>>9157491
this is just stupid.

>>9157501
are judging a skate by its design not its good or bad? are you that faggot?

>>9157487
not /fa/ at all.

>>9157508
no i'm new to skating and i need a board to lean on, this one looks like its in good condition and has reputable parts?
its close to where i live too, so i want to know iif its a good deal

is this /fa/?

>>9157563
She's such a poser

>>9157568
i know, you'd think it was her job or something

yall are gay

I'm new to /fa/... This is the first thread I can kind of contribute to.
After seeing these hair threads, and tat threads.
>Do you guys have jobs?

>>9157737
also, what does /fa/ think of these?

>>9157737
these?

>>9157759
shit forgot pic

/fa/ as all get out

>>9157769
atrocious

>>9157476
my board got ran over by a car today and it was totally fine

lol

i skate cps

>>9157775
I'm trying to find them with a gum sole, that white sole does carry a lot of fuckery with it.

>>9157778
I used to skate, now I long board occasionally.
<muhboard, green stripes not red though

>>9157794
FUCK!!! i keep forgetting pictures

>>9157737
>adidas

>>9157752
terrible for anyone
>>9157769
not very /fa/
>>9157737
these are okay
>>9157798
ayy

>>9157752
They're kind of lame but passible in a 90s sportswear fit

>>9157801
Not fresh? Should I rethink my life choices?
">adidas"-- is implying?

>>9157769
Horrible

idk, I'm about to grab these.

>>9157817
The three stripe design ruins every single shoe they make. It's just horrible looking on a shoe.

>>9157824
reminder that this is an opinion

>>9157476
fuck skateboarding

this is some juvenile shit that doesnt belong here

fuckk off back to your mom's minivan and dont forget to bring your helmet

>>9157838
Lol can you even kick flip bro??

Bro can you even kick flip??

Haha fucking poser

>>9157838
Lol, you wear a helmet...

>>9157838
lol
the average age on /fa/ is prob under 18
go home dad
(for moderation purposes i would like to say i am over the age of 18)

>>9157831
Reminder that you have horrible taste and the three stripe design is atrocious. The curves are ruined by three straight lines. What makes shoes good looking is the contoured lines that flow organically. Nikes logo looks like the motion of a foot striking the ground and moving backwards. That's a good design. Asics looks ok but gets too busy easily. Adidas is just pants on head retarded. The only reason for it was strengthening straps on their old shoes, can we move on already? Get a better logo designer, that budweiser king of beers leaf is also sickening.

>>9157852
this is your opinion

>>9157859
And it's better than yours, which you are too dim to articulate.

getting my first longboard soon

suggestions?

>>9157867
Still >>9157859

>>9157871
ya, take your question to a more appropriate board

>>9157867
the fact you you think your option is better than mine, which you have only inferred because i haven't spoken about it is also, just your opinion

>>9157871
As long as you have good bearings and wheels, everything else is pretty subjective.

>>9157871
get a board that isn't a stupid shape so it won't break in half

>>9157852
>>9157867
SEE HOW THE STAR IS POINTING IN ALL DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, THIS MAKES IT UGLY.

>>9157487
sage is the worst skater out of all the supreme kids

>>9157737
having a job is NOT /fa/

>>9157876
Great argument there.

It's hard to be smarter than everyone else sometimes. People just roll over and give up.

>>9157912
now this is just bait
two fishermen with their lines tangled

The shoes ive been skating the last 2 months

>>9157919
No, I sincerely despise adidas shoes. Shame they're ho ugly since they're comfy and pretty well made. I still have some as yard work shoes from back in hs before I cared what I looked like.

>>9157933
wow some real brokeboi shit there

kill urself

>>9157933
My setup (shit trucks i want indy lows)

And right now for pants im liking emerica raws they are fading decently and are really comfy for akating

>>9157933
You need a fatter shoe man. Try some SBs you'll get used to the "less" feel.
>>9157941
You run through a shit ton of shoes when you skate man...

>>9157941
Dog their my skate shoes i skate in them lol
Im not buying raf to skate

>>9157941
wtf you talkign bout?
his shoes are scuffed so he should kill himself?
you fuckedhead this is a skate thread

>>9157952
I was thinking accents for my next pair but yeah im gonna go bigger fr sure

>>9157952

;_;

>>9158053

>>9157476
what do i wear with this sweater?

>>9157737
i like the busenitz vulcs better imo

>>9157943
how do i look like i am palace 90s street sk8r core w/o actually wearing palace(too expensive for me)
????

>>9157501
seems like a legitimate buy
cop
remember that it will TAKE TIME to learn tricks A LOT OF TIME
dont worry once u are comfortable cruising skating will be a lot more fun!

Are Nike Janoski any good?

>>9159187
2010-2011 they were great, these days they use cheaper materials and the laces tear very quickly. theyre still what I skate but they dont hold up very well any more.

>>9157941
ignorant as fuck

if you actually skate frequently you aren't going to waste money making sure your

>>9157852
this will probably be the most autistic shit i read all december

just a reminder that the only place it's acceptable to longboard is down a very steep hill and off a cliff

>>9157984
Cutest would be Sean Pablo. Most attractive would obviously be Dylan Rieder. Honorable mention for Tyshawn (Those looks tho)

>>9157476
skaters are poseurs end of discussion

>>9159489
Sean pablo looks most like a girl but he isn't kawaii lel
Tyshawn, sage, Dylan, Eli reed, and bed kadows are all cuties

>>9157487
What kind of pants is he wearing? Levi's 511? Needs some new jeans that I can skate in

>>9157817
The Adidas aren't bad IMO
Get them if u want them

>>9159993
those aren't tapered/fitted enough to be 511s, but I have 2 pairs of 511s and skate in them all the time. They're great

>>9157943
Just get aces 44

I love sean

Serious question: How old is everyone in this thread?

I'm 20, about to turn 21 and I feel too old for skating already? Maybe it's the people I hang around with...

Can bmx or street mtb be fa? I was riding it like 7 years ago and kind of want to do some bunnyhops and shit again.

>>9163722
22 uni student here. Just ride a longboard, not really into doing tricks like back in middle school.

These shoes.

These fucking shoes.

I've already bought 3 pairs this year and my current ones are already breaking. I love them aesthetically, but they break so fucking easily and I'm getting tired of paying almost 70€ each time for a new pair. I refuse to believe anyone can wear these daily yet alone skateboard in them and have them survive for more than a year.

I did some skateboarding for the first time in ages for about an hour and now my left shoe has a hole and white patch on it.

What do I do? Should I try to return them to Vans and make them send me a new pair? I didn't buy them online, but maybe the receipt should be enough?

>>9161958
I know that feel bro

forever in my basement

>>9164054
oh yeah man. I copped along with my first skateboard in a decade and I got mad holes in them.

I started using a beater pair of AF1, better but gonna tear through the authentics before going to AF1s

>>9164054
how do they "break" when you aren't skating them?


i don't skate eras unless they're suede. holds up much better

How do I get into skateboarding?
Do I just do shit in my back garden until I'm confident enough to go outside with it?

>>9164100
just get comfortable rolling around and pushing. use it as a mode of transportation before trying to do tricks with it.

>>9157958

>fuckhead

You should probably make that the last time you say that for the rest of your life.

>>9164096
Just walking around and the sides already start to split. This summer the ones I wore completely came loose of the sole and the insole / inside literally crumbled into bits and ended full of holes, and all I did this summer was work (so no skateboarding and barely any walking) and sleep. All this is like 3 or 4 months of use.

Not to mentino if they get a tiny bit wet from light rain. I live somewhere where it rarely rains, and even then the slight rain we have really fucks them.

I'm so mad because years ago these shoes lasted longer and were cheaper and now I've bought so many pairs this year I feel stupid.

>>9158408
Hoodies a shit

>>9163722
19 here. Who do you skate with?

>tfw wasted my youth and didnt skate
why do i even live?

>>9164443
>started skating when I was 17
>5 years later still suck ass

>>9164452
i'm 20, but i don't even have friends who would skate with me. maybe just go out high at night one day and start skating..

>>9164460
I have basically skated that 5 years alone mostly because I live bumfuck nowhere and no one skates here.
Still, I don't give a damn, it's fun.

What's the ideal skate shoe? One that looks nice, and also functions nice. I want something that will last and not fall apart, preferably black or white for versatility.

>>9164494
I like the vans AVE pro. Make sure to get the pros cause that's the suede ones
Around 60 bucks and it lasted me about 2.5-3 months

Sk8 his are nice but the old school vans footbed isn't that good at all and once the panel that connects the toe area and the rest of the shoe is ripped it will become really annoying when skating

>>9164494
My personal favorites ever are probably Vans Stage 4 lows and Emerica G-Codes, both lasted nicely and were really good to skate, might have lacked cushioning and support but I'm all about touch to the board

>>9163670
Do a heelflip or any other trick to troll lel

>>9161951
Who is this

>>9164516
Oh and the Stage 4s were good because they had the wafflecup thingy Vans does so they were lot more durable than regular Vans pair.
Crockett's pro model features it also I think

What isn't fa about it

How do u make dickies look this good

Any of u had bronze clothes?
I ordered a sweater more than a week ago and still haven't gotten it. According to his instagram he got evicted from his apartment and he has only one box of bronze shit lol

>>9165332
It simply isn't,it became mainstream and plebby and now every fucking kid wears authentics,flanner shirt(or DGK/obey/vans sweatshirt) ,wears huf plantlife socks and posts weed posts on his facebook.

Things move on,skating is for betas.

>>9165365
So that's why people wear stuff that's not mainstream
Plus, people that wear dgk obey and Huf weed socks usually don't skate cause they can get it at zumiez. I never see skaters wear flannels either. Also, about wearing vans. You can't really stop people from wearing them and coming to the mainstream. They're shoes and people need them.
Nowadays all the skaters I know don't wear those clothes at all

>>9164527

Jay Alvarrez is the kid on the left

>>9164129
do this and have a good attitude about it. you'll be shit and lose your balance or fall off all the time, but just laugh it off and know at least you are trying.

>>9161950
This is such a great photo

>>9165584
no but, you like cool movies :)

>>9157823
cop
had the black pair and they were p good

i hate welcome skateboards and anyone that rides them

literally all I see at parks now are little short pre teens with dickies baggy as hell since I think they only look good on taller slimmer people then pair that up with a pair of converse and shirt tucked in. Then they sport the welcome fun shaped board and get in my way trying to do no complies off the ledges and box.

>>9159322
>this
the suede held up p well but now...
now they are shit
also no support but good feel

>>9166029
>H&M
>Mall Grab

how to look good/have fun
>just get extremely good at pushing. skate EVERYWHERE and eventually... any skater can spot a dork in a minute just by the push so just focus on pushing
>power slide. looks dope helps with slowing down on hills. just get bones stf and find a hill
>ollie. get good enough just to be able to ollie up curbs and life is so much easier.get them smooth and you will look good ollieing cracks and shit
>most of all have fun. dont skate purely b/c dylan does it. you will never look as good as him so just have fun and you will progress way faster.

Puleo has the best style and you know it. The white shirt, the charcoal pants he hasn't taken off since static II, and the half cabs. he's a Normcore icon.

I've got so much love for Emerica

and O.G companies like Toy Machine and Zero

Emerica Skelters and Krew K Skinny jeans

Emerica Wino shoes.. for chillin GCode's for skating...

Ed Templeton is my hero

>>9166029
I just wanna grab a board and smack the back of their heads

>>9163722

I'm 21 and just started skating after 10 years. Just take it one step at a time man, do what you feel there is no point asking what you SHOULD do because that ultimately YOU are going to make a choice. Do what you want bro, just have fun. Pic is a screenshot of me recording videos on my phone, having a blast.

>>9167002
I used to get a cheap pair of the Emerica Wino's back in like middle school. Those things were the tits to skate in

>>9163670
I yelled this at some fuccboi when I was on the bus in Shanghai like a week ago, was that faggot I yelled at you?

>>9163722
19 year old sponsored longboarder who mainly street skates.

this fit, trick and pic are so tight.

I skate an 8" def deck and wear black vans authentic. highs or anything thick feels wrong to me.
tfw you start skating again after 4 years and have to gb2 flatground

>>9166070
jerry seems so chill

>>9167354
Great pic, Sean is the man.

I remember riding them 8's. 8.25 is the ultimate feel though, greatest board i've ridden is an 8.38 though. So much control.

>tfw every kid hates skating Vans Authentic because "muh no padding, those shoes are thin af hehe look at my Janoski's broooooo"

Vans Authentics are one of the GOAT skate shoes imo.

lol dude who cares
it's juts fun as fuck and its good for transportation to.
not just gonna stop doing an activity because its gained popularity, and not me or anyone i know skate for the look of it
are you some sort of faggot or something

>>9167364
Yeah i'm considering going wider. I have annoying size 12 lanklet clown feet.
I don't really care what people wanna wear but it's stupid to be self righteous about something that's so down to preference. kids gonna kid.
the only downside to vans is that you wear through them after literally about half an hour's use.
pic related. shoe goo isn't pretty.
>>9167367
muh kiwi nigga

>>9161958
tfw too social anxiety to exist in public
i've met some people and i'm getting better tho

>>9167398
Yeah go wider, trust, it'll be much better. More control, little bit harder flick but it's no biggie actually.

yeah they waste p quickly but that sole is god-tier.

>>9163722

23 and ocasionally cruise with a penny to get with the feels

>>9166713
i know what u mean, man
i actually have a welcome board right now and i feel insecure when i got to the park lol
but i reallylike the helm of awe(sum) welcome shape its my 3rd one. i dont do that ugly colorful shit grip thing tho that looks like vomit lol

>>9167123
>having a blast
the epitome of skating

>>9167369
o shit
i wonder if pontus wanted his "..." days to look like that skit

>>9163722
21 and I'm the only actual skater in my small town I moved to. I feel silly most of the time unless I'm killing it, but just don't give a shoot what people think.
My dream is to find some cool guys I can just skate, jam and smoke with without judgements again. Most skaters I meet are open or closet bigots so it's annoying... or 13 years old lol...
Oh and I only street and park skate but I've been wanting to get a big ass board and some slider gloves to take on the gnar

>>9166713
dude the welcome/fuckingawesome kids that think theyre hot shit cuz they dress different. i know they really just like all the new skaters with the new styles but i hate how the kids at parks literally poach sean pablo, sage, mango, ... 's style. they want to looks different yet they look like all of the new popular skaters

>>9167508

you guys have to accept that being "effay" while skating is virtually impossible unless you have fucking raf simons rick owens on stock

he actually skates though

just kind of ignorant ahole

>>9170453
he's known for being a celebrity stylist and fashion icon though

Current board, cheap ventures, NMBs, jessups, no name bolts and wheels.

Don't really do any technical tricks but I skate in a pair of SB dunks.

Wanna give a shout out to veganskateblog while I'm here and joke about how Rowley used to be a vegan and all his shoes were Vegan but now he sold out. Fuck that guy.
>>9167398
Yeah I'm kinda pissed at my Vans, sent them back. I wasn't even skating them and they wore through the soles. Major cut backs in quality.

Also what's up with all boards being 8 inches wide these days? I went into a store recently and literally 8 was the smallest size board they had. I didn't want to be that guy and say something but fuck. I like riding a thinner board.

What are some good skate clothing brands? I know huf is really popular right now, but I'm looking for something more like Mishka (I know it's not a skate brand). Anyone have ideas?

>>9170786
assuming mishka is vaporwave shit cuz yung lean, look at bronze hardware
also, mishka sponsors spencer nuzzi so it is affiliated with skating

>>9170804
I really like bronze stuff. thanks dude.

If anyone has cool skate bigcartels or whatever share please

I have no idea where else to post this on 4chan.
Yesterday and the day before there were some pretty out of the ordinary rainy days here in SoCal and I saw at least 2 people throughout the day riding their boards in the rain.
Why? Why would anyone do that?

seriously the perfect shoe for actual function and style

i still wear a pair of lows that are almost 4 years old

hopefully they will be though
good luck on ur fa journey
dont try to spend too much!! =D

Why are /fa/ggots so chill when the thread is about skating.
You guys are douchebags outside of here

>>9170993
that profile though

>>9171013
the profile is honestly great, the toebox just reminds me of shitty airwalk shoes you see at walmart

>>9171013
damn this is really sick
a lot like the nike blazer. too bad the blazer is soo expensive for a skate shoe - like a lot of the other nike sbs

>>9165584

Dope movie tho

>>9171005
were not always the jerks posting on the other threads
plus, there are some jerks in this thread =/ but i guess skating to us is really special that we dont want to ruin it by being dikheds

>>9171005
People that probably lurk normally are posting. Someone has been pushing skate threads for months and this looks like one of the few successful ones tbh

>>9171028
It's much much slimmer in person

Seriously the best shoe bang for buck, have a 4 year old pair I wear to work that still have grip on the bottom, canvas is still holding up

Just a great fucking shoe , I have a pair that are still new just sitting in my car, wonder if they're worth anything

>>9167508
Go for it man! I'm 22 and me and a friend got the great idea to start skating this spring and had a blast being totally shit at it the whole summer. This is what I skate btw.

>>9170865
>>9170815
Update: I dried/shrunk my bronze crew neck and now the sleeves are a lot better I'm 5'7 lel

Almost 10 years ago, but I remember it so well.

shut the fuck up. he is awesome. fucking awesome.

>>9157513

actually very FA if you know what I mean.

>>9157943

why the fuck would you get indy lows

>>9158064

fucking horrendous look

>>9165365

mmm kind of true skating as a whole since I started (1994) is less fa, but there are still pockets that are. It definitely has lost it's edge, it had to, pro skaters wanted to make more money. The industry wanted it, "cool" always sells. That said it is still the most /fa/ out of all activities it's related to.

Thoughts on these?

dumbodays.

>>9173188

no, but don't think you are gonna be pro. I had already been skating for 10 years by the time I was 20.

>>9157823
if you have to buy em get a pair in black. brown makes it look like you're trying to pass them off as leather or something

these aren't skateboarding shoes bruh (at least not for tricks if you're just cruising they're tight).

>Like the concept and design of penny boards as portable cruisers.
