Nine Club

Looking forward to this one.

When Crob says ā€˜Huh’ it’s easier if you think of him as saying ā€˜You just said something important but I don’t understand why’

It’s really good. He’s so nice. It’s funny hearing him describe what he does to the viewers, and then again for Chris Roberts.

Oh my, this is the best episode ever! He’s literally explaining exactly how my brain works about skate hardwear. I think he’s me real dad! Although he’s far too clever for that to be. I’m just the stupid lazy version of him. I found myself smiling when he was explaining exactly what my pivot balance diagram thing does. ha
Still got an hour to go.

I now want a board with 2 fingers space worth of flat on the nose and tail. Super flat concave.

I wonder if he consults online, would happily pay for this shit

I can’t stand the boards with that finger space, coupled with Indy’s you’d be wheelying around uncontrollably. I like to feel the kick right on the pivot point, otherwise I can’t find the bite for manuals. If you have loads of flat in that area there is too much space to vary that bite so you might get into manuals easier but they’d be way less controlled.

Horses for courses aye

I had a Stereo boards with the flat space on the nose. Could not balance a nose manual on it for love nor money! AVOID!

I think I have a hardware problem.

That’s great news.
It’s not me.

Just getting into this.
The comment about Fausto/thrasher is pretty interesting…been shooting for the mag for 4 years but never earned a penny, so when Fausto asked to go into business with him, he turned him down.

Same with the Brad Doffman comments. No hate, just no love.

Didn’t realise he invented rounded edged boards too! So much nerd out!!

I think that it’s been posted on the forum before but here’s the ā€˜Pop Higher Ollies with Science’ video that gets mentioned…

I’m half way through the Schmitt schtick and really enjoying it. Pleasantly surprised to see less nerdy people like it too!

As grown up and educational as this one was, I did chuckle at CRob’s ā€œHe’s used to a thin rail sliding into a crackā€ line early on.
