This is fantastic, thanks for the hard work!

someone tell Tony Hawk about this manga lol

 

[doomskull]

Pretty sure the store clerk is a madam rather than a sir, unless they deliberately use Male pronouns to address her

The proportions and design are clearly male - the eyelashes are the only thing that muddies the water a bit, since it's traditionally eschewed from men.

Skateboarding is serious business

 

[brisketsweep]

Talking about her nonstop to everyone around her... Picking out a deck for her with an iris flower on it... Hmmm....

If only her name was Lily.

Also godDAMN that shopkeeper's a handsome woman.

I wish this manga was around back when I was a kid. X games and Tony Hawk were big but I didn't know what the FUCK I was doing and got discouraged due to a lack of balancing skill. Maybe there was something wrong with the board I was given on a whim, or I wore the wrong type of shoes. Maybe I simply just needed to get good. It's been so long...

MANGA OF THE YEAR!

I skateboarded a lot growing up and its so cool to see it represented so accurately. This chapter perfectly captures the feeling of trying out a new board and feeling it work just right.

A way to express yourself in Skateboarding are split in 2 parts, your deck and trick set.

Some people stick with the same board width whenever they need new decks. This also spread to trucks heights and wheel size and hardness combo. Most skateboarders I know tend to stick with the same brand of bearings for the rest of their life (BONES RED obviously) but it is their own and fit their trick set.

For contrast, Inline skater uses similar skate mold and liners for their skates, except the speed skaters who either got carbon based boot or molded to fit their feet in particular. I am agressive inline guy, so some of our tricks can be plain crazy to skateboard perspectives or vice versa.

why the long comments? Well, I feel like I should mention that some aggro inline skater are very particular about their WHEELS. Our wheels in general are softer than skateboards, skateboards wheels generally range around 90-95A, while inline prefers a bit softer wheels at around 86-92A (Aggressive only). Grip of the wheels are more related to the compound than hardness, so chose wisely.
