I remember I bought a 15 dollar set of bones bearings and they lasted like 3 years.Bones definitely makes the best shit.

Got my deck and shit a couple days ago. Went with an enjoi (8.1") some indy 139's and spitfire big heads.

It's wet outside so I took it to the basement of our building and skated around for a bit, I went for an ollie and was kind of surprised that I landed it since it's been so long that I've even been on a board. My balance is off and the ollie was defiantly sketchy as fuck but I'm still glad I bought it. It'll be fun to start getting the flip tricks back.

No pics???
nahh i'm a work, never really occurred to me to take pics though.

i got this one with jerry hsu's face on it, perfect size and the only one in that size with a flat concave. i ordered a girl at first and when i got it the concave was so damn deep that it was just uncomfortable to stand on so i went ahead and sent it back.

damn a 8 is wide as shit.
I remember always measuring them to make sure I got like a 7.I think its easier to flip the board when its skinnier.

How big are your feet? 7" would be crazy small. Size is all preference but I only wear a 10 1/2 and the 8" feels good to me, not wide at all.
I'm pretty sure the usual is like.. 7.75" - 8.25"

That's just a guess though, I'm sure NoSwag would know better than I would.

i took a few of my new board, lol... got a lil carried away, lol..

also a few pix of my current grow to liven the thread up some... i've been thinking of getting the old school cabalerro graphics as a tat as it was my first real board and i've always loved the dragon on it.. pretty much the same dragon on this deck, but slightly different... this deck is pretty sweet as it glows under a black light... :)

I skate 8s too... Mainly cause I'm 6'3'' 250lbs and it's easier to handle with my sz 13 feet. LOL

Me and the bros get together and hit up the skate parks once a week, I got about 4 parks within 20 minutes of where I live.

Just replaced my deck, had a old Krown deck that started to chip, which is surprising because I usually snap them before they chip.
Just picked up my local shops brand. Both 8s
Spitfire wheels, independent trucks.
