Esk8 confessional

I love building/riding, but
I fucking hate maintenance/repairs/tire swaps. Even worse, going into the enclosure, fuck that noise.

Even though I tend to need back into the enclosure, this is how I feel every time.

TBF I’m still learning to make electronics skate-proof. But if I have to open the e-box then clearly I did something wrong.

The one pearl of wisdom I learned young and now preach:

If you don’t have time to do it right, you better have time to do it again.

getting rid of your Hoyt wheels? what?

5 inch pneumies are just too small for me. You can’t quite ride it with the same confidence as 6 inch pneumies so, I think that’s going to be my minimum. Otherwise I’ll just ride thanes

This is a hole that only 120*80 thanes could fill
