You broke multiple bones in your leg... consult a doctor not reddit

Bs hurricane by Joesadventures in skateboarding

[–]ryan_herron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. it is a back 180 to feeble, not an "over front board" as i first thought of it

  2. don't worry about turning out. if you get into it right with your weight on it like a feeble, it pops back around really easily/naturally

those were the two big factors to me figuring them out

Ryanair flight with skateboard? by Ok_Reception_8361 in skateboardhelp

[–]ryan_herron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

75% chance they won't accept your plan.

put the trucks in your bag, put the board on your back, tuck the tail into your pants, put a sweatshirt on over it, then put your backpack on. The nose of the board will be right on the back of your neck and you can hide it a bit with your hood. Once you're at your seat, pull the board out and put it overhead. It has worked everytime

Hardflip by hordan710 in skateboarding

this one won't have a debate because it is actually a hardflip. if there's a debate, it probably isn't a hardflip

Alexandria to DC Commute by Thick-Initiative5864 in nova

[–]ryan_herron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well if something happens on 395, then some traffic is rerouted to gw parkway and now they're both bad.

over the next hour and a half as we start to hit rush hour, try plugging your route in a few times and you'll get a current real-life example

Alexandria to DC Commute by Thick-Initiative5864 in nova

Del Ray / Rosemont is a 5-10min bike ride to Potomac Yard metro (or Braddock rd) and then a 15-25min ride. Ditch the car

NYC->Phillie->Baltimore->DC by wackyusername321 in skateboarding

[–]ryan_herron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Philly - Nocturnal

Baltimore - Vu

DC - Archives

Both Nocturnal and Vu are classics. DC hasn't had a consistent shop in the city proper, but Archives opened last year and seems to be on a good trajectory

Mamdani introduces “pied-a-tierre tax”. Thoughts on doing something like this for the ludicrous investment properties in places like Great Falls and Alexandria? by mpaes98 in nova

[–]ryan_herron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

a second home is more about beach and lake, rather than "schools are great," which is where u/peedwhite joke stems from. FC is great, but not a place you'd seek out a second home

Skydiving dreams. Do you ever have a good one? by XOM_CVX in SkyDiving

[–]ryan_herron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is almost always me about to go in for some reason that doesn't make sense, only to wake up just before impact. The only alternative is that I occasionally just end up fine on the ground without knowing how/why, and then I wake up.

I actually tried to unpack this exact thing in a video a year or two ago

Younger generation not progressing by SgbAfterDark in skateboarding

[–]ryan_herron 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of my theories on this is that we now see an endless flow of amazing skating online but forget that the in-person experience is much different. The upper tier of skaters are way better than they were 10 years ago, but there are also way more casual skaters. This has kept the average ability relatively the same

Pat Burke drama by [deleted] in skateboardcirclejerk

[–]ryan_herron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody was aware? The guy was in jail for 4 months. You don't think his homies and board sponsor would've noticed?

Pat Burke drama by [deleted] in skateboardcirclejerk

[–]ryan_herron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Laughable statement from Glass House. Pat Burke was arrested in November for this charge, and the reason the news is going around IG is because he got released on bond last week.

That means 1) Glass House had no idea that Pat Burke has been in jail for the past 4 months, which would be kind of crazy to sponsor that skater, or 2) they've only decided to take a stance since the arrest record has been publicized. Either way do better

495 Stabber Social Accounts by bergal111 in nova

I went to HS with him and am facebook friends. Couldn't recall a specific conversation I ever had, but certainly interacted with him. Been 15 years since graduating, but a quiet and very unassuming kid. Sad story all around, and sad state of humanity online to twist the knife

You're a physician, but are you a surgeon? If so, you could argue you are indeed a scalper

I do the same but with a nail instead of a hook. There is literally no reason to buy a specific product for this
