Dude skated to some good songs too ,and was one of my favs , still is . Anybody know what he is up too ? last I heard he skated for TRUELOVE ?

this dude's a bitch.
-
Used to skate with him, Rachmond Chung, and some kid with dreads in Portland back in 93. He would always bitch, wine and toss his board a lot during the sesh. I remember one time he got all pissy cause we were both trying switch front tail slides at a ledge spot. It made me think "dude, it's one of my ONLY ledge tricks. You ride for Powell, relax." Also, I tried twice to mention to him that I used to skate with him here on SLAP, but he always ignored me. Other than that, he's an awesome dude.

In 2003 I was 15, visiting family in Portland and skating this little 3 set with my 10 year old cousin. Jayme came up with some filmer dude all dressed in orange and took over the spot. Like not giving us any room to skate it, swearing and flipping that he couldn't "land this fucking nollie varial!!" His board shot out and hit my cousin in the ankle, and when my cousin went to pass it to him, Jayme just ripped it from his hands. We left before he got his trick.

woah
a couple of years ago my friend Dennis and I were skating this gap to ledge in California
and Jayme showed up with like 2 other dudes and his filmer, we tried to say whats up to him but he just gave us this blank look
my friend Dennis wouldn't let Jayme use his unit tool so Jayme freaked out and he and his friends beat us up and raped our girlfriends

Jayme Fortune and his benches
this is pretty fucked up. a nollie 360 flip backtail in a line? fakie 360 flip nosegrind?!?! daaaaaamn
-
some mad appreciation in this thread...hahah
i appreciate his skating
i do not appreciate his bitchery
-
He's always been way ahead of the game in tech skating. One of the most underrated dudes ever. I didn't pick up on him seeming like an asshole when he was on here. Bitter, yes, but not an asshole.
-
jayme fortune is killa
-
wasnt he on the forum a few year back? dont remember the full story but i remember everyone not like him after a while...
was either him or corey sheppard....
-
HAHA he did start that confessions thread!
-
he wore an ISPY shirt back in the day, that alone gave him +100 points in my book ;)
-
how did he seem bitter?
he seemed cool on here to me when he was posting, he even pm'd me back when i told him i liked his skating ZOMGFANOUT
-
where is he from aagin?
-
rad dude, miss yolkin it up with him. never seen all of his parts consolidated into one post like that, just now realizing how much stuff he put out. yeesh
-
I grew up watching that globe video part of his. Some really crazy stuff in there.
-
I was always a fan of his skating, and he seemed like a genuinely nice guy from the stuff he posted on here.
-
He's "plastic bench nerd" if i remember correctly. i think he started a thread just to post that nech part hahahaha. tech tricks but shitty style
-
how did he seem bitter?
His very first post was whining about Raymond Molinar doing the same trick as him. Not the same trick at the same spot, just the same trick at a spot thousands of miles from where he did it. That dude is the fucking worst. And to those saying he was cool on here when he posted, it was 100% to get his ego stroked. If you saw him in person, he wouldn't give you the time of day.
Only thing I appreciate about him is the fact he stopped posting here.

I fucking love jayme fortune. I skated in the rain cause of him
-
that globe video opinion was the first skate dvd i ever fucking bought, mainly for the rodney mullen part because i was about 14 and loved him, really liked ryan kenreich and danny gonz parts too. those guys also just vanished off the face of skateboardings earth
