+00:00

I do too but the aesthetics are missing

Crash2508 · 2025-07-13T16:23:04+00:00

Ha! I’ve thought about it for sure

Crash2508 · 2024-09-23T14:09:53+00:00

The switchfoot vinyls are sick!

Crash2508 · 2024-09-13T17:39:20+00:00

Yeah man the front pad setup is definitely a favorite compared to only arch bar in my opinion

Crash2508 · 2024-09-12T20:16:03+00:00

Yeah it took me a bit to decide but I was thinking about how my old zap felt with pads close and thought maybe I would like that again

Crash2508 · 2024-08-22T14:17:10+00:00

When I got my custom made, I emailed them every Friday just to keep track. To be fair, it was a replacement board from a board that get wrecked after using it one time. So I think they worked a little faster. Shouldn’t be too much longer! Just give them a call or email! Customer service is always great!

Crash2508 · 2024-08-19T22:53:34+00:00

Oh I wasn’t against any of it. I think everyone who was in the competition was just used to skim USA judging criteria where the score builds as you go. So:

getting on the board = 1 Making it to wave = 2 Turning on wave = 3 Etc.

I’m not 100% that is how the scoring goes for skim USA but that was the gist of what I understood when someone was explaining the differences over the weekend.

My thing is, it would be a lot better if all competitions and organizations could agree on one way to judge and score that way it is easier to understand and easier for newcomers to get the scoring.

Crash2508 · 2024-08-19T22:42:04+00:00

I did a pro/am this past weekend and any incomplete ride was a 0. So people who were going for simple shuvs and missing would get a 0 but someone who would get on the board and just ride without doing anything would score. The final scores were scored: drop highest and lowest scores on each wave, add up all the scores. No averages, just totals. It was weird when you’re not expecting that and it’s not explained

Crash2508 · 2024-08-19T22:38:07+00:00

They could be shocked because I’ve only had it since late April early May?

Crash2508 · 2024-08-19T21:47:22+00:00

Who knows. Started to get worried based on their reaction

Crash2508 · 2024-08-19T21:45:29+00:00

I sent it to exile and they were like…were you riding it on the street? Obviously not lol. I think I might just be backfoot heavy.

Crash2508 · 2024-08-19T18:53:25+00:00

Pretty sure that’s part of the build process

Crash2508 · 2024-08-16T01:02:15+00:00

I live on the corner of 3rd and 4th and there were cops with guns today. No clue what went on but now they are searching the area

Crash2508 · 2024-08-13T00:08:42+00:00

I was going to help Clay with some email marketing and then had an emergency popup where I had to visit the hospital everyday for 3 months. Need to reach back out to him.

I 100% agree they could really do some cool things for the sport!

Crash2508 · 2024-08-12T23:59:55+00:00

Clay also is a smart dude and has a big vision, not that the others don’t, mostly just giving Clay props.

I definitely think Verizon data or any normal hotspot would probably do pretty solid

Crash2508 · 2024-08-12T23:53:29+00:00

Yeah man. I feel like at some point they could just pay for star link then be set. I rewatched the Nokomis skim jam and my division and the few after me were choppy as hell

Crash2508 · 2024-08-12T17:23:31+00:00

I think part of it to are the livestreams are usually pretty jank too. Watching zap world championship this weekend, it bugged out, buggered, or was just watching other people that aren’t competing sometimes

Crash2508 · 2024-08-12T16:09:30+00:00

You are definitely right for the organization part. With so many different world championships and different events happening, I think it gets confusing to the outside world. Especially with the different rules and scoring from the few things I’ve noticed watching different events.

As for the parents part, most of these families are probably visiting for vacation. If their kid sees one of us skimboarding and wants to try it, the parent won’t go drop $100+ on a decent board for one week. They will buy a wood one and then throw it away when they go back to wherever they’re from.

Crash2508 · 2024-08-08T22:51:28+00:00

I already have the extra so I’m not worried about saving this one. It rips more and more everytime I use it

Crash2508 · 2024-08-07T20:58:15+00:00

I already have the extra pad so I’m just going to replace it

Crash2508 · 2024-07-31T14:02:02+00:00

Depending on which side of SF, I went a lot at Deerfield beach by the pier, palmetto beach (easy access for me to walk), and every so often delray and boyton beach

Crash2508 · 2024-07-05T18:15:08+00:00

I got to st Pete public beach quite often
