    0:22 Is style arbitrary?

    I think it’s funny that they copyright claim when so much of the early skateboarding industry was based on straight ripping off/lampooning/adopting/incorporating other people’s stuff/ideas/logos/etc and/or using music without permission/license.

    Aside from durability, what's next for decks? Is it specialty shapes like Andy Anderson's pro models?

      I think there's room for more carve-ey hybrid street surf-meets-bowl or street surf-does-slappy-targeted trucks, and I could see wheelcuts eventually becoming the norm, but in terms of design, Kape's like 2nd or third generation Vanguard prototype with built-in ribs was the first really new thing I've seen in a while. Their most recent Vanguard prototype is the most hyped I've been for a board in years, mainly because I think I'll finally have a sog-proof/rain-proof board.
      I don't see it happening for a long, long time, but eventually, I think someone will do an electric that is durable enough for street, which would open up some truly dumb stuff-spots with minimal run-up and no room for a tow-in or bungee.
      Normally, I would think that would be too niche to catch on, but as the population as a whole gets more accustomed to seeing electrics as a viable option for short commutes, I could see that sort of thing eventually having enough crossover appeal to get made.

      I don't skate anymore cause my knees are shot. But I do play disc golf, and one of the things manufacturers always try to do is reduce the weight of the inside (flight plate) of the disc, and increase the rate of the outside (rim) , to increase spin rate. Maybe some skateboard manufacturer will do something similiar by using very lightweight materials and with heavier stuff composite stuff on the sides to increase spin speed of tricks.

      deluxe has a new shape called easy riders with the concave extending into the kicks and shorter wheel bases are trending up at the moment,
      Lurpiv trucks have a anti wheel bite design and some other companies are doing inverted kingpins now which I can see being the future

    • @28russ
      @28russ 27 днів тому

      What he said ^^. Inverted king pins. I just watched a vid about the new Indy's (new 3 years or so ago lol). I Haven't skated for like 15 years so I'm a few years behind the times lol. I had Grind Kings 20 years ago or more (I'm old lol) with the domed top and Allen key. But good to see with the Indy's you've got the option of Allen key and hex cause once ya ground the Allen key hole a bit they were impossible to tighten or take out. And Allen keys on anything just kinda suck in general lol. Did GK have the patent or something? I can't believe it's taken Indy this long and they weren't standard on every brand of truck years ago.🤷‍♂

    I feel like maybe someone could do something with bearings? That might be one that is kind of perfect the way it is especially in terms of profit margins, on the other hand ball bearings have been phased out in favor of longer lasting, more efficient alternatives in a lot of other industries. Maybe something that is self lubricating? that could be cool.

    The retro rippers situation must be infuriating! getting copyrighted for those clips must be the equivalent of DMCA for music. Stuff like that stifles the creativity of content creators on UA-cam! UA-cam needs to have some sort of leniency for the strict guidelines they employ on here for the content creator's to be a more user friendly platform! strict guidelines like this will only deter creativity on here and god forbid turn to "RUMBLE"...
