Street skating can happen anywhere, anyhow.

Something to think about the next time some douche nugget tears down your park or when the lights go out at the local skatepark. Hit the streets!
But remember – skating isn’t a crime, but acting like a skater douche is douchey.

Time to throw away them old fashioned ABEC rated bearings. You guys do know that there is very little difference between an ABEC1 or an ABEC9 right? Not unless you’re a precision machine equipment. So, for the rest of us, we’ll need a different standard to guide our bearing purchasing.

So what are ILQ-9s?

ILQ-9?s go beyond ABEC rating in terms of performance, durability, design, and materials. Since ABEC only measures precision tolerance, ABEC-7 bearings can be made out of inferior steel as long as they are accurate enough. The all-new 6-ball ILQ-9 has only one standard: the best. ILQ-9 considers precision tolerance plus other variables like design features, lubrication, and quality of materials.

ILQ-9 Pro’s are protected by a specially designed S-channel rubber shield. The SCRS presents an even more complex entry path for moisture and contamination. It is 95% effective at keeping the bearing clean. A nylon retainer on the inner face is shaped like a crown and is easy to remove and replace for servicing.

Time to move on up kiddies, Its ILQ time. Ditch those old ABECs.

We’ve finally got a restock on the super popular range of Thunder Lights trucks.
Shaped just like your normal Thunder truck, but with a neat trick, the axles and kingpins are hollow, making your trucks much lighter, but just as strong.

The first batch took off pretty damn fast! You could say as fast as a bunch of marauding bladers on hopped up 80mm wheels with ILQ9 bearings.

Anyway – we’re back with a new batch of Powerblading Kizer Advance & Arrow frames. This time, we’ve given it a little Chinese New Year twist with red Powerslide FSK wheels. From what we hear, these wheels are better than the previous powerblading wheels. Designed for freeskating, these wheels have a wider profile and a lighter spoked hub. Looks great, works better, we’re convinced.

An insightful video about the relationship between skaters and the street spots they love.

But remember boys and girls, nobody owes you anything. If you get kicked out of a spot, accept that gracefully and move on to the next. Those public rails and ledges are for everyone, you do not have the right to ‘own’ it and scrape the paint on it. Skateboarding is not a crime, but vandalism is.

The new Foo Art, Joe Ipoh & Alif Suhaimi pro-decks are here. These are hands down the best looking Malaysian skateboard decks ever! Local graff artist Katun did a great job stylizing the 3 pro-riders.

We have them in stock but we can’t sell them yet. After their launch next Friday (27Jan2012), the decks will be ready for sale.
You can still be one of the first to ride them by Pre-Ordering from us. Just drop a deposit and we’ll set them aside for you. Come Jan 27th, you can rock the decks like a “pro in the know”. Heck, we’ll even throw in a RM10 sticker pack to keep you smiling.
Pre-order them from SHOP.WL33.COM.

Every now and then you’ll come across an online edit that totally changes your point of view on your favourite sport.
It isn’t just about who’s got the hottest skate, what colour combo you’ve got on your blade or who rides for who.
It should also be about doing something good for a fellow human being.
