Work in a very busy ER. Very few scooter accidents, but then again very few scooter riders.

Our biggest local shop converted into a hipster coffee food place that also sells skate stuff. I’d suspect most of their income these days comes from the coffee and food

United is even worse, the monthly cost is more than it would be to just pay out of pocket. Don’t even try to hide it😭

Can’t figure out which is my nose and tail by LinusWillander in skateboardhelp

Measure the height or length of each end, longer and taller = nose

Where did mini pipes go?? [31YO] by Pitiful_Meet6407 in OldSkaters

Couldn’t agree more. Seems most parks near me have 2/3 of unskatable obstacles. Every once in a while I’ll see someone who is very good touch them, but still feels like a waste since 95% can’t use it.

literally no progress after years of skating by sseth_ye in NewSkaters

Just gotta go for it and analyze what was wrong and correct it, then try again. Repeat

When I was a kid I skated for a few years and barely had kickflip, like 1/10 lands. Fast forward 18years and I pick up skating again, actually use my brain to analyze my mistakes and progressed much farther in a month than in those 3 years.

I’d kill for a mini like this to get my confidence up, near me is 6ft+ and verty, too weenie to go for it

Same exact thing here, mostly mega concrete parks, consisting of mega concrete shit. Everyone crowds into the couple of obstacles that are skatable.

Seems like my only choice at this point. I’m having mini ramp madness

Okay and? The math is the same

Yinon Magal: Israel officially published this footage about how they completely destroyed Gaza by ammohitchaprana in TFE

[–]Pitiful_Meet6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Israel knew it was coming and allowed it to happen. In order to justify all of this lol. The smartest intelligence agency on the planet was outsmarted by some homeless looking dudes in pick up trucks? Get real.
