I didn't think he was great on Mystery and I don't think he's great now. If AWS/Vans is enough to give you an indie rock street cred boner, by all means, enjoy your marketing.

Well, as pointed out, you are retarded, so thinks which sure sound like something to you often are not. Skate spots are not just an aesthetic choice, they are the obstacle the person is skating. Wow you are stupid.

Crockett is still meh if you aren't an AWS fanboy

You aint from around these parts are you?

or maybe you're just fucking stupid

Some of you have admitted it. It's the same stuff as when he was on Mystery, he just has the cool guy brand stamp of approval now

No, his style of skating matured, now please go drink a gallon of pee.

i definitely think the hipster makeover and him riding for a popular company have a lot to do with how ppl percieve him now.

mystery isnt a popular brand?

His style of skating has undeniably matured but that happens naturally for everyone or at least most. And I do agree, the way you dress and who you ride for adds to how people perceive you. In the end, it is all business.

Please put down the skateboard, and get the fuck out.

Yeah. Companies don't feature certain kinds of skating deliberately as part of an image or anything.

Nah. I think most of you are brand name hoes who only like skaters if they ride for the right company.

I'll have to go re-watch some Crockett footy and see if there's something I missed.

gilbert is sicker now but, it's just the same dude with different clothes & spots. he's always been rad. remember that dude that kickflip frontside nosegrinded the rincon hubba? same dude that did a back smith kickflip over on a flat bar? i'm not saying i wouldn't rather watch a switch flip up a 6 or any of his more recent footage, just saying that i've always liked him & i do agree the make-over won a lot of people's favor.

Based on the massive amount of dorky (though still gnarly) footage he puts out I think it's fair to say the dude doesn't take himself too seriously so maybe the term "make over" is a little misleading. Dude bought some new clothes, it's been a couple of years its not like every other pro is wearing exactly the same gear as they were in 2008, it's hardly a big deal. He has been skating better of late then he was on mystery/fallen I imagine its because he is spending more time in richmond or its better vibes in the alien/vans van or whatever I very much doubt its anything to do with his new little hat or whatever it is you're tripping out about.

He's pretty much always skated and looked exactly the same. He has just gotten more exposure lately. I think he was in the spotlight more while on Vans and Alien. Mystery and Fallen didn't seem to promote him as much.

I remember reading an interview a while back where Gilbert said Jamie didn't want him on the team because Jamie thought he skated like Gideon Choi.  His style kind of had to grow on me.  At first I thought he just looked like he was skating with a load in his pants, but after a while I began to really dig it (especially since no one else I have ever seen skates like that).  Ride The Sky would have just been another Zero video without him.  He has definitely gotten even better since that though.
