I broke 3 Alien Workshops in a week and half and wrote that brand off forever at that point, but I think it was honestly fault boards and my shop refused to replace any. Stupid question, but is there any technique to getting better pop? Like I said, I'm out of shape now and out of practice, but I'd like to get back to where I was which was 8 board stacked. I'm wondering if it's just going to be about shedding the pounds to get it back or if there's better foot placements that will go better.
Also good to see another Grind King fan. My friend and I swore by them but everyone else hated them. I remember wearing my first pair down to the fucking pin before I retired them. Lasted me 3 years and I've never broke a pair. Just caught your edit, and cool thanks for the info. CCS was unfortunately the only reliable online skate store I could remember and they only had Grind King pins, but no trucks. Thanks for the info :D.
