Alex Olson vs. Leo Twitter/Insta beef? Real or beautiful fantasy?

there's no excuse to dress up like that unless you're English

Yeah, well Inspector gadget would have been fucked without Brain and Penny.

so you guys think alex is pretentious because he dressed up for an important event? Believe it or not skateboarding is his job.  If the company you worked for held the biggest event in its history and your portfolio was being presented in front of all your friends and colleagues, i'm pretty sure you'd want to dress up.  And besides that, even if that wasn't the situation, he can dress however the fuck he wants.

I want to see how everybody else dressed, then I'll judge. Was Mike Mo in a suit? It was his first part too and he had the opener. How about Marc Johnson? Three song ender part that won him SOTY, what was he in? How about Guy Mariano? This was his first part since mouse and was probably the most important one of his entire career. It just comes off as LA/NYC douchebaggy to me, unless that genuinely was what other riders were wearing.

This is some gossip corner Cosmo bullshit you all are running on. This is beyond technology giving us too much information on pros, it's the bulk of you imagining some farce of a personality that you'd choose to stick by in one these two guys.

You really will argue about anything. I want to ask, "Why do you even care?" but I appreciate that about you. You'll argue the important moral points of political jargon I can't even begin to wrap my head around, then jump to chiming in on the asinine determination behind a young man's--unarguably well-dressed, occasion omitted--attire to an event.


Nevertheless, he wasn't the most eye-catching person in attendance.

Oh my god....  Hahahahahahahahaha

[The Ghost of Lenny Kirk]

It was a fucking skateboard video not an "event" or an "evening".  Ah fuck it. Id rather pick Leo who's some goofy dickweed than Alex Olson who constantly reminds me of how skateboarding can be such a gay ass social club sometimes.

You're going to sit there and tell me that the Fully Flared video premiere wasn't an event? Yeah, it was for a skateboard video, but it was still an event. Go ahead and pick a side Perez, because it obviously isn't a hypocritical move to prefer a skateboarder based off of a "gay ass social club" networking site and not their skating.

[The Ghost of Lenny Kirk]

But thats how you guys decide if you like a skater usually so its a fair metric. Remember dill vs kalis? Great match. It went double digits. Also i like leos skating a lot. Dude isnt just about skating up rails. little known fact: He does in fact do tricks in lines. People may not like certain aspects of his push but i think the tricks are sick. At least hes not trying to look like anybody...

Also to be fair Im basing it on what hes put out skatemediawise. Epicly laterds, interviews, that sort of stuff. Usually the whole announcing-who-your-friends-are type answers. Also cosmo isnt accurate because that assumes were talking about real people, this is more like discussing the last episode of gossip girl.

[FrenchFuck]

L.A fucks you up , don't go there.

[few123456789]

You guys are clowns.  Who cares what some other guy was wearing?  You reading People Style or watching skating?  My wife laughed at this thread.

[escapistfool]

L.A fucks you up , don't go there.

That's why I can't wait to finish college and get the fuck out of here.

[sebastian]

hey alex olson, do something different, than not bringing out video parts for the past 5 years. i love leo

[RaptorKillah]

Hmmm... leo is a hipster...and ed templeton is into faggy art shit ...leo rides for toy machine ...maybe this was a bit of banter between friends?

They both look pretty good on skateboards.

This brostyle shit looks pretty stupid. Its just a good marketing idea. Tie your accesories brand to something that costs fuck all too make and is an essential part of skating and suddenly you are core and not neff.

Im down for people to dress how they want.. But fuck me
that pic makes me want to slap him across the face.

[BraveUlysses]

I'm backing Greco's choice of wearing lipstick. I feel like earlier that day he was debating whether or not to show up with lipstick on and then just said "fuck it".

[NickDagger]

I'll be honest with cha jabronis. I still can't tell what the deal is. I think maybe these guys just have a strange way of joking around with each other?

You be the judge:

[baconeggandcheese]

Thank god for social networking sites. I don't even remember what I read while drinking my morning coffee before pro skaters started calling each other fags online.

[ttching!]

I've often pondered what it is inside us that makes us, as skateboarders, different from everyone else, but its all too clear now. Our parents gave us two copies of the recessive 'looser' gene and we are in the 25% of that population where the gene's traits are fully expressed.

[Lenny the Fatface]

Alex does have a point by calling out Bro Grip, far too many skate companies doing nothing interesting beyond a logo.  Everything else about this thread is irrelevant.
