Switched from flat (Fluid V) to anti rocker (FTL 3) What a difference! Feeling so much more stable and confident in learning grinds.

New here. I’m really interested in skating a flat set up but really struggling to lock in. I’m currently on Kizer Fluid Vs. Any advice?

My motivation for flat is born out a love for vert and a desire to lean into wizard style flow.

Looking for my first urban skates for regular cruising and city commuting.

Price matters but not the most important. Currently looking at Zoom Pros and Next.

Trying out grinds for the first time. Working on frontside. Any tips?

First lesson: Wax is my friend

Took my first big fall today since coming back. Grab pads old timers. That could have been bad.

Had to stand up tell my kids, “all part of the learning process”. Then I skated to a bench and sat down for a minute. 😅

NSD!

Snagged me some USD Sway Allstar 2000s. I wear a US size 9 shoe and the 8-9 size boot fits PERFECTLY. Snug and wearing in with zero pressure points. Colors and style are clean in person.

Just got back from the skate park. Feeling old, excited, and really good after my first session back after 20 years.

Thanks for all the input!

Anyone skate USD Aeon 80s?

It seems like a great option for people who want to dabble in both urban and aggressive. Is it oversold? Is the wheel bite insane??

Shout out to Ithaca, NY! The Lynx at Dotson Park is a great course. Check it out if you’re in the area.

Was in town for the weekend and discovered this great course. Challenging par 4s in the woods. Couldn’t ask for more.
