Spitfire Lock-ins VS Spitfire Tablets
Просмотров 6 тыс.21 день назад
In this video I'm skating a wheel that in theory, SHOULD be a better version of the Spitfire Tablets... These are the Spitfire Lock-ins which have a straight edge 'Lock-in' cut on the inside and a 'Conical' cut on the outside, So it's basically half Tablet and half Conical BUT does this make it a better version than the standard Tablets? Spitfire Lock-ins Specs: 55mm = 35.9mm wide - 23.5mm ridi...

Does Skateboard Wheelbase REALLY Matter?
Nice video mate
Awesome video!
I skated my independent titanium trucks for 4 years, and they are still good.
how you there without a thousand kids there!.
MDMA and Crack Skateboards 'r Betta...
I put washers under my bushings to push the trucks out a little. 14.175WB 5'9"
Fuar dude I need to check this place out! Thanks for sharing 🤞🏻
Thank you for your testing these wheels. You made me want to get some of these.
What trucks are you using?
I’ve got the 10” Curb Killer Slappy trucks on 👌🏽
water bubbler? 🤣😂
What skatepark?
Holborn skatepark, just down passed Wollongong 👌🏽
Oiiiii that looks so fun.
It’s so good!
I believe the stack of farthest out axel to closest in is: 1. Venture 2. Thunder 3. Indy 4. Ace This is why you'll see people with 14" inch wheel base boards go for venture sometimes, to add more stability to a shorter board. And Ace trucks on 14.5-15" wheel base boards for a sharper turn.
That sounds about right!
Makes sense considering Aces and Indy’s are usually considered the turny trucks and Thunder and Venture are usually more stable
I'm jealous at how many skateparks in your area are being built with slappy curbs man. I wish they did that here in my area.
Yeah we just keep getting more spoilt!
My local skatepark is about 5% this size. If this were my local, I would never have to travel to skate again. 😂😢
Yeah dude, this place has it all!
i just wanna know how you got this skatepark basically empty, every time i go past its packed with kids, even during school hours
Haha yeah man, this was around 10am on a week day so we must have just got lucky 👌🏼
This shoe is unavailable
Sick park and vid Leon !
Thanks Nash, you'll love this park!
Sydneys central coast FO....get it right ...I know it was known as Blacktown by the sea but FFs,,,
PS leon its certainly not personal ...keep up the good work.
10 million.?? Ya tripping bra
The SB Ishods are great, very comfy and durable. The toe still hasn’t torn on my switch shoe, as I do switch and nollie a lot more than regular or fakie.
Grew up at the old skate park but haven’t seen the new one yet inspired me to go check it out tomorrow been a couple years since being on the board but ima give it a crack 💯💯
Sick man, get back out there for sure! It will probably be a little hectic on a weekend though lol
First thing I thought when I saw that curved rail on the bank was feeble! Good on ya!
Thanks dude! I'll try and get some more tricks on it next time I'm up there 🙏🏼
I will pay top dollar for quality 👍
One minute in and I'm sold! The progression level here looks amazing. I'll have to check it out one weekday to avoid all the scooter kids 😂
Yeah dude, the park is amazing! But yes I would definitely recommend hitting it on a weekday lol
Great park check-out, thanks Leon!
Thanks man, thanks for watching 🙏🏽
That park looks sick but no to the ArtList music dog... 🤣😳
I used Epidemic Sound, so slightly better 😂
Need this in Bega
GAINSBOROUGH SKATEPARK (KIAMA DOWNS, PLEASE)
I've never heard of that park but I'll have to suss it 🤔
3.5mill on the park. as a local...the old park sucked ass. the concrete died and youd ruin ya grip with Duck shit. it was bogus. this ones awesome but too fucking busy.
Oh sick, I wasn't sure how much the park actually cost but that seems about right 👌🏼 Yeah man, this new version is a massive upgrade for sure! It should die down after a few months, hopefully lol
Yep the old park was dead. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. This new setup is amazing! Wish we had something like this when I was young. The $10m price tag was for the whole precinct (skate, basketball, bmx track, oval and tennis upgrades etc). Great videos keep up the good work dude!
@@LeonPaxton the coast just keeps getting busier and busier. Night sessions seem to be the go if you wanna get a proper ride. Lights off by 9 though I think.
its really not very good. dont come here....
Hahaha! I wouldn't worry about Leon attracting out of towners. We'll drive for hours, have a skate, and then never find the time to come back :)
Umina has a world class point break and now a world class skate park, I give it 2 days and the whole town will be booked out and full of camper vans l, sorry my bro your time has come.
@@bicyclingbum1551 I’m gonna die?
On my way!
Dude you guys have the sickest skateparks! Always a little jealous when I see you post a park video lol
Yeah dude, Sydney is going off right now! There's another sick new one I'll be hitting next week too lol
Your back 50s on ledges look so effortless, can you do a tutorial for this please?
I actually learnt back 50's before front 50's when I was younger so that's probably why lol I can definitely do a video on them though because a lot of people have trouble with them 👌🏼
Which skatepark should I hit next?
Gipp St Recreational Park
Yep Gipps street park
KIAMA DOWNS PLEASE
@@mattdestroyed That's definitely the next new one I'll be hitting, it looks so good!
Dulwich Hill. the more modern part is an early 2000s build i think and a bit funky, has an original snake run too.
That looks so fun! That feeble on the curve was soo sick. That looks terrifying to skate. I really love when parks make "beginner" sections. They're perfect for warming up and honestly most days it's more fun to just kind dink around on little stuff. I wish more parks would include features like that. Thanks for another great video
Yeah that rail was actually so hard to figure out the right angle lol Oh man it’s so good! So fun to skate that small stuff and learn on too before progressing to the bigger stuff 👌🏽 No problem man, thanks for watching 🙏🏽
That Bowl😍
I wish I could skate it 😅
Leon Paxton, great content you deserve more subscribers
Thanks so much, appreciate that a lot!
100% agree. I recommended your recent slappy tutorial to someone on a Kevin Nice Try vid the other day. Hot take, but I honestly prefer watching you session parks over street parts. Love your channel Leon 🤘
They are 60 here still pretty high.
Leon bro. Ur the goat. Been watching for a minute, you’ve covered egg shapes, wheelbase, now slappies. Awesome bro. Just awesome. This is perfect for me im watching this with my morning cup of tea, boutta head out and try and see if i can manage a back 50. Perfect timing bro.
Haha thank you so much man, glad you're enjoying my videos! Sick, let me know how you go out there man!
@@LeonPaxton these Texas curbs are hard. They are quite rounded. I just can’t get ontop of the curb. I get a grind sound sometimes but it’s just my toes digging in and heels up slightly. Feels like I’m slashing not getting onto of it. Hard to explain. Trying to not use the tail and put my feet in the pockets or on bolts. I just don’t end up grinding how I like. But will keep trying.
Australia's outdoor = Chris Bamman Australia's sk8parks = Leon Paxton Enjoyed every minute off it..😄👍
Haha thanks man!
Also, some 8 year old sweat shop worker won’t be able to feed his brothers and sisters now based on this review
Etnies Matt Bergers. Been skating in these lately and they’re a very good shoe. Copped them for $90 delivered
Damn that's a good price!
Man, what a perfect little park.
It's actually so fun!
For real, those Heroin wide boys are all I skate now. Theres just something about them that are sooo fun!
Dude, they are the best! I'm trying to get my hands on one of the 10.4" Anatomy Wide Boy's too but they are sold out everywhere 😫
I just got the 54mmx39mm dragon nano rats 93 duro. Went for a little push with the little fella and wow, what a ride compared to my grimple stix lock in fulls 54mm 99 duro f4’s. Not sure what the difference is in the dragons and dragon nano rats might be, but what a rideeeeeeeee. Spitfires are on a 8.125” darkstar Lutzka pro model with 1/4” risers on thunder titanium’s, bones Swiss bearings. The dragon nano rats are on an Andy anderson heron 2 deck I believe with the mirror flipped image on the bottom, with the 8.7” in the middle paired with ace hallow hardware, ace af1 DEEDZ hollows 55’s with the bones Swiss and the dragon nano rats
Damn I really want to try those, just waiting for them to land in AUS! Sounds like you have some sick set ups man!
They are making fingerboards really big
All the little skooter kids 😭😭
School holidays are always gnarly at skateparks lol
Wth i spend like 40 Euros max on my shoes. Just wait for last year Editions to be Sold off
