you actually mean the british system right there? the cops there are too strict in most ways, and greedy, take Francis Drake for example, cool pirate, steals tons of gold and the queen takes all of the gold for her, pretty sad story actually, and yes... the british system wants us to think other shitty things, not saying it's bad in any way, except the prices ofc. |

Hehe, talk about Off topic, ok, i'll try to get it back.
Today I spotted:
two girls, teenagers, both on perfect smooth shop floors without their wheels in. Sinners! I couldn't tell you anything else about what they looked like, because I seem to be developing some form of tunnel vision where I only see people's shoes. ROFL |

2 pairs of Rumbles (in my size!) on the clearance shelf at Ross!!!!
Oh and there was a girl in some pink fats model in the Old Navy too! She only had 1 wheel and was desperately trying to footy everywhere with limited success. If I'd had extra wheels that would have fit, I'd have taken pity on her and handed them over!

Aww, poor kid. And 2 pairs of rumbles eh? Were they cheap? If so I'd have snapped em up even if just for the wheels - Rumble wheels rule |

The rumbles were $18 each. I got both, mostly for the wheels, because mine are wearing down. But also because I wear my rumbles almost as much as I wear my ninjas, so they are also almost dead.

Absolutely - with good bearings - rumble wheels are THE fastest "made by HSL" wheels - plus they don't look as crappy after use as normal mega's: the graphics being on the side means they're less likely to get rubbed off or obscured by the wear, and the surface being black means it hides the dirt. Thing of beauty Obviously megaverts would be slightly faster (about 7% by my best calculations) if you get a true pair, since they're about 7% harder, but in my experience the rumbles are often very true and plenty fast, and feel nice to ride on, comfortable, and quiet too! - I can't rate them high enough. (not talking about the rumble SHOE, just the wheels - although I like the shoes too). |

I haven't yet replaced bearings in my rumbles wheels, because I can't get the axles out. But they are hands down my favorite wheels. I almost never use my mega wheels anymore even though they ahve awesome bearings in them.

2 brothers at the local mall, I THINK they had predators, in all that crowd I couldn't really tell, even with the very noticable design, anyway, 'round 13, I asked them where they got the predators and they said the brothers of a friend of theirs had the predators like a lot ago, so the brothers of the friend gave them to them ( confusing eh ) |

I was at the fair yesterday and i was wearing my no-bones.
As i walked in a kid on rumbles.
In line on crazy mouse a kid on rockets.
In line for avalanche right after i had heeled down the hill a kid with octanes come zooming buy and eats it.
A dad in Gelatos.
Some kids (about 4) in TKO's
On that ride that spins you around in superman position a kid in front of me had grind this 9153.
Some kids that kept following me had slides and vectors but turned out they were my cousins. |
