my point is I have no idea why he is sponsored in this day and age (or any day and age really), nor do I get why he should get any appreciation round these parts. My other point is that Tobey should be on Palace.

If he was unsponsored the part would be the same, nor do I get why he should get any appreciation round these parts any? I still think he does some cool tricks, but I guess I find them cool cause relatable or w/e. I mean: the nollie shove out of flushing line was nice, no?   .

in other words, you are a terrible skateboarder and relate to other horrible skateboarders because when people get credit for skating shitty, it gives you hope that your line of "half cab up a curb to front board a ledge into a small parking ramp" is good, since that dipshit ACTUALLY FILMED THAT LINE and included it in a part

they didn't because it seems to be that sp and maybe the dude who edits the videos are the only people who can be bothered to produce shit like this. my friends and pretty much all sane skaters showcase their good tricks only and keep the rest to themselves. i know many unsponsored dudes who will not film sp-level stuff because its just not filmworthy.

Title: Re: Shawn Powers
Post by: Dwyck on May 17, 2017, 11:51:00 AM
yeah I guess I misspoke. not a career so much as like staying someone that people want to watch skate. i think that's not something SP really minds anymore, yknow, doing his art and whatever.

though a lot of the johnny wilson/cooper winterson guys juggle their passions and their skating. max palmer just did a show, ben k's cooking. i dunno

it'd be really rad if someone sent tobey boards though. man's got tricks, a web presence, blablabla
