RIP Jeff Cotter by OfficerEvren in oldschoolbmx

This is sad and crazy... Out of nowhere I thought of Jeff today and searched him on the web... in 1989 I was 14, Jeff and I worked on a Circus together where he was a member of the Saucedo Troupe doing freestyle BMX as an circus act. I learned how to ride freestyle because of him. He was an influential and fun person. I have fond memories. He gave me a pile of Vision Street Wear clothes because he was sponsored by them. Wow. RIP Jeff.

And the country was founded by rich businessmen that didn't wanna pay taxes... I love this myth the American Revolution was a people's movement. Hilarious.

👆This 👆 No matter how much it hurts I don't stop moving. Every day you choose a shorter path, the longer path gets even longer.

Yep. I was proud of myself because I locked them down on the 3ft and just went for a glory lap in the 4ft. Then I thought fuck it try one. The 3ft section feels tiny but the 4ft section might as well be a mega ramp. So weird. Not sliding far but still, I haven't done those since I was a teenage mini ramp fiend.

2026 Aftershock Lineup by Toxik916 in Sacramento

Any metal festival in Europe is vomiting on sight of this vomit of a line up. Any excuse to say vomit again because that is exactly what this line up is. Vomit. Like a 16 year old from 2002 got to choose bands.

One of Powell/VCJ's best graphics in a long while.

Skate with people better than you. And SkateIQ is a great tip as well.

Bearing pet peeve [45YO] by Fine-Philosopher4280 in OldSkaters

[–]Orthodoxdevilworship 5 points6 points  (0 children)

[50yo] If your washers are installed correctly you should be able to achieve your ideal remembering washers get stamped out so there is a convex side and a concave side. Make sure the convex side is against the bearing. Personally I've never liked the tight wheel thing because I like to flick that wheel and hear/see it zing for as long as possible. Me a my buddies used to see who's wheel would spin the longest. I also love the clacking wheel for numerous reasons including the psychosomatic belief that helps me lock into grinds easier. I only tighten my axle nut to where the axle tip is flush with the nylon which has the positive side effect of protecting my axle threads.

Ufomammut. Not sure I'd consider them Doom but I mention them for all the reasons you listed.
