I was wondering what kind of socks are best for sk8boarding. low-cut socks or regular socks? Also, is it possible to still sk8 well without wearing socks?

** Has anyone tried the JT301 from Circa?? **

It has nothing to do at all with socks. I have skated in thick woolen winter socks, ankle socks and no socks, makes f*ck all difference.

Actually that's not true, if you skate in no socks your feet get sweaty, the insides of your shoes get slipery giving less support and you are more likely to roll an ankle.

I like longboarding in summer in low top shoes and no socks, it just has a summer vibe to it, but I prefer street skating in socks. What type of socks is pretty much irrelevant.

Where is a mod to move something?

I find that the best socks are low cut and thick. So you have padding to land on.
Or you can get long socks and fold them over your foot so you can get X-tra padding.
