Whether it’s learning new tricks or simply wearing in a new ledge spot, there are always uses for skates which are nearing the end of their life and it means you can get the most use out of them, be less wasteful and also benefit in some form. Try it out and let me know what you think.
I set myself the challenge of seeing how many different unity grinds I could do on a knee-high marble ledge. Variations include frontside, backside, alley-oop and various spins into different versions of the grind. How many did I manage? Watch and see.

TNEC owner Duran Bickmore was a guest on episode 74 of Platform podcast and I enjoyed it so much I’ve had him a back on a couple of times. The last one was a Patreon exclusive chat, but this time I wanted to see how he was doing now he is back on skates after breaking his ankle, find out a little more about TNEC’s team, which has grown quite a bit in the past 12 months, and he completely blindsided me by showing off the new UFS boot he is working on. We also talk about a bunch of industry stuff and he offers a refreshingly transparent insight into how his business is going, the number of sales and trends he is witnessing as a shop owner and company owner.

In my constant quest to find products which make street ledges slide faster, I decided to give external gloss varnish a shot and I was pleasantly surprised. If you’re like me and you find that aerosol lacquer spray doesn’t create enough of a layer on the ledge and you still need to break it in for quite some time with a repetitive cycle of waxing and skating, and wearing down your skates, this could be the thing for you. Disclaimer: Doing DIY on streets spots isn’t exactly legal, so you may want to take extra care or get a friend to keep lookout while you do it. Then again, street skating isn’t exactly legal either, so…To watch more videos like this, join the Wheel Scene Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/c/wheelsceneHere is a link to the product I used in this video – Fortress Trade 750ml clear gloss varnish:https://www.screwfix.com/p/fortress-trade-750ml-clear-gloss-solvent-based-exterior-yacht-varnish/326pcAlso, here is a link to the lacquer I normally get on eBay:https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/364336054845?_skw=clear+lacquer&epid=7044116416&itmmeta=01JXDSBY58K7ZXVZNPT4KP9NXV&hash=item54d41f023d:g:TdUAAOSwTIdm6-Hm&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1dgm5cafKmPDtexz%2Fd%2BiHgVF3HHXH1rW9EERBvrbJePGzJ9%2Bcry94wz8b%2FLirym7aYfKMeIRGq09pDWkCCdLe5ZxjZs9WcOCsZWmUeCMAtSdy5mtsUDxPHe9xOpO1Hcb4QzdlWeAa5iUR%2FiCFhKzNcZd1FAeA0ljK9lBbFmU48ts5cgcBbfAp3pdpdoXDiR0HY1N3doN%2FZIbxVp0xRS8UxFuP6Rxl%2BkftGESdASjwrvCqewGev8CsFLf%2FjM8XhE3s0tc02wsVkAaqYf4KAW3wLvYc63OmG0K49sIh0%2BOuPnJA%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR-7ir7nrZQ
