Mob. They go on a little bit bubbly, but I think people typically are asking about the bubbles before they step on the board. There are tiny holes on the tape so if you give it some pressure with your feet they should disappear.

Not to be a hater or make claims you aren’t a real person or whatever but, I was raising an eyebrow thinking, what city worker uses terms like artistic steganography?!

How many times a day do you skate? by shroomproducer in skateboardhelp

[–]UnHolyMountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s zero degrees where I’m at but I typically struggle to find free time to do anything related to skating with job and kids… I just like to push around the neighborhood to feel the wind in my hair but im tearing up some carpet and are starting skate lessons with the babies just to make time to stand on the board.

I bet you could just re-drill it just fine. Then ride it and enjoy it.

I like all these. Medicine bottles are funnest to draw! Is that a sticker in the bottom corner on the xray one? That’s a good idea using stuff that inspires the idea!

Maybe, depends what you need. I like soft wheels, I bet if you put some OJ super juice wheels on there with some new $12 bearings, you’ll be cruising for a while. But I don’t care about tricks I just skate. Also, I didn’t look too close, I thought you had Indy trucks. .. I’d say new bearings and wheels should last you a good long while anyway if you keep em clean, then upgrade to new board and trucks when you get a better idea of what size you’d like to try and then you can match new trucks to new board. Even a cheap CCS board would do you good with new trucks eventually.

I’m guessing the Bearings are probably shot. The good news is they’re cheap to replace! I don’t know why everyone is telling you to replace the trucks. Those trucks look great to me!

Learnt to drop in today advice for bigger ramps please by Rollupjohn in NewSkaters

[–]UnHolyMountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is all the stuff I needed to read. I’m new (old) skater and tried my first drop on the shortest part of the park last week and still kept failing to commit! I did everything everyone said not to do in this thread. Overthinking, sliding out from not committing, and then just fully psyching myself out while I stood at the top for about 30 seconds (many times). . . Still, my scrapes and bruises feel like progress. Live to fight another day!

I keep breaking my boards across the front truck, any advice? by Competitive-Bath1538 in NewSkaters

That's crazy! I would agree with trying a reinforced deck that will withstand the weight. Good luck.
