Nice 👍🏾 I just ordered that deck! I had the OG one back in the day!

[@diplenski]

santa cruz/nhs is sick. i appreciate how they keep people around, former pro skaters still have a home there - jeff kendall, ron whaley, eric dressen, salba, judi oyama, etc. some of them been there 40 years, still skating or not. in an industry that often treats people as disposable, it's pretty refreshing to see. especially from one of the bigger/more established brands.

[@diplenski]

i have an everslick, it's pretty cool. they slide fast, you can get broke off if you're not expecting it.

[@diplenski]

i like the brown button up

[@jasonharris5201]

I can tell you that the VX is a longer lasting skateboard. Watch Maurio McCoy’s video where he breaks his board and still skated it. I’ve done that and it is still skatable. Keep these videos coming. I didn’t like the double duros, but the Spitfire formula four Reynolds are impressive or Powell Dragons are interesting. You should try them out.

[@diplenski]

i'm 6'3, 210ish. usually a lg long/tall, but usually go xl or xxl on hoodies

[@ryanmcfadin09]

Love this man. I skate pretty much every day for at least an hour. I go through a deck about every three weeks. So this is definitely relevant to me, haha. I'd love to see you guys look at the new Andy Anderson deck. There's a lot of hype around it.

[@diplenski]

i like 56-60mm bc they last longer, roll faster, and usually wider

[@diplenski]

i have some ojII wheels from the '80s i still ride, 60mm 97a

[@jamesonbrackner1927]

Hey guys! Let me first say that I like what you're doing,testing products and the idea of breaking said products down to the core to ultimately find out if it lives up to the manufacturers claims.i have been a skateboarder for 30+ years and applying this idea to,not only sk8 shoes,but decks and weels,especially is a very good thing! I started watching rose anvil because of the way it essentially calls the manufacturers out and I've been impressed with your findings.that being said I'm looking forward to your scientific approach to skateboarding.thanks boys!

[@janthony8]

That would be cool to see more skateboard tech reviews

[@ashwilliams8903]

This channel would do well to get into the raw denim world. Talk about heritage methods of constructing garments!

[@kins749]

Love Santa Cruz, the first deck I bought with my own money, a Rob Roskopp in 1988, and still wear their gear which is great quality (too old to skate now 😆)

[@SkaterPoopyPants]

I even love the fact that santa cruz would send you guys boards who don't even skate just as free advertising not buying your boards santa cruz and rose anvil won't convince me

[@Marcg-b4n]

My first Skateboard with polyurethane wheels was a orange Cal 240, Christmas 1974! I have a black one and one orange mint, never used. I got them on ebay about 15 years ago.

[@haroldcampos9661]

Hell yeah, gotta love getting a box full of skateboard stuff. I gotta pay for it tho lol

[@matt_batt]

I love that you guys are self aware - good dudes

[@lopeysreviews1376]

I enjoi all the skate related stuff! I think it's a big part of millennial life and getting bigger all the time!

[@joshwood241]

I'm so stoked about this idea!

[@JaysonBucy]

I love this so much, Santa Cruz is epic

[@IndigoOak]

Saw the janoski in the thumbnail, so i clicked. Where did you find that colorway?

[@freestatefellow]

Honestly, watching you try on the Huckberry stuff would be helpful because I'm a similar build to you Weston.

[@clintwestwood1895]

show how the board rides rails, how slick is it really.

[@justoutside0]

amazing idea!

[@diplenski]

love the dance moves @4:13

[@diplenski]

every time you say 'iron snail' i think of those snails that live by hydrothermal vents in the ocean and make their shells and armor plates out of metal. they are wild looking, soft pink bodies with black/graphite shells and plates/scutes. i think there are white shelled ones too, depending on what minerals are available

[@josh33025]

Have you guys considered making blood core belts? I didn't see an option for them.

[@diplenski]

jessup is the best grip

[@lucianodeer]

I'd be obsessed with more skate content, an adjacent topic I feel would go well is derby skates, like roller-skates. A lot are made in the USA, of leather but then use the most buzzwords they can

[@over-educated-sp]

I like it.

[@seedubhuntx]

the hardcore longboarding community probably has a better idea of bearings than the average street skater. fun fact the "skrt" sound street skaters love when powersliding goes away when reducing the slop in your bearings and wheels

[@diplenski]

i almost spit out my coffee laughing when i read 'hardcore' and 'longboarding' in the same sentence, but then i remembered seeing some of those downhill folks and that stuff is super gnarly.

[@diplenski]

i like kershaw knives, but i don't think i'd like that at all. folding or fixed blade

[@betulaobscura]

I would focus on boots and shoes.

[@NoxiousPond]

Really cool seeing this as a fairly new skater. No disrespect but if you do start doing more skate stuff I’d just research more. Skateboarding is incredible but it’s very “you can’t fake the funk” so don’t just go into this stuff without some knowledge. (I’m mostly talking about Weston since he doesn’t skate)

[@diplenski]

you don't have to cut the wheels to test them, the core is exposed

[@SkaterPoopyPants]

Someone who knows nothing about skating is gonna test free products great... great idea, and even the dude you got as a "real" skater seems a little sketchy without being offensive

[@diplenski]

i don't own any trucks over 8.5" even on 9-10" boards

[@isaaceagel3220]

i would love a look at the different decks because to me they all look like scams, especially because of the price

[@thehuntstudio17]

Dude. 9:35 before you start even cutting the tape on the box. Before then is just shameless plugs and unpaid ads. I'm about to clock out.

[@gqfiend]

5:24 goodness gracious! This guy won't shut up about this type of person. I feel like he had a one night stand with somebody and fell in love… But that guy won't call him back. Settle down with the tree huggers, Dude. We are with you, but you don't need to mention them in every video.

[@gqfiend]

5:36 speaking of "cringe." Maybe you could be less cringe in regards to obsessing over these folks?
