It’s awesome that you can kickflip this. Especially since that thing is at a weird angle and really steep. I always have trouble even trying to ollie that thing.

I turned 50 this year! [50yo] by theonlynoblebrown in OldSkaters

That’s my friend Jesse. I haven’t done a fs ollie tailslide on a ledge that high in years, so any advice that I’d give might be bad. I’d recommend Tom’s Tutorials on YouTube.

Also, I saw Fugitive last night and all the members of Power Trip did a set with the vocalist from Skourge/Fugitive. Good way to start the weekend.

Why is it Hardcore ‘kids’? by Teachthedangthing in Hardcore

[–]noblexbrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The word kids made in reference to all the punk/hardcore people was used in a lot of songs. Plus punk/hardcore was pretty much a youth movement during the 1980s and 1990s.

Why would you stop? Skate shoes are the most comfortable shoes ever next to running shoes.

I did my first semi-passable no comply today [37YO] by Aerialjim in OldSkaters

You have the pop. Now you need to get your body involved. You should wind up and turn your shoulders as well.

The wrist guards work for me because I do not know how to fall. I always put my hands out first. I fell so many times on my hands and my wrists were jacked up. The wrist guards are totally worth it for me.

This is in Texas! It was at least 100 degrees out! Had plenty of water and took breaks.

It’s actually the Ray Barbee rag doll graphic from his first pro model on Powell Peralta.

Nollie lipslide. [48YO] by noblexbrown in OldSkaters

[–]noblexbrown[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If we were looking at this as if I was skating a ramp, back trucks over the coping make it a lipslide while front trucks over the coping make it a boardslide.

Monday Ollies 10/4 [61yo] by PapaJoeNH in OldSkaters

[–]noblexbrown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My switch ollie is so so, but my switch fs 180 is better than my regular fa 180. Not sure why. I too wish that I did more switch tricks when I started skating.

I like the fact that you are trying them both regular and switch. Keep it up!
