Been enjoying my 7.75 lately.
Although, it can be kind of sketchy but that's the fun of it. Skateboarding becomes stale at times so creating a unique challenge while also bringing new advantages into the game as well.
Classic. . . the pros and the cons
The cons;
Sometimes my tail feels way too fucking small.
Drops can be sketchy too;
if you land funky the board will throw you in ways that an 8.25+ will never do.
The Pros;
I find the 7.75 to be more casual. I do not see myself as a "skateboarder" sure. I skate on a regular basis but I don't love to see skateboarding as an athletic ordeal. I enjoi the math aspect of it. sure I am not Rodney Mullen (although I would like to be) nor am I even very Technical with my skating. I just overall like to think more about what I have to do with my feet and shit than how much force I need to do a simple thing. maybe I'm just weak. . . (that's besides the point)
It deserves nostalgia points too. Nothing better than when cute sk8er boys rode around on skinny boards with tight pants and big shoes.
I also like to play around with freestyle skateboarding. The skinny boards make going into a rail stand and Caspers much more achievable on a consistent basis.
I also look sick as fuck on a 7.75
Suck my dick.
