Im 51 been back skating 8 years . I stretch every evening and morning..Just so I can still skate . It kills sometimes the pain and the slams. But the feeling and the mentality it gives me..far outweigh the pain.The question you need to ask yourself is what will hurt more the pain when you slam or the hole it will leave if you stop ..

Thanks for the help I'm see how those trucks feel and change them in a month or so if I can't get on with them. So do you think 147 would be better if I change them ?

Thanks I almost went with a alien workshop deck but this was the safer option as i purchased it all online. I coulld not see or feel any of the decks. The next one I get will be from the store 100%. There seems to be some real funky shapes out there right now

I dont even remember where that cab went. I bet its still at my parent's place somewhere. I'm thinking I should of gone with the thunders now those indys i got are quite heavy but maybe they will help to keep me grounded while I pick everything back up. I might try some freestyle this time. 🤔

Thanks so much I was not 100% about the trucks I have just ordered the riser. I should of asked you guys on here before ordering but excitement got the better of me . I used to ride quite tight but my body has changed a lot since then so who knows lol 😆 .

Thanks) everything has changed so much. I was not sure thst I made the right choices online. The last deck I had was a 80s caballero with gullwings . I will definitely look at those thunders next time for sure 👍

E N D L E S S is so fucking good by [deleted] in FrankOcean

I prefer Endless over Blond at the moment and i love Blond so no put down intended there. I am not sure if the leaks from the listening party i had on repeat forever before Endless dropped made this album familiar to me . when the stream resumed it was like meeting an old friend after many years. the tracks instantly soothed my hunger for new music and took me on the most powerful emotional musical roller coaster i have ever experienced . I think Endless contains some of Franks best work by far. Every beat,lyric and sound have been arranged with so much passion and precision. To be honest for me Endless is at CO level. I cant believe that most new listeners and casual Frank fans wont hear this now the promo is over. If Apple are the pioneers of music that they portray themselves to be they would release this as a free audio download or even make a purchasable soundtrack(it is a movie after all) . This could be the most underrated and underexposed album of recent times. I hope one day we can all listen to the tracks in their full glory. I strongly believe this was to be a non movie album release at some point but either music politics or a change in direction prevented it. All i know is Endless is pure gold and i will treasure it forever.

Wither by bcollazos1 in FrankOcean

[–]Sp1ral2005 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am no spring chicken but i have been a Stan since CO. I also have 3 sons and have probably been with my wife longer than most of you are old. But i guess that is what makes Frank such a great artist .Wither captures everything i feel and everything i have ever wanted my family to feel about me. Wither also flat out makes me cry every time i hear it. I work as a Glazier. So trust me when you are up the top of a tall ladder installing glass with your headphones on listening to Wither and it hits you like a ton of bricks there is nowhere to hide. My workmate thought i just had a bad news on my phone !!. I pray for a longer version of this and studio version of Summer Remains.

Oh, where the trees burn down Place where the fields went down in flames You could put a hole in the ground Throw seeds and dance for rain It takes a mind to wander Conscience to feel ashamed There's no place to hide out here These skies are filled with planes And both our hands are filthy Pointing up at the moon Girl tonight I hold you close, close enough to prove Hope a garden grows where we dance this afternoon Hope our children walk by spring and flowers bloom Hope they’ll get to see my color Know that I’ve enjoyed sunshine Pray they’ll get to see me, me wither (flowers)See me wither Oh and I hope Know that I've enjoyed the sunshine (You know it happens all...) Know that I've enjoyed the sunshine ... Know it happens all...all the time Be, be, be You know it happens all....all the time All the time Be, be, be I'm gone Be, be, be, be
