Hey guys. I got this board off of marketplace for $100 (with trucks, free ride wheels, race wheels, and slide gloves)
I decided to repaint the deck and this is some photos from each stage. I’m bleak the original graphics were destroyed but I enjoyed the painting process.
Anyways thanks for stopping in!
I’m riding a fairly old board. The trucks, wheels, bearings and griptape needed TLC. Before I took it out I spent 3 days cleaning everything. It was tedious work but I ended up enjoying seeing her come back to life. Keen to learn more about this sport and myself!
Hey guys ! I want to share some clips with you. These are some of the basic slides I played around with today. My balance was still off and I struggled to keep my feet where it needed to be. I’m struggling the most with colemans and toeslides..
Hey guys so I decided to take my longboard out today. I haven’t stepped on a board in about 14 years.. I felt my balance was off for most of it and some of the positions felt awkward. I’m definitely not as comfortable on the board as I was when I was 12 but it was still loads of fun. Keen to pick this hobby up again!
Hey guys I used to skate back in 2012-2014. I’m from South Africa. I sold all my gear through my teenage years and I recently got this setup for about $100 on Facebook marketplace.
The deck graphics were absolutely destroyed so I took it upon myself to refurbish it. I’ve got standard gullwing charger 50 trucks 10’. Sector 9 skiddles wheels.
Coming back after more than a decade a lot has changed. Is this setup still valid or should I look into getting a new setup. I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about the loaded boards and prism boards. Also want to grab some caliber 3s not sure about the degree though.
