abrasivesaint Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) Slave - Warpig 9.6 from Jamie Thomas’ “Garage Days” Collection. Indy/Thrasher 169s Bones medium bushings OJ Super Juices 60mm 78a Bronson RAW bearings Shorty’s hardware Jessup Grip (this i actually forget) Indy 1/8 shock pads psycho 1/8 risers enjoi tummystix rails I bought the wheels and bearings before anything else funny enough, then i saw that board and it “matched” perfectly and i love that graphic so i had roll with it. Plus, i get to shred a deck from Thomas’ personal collection. Fun shape, fun board. When i ordered it Thomas emailed me fearing he had messed up and he had already sold that deck then a couple days later hit me with the “your deck was found and shipped!!” email and i was beyond stoked.

cruzxctrl Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 First trick board since spraining my ankle. I left my usual 8.38/8.5 rides to slim it down to a nice 8 x 32 with a lot of concave. Haven’t skated an Alien Workshop in a LONG time but it feels really solid. Not a bunch of slide marks because I’m getting my flatground back and getting my ankle comfortable flicking switch again. I’ve noticed the - .38/.5 inch difference gives me a lot more control w/ quicker pop and faster flips so may stick in this 8” range. The rest of the set up is pretty much like my cruiser above minus the obvious like riser pads and soft wheels. I’m riding Bones STFs 54mm V3’s but they’re shaved down to about 50mm or so. Independent 149’s w Bones Hard bushings, Bones Swiss No Caps and 6 mix and match hardware bc I’m lazy. Mob Grip always on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzxctrl Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Yo @abrasivesaint that ride looks MEAN AS FUCK! So beautiful. Trucks, matching rails, I bet you get some good carves out of that. Must be so fun to snake a hill on something like that. I guess you inspired me with the orange/Halloween scheme lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrasivesaint Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I fucking love that board. The scheme was initially an accident but then i ran with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrasivesaint Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Some photos of a old DIY spot we had. This was just about the time it died. Cops started rolling on us frequently. Kids started fucking things up, so on. Once upon a time this was a great spot. All those ledges had angle iron, the ramps were pristine, the spot was left alone.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a little funding to clean it up and convert it into an actual skatepark. Posted this in another thread, but here's what are local skatepark looks like, or at least the one closest to me since we have a couple. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted this in another thread, but here's what are local skatepark looks like, or at least the one closest to me since we have a couple. That looks fun. The DIY eventually got bought up and there’s an office building there now. At one point though kids from all over had come to it and heard about it. Kids from Florida showed up one day and said they heard about it in Florida. It was wild. Some kid stole that quarter pipe and spray painted it black to try to hide our tags on the sides but they bled right through the paint and we saw it at a local park. Someone tried to stop my buddy and I from taking it back and we barked them off. They called the kid who stole it and he come down like a hard ass (screeching wheels and brake slams and all,) but when he realized who’s ramp it was he backed down quick. I also went at him pretty hard as soon as he stepped out of his car. We also steered clear of the DIY for a bit because local cops found a field of weed behind the spot. About 70 plants worth.. Needless to say all the run ins we had in the past and the new discovery in the back we wanted to lay low. In that time frame is when it all started going to shit because we couldn’t maintain it. Edit: theres a bunch of photos missing as well. We had orange barriers, fridges with kickers, CCS rail, all sorts of shit.

Ray40 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I have been able to skate across my street and work on my ollie, frontside pivots, power slides, and trying to get a frontside 180 and kick flip, as far as parks, I haven't been able to go to any. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrasivesaint Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Been going on late night slappy runs, (as seen above.) Streets are dead and it’s quiet. Plus if anyone tries to bitch about social distancing they can suck my balls because i was distant until they showed up to complain. Working on bs feeble slaps at the moment. Kingpin keeps catching i think and throwing me sideways. Edited April 14, 2020 by abrasivesaint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell yea dude. And wait a minute... HOW ARE YOU LIKING THOSE TENSORS? I haven't skated tensors in years and I been thinking about putting an early 2000 board setup together (48mm/50mm wheels and 7.75/8" board) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to try something new, Tensor has definitely come a long way since the plastic piece in the base plate days. I still love my Indy’s though.
