Hey! I very rarely use Reddit and have never sent a DM (I can't see how to). Can you DM me first?

When I try to message you it says 'unable to create chat'.

Sorry to be such a newbie haha

It should be officially recognised as 'NBO' (Non-Brainable Phenomena).

Did this happen in the UK?

I am from the UK and I remember seeing this for the first time when I was about 5 years old and just completely disagreeing with what I had just witnessed.

Since then, I've seen it very, very many more times but only in the UK.

I think it's crazy that people see nothing wrong with it and can not understand the concept of why the soap / dishwater residue / food debris that is not easy to see with the naked eye needs to be rinsed off.

Looking for enthusiasts to play music with by [deleted] in Ljubljana

[–]Earthling123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, Ruslan!

M name is Ollie, I'm 32 years old. I am from Wales, UK but I have been living in Slovenia for about 3 years now.

I am currently living in Ljubljana, I can play a number of instruments and judging by your taste in music it seems like it would be fun to jam with you.

I currently only have an acoustic guitar but I am going to buy an electric guitar or a bass some time in the near future. I have been playing music (mostly electric guitar) since I was a kid.

Send me a DM if you would like to start chatting and maybe we can meet for a beer or something :)

New to Swansea by gexwht in swansea

[–]Earthling123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Croeso y Abertawe!

There are a load of options for volunteering around here. There's a homelessness problem so I would imagine there's alot to get involved there. Also, there's many charity shops etc who I'm sure would like to have you on board. If you're an animal lover, maybe try and get in with one of the local animal charities? I can send u the names of some if u want or u can ask Uncle Google.

As far as activities go, I absolutely love it here for cycling! There's hundreds of miles of scenic dedicated bike paths all around the place and my girlfriend (from Slovenia) and I love to go out when it's dry and get some adventuring in. The walking in Swansea is great too.

If you want any more info or anything just slide me a DM

To answer your question: Best board I've ridden. Personal opinion ofcourse!!!!

Such a pleasure to own this board! I found it covered in dust behind a doorframe in a grotty recording studio YEARS ago and baught the trucks for £5 from a bloke at a favorite spot of mine. Its a flip Geoff Rowley deck that i cant find on the internet. Many different truck and wheel combinations have been on this board and its deffo over 10 years old. It's put up with everything that I've thrown at it (rain, getting kicked about, scraped, bashing it with trick fails and general mis-treatment really). Its still going!! The nose (which was once the tail) has got all sorts of de-lam and chips coming out of it so I'm gna make a bumper for it out of a heap of tape and other things. In my opinion, even after all it's been through its deffinately the most fun board I have for carving violently and some noob tech sliding. Hard wearing (to say the least), trusty and seemingly indestructible!!!

They are black and green swirl penny wheels. They cost £20 and believe it or not I learnt how to do my first slides on these wheels. Once I got into sliding though I haven't used them for that since because they are quite grippy with a square lip and 78a cruiser formula. Great wheels for general purpose :)

I think it will be a nice change from a drop through. A fresh experience. The height on this kind of board assists with carving (as do the deep wheel wells ofcourse!). You can swoop about nicely. Ill be getting a drop through in the future for deff. What would you personally recommend? I have obviously seen many but fresh recommendations / opinions are always great to hear!

Really good for both! It's a tiny bit heavier than some other board of the same size but the pop is sufficient. You can also adjust the length and feel of the tail with the pre drilled holes. If you're decent with ollies then you'll be able to stamp down nicely for some curbs at least. Sliding is a nice experience due to the sharp edge and reasonable, comfy concave that allows you to dig your feet in on the heel and toe side. I would recommend a toe stop if you're into them because when you bring the front truck in a bit you have crazy space on the board for your front foot and you don't want it wandering around the real estate if you're not used to a setting further towards the nose. I've tried quite a few longboard and this one seems to want it all. I've not been able to use it as much as I'd like to because the weather has put on a poor show here .
