I don’t really get the hate for fahrenheit. It’s a nice 0 to 100 scale for everyday weather temperatures. But also every 10 degrees is different enough that you don’t even need to be precise when talking about it: “We’ll probably need the AC today, it’s going to be in the 80s”.

I’m an American that’s all for converting to metric but I would still use fahrenheit for weather since it’s just so easy and convenient.

He would have wanted to keep the trucks/wheels/bearings/etc (if you keep that stuff a new board alone would be cheaper than the fee) and it’s a lot quicker to snap the board than sit there taking it apart.
