I’ve had two Powell-Peralta flight decks and now using a Decathlon carbon fiber deck. The kape decks seem to be better as they have all the benefits but also don’t chip! Carbon fiber is a game changer towards not easily snapping a deck, but when skating predominantly on rougher surfaces, then the chipping detracts from the carbon fiber benefits.

No, of course not. Paying $80 for a regular deck that could break in a week is silly. Skateboarding companies need to get with the times and produce more durable decks. Only then higher prices are fair.

On that note, check out these kape decks: https://kapeskateboards.com/. I’ve had the chance to try one from a fellow skater at the park yesterday and I’m amazed at how similar they feel. Great pop, strong as an ox, doesn’t chip. The guy who I used it from was pretty much pro skill-wise, and he was nothing but enthusiastic about them too. Unfortunately they only come in 8.25 inch width for now as that is the most sold size apparently; understandable from a startup point of view. I’ve just mailed them asking whether they will increase size availability someday.

Edit: already got an answer :O

Thx for reaching out!
We are about to drop the 8.5inch deck in a few weeks; but going wider isn’t scheduled yet.

So 8.5 might stay the widest deck for a while.
Go give it a try; the board is so much better than regular decks or anything else on the market; it might even make up the missing width. At least that’s what a lot of skaters say; worldwide!

All the best,

I’d give up computing altogether, or even commit suicide if living mainly means being subservient to these soulless parasites.

It’s been time to leave for half a decade.

Totally forgot the branding. Being placed inside a cage with a Cobra isn’t really a stunt but a “prank”. In any case, it seems I was wrong. The phrasing put me off as I don’t think these are his most famous experiences in Jackass, except for the golf cart shenanigans.

His most famous stunts include being branded on his buttocks, being placed inside a cage with a cobra and treating golf carts like monster trucks.

AI slop.

Pretty much agree with all of what the mayor said except for what boils down to “let’s not give them what they want and let’s fight hate with love and hugs instead.”

Imagine saying that to the Allies when the Axis came marching in.
Imagine saying that to a victim of violent bullying.
Imagine saying that to this murdered woman—Renee Nicole Good.

Sure, don’t fight fire with fire because hate clouds rational thinking. But at least fight fire with something analogous to the ±300 PSI water hoses that firefighters use. Sabotage these limp dick lunatics.

“On 10 October 1789, physician Joseph-Ignace Guillotin proposed to the National Assembly that capital punishment should always take the form of decapitation “by means of a simple mechanism”.”

I do like Björk but I’m not sure how much weight to give her opinions about international politics.

It doesn’t matter who says what, but that what is said is ethical and logically sound. But yeah, obviously the larger the fanbase the more eloquent/nuanced one should be.

Because we largely still have a me-first populace in no small part thanks to corporate “social” media. This enhances the belief of having too much to lose which prevents people from flooding the streets and taking matters into their own hands by force.

Microslop Windoze.

#AskFedi came to the rescue, someone on Mastodon found it: Smack The Pony - Walking.

• Anyone know what the trick is at 4:14? Some body-varial?

Jup, ollie body varial , or ollie sex change.

I cannot comprehend being able to skate in such conditions. My fingers and toes are already way too cold when I ride my bike to the skatepark in winter; I cannot feel relaxed on my board at all.

Neo: Yeah. Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I may have a better one. How about, I give you the finger
[He does]
Neo: and you give me my phone call.

“Maybe we naively funded them enough for this to not be true. Now they are self sustainable.”

It’s impossible for the rich to be self-sustainable—or for anyone living a modern lifestyle. All of their foodstuff, medicine, and other things that keep them alive are produced by the general populace. Also, most of their wealth is immaterial stock market value, so if the world goes to shit, so does their net worth. They need us more than we need them, but most are under the impression that the opposite is true. We’d be totally fine without most of their trinkets we’ve become accustomed to.

Not anymore, adjusted the URL.

Did this…. Actually happen?

Yes, at 5:54 in “BREAKING NEWS: Trump Takes Phone Calls From Children Calling NORAD’s Santa Claus Phone Line” - Forbes Breaking News (https://youtu.be/QRSrH3hfsos?t=354).

That’s it. From now on I dedicate my life to siphoning as much money from these unethical soulless bastards as possible to divert it to society-beneficial non-profits. More Linux, more skateparks, better education, more affordable housing, universal healthcare, et cetera. Never have I ever loathed one person so much as Mark Zuckerberg.
