Looks like the Grasp board could be your new favourite. Interesting to see you put it through its paces on the street, ramp and bowls.

[@carlavale6953]

Just started watching your videos. Amazing, love watching it! The silent ones are "art"! Congrats and thanks for the sharing!

[@iantoh354]

Thanks for sharing! Your superb technique makes it all look so easy! yet another scenario where the skills to wield the tool is more important than the tool itself. I shall get back to practising then! 🤣

[@Alexo-Andro]

Yo también uso mi Surfskate sin resortes .. lo uso así hace 3 años y va muy bien! Shane excelentes vídeos !!

[@zulupenman]

[@berndchriste4588]

Great video! Which wheels have you put on the curfboard (size and hardness)?

[@Hibbard1986]

I have the loaded bolsa with the c7 front.. still kinda amazes me how easy you make this look.

[@basiledubroeucq]

thank you for this video, it's great!

[@Prisoner]

btw Waterborne adapter does work very good with a more regular set up, I manage to do the infinity loop pretty comfortably in a 7.8 inches regular street skateboard with waterborne adapter (no rail adapter, only wood planks) and regular trucks + soft penny wheels. so yeah, maybe those trucks you chooses with the waterborne arent a good choice for infinity loop btw the video was very interesting, thanks for sharing

[@shanelai2515]

The smaller the wb , the easier the infinity loop generally. The longer the wb, the more precision needed for bodyweight shifting. The rail adaptor dampens the ride and makes it less reboundy, hence why the energy loss was very significant. Also there is a lot more tuning to find the right hardness to prevent wheelbite, if some rides like me (wanting extra lean)

[@Prisoner]

@@shanelai2515 thanks for the explanation! that surfskate I made is my second skateboard ever and I will try some different setups like you as I get some money to buy more stuff

[@Prisoner]

@@shanelai2515 also letting u know that Ichanged the penny wheels for a 70mm 80a wheels and now it’s even easier to pump/ infinity loop! may I ask u a question? if I am using a regular street skate setup, would you suggest me to buy longer trucks or bigger deck? (my deck is 7.8 and I am 6feet)

[@shanelai2515]

@@Prisoner for surfskating, generally longer wb is desired. Somewhere around 17" give or take 1 or 2" depending on height. Popsicles are 14.5" max. Way too short to make the most out of 'regular' surfskating. My suggestion is get a bigger and wider deck. Something aroun 17" wb and 9" wide

[@Prisoner]

@@shanelai2515 thanks a lot, i will see into getting a better deck

[@EFTPink]

I tested out the Grasp recently. It was super smooth n one of the most responsive truck I've ever experienced. The origin of name(PADO23_trcuk) was also very interesting. it means 23 time of experiment for the final version.

[@Frenchmelodymaker]

Great video dude, as always, will you do another city cruising video? Those are so satisfying Cheers from France

[@shanelai2515]

Tu aime les vidéos avec juste du cruising ? Je vais esseyer 😊

[@Frenchmelodymaker]

Oui, je trouve ça assez intéressant vu que c’est majoritairement ce que je fais, ça me permet de cibler les mouvements à apprendre. Bonne journée !

[@francklelahel639]

super nice video and thank you for your work , im totaly fan ! do you have a price of this new Grasp ? long life for your channel and big cheers from the south of france ;)

[@lacucastro]

Well great video as always mate! but dont you think the waterborne set up that u have its a bit weird? that mix of trucks makes the perform really bad... Im wondering why you choose that combination penny trucks (small) large ones independent in the back? that's a guarantee wheel bite!

[@MrAboolayu]

Yes, waterborne is good one for surf skate, not bad like this

[@jhonatanragasson4993]

Hi Shane, how are you? I'm from Brazil, I would like to know which of these simulators would have less maintenance and would last longer?

[@alecsmith3073]

The Grasp Surfskate and the way you make it work is awesome Shane. The beaut of a board would fit perfectly into my collection. Can you pass on the link please. Cheers A

Hi shane~ i enjoy watching your video One question is, what size wheel base do you like? As a beginner of surf skates, I chose a product with a 20 inch wheel base. What do you think?

[@sharkyj1796]

I see that RipSurf hiding in the back! Try the loop on that one!

[@OriRam]

Thanks for the great content. If you had to pick one, which would you recommend - YOW Erica or Smothstar #77 for practicing correct surfskating technic in a parking lot?

[@shanelai2515]

Too hard to choose. I'm bringing both

[@OriRam]

@@shanelai2515 Thanks :) I guess I meant if you had to choose which one to buy and "both" is not an option. Which will you buy? Thanks again

[@corialcorn4051]

I mostly skate outdoors cause I don't have a garage. I find it hard to do the kind of tight infinity you do with 65-70mm wheels. Do the smaller wheels you use in the garage help? Or is it just my immature form? 😀

[@shanelai2515]

The wheels should not affect the 'pumpability' of the board.

[@silaswolfe381]

That Korean surfskate deck reminds me of Sea Rat Skateboards

[@wodyd8217]

😊 👍

[@MegaLenny1000]

Just for your accent it is in worth watching Your Channel mate :D question: is There a Difference between the yow S5 Truck and the meraki? Or is it the very Same? Cheers !

[@shanelai2515]

What does my accent say I'm from ? S5 feels flowy-er with a longer arm. Meraki slightly snappy-er (shorter arm).

do you have a link to order the Grasp surfskate ? the board looks awesome !

They will eventually sell it on Amazon

[@fabiomagalhaes9598]

Can anybody tell me where to find and buy these boards?

[@victor-emmanuel7485]

Am I correct in saying that te swelltech springs are not even necessary to use it?

[@shanelai2515]

Yeah that's right. You lose a bit of rebound though

[@victor-emmanuel7485]

@@shanelai2515 Thanks! I've been thinking about getting one but still haven't pulled the trigger. Hesitating between a Yow or a Swelltech.... Do they perform simillar on flat ground (in the sense of generating and keeping up momentum)? The Swelltech right now is more enticing to me as I'm a surfer and really want to work on my technique and zen out while trying to master something rather challenging. Yet Yow seems more durable, aesthetically pleasing, popular, more readily available and less obscure.

[@MrPsiman]

in conclusion which performed the best ?

[@noohohno]

More concave compared to the YOW Arica? Beautiful board. More concave would make its beauty more than "skin deep".

[@shanelai2515]

The Arica is pretty flat (this year model), whereas grasp has a nice deep concave.

[@noohohno]

@@shanelai2515 Thanks for the info. Their website notes sold through amazon when available. Personal choice for deeper concave then what my '21 Arica has. If funds allow.

How about hamboards hst2.0, I have paskowitz

멋지다^^

[@wre66425616]

I am practicing infinity loop with a waterborne setup, but is having difficulty transition between heel and toe, does this mean its time for a new board?😂 I don't think I am getting wheel bite on the rear, as I got a pin tail deck.

[@rinky_dinky]

But ...isn't that what you've been doing all this time ?
