Shout out to the fiance 🙏💯, and I will support Shorty's because of this. It was not my era of skating, but they just earned my support. I am not sure how I am just finding your channel. I'm grateful that it popped up in the feed. You have been doing this for 15 years. That is solid. I grew up in San Diego, North County, as a kid in the 80s-90s. I stopped skating in 89 and didn't start again until December 17. Stay Rad, Sir "Fan in the afterlife" quote of the day.
Thank you 🙏🏻 👊🏻 Im glad I was able to make you a fan of Shorty’s too, I know that time period was a while back but it was such an amazing time having a skate team and company that was so involved in skating to look up to and get hyped from. San Diego is such a cool place I have always wanted to live there, I bet there was a lot of cool stuff over there growing up in the 80s/90s too. I have had the channel for a long time posting here and there but I started the skate vlogs more recently about 2 years ago posting more regularly. Thank you for checking out my channel and video 🙌🏻
@costaricaBL oh man I can't say a lot. 7 years at still under 175 videos. No good skating there just an old man sharing his experiences and love for skateboarding. I am about to retire from 29.8 years of Paratrooping. So more time to skate🙏.
@ Ive had my channel for probably over 15 years but just posted every once in a while for a long time. Now for the last 2 years I have been trying to get a video out at least once a week. Its hard to get videos out regularly but I get inspiration from everyone. As long as your having fun skating and showing that in your vids its entertaining to me 👊🏻 That is really cool about the paratrooper job, sounds like you have had a great career!
@@NineTo5Golf I still remember when that video came out, they had giant banners at the local indoor skateparks advertising it. Muska was like the team captain, all those clips with him and his ghetto blaster boom box were so cool.
Thank you for the Sub! I appreciate the support 🙏🏻 I was definitely bummed about my old board but I got the new setup now so Im not even worried about finding it anymore and I hope who ever picked it up can have fun on it.
Something happened like that months ago , a guy drove off and forgot his board, I got his board and put it in my cars roof while I was still skating for hours, he never came back so I took it going to see him again... I carried that board for months in the trunk and finally I saw that guy again lol and gave him back his board
I like Shorty's everything I buy from them is top notch and the prices aren't wicked, The customer service is so good and I always get sticker bomb on my orders, and a lot of their stuff is USA made
@@beesteezy3626 I did the same, Jessup seems like the closest option. Never heard of the other 2 brands, maybe I will try them out if I cant find Black Magic anywhere.
@@K_spawn Haha I didn’t even realize, they feel good though. I’m not too picky with wheel durometer, as long as its around 98-101 I cant tell much difference.
Yeah technically not stollen but it still sucked, I was so bummed when I came back and it was gone. If I ever see it again Im not gonna say anything, Shorty’s hooked it up so I want to pay it forward.
@@costaricaBL i don't see much benefit to hollows unless over 8.5", i like the weight of standards. it does help to pop higher and skate longer i suppose, but i still think i'd choose standards up to 8.5". yeah IKP is nice
@ Im always on this never ending journey to find the perfect set up. As I get older Im losing tricks so Im always looking for that thong missing 😝🤣 so I had to try the mid hollows out. I dont notice any difference in weight though like you said. Sometimes it even feels better to have a little more weight.
W Shortys. So sick!
🙌🏻🙌🏻 good people

Thats sick! Much 🛹🌎❤️ especially to shortys! The OG crew was the best. Keep rolling homie!
Thank you🙏🏻 for checking out the vid, still to this day I feel like that was the best skate crew of all time.
Fulfill the Dream was the first skate video I ever watched, what a classic! Muska was my favorite skater forever, good on Shorty's for hooking it up!
@@NineTo5Golf I still remember when that video came out, they had giant banners at the local indoor skateparks advertising it. Muska was like the team captain, all those clips with him and his ghetto blaster boom box were so cool.
Crazy hook up! Niice! Mad love to Shorty’s, skateboarders stick together. 🛹
@@mattthemadbotanist So grateful! Thanks for checking out my vid 👊🏻
Just found your channel that hella sucks that someone took your board but I freshie looks nice! Just subscribed keep up the great work man! 🙏🏽

Thats really cool of you to hold on to it until you saw them again 🔥
Sick package! Super dope of Shortys to hook you up!
They are so cool, I never expected anything like that but they are good people over there for sure!
Looks rad!
They are so generous 🔥
I’ve only used their bearings, grip and hardware. Good stuff.
The boards are really good too and Im liking the ghetto child wheels a lot so far.
I NEED that black magic hoodie 🙏🏻
I got it pretty recently, I think they still sell it on the Shorty’s website.
I like Shorty's everything I buy from them is top notch and the prices aren't wicked, The customer service is so good and I always get sticker bomb on my orders, and a lot of their stuff is USA made
I feel the same way, I love the extra stickers and stuff they throw in with the orders 🙌🏻
Blackmagic grip was my favorite grip...once I couldn't find them anymore I went with jessup. I also used to love DNA, planet Earth.
@@beesteezy3626 I did the same, Jessup seems like the closest option. Never heard of the other 2 brands, maybe I will try them out if I cant find Black Magic anywhere.
@costaricaBL ohh DNA and planet Earth were board companies back in the 90s. I'm sure you can find a image on Google
Those wheels say 101 a on the wheel but 99a on the package lol I have this exact ones😂
@@K_spawn Haha I didn’t even realize, they feel good though. I’m not too picky with wheel durometer, as long as its around 98-101 I cant tell much difference.
Heyyy Shooortyyy 💁🏽♂️
🤣🤣 I gotta watch your video!
that's super sick. i just posted a video about chad muska yesterday
@@diplenski I like the title 🤣 Im gonna check it out. Muska is an OG!
black magic was really good. i think jessup is my favorite
Jessup is pretty good too 👍🏻
'stole' is maybe a bit strong, finders keepers
Yeah technically not stollen but it still sucked, I was so bummed when I came back and it was gone. If I ever see it again Im not gonna say anything, Shorty’s hooked it up so I want to pay it forward.
@@costaricaBL yep, been there.
@@costaricaBL glad it worked out, that was super generous of them. and thoughtful of your partner to reach out
i have some mid 149 standards
Nice! I usually get the standards too but I wanted to try something different and I like the inverted kingpins for feebles and stuff.
@@costaricaBL i don't see much benefit to hollows unless over 8.5", i like the weight of standards. it does help to pop higher and skate longer i suppose, but i still think i'd choose standards up to 8.5". yeah IKP is nice

I dont notice any difference in weight though like you said. Sometimes it even feels better to have a little more weight.
@@costaricaBL i've been working out, calisthenics, push ups and squats and stuff. i think it's done more to help my skating than time on board tbh
@ i currently have 5 setups. i like to have at least one popsicle and one retro/shaped, but i got 3 'quitter completes' off marketplace for cheap
