BEEF.

Wenning comes across as quite the one-upper...

I know who I'd rather spend 10 minutes with.

[pube tube]

Damn, Wenning seems really bummed on the way things went down with him and Poppalardo.

Part 3

I dont think Pappalardo has a funny bone in his body.  Strange that Wenning seems to always have hint of a grin.  They are like the north south magnets, opposites attract.

[yeahisaidit]

these videos are crack. i get worried they are the last one them im all psyched when it says  . . continued in part . . .

i find it amusing that pops says: i hope you would change (how you skate), and it's a bw vs pops episode again, as if to say, wenning still skates the same five tricks.

that's probably how it went down . . . pops seems like he just didnt want a part in this rivalry. ty says it all, he can be as tech as he wants if he wants . . . but he's just making his own way

[EastCoastLove]

a wenning/poppalardo sesh better go down before this episode is over!

[ChildoftheGhetto]

This makes me like wenning so much more. Pappalardo is just a hater. Wenning keeps it real. It actually seems like wenning would still like to be friends with pops, but pops is just too jealous and bitter.

[sal23]

best episode yet..
wenning seems super bitter though?
I mean we all have friends who used to be our bros
but after time you kinda grow apart and get sick of each other

[A Rolled Ankle]

pappalardo was my favorite then and he's my favorite now. it's too bad people think skating is about being the "best".

a wenning/poppalardo sesh better go down before this episode is over!

seriously, what if this happens? no homo.

EDIT: He did that line at Flushing twice. and never ollied Love. jesus.

[3rd Person Jimmy]

Basically.

Pops cousin is a super cute cop that works here in LA, I guess she got called for a noise complaint to my friends place and saw that there was skateboards everywhere and brought up that her cousin was Poppalardo.  Shit was pretty damn random.

[RRRRRAD]

the bible for east coast skateboarding

[BabyKillaSeason]

wenning seems like he's talking shit on pops and his skating in episode 3.  i find it annoying that wenning hasn't changed as a skater at all, and cute that pj ladd has replaced pops in his life.

[Matze]

wenning seems like a dick. but what do i say, bring the hate back to skateboarding!

yeah he seems mighty sour about something. still doesn't take the shine off pop's being a good skater.

[frank gerwer's nose]

I'm pretty surprised that Popps has gotten a third episode, I thought it'd be done after the first one. They've been good shit though, and I can't wait to watch this one when I get home.

[teh canadian suit]

Can anybody embed it somewhere, I'm at work and the entire Vice site is blocked...

Jealous of what? Wenning has been better than pops forever. Rob even said Wenning was better. Pappalardo has never had anything for wenning to be jealous of.

[COMMUNITYPACK]

It's so rad to see outtakes from Photosynthesis, and I guess a bit of Mosaic. I want more though...

I'm hoping there's a whole episode on Mosaic, and then the switch from Alien to Chocolate (that's a pretty big deal really) and maybe even a final one on Lakai/Converse. It'd be good to see even more unused footage too. Especially more recent stuff.

Wenning's just bummed that despite the fact Pops has simplified his skateboarding he probably sells more boards, and is definitely getting a decent paycheck with Converse. Wenning was fucking amazing. But while everyone is moaning about Pops having a lackluster Lakai part (which is retarded in itself) where's any new Wenning stuff? Or at least any progression?

I'm so surprised we're getting a minimum of 4 Pops episodes. Who'd have thought it...

[Jura]

Totally not feeling Wenning lately. He should probably think before he speaks sometimes...

That said, I know EXACTLY what Pops is saying. I had plenty of "skateboard" friends when i was 14-15 years old and nowadays I couldnt even imagine hanging with them. We were all just SO different. But when there is only like 5-15 kids that skate in the towns nearby, you make due and latch onto each with the bridge that is skateboarding.

Of course we'd be friendly now, but they just wouldnt be people id want to hang with everyday again.

[wesconian]

damn. so good. love both those dudes

Wenning sure is looking like a douche in these.  Even seem like pluhowski took a stab at him.


Im psyched theres another one on the way.

[drunk guy]

rob p kind of reminds me of ray romano, and that makes me like him more.......

This has happened to me a few times over the years, too. You start to skate with someone every day for some reason, maybe your schedules are the same, you dig the same spots, you just click. Then you just drift apart at some point, nothing dramatic happens but you just realize that at the end of the day the only thing you had in common was skating. And there's nothing wrong with that, it just happens, that's life. I see one of those dudes around sometimes and we say what's up but we have nothing in common except that we shared some good times skating ten or 15 years ago.

I love these episodes, so good on many levels.

[Bobby Peru]

Did something beyond just drifting apart happen between them? It all seems really tense, particularly Wenning.

wenning just seems bitter in general. definitely getting no sympathy in these episodes. on another note, anyone know what happened to pat corcoran? i saw a little footage of him in there just hanging out at bill's house, always wondered what was up with him.
