Me and my cousin were talking about Antwuan Dixon and about his comeback to skating since his release from prison, and as we all know he's going to have a Deathwish part, that reminded me of Guy Mariano's comeback with Fully Flared. So would Antwuan's comeback be as big as Mariano's?
-
Antwuan made a come back? Where have I been?

Didn't see this one on the "Thread Ideas That Don't Suck" thread.

We know this?

@BraveUlysses, not unless you lived under a rock, you would know about the Deathwish video
-
Haha damn cold blooded!
-
mariano came back
dixon its still on shit and probably will never leave them
-
Lol at this thread.
-
Im cheering on Dixon.
Too much hating on this dude. Who the fuck is perfect?
I hope that his comeback is even greater than that of Mariano's. Why not? Coming back from the vices of drugs gets nothing but respect from me.
-
im guessing dude will have like 8 tricks at most and 3 times as many doo doo doo's

That was a double negative. So basically if I lived under a rock I would know about the Deathwish video? Unless you confuse your imagination with reality you would know that a Antwuan part has not been confirmed. I hope you see a great deal of penises on Slap. Good day and enjoy that shitty rock you call a home.

Going strictly off of your username shouldn't you only care about dickson and slash? oh and I guess ellington and greco because they used to ride for zero.

I would love to see a come back from him too. But I do understand why so many people hate on him.

Antwuan still skates?
no one knows. there's just a new antwaun thread every week full of guesses & or hopes. his name is back on the team list though. i believe andrew & jim already said a while back that they weren't going to keep supporting him until he stopped wilding out. he must be doing something. it'd be a lot cooler if there was someone that actually knew antwaun on the forum & could confirm whether or not he has been skating at all.
also, those butt-cakes rule.

this. i dunno what kinda comeback would be bigger a new skate part or somehow looking like a normal person once again. none the less as a skateboarder and spiritual human being i hope he overcomes all his inner demons and continue to do good with his tremendous amount of raw talent. real talk a fully-committed antwuan dixon would probably end up being one of the best skateboarders in the world. dude was made for this shit.
-
comparing dixon to mariano seems just wild to me i feel like guy kinda dissapeared like vanished from skating while antwuans only been to jail and back and for him to make a come back as great as guy if you could even consider it a come back, well i doubt that . Lets be honest its guy fricken mariano!
-
its sad that he's probably been worth more to the bakerboys as a pile than a fully functioning skater

hey hate! - a friend of mine just walked past my laptop screen and recognized your picture/name from the decibel forums. he says HELLO

Guy Mariano redefined the word comeback no one will ever do what he did again, his story is that of legend
-
I don't know if I've said this before but can we just give up on him? He's never going to come back with a full part that'll live up to what he could have done.

As sad is that would be, I'm thinking you may be right.
He just seems like he's gonna take the 'Lennie Kirk' road....versus the Guy road. All of the pieces point to this conclusion

Comparing Guy to Dixon is stupid. Its 2 completely different circumstances. I would love to see Antwuan have a part regardless his Baker 3 and Baker has a Deathwish part were amazing.

It doesn't matter if you have it or not. If you have it and you are getting wasted 80% of your waking hours and skateboarding 20% you are doomed to fail as a professional skateboarder.
PRIORITIES. If you want to be a pile who rips the fuck out of a skateboard and doesn't care about putting in the effort to film and shoot photos then you do not deserve to get a pay check. Go get in the back of the line of 50,000 kids who fucking rip and don't get shit and think about how hard you blew it.

Yes, yes, yes! You robbed the words out off my mind. Mariano had beautiful style and tricks in Mouse, after his comeback he decided to drop both for some reason so his skating looks awkward style/trickwise. Plus i could not watch his Epicly Laterd because he is unable to build a sentence without "like" anymore. Such a shame.
We can forget about Dixon. Look at Greco, filmed insane stuff for Baker 2G. In a month or so. While peaking his smack addiction. Just shows that if you have an ounce of determination in your system, there are no limits for what you can do. Antwuan has had tons of time, opportunity and support, yet nada...
-
Mariano didn't get his stupidity tattooed on his face, neck and hands.
Probably helped in the turning his life around department.
-
you gotta remember why Guys comeback was so anticipated, he was universally loved by pretty much everyone, his parts in Video Days and Mouse were unreal and he helped change the way the whole world skated. No disrespect to antwuan, but two years in the spotlight leaves me thinking its more of a "what could have been?" feeling than hoping for a comeback. Dudes do their thing, make bad choices and live with it. Guy was lucky to have people like Calloway and Rick and Mike to give him a chance to get back in the game and he definitely didn't let anyone down. the pressure must be pretty nuts if you're thinking you have to live up to your hype before you left.
-
I can't believe someone made a goatse cake. Why in the fuck??? Hahaha
-
The person that started this topic is:
a) Mentally regular for even comparing Mariano to Dixon in the 1st place.
b) Just a kid that was introduced to skateboarding no more than 2 years ago, and still need to learn a bunch about skate history before opening his mouth.
X c) all above.
-
lol.
mariano's part 15 years ago SHITS on any dixon part, past present or future.
comeback? more like a go back... to jail...
say it aint so twuan. say it aint so. :-X

That Baker 2G part was fucking ridiculous. If Greco was piling out on heroin and did all that gnarly shit at Wilshire, then Antwuan could certainly quit drinking and smoking weed long enough to get some sort of footage.

What a bunch of goobers.
-
antwuans good, but i'd be surprised if he put out a part as good as guy's fully flared part. plus antwuan is pretty self destructive, even though its sad im guessing this will not be his last time in the joint

dixon or wenning?

Wenning is probably more insane than Antwuan.

I like the using the word "cunt" needed to be censored.
"We'll put the butthole on it, but asking for the word "cunt" is a little excessive!"
I want some cake now..
-
he's currently filming his whole part in the conjugal visit room at the prison
-
Wenning is probably more insane than Antwuan.
who is more likely to make a comeback? Antwuans problem was obviously drinking/drugs, what was wennings? he was able to handle the 7 day weekend program for years before falling off and was always delusional/insane, why did it stop working for him?

Got hooked on mayo.

Are you kidding with the guy hate? seriously? Dude always has and always will be the best. His style is rad, and you can see aspects of how he skated back in video days in his skating today. Same dude, still pushing boundaries, still sick, just needed a decade off.
And Grecs filmed baker2g and then straight up fell off until he got sober, remember Ellington's part in Baker2g? He was too fucked up at the time to film it.

Mariano skated with the style of a grown ass man as a child. Mariano's style as an adult, to me, is nothing special. Skill-wise, he's one of the best to ever do it and anyone who disagrees should donate their brain to science so we can study late onset mental retardation.

i think guy was just getting back into skating all the time for fully flared which is why the tricks are awesome but the style is off
guy's tricks in this years kotr were stylish and sick as fuck

REALLY DUDE??? THE SHIT IS ON A DIFRRENT LEVEL ALL TOGETHER. gUY MADE A STANCE FOR HIMSELF IN SKATEBOARDING THAT WAS ALWAYS PUSHING THE ENVELOPE...EVEN WHEN HE WAS ON THE PATH SHIT STILL MADE SENSE (THAT TOUR VIDEO WITH REYNOLDS...IS A GOOD EXAMPLE). DUDE'S ALWAYS MADE SKATEBOARDING LOOK FIRST NATURE.
tWUAN ON THE OTHER HAND HAS A AMAZING ABILITY TO MAKE BIG SHIT LOOK EASY AS HELL. I DONT THINK tWUAN CAN TOP THAT bAKER 3 PART. IT WAS ALL TIMING...!!!!!!!!!!! MAYBE THAT IS THE SIMILARITY IN THE TWO
BUT gUY FOR SURE IS THE BIGGER MAN...NO DISRESPECT TO tWUAN AT ALL... DUDE JUST IS JUST IN FOR THE LONG HALL NO DOUBT
!!!!!!!!tIMING!!!!!!!!!
-
They both had substance problems but there is one HUGE difference between their respective addictions:
Guy disappeared from the skate world. No coverage whatsoever and I'm pretty sure the Crailtap guys didn't even know where the fuck he was most of the time. He had a myth-like aura surrounding him during those junkie days.
Antwuan on the other hand has made a name for himself with his public antics. It doesn't help that he is acting like a fool in this tech generation where everyone has a digital camcorder on their phone that can capture any moment.

Yeah, I disagree with the first part of your statement, but can live with it as long as you acknowledge his undeniable natural talent.
I just think of Guy's style as Guy's style, and have always loved it. It's kind of imperfect, but so natural and smooth.

Hey! Nobody hates Guy, just saying than his style and trickselection does not appeal to me anymore. While Antwuan does not matter, there are enough good switch heelflipers nowdays anyway, no [krokodil*] tears there. Too bad about his regular heels though, not many people can do them that well.

Russian love them needles, and you cant inject codeine directly in your system. Plus the rush is what is wanted here because the drug only lasts an hour or so. Cold water extraction is great, if you want a long(er) lifespan. These guy are going 200 miles in the wrong lane, just cooking this garbage non-stop, day and night. According to doctors in other interviews, an average user will never surpass 2-3 years. If that...

I've done a lot of stupid, risky things to get high, but I couldn't imagine even the worst dope fiends I see in my city on a daily basis doing something like this. Junkies take all kinds of fucked up risks, but cooking and shooting caustic, impure freebase to the point where you're skin flakes off is a whole new level of stupid.

Lets be honest its guy fricken mariano!
[/quote
exactly. in all honestly i hope that dixon can get his stuff together and be a solid pro again, but guy mariano is the best example of a skaters skater. their is no question that mariano's comeback was something skateboarding needed. not to mention that before his crash he had already some of the greatest parts ever seen something dixon has never done once. and also the fact that the lakai part looked like him in all his video parts. it looked like video days but grown up with some of the technicalities of mouse. lakais mariano part was a historic event dixon is just another pro. but with that said i hope i swallow these words and he comes back with some crazy shit with his lazy ass arms.
