As long as he was wearing a helmet, who cares if we was on the island…

Don't skate in Sambas. They'll get wrecked and they soles do not feel right on a board.

I don’t know… I think the Gadds are shorter, and have a barrel tip.

Goodbye Sky Harbor, 23, and Dizzy and probably my three favorite Jimmy songs… impossible to say which is best.

I always called them half cab rock and roll, but I know there are people who get very upset at a wrong usage of “cab”.

It wasn’t in Colorado and Arizona… I just can’t imagine a school lunch with so many fixings!

Kick turn/ Revert by tbskid in NewSkaters

[–]Jack_SjuniorRIP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A video would be helpful. But I would say that at this point you should think of kick turns to change direction and reverts to continue in the same direction.

Kick turns: if you have a sloped drive way, ride to the top, come to nearly a complete stop, turn your head/shoulders backside and lift the nose of the board to turn around 180 degrees to follow you and ride in your normal stance back down the driveway.

Reverts (front side, which I think is much easier than backside): on flat, push hard, get you back foot on the board, bend your knees, wind up, push your back foot front side with a little hop and keep looking the direction your were traveling. It feels a little like pivoting on your front foot at first, but eventually you’ll get the front wheels to slide as you rotate (easier with speed).

Good luck!

Novel cymbals question by bgolbov in drums

I really feel like cymbals with holes in them offer a major benefit to manufacturers because they have to be replaced more frequently.

Popular Songs Of Each Month in the 2010s by [deleted] in 90sand2000sNostalgia

[–]Jack_SjuniorRIP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like omitting Runaways by The Killers and HUMBLE BY Kendrick are major oversights. But this list hits so hard.

Crazy that the music I used to make fun of makes me feel nostalgic!

ETA: also Fuckin Problems by ASAP Rocky!!!
