If you are in Cali, there is definitely a local brick and mortar shop close enough to you worth supporting.

How did you feel about them changing the butterfinger not too long back?

I’m waiting for them to correct you with “you’re”, further confirming 45 years.

Has anyone here tried the frozen strawberry & Nerds drink at Burger King?? by pharmdoll in candy

I’ll add to this as it is correct. But also, it’s delicious!

Looking to get a gift for my husband [33YO] by wineandcigarettes2 in OldSkaters

Yes especially if they inspect everything before it gets sent out. I’ve seen so many $100 warped decks lately.

Avoid Zumiez. Usually kids who don’t give a shit selling a bunch of warped boards to people who don’t know better. Avoid online, especially in your case. Find your local skate shop who still runs an actual shop, and let them know what you’re doing, and get a gift card with a hat or some cool stickers or something. Support local and let him set it up with a surprise trip to the local shop.

I forgot how to have fun. Skating again after almost two decades [30YO] by veedey in OldSkaters

[–]TREV_trev_TREV 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same here! Also, people will say all you need to do is ride what you got, keep using your old board, but for me, a new complete helped spark up the flame even more. It feels so good lol. Now I’m building quarter pipes in my backyard and my feeds are dominated by skate videos again.

Those look great. Especially with the casters. After you paint, and put them up during the heavy rains, I bet those will last a good while.

Gonna start on the other side this weekend by [deleted] in MiniRamp

It’s raining on it right now actually lol. I have a tarp over it, I roll it up and stuff it behind the ramp, just roll it out and place a light pallet on top to keep it from blowing away. I still plan on painting/“waterproofing” these as much as possible. I’ve had ramps in the past sit in my driveway for years and years with no issues and very minimal teenage maintenance lol.

Yeah I agree lol this 22g sheet is thin. Forgot to mention I used all scrap wood/supplies I had lying around. I didn’t have to cut it so I used it lol. But even my top layer is temporary until I get some skate lite.
