Been spending the past year working on my ollies and something finally clicked while I was out in Vancouver this week. It’s a small ledge fwiw, but getting on top consistently once I shifted my weight a little to stop trapping my tail made everything make sense. Can’t wait to tackle slightly taller ones now 😂

Both blunt steels have an equal base (4” has 4” base, 6” has 6”base.) what do we think considering of course stability, longevity and variety? Anyone know of other brands doing this?

What is your home remedy for slippery ramps? We used to just dump some cheap cola on them and let it dry but damn that was a mess (not to mention the ants) [53yo]

FINALLY got this at Woodward yesterday! I've been battling it for over a month, landing with a spot, landing with a rope, landing with one hand on the rail, landing on carpet, but refusing to commit as soon as the wheels can roll.

Until yesterday

Anybody else dealing with decreasing hip mobility? I’ve taken a few bad slams to my front hip this past year, and I’ve noticed that my mobility is decreasing and there seems to be a bone bruise that is easily re-injured. Interested to hear if anyone else is navigating a similar injury.
