    I didn't even know Lidl sold skateboards, though. I was in your local one (Leixlip, I guess, although Maynooth might be) last night to get a set of drill bits (yeah, I know...) and they definately weren't selling any...

    whatever you do, dont meet up in Ramp City, two of my friends get in there for free and they would still rather go to ramp n rail.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 958 ✭✭✭liamskater


    How they get in for free? Who are they?

    If you think that is good, you have never skated a good deck.
    And never use the free/ trucks you get with the deck itself, they are a piece of crap.

    I use a Mini Logo deck, Independent trucks, Black Panther's ABEC 3 bearings (fast as hell), Girl risers and bolts.

    Anyway, anyone up for coming to Celbridge on saturday to skate our ramps?
    We need some skaters to skate with up there.

    Here is a pic of our quaterpipe:

    Check, Mate.....
    Hate when people say its how fast they can go.
    I have skated bowns, and swill, i find them kinda rough, like, they the balls are constantly scraping of the inside of the bearing. Meh, thats just me.

    And yes, I love my bearings.

    It's a classification of precision (or tolerance in engineering lingo), not strength.

    But yeah, anything above ABEC 1 is redundant for skateboards. Far more important is the kind of lubricant you use.
