Grindplate: BBK

The Ordnance shoes were very heavy duty but had more styling than the first generation models. In addition, they had great control during grinds, and a great price. Ordnances are a very popular among some of the world's best soapers. Ordnances come standard with replacable BBK grind plates. The Ordnances are now discontinued.

Colors:
-Red Asphault (black / white / maroon)
-Petrol (navy / white / yellow)
-Flint (grey / white / orange)
-Black/Grey (black / greys)
-Blue/White (blue / grey / white)

Sizes: 3-13 (Petrol came in 14)

HOW DO U BUY THESE SHOES?

Apr 25, 2006 Surfaced

CALM DOWN. Ask in the forum. I am your man for all of that.

Apr 30, 2006 AnthoFlex

Dude are they light?

May 1, 2006 James

They look extremely light,but thats just my guess.There are some on eBay you can ask the seller if they are light or not if someone here does'nt know.

May 1, 2006 Surfaced

James.. you'd know. You own Squeakys. They are almost identical. Give us a review, man.

May 1, 2006 Sugarfree

These were the very first pair of soaps i ever owned. Unfortunately they were not a light shoe, my scabs are actually lighter than they were. As for the whole grinding thing they were amazing on rails and despite the bbk grind plate it was actually a long lasting grind plate. Many curbs were hit with those shoes, lol Good shoes tho

May 18, 2006 chip

ya i agrey theas shoes are amazing but there not as lite as the scabs

May 18, 2006 chip

do you hafto get a bigger plate for a bigger shoe

May 18, 2006 chip

theas shoes are amazing the beast shoes i have ever wore and seen

Jul 3, 2006 Rick

Just snatched a pair from Go2Crew on the good ol' eBay. Can't wait to get these babies.

Jul 8, 2006 Rick

My pair just arrived, definitely really slick shoes. They seem a lot lighter than my old Scabs, and definitely feel a lot better.

Jul 17, 2006 Ryozox

LOL same here Rick, from the same person too! Mine are a coming!
man, that was a great price, huh?

Jul 17, 2006 Rick

You're telling me. I snatched them up as soon as he told me they were back up. Not more than a day after they were all sold out.

Jul 17, 2006 Tatacker

No wonder most of the stock has gone.

Damn, I need to get some.

Jul 18, 2006 Ryozox

I saw them the day they came up, just had to get the money, luckily I did before they were all gone because if that happened then, well, sucks for me! lol

Jul 26, 2006 Ryozox

I just noticed that tha black and red ones look like shadow..

Jul 29, 2006 AnthoFlex

i dunt see what ur seeing dude... lol

Jul 30, 2006 IrrefuseD

I'm pretty sure he meant the color scheme, because they definitely don't look like hedgehogs.

Jul 30, 2006 AnthoFlex

hmm....i know that but i still dunt see what you are seeing...I think the A-sides look more like Shadow's...if ony they were a different color scheme

Aug 1, 2006 Ryozox

yeah, I meant the color scheme, lol they dont actually LOOK like shadows. But yeah, I just got my pair yesterday, they rule!

Aug 1, 2006 SapAuthor

There's a pair on ebay, i'm thinking about making a bid, they don't seem to be going for much but this is the pair i wanted, plus i have the extra BBK grey plates that i never got rid of. I just have to convince my mom that paying 40 bucks for a pair of shoes is a good idea even though i have a pair, expecially since i go through them so fast.

Aug 1, 2006 Mart

There's no shock absorption in any old Soaps dude, just thought you should know

Aug 2, 2006 SapAuthor

yah, but it's the arches that helped my feet. My old pairs of nike air had a HUGE shock obsorber, but my feet ended up hurting like crazy. Since i got my expresses, my feet don't hurt anymore, and the shock absorber on them (although present) are much smaller than my nike air pair.

Aug 2, 2006 IrrefuseD

About 3" of the heel came off of the shoe near the front on mine, connected to the suede. I superglued it together several times, and it worked, but I guess the suede's permanently damaged now.

Aug 2, 2006 Mart

...how can the heel come off at the front, when it's at the back?

Aug 2, 2006 IrrefuseD

I meant sole.
Wow, those two words sound nothing alike. Boy is my face red, heh.

Aug 2, 2006 SapAuthor

Glad you cleared that up, cuz i was wondering hte same thing as mart.

Irrefuse, how long before the sole started to come off? and superglue isn't the best for things of that nature, you need something a bit thicker, i could be wrong but i think rubber cement works good since it can move a little.

Aug 2, 2006 Mart

Trev's right, superglue has no flex so the sole is likely to peel away from the shoe again. There's this stuff you can buy called Shoe Goo, it's basically liquid rubber in a tube that, when set, forms a solid rubber mass which is very flexible, and it's perfect for sticking soles of shoes back together

Aug 3, 2006 IrrefuseD

I've had the shoes for a few weeks, but I never really wore them unless I was soaping, which would be a few days.

Thanks for the info, guys. We didn't have rubber cement at the time, and I didn't want to leave it the way it was. I'll pick some of the stuff up next time I go out.

You'd be able to find rubber cement at a Home Depot. or any other hardware store, right?

Aug 5, 2006 IrrefuseD

And for the record, the Krazy Glue undid itself.

Aug 26, 2006 SigmaPoe

OMFG that is dope the red and black one gose DUMB

Aug 28, 2006 Kile

i got my Ordnance Flints off ebay n came with UHF grind plates wtf has any one ever heard of that shit ?

Aug 28, 2006 AnthoFlex

Like on our AIM convo, that is horrible luck dude

Sep 17, 2006 AnthoFlex

and then we l8r found out that they were BBKs hahahaha

Sep 17, 2006 SonicSoaper

Somebody at eBay ain't doing their job right.

Sep 21, 2006 shdook

I juat got new ordnace's today they kick ass.

Sep 25, 2006 matrix8967

I just bought my ordnance flint off Ebay (I havnt gotten them yet...i wanted the red asphault or petrol but i had to get flint...also, mine says it comes with BBK plates, but could i take off the BBK plates and replace them with say curb busters? or do certain shoes go with certain plates only? (i'm a size 9-10)

---Alex

Sep 26, 2006 AnthoFlex

All removable plates are mix and matchable

Sep 26, 2006 matrix8967

thanks for the info. : )

---Alex

Oct 6, 2006 twitch

I still have and use my pair of Ordnance's :D

Oct 31, 2006 AnthoFlex

wow! i never noticed this, but is that the way the Original BBKs used to look like? Look at the Ordnance with the Yellow plate...The part of the plate where the top screws go is closed!....they're supposed to be open haha

And my Ordnance rock....They're fucking wierd!
Just look at my Size 10 Ordnance with size 7/8 Curb Busters.....



if that doesnt work then heres the direct link

http://img323.imageshack.us/img323/2184/ordnanceplatelb2.jpg

Oct 31, 2006 matrix8967

Yeah that is wierd, you might want to get that looked at...it could be infected...

---Alex

Oct 31, 2006 Slidey

I think when you first get the shoe the plate is like that, all replacement plates I own havent got a closed top where the screws are put, but my first plates that I got with the shoe do. Also all the replacement UHFs have closed tops

Nov 28, 2006 mgm

The older plates came closed but the newer ones came open.

Nov 28, 2006 mgm

Also, my petrol ordances are the best looking shoes ever.

Nov 28, 2006 matrix8967

i want petrol so bad...my white (er...blue) whales

---Alex

Dec 2, 2006 JVilleSoaper

there is a pair of these size 10 goin for about $130 on ebay
i think these bidders are crazy or is the shoe really worth that

Dec 2, 2006 Surfaced

130 USD? Where did you see this? They really aren't, Steve sells them all of the time for like $35.

Dec 2, 2006 JVilleSoaper

it was on ebay
that is one lucky seller though
im thinkin bout some sylon whites or spectrums
i know the spectrums are better but i like how the whites look

Dec 2, 2006 Go2Crew

First of all I think the Ordnance is a very good, almost bulletproof pair of Soaps. They take abuse and hold up considerably well. The really foolish part of the story above is that gmbus (the eBay seller) bought three pair of my slightly shopworn Flints in a size ten about four weeks and now it appears he has two guys bidding on a pair of them insanely! It's a great shoe but original retail was $84.99 ....and I still have a decent backup stock. If either of those guys reads this, wise-up gentlemen! When I saw that bidding war happening, I listed a brand new pair for starting bid of $40.75 behind it, ... just to stop the madness.

Oh, and Hi David, glad to see you back on the Forum! ---Steve

Jan 3, 2007 Soopahsonic

The one downside is that the white suede gets dirty easily. the upside to the downside(I lol'd) is that there are really inexpensive kiwi suede erasers that work wonderfully in fixing the problem.

Jan 3, 2007 Soopahsonic

I mean on the flints the, one Steve is selling.

Jan 3, 2007 SonicSoaper

Yeeeeah. I'm not a person who goes OCD if my shoes get dirty. That's what they were made for.

Jan 4, 2007 siuol7

im just starting to soap and got a pair of these off ebay are they any good?

Jan 5, 2007 SonicSoaper

These, my friend, are considered the best shoes in the line. With the Slo-Bro platyes, they're a force to be reckoned with.

Jan 9, 2007 vmn551

just got a pair of these for my first soap shoe.
They're great for any beginners.

Jan 9, 2007 snikas

---Alex

Jan 10, 2007 snikas

what type did you get or were you the one to get the petrols?

Jan 10, 2007 siuol7

i won the petrols about a week ago just waiting for them to come in.
those the ones your talking about?

Jan 18, 2007 siuol7

i just got mine and i think they're great.

Now i have to get my friends some soaps

Feb 5, 2007 ordnanceflint91

Feb 6, 2007 matrix8967

I LOVE Petrols...i want some so bad. and red asphault. i'm a size 10 (product placement :D)

---Alex

Feb 11, 2007 AnthoFlex

I know someone who has Metal BBKs on their Ordnance Petrols

Feb 11, 2007 siuol7

Yea i know someone with metal plates on their soaps to.
I've never seen a picture of the shoe but it has the soap symbol.

Feb 11, 2007 SonicSoaper

Metal huh? Must be hard to make a groove in those.

Feb 11, 2007 cherryman696966

if its metal it would also spark on metal rails

Feb 11, 2007 AnthoFlex

It Sparks if you grind ledges and BX 12-2 and BX 12-3 cables

Feb 11, 2007 AnthoFlex

And if you grind regular rails, theres this sick sounding

*CHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
IIIIINKKKKKK***

Feb 12, 2007 SonicSoaper

Sweeeeeeet.

Feb 12, 2007 matrix8967

custom made metal plates I presume?

---Alex

Feb 12, 2007 AnthoFlex

Yea

Feb 23, 2007 kobansora

I want metal plates :c

~JJ

Feb 23, 2007 SonicSoaper

Now if only Renny could loose the plates on his Express shoes and make some metal plates. Then all he has to do is airbrush them like Sonic's shoes and BAM! Exact replica.

Feb 23, 2007 snikas

Metal plates.... that would be somrthing to see

Feb 23, 2007 SonicSoaper

Dario made a pair. From what I hear, they're kickass.

Feb 23, 2007 AnthoFlex

he didnt MAKE a pair, he HAS a pair

Feb 24, 2007 SonicSoaper

Hold on, he didn't make the metal plates?

Feb 24, 2007 AnthoFlex

Nope

Feb 24, 2007 SonicSoaper

Oh. Okay.

Feb 25, 2007 Hattmac02

i ordered these today from go2, i hope they will be good

Feb 25, 2007 shdook

I personally like these the best now.

Feb 25, 2007 Hattmac02

so there good

Feb 25, 2007 shdook

yes they are

Feb 25, 2007 shdook

its a shame that their discountinued

Feb 25, 2007 Hattmac02

not for long hopefully

Feb 26, 2007 matrix8967

they'd have to be. HSL doesn't have the molds or dies from In-stride or Artemis Innovations...HSL only has the Express and T-bone stuff now. and they haven't released the T-bones again.

---Alex

Feb 26, 2007 Hattmac02

that really sux. But im hoping they come out with the a-sides they look pretty sweet

Feb 26, 2007 AnthoFlex

Alex, I was talking to "someone" about a week or two ago.....HSL has every single mold, plate, plate mold, dyes, EVERYTHING from the old Soap days

Feb 26, 2007 AnthoFlex

they have been lying to everyone

Feb 26, 2007 SonicSoaper

Dum dum DUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Feb 26, 2007 kobansora

Oh noes!

Wait... Who said what?

~JJ

Feb 26, 2007 Hattmac02

sonic u might of just made my day

Feb 26, 2007 Hattmac02

if its true that is

Feb 26, 2007 AnthoFlex

Sonic? or ME? Im the one who revealed that info

And its not my authority to say who i heard this from....

but i will say this, he or she knows what they are talking about....and if anyone knows anything about this, its THAT person, no question about it.

Feb 26, 2007 Hattmac02

oops my bad i meant antho, i just saw sonics quote while i was typing and accidently put his

Mar 3, 2007 Hattmac02

i got these today and they have what look like the bbk plate but it says uhf is anyone elses like this

Mar 3, 2007 kobansora

They say that.

~JJ

Mar 3, 2007 Hattmac02

its weird, why do they say that

Mar 3, 2007 AnthoFlex

UHF is a mini brand by Soap that made the plate sin the Artmeis/In-stride days.

What you are thinking about are the UHF ORIGINALS

if it all came down to it, you could pretty much say that the plates out there are the:

UHF Original
UHF BBK
UHF Slobro
UHF Curb Buster
UHF Octane
UHF Impact
UHF Slipknot
even UHF Speedsters

and maybe maxwells too, but im not too sure

theres also a UHF Key (for the screws)

Mar 3, 2007 SonicSoaper

That says Soap. I got an In-Stride wavier sticker on my Expresses so it doesn't really matter who I sue. XD

Mar 3, 2007 AnthoFlex

Wtf, r u seirous?

Mar 3, 2007 SonicSoaper

It says, and I quote...

"By peeling this sticker, you agree to waive the right to sue IN-STRIDE. Incorporated and their owners, officers, ect. ect.

Mar 3, 2007 AnthoFlex

Oh shit thats funny, HSL is on crack

Mar 3, 2007 SonicSoaper

If you want I pic, I'm planning on taking the sticker off of my wall and snapping it.

Mar 3, 2007 Hattmac02

mine say that aswell, so i can still sue hsl right, just not in-stride

Mar 3, 2007 Hattmac02

mine say that aswell, so i can still sue hsl right, just not in-stride

Mar 3, 2007 AnthoFlex

Sue HSL and all of our hardwork will go down the toilet morons

Mar 3, 2007 Hattmac02

i wont sue

Mar 3, 2007 SonicSoaper

Who said I was sueing anyone. Just wanted to take a pic.

Mar 3, 2007 guero12

Metal plates!
Cool.

Mar 3, 2007 guero12

So HSL has all the previous models and plates.

Mar 3, 2007 guero12

Yeah, that IN-STRIDE being in the sticker is true.

Mar 4, 2007 matrix8967

whoa, i've been gone a few weeks, and i just read all this.

you're fucking joking? they have it all!? those ass holes! i just talked to another someone at HSL and they said they didn't have all those! fuckers! I'm so pissed off.

I also have an IN-STRIDE sticker on my Express.

---Alex

Mar 4, 2007 matrix8967

oh, and I know who you're talking about antho. :) it's nice of you not to tell such things.

Mar 4, 2007 SonicSoaper

Yes, very very nice. ;)

Mar 4, 2007 AnthoFlex

Yo AJ, my comments was aimed at Hattmac02

Mar 4, 2007 AnthoFlex

where i got my info is a secret.....but i assure you that they are VERY much so true

Mar 4, 2007 SonicSoaper

Aight, cool.

Mar 4, 2007 Hattmac02

antho, it was sarcasm

Mar 5, 2007 yanninicole

i like this shoe did you get thim from dick

Mar 6, 2007 ordnanceflint91

i just won some of the blue/grey/white ordnance on ebay...woohoo the most rare ordnance style out there i believe

Mar 18, 2007 SonicSoaper

It'd be nice if they made these in different colors.

Mar 18, 2007 Surfaced

Are you alright, SonicSoaper?

Ordnanceflint, do you have a link to the auction you won?

Mar 18, 2007 SonicSoaper

Dude, I'm cool. They just need to the more of the different colored ones.

Mar 18, 2007 Surfaced

So you are talking about how a few of the colorways are really rare, right?

I don't quite understand what you are trying to say, sorry.

Mar 18, 2007 SonicSoaper

Yeah, sure.

Mar 18, 2007 ordnanceflint91

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140089700019 thats the link to the blue ordnance i won

Mar 18, 2007 matrix8967

nice. never seen those before. look kinda sea-foam/aqua to me. i like em.

---Alex

Mar 18, 2007 Slidey

They look sick! You know what grindplates they are dude? They look like uber-rare platinum (or silver) bbks, better look after them.

Mar 18, 2007 sam

Look at the first picture on the ebay auction, they are most likely the blue bbks. The other picture looks like the platinum bbks beacause the color is faded as what happened to my yellow bbks.

Mar 18, 2007 Surfaced

ahahaha that dumb bastard, no wonder I never saw that auction... he didn't include "shoes", "grinding", "soap", or "grind" in his title... you are pretty lucky then.

Mar 18, 2007 sam

Yeah, I hate when people do that.

Mar 24, 2007 rhinoskater30

there's some flint size 10's at

http://www.sonicandpals.com/soaps/index.htm

Mar 24, 2007 AnthoFlex

Yea, there are only fwe lfte

Mar 24, 2007 AnthoFlex

****there are only a few left

Mar 30, 2007 sam

These are definitely my favorite shoe.

Mar 30, 2007 pepsi

the white/white/red ones look nice

Apr 30, 2007 RamenRadio

Not my favorite shoe, but still a nice pair haha :)

May 2, 2007 doapysoapy

how do you buys these

May 2, 2007 kobansora

We gotta teach kids how to use the search function.

And get stickies.

~JJ

May 2, 2007 RamenRadio

doapysoapy, ask on the forum.

May 2, 2007 rhinoskater30

Dude, we buy these with a little something I like to call "money".

May 2, 2007 RamenRadio

ummm... that's not what he meant.....

You can't just walk into a Journey's and buy a pair of these... You have to like go on a hunt to find them. It's not very easy to get, I haven't even seen a pair on ebay in a while....

I thought you'd know that rhino......

Jul 5, 2007 Megashadow77

Gahd, I can't wait for my ords to get here.

Sep 4, 2007 RamenRadio

I love my Petrol Ordinances. Those are one of my favorite pairs of soap shoes.

Oct 6, 2007 AnthoFlex

The ordnance are a great shoe....when they are new

Over time, your plate will be touching the floor causing you to slip unexpectedly. This is because that cupsole construction has the plate level less recessed then other midsoles

Feb 26, 2008 Joshua3109

the black and red one is actually deadly

Mar 5, 2008 Revengasaur

I got my pair of these today, brand new off ebay. DEAR SWEET GOD these things are sick. The BBK's that they came with are about 5 times faster than my expresses were when they were new. The plastic they used is rock hard compared to the express plates. I feel like now I'm soaping for real and everything in the past was just training wheels.

Mar 5, 2008 AnthoFlex

cool, what kind did you snag?

Mar 6, 2008 Revengasaur

Petrols... I was skeptical at first, but they look truly awesome.

Mar 6, 2008 AnthoFlex

Petrols? were those the same ones i got....wtf

Mar 6, 2008 AnthoFlex

Dude, what size were they? And were they brand new?

Mar 6, 2008 Revengasaur

Size 11, and they we're out of the box, but basically new.

Mar 6, 2008 Revengasaur

There were a pair of size nine on there too. I assume those we're the ones you bought?

Mar 6, 2008 AnthoFlex

Yea

May 13, 2008 Spano565

Can't wait till i get these from Steve.I'm anxious to try out bbk's,slo bro's, and maxwells.Can anyone give a good in detail review of these?Thanks, - Joe

May 13, 2008 anaholaboys

you can't grind with maxwell's.
slo-bro's are pretty good with lock-in and tweaking but may become slow after awhile.
bbk's are good when you get grooves in them.

May 13, 2008 aughey456

Hey this is Spano my account isn't working right now so i'm using my friend's account.Yeah i know maxwell's can't grind that's why i want them so i can not get caught in school like i almost did today grinding this steep ass long handrail and benches in my school it was fun lol.And the slo- bros and bbk's should be awsome. - Joe

Jul 24, 2008 Spano565

I love my ord's and bbk's, but the bbk's need to be worn down a little more then they'll be so choice.

Oct 28, 2008 IceMan

I traded a pare of old shoes i had for some kids Soaps, i never new which one it was, But these are them, I miss my old Ordnance. they were the Petrol ones too.

Mar 2, 2009 Joshua3109

I finally got the red and black ones aha yessss

Apr 23, 2010 SpiderSoaper

I bought a pair of petrols on ebay for $50!

They have only been used once, little scratches on the plates, but other than that they look hella new, i'm stoked!

Apr 23, 2010 Brad

Radical.

Apr 23, 2010 SpiderSoaper

Thanx Brad.

heres what they look like

Apr 23, 2010 Brad

The listing is down, lmao. When I was getting my first pair of soaps, I had to choose between these and Sylons.

try this link, it's the sellers photobucket. just keep scrolling for more pics of the ords

Apr 23, 2010 Brad

Damn, that's pretty good for 50$

Apr 23, 2010 SpiderSoaper

Yea, cant wait to get em.

I have some new yellow bbk's unused. i could put them on these and take a pic and pretend theyre new.lol

Apr 23, 2010 Brad

Where's you get the plates?

Apr 23, 2010 SpiderSoaper

Steve Deel

Apr 23, 2010 Brad

You know if he's got any 12's? What's his email?

Apr 23, 2010 SpiderSoaper

i forgot the email. i'll get it later, but someone else posted it up. I dont know if he does have plates in that size

Apr 23, 2010 Brad

Ok, well when you find it post it so I can drop him a line.

Apr 24, 2010 Brad

Thanks.

Apr 26, 2010 Brad

Can someone verify that this is his email? I don't know if I'm just impatient or whatever, but he still hasn't responded :(

Apr 27, 2010 Kooksoaper13

I'm sure that's it, hes just really busy I guess, took him a couple days to reply to mine too

Apr 27, 2010 Brad

Haha, ok thx :P

Apr 30, 2010 SpiderSoaper

Got the petrols the other day. damn they are effin sexy. i feel ashamed to even grind them since they are pretty much new. haha. oh well i still have my scabs and the bbks in them already have grooves, so i'm to use to them at the moment.

May 1, 2010 Brad

Haha, I know what you mean. I'm scared to use my Flows because I don't wanna wear them down. Btw, I got a hold of that dude. I'm getting some slobros, but need to find 20$ ._.

May 2, 2010 SpiderSoaper

its not the plates i'm worried about it's the shoes themselves. plus i have plenty of plates

May 2, 2010 Brad

Really? It's the opposite for me, haha.

Are curbs/rusty surfaces okay with these guys or should i stick to smooth surfaces like rails? Any thoughts? Thanks!

Curbs are okay if they're painted. I hit them all the time in my Sylons. As for rusty surfaces, you'll have to wax the shit out of it. Unless it's that kind of rust that's spikey for some reason ( I have a rail literally a minute from my house that would be perfect, accept it's rusty like that -_-)

try painted curbs with bees wax(although you can use parafin, beeswax is better for curbs).

Try to stay away if it's rusty, rough ledges are the best if they aren't rocky or round (although they are great for putting grooves in your grind plates).

should i grab these if i could? for my last pair of soaps?

Dude for reak these are the worst pair of soap shoes you could buy. That includes the vectors too, the plates are so close to the rubber of the shoe that you could possibly skid on your grind plates when you land. Also your costantly hearing crunching of rocks on your grind plates and your screws. Annoying and youll strip the screws. Buyer beware

red asphalt really reminds me of my dead revolutions. R.I.P.

Heard the material here holds up as of now in that interview... Too bad about the plates being too close to the rubber. Still interested in these though.

Mar 4, 2015 grug250

yeah these hold up but about the plates from what ive herd they dont affect it that much

Mar 5, 2015 LIGERZERO7

Oh ok cool. My slo bros have been hitting the ground so it shouldn't bother me much.

Mar 5, 2015 LIGERZERO7

Taking a closer look at the sole and saw it was continued on at the middle... Is that why it doesn't get wrecked? Idk just taking a guess lol.

Mar 5, 2015 grug250

yeah i reckon youre right about the soul

Mar 5, 2015 grug250

same as the prabas

As much as he knew about soaps, Travis was an opinionated guy. Haha. The Ordnance are perfectly fine, and you won't have to worry about the plate skidding on the ground until the shoes are quite worn out. (I own the vectors he was complaining about in the above post. They're pretty damn beat, but they've still never done this skid out phenomenon on me...)

Mar 6, 2015 grug250

yeah true that

Mar 6, 2015 mcgrinder2011

Fuck, the entire homepage is filled with comments on here... HOW LONG WAS I AWAY?!!!

Mar 7, 2015 Waffle

A looking time!

Apr 7, 2015 Waffle

Long time! Damn.

Jan 6, 2016 LIGERZERO7

Ordnance one pair left as well?! Sigh...

Jan 12, 2016 LIGERZERO7

Nice they came with updated bbks!

Mar 10, 2019 LIGERZERO7

Looking at these recently if only the small sections were moved a bit more center they would be nice break bars, a bit too far back to use.

May 28, 2019 grug250

I want a pair of these so bad

Apr 1, 2020 megamac

Greg, you don’t have any Ordnance??

Dec 4, 2022 grug250

Na man I don't

Mar 27, 2023 gongon1037

I still have the grey pair, but they don't fit me anymore.

Aug 7, 2023 grug250
