Should have done a back three over the Thames, would have made the title somewhat relevant..

Amazing clips made completely uninteresting by some vanilla family friendly gluten free music/editing. All this needed was an "inspiring" voiceover while being played in a Zumies. That back 360 deserved way more shine too.

He did one really nice bigspin flip

The other tricks are gnarly as fuck but I too find him boring.  Well maybe just numb to so many hammers.

Fucking guy skates like 18 hours a day though, gotta love that!

They've been talking about that for like three years now...is there any actual confirmation that it's going to happen?

Heavy heavy shit.
Expected some carnage on London. Seemed like 100% SoCal spots?

Well Nyberg had seven minutes of footage they could've used, they seem to be taking their time

I enjoyed this, even though his parts are so overloaded with difficult flips down stairs that by the end you can't even process it anymore, so then the ender feels like it was chosen at random.

That being said I think his style is improving, some of those tricks looked amazing (esp the hardflip over the rail and the nollie flip down the big drop, as well as some of the ledge tricks). Here's to hoping for a bit more spirited editing in his next part.

I knew that skateboarding would always push the boundaries of what can be done by doing trick bigger, grinding longer and finding new ways to skate old spots. However, I did not foresee that there would be such an intense quest to find the worst possible song to put to skateboarding. Hats off to whomever picked that piece of shit song it's a serious contender.

It's probably the soundtrack to Chase's screwdriving days

As soon as I was able to mentally block out that terrible song, they through in a clip where he is not wearing a hat.  They're really testing me here.

I overheard a local at my park last night telling some kid that he'd "love to meet him someday". The cringe was fucking unreal.

I can understand not liking the dudes style or not being that into hucking and all that shit, but you can't deny that the shit he does is fucking unreal. Song was wack as fuck but the skating can not be fucked with.

All of that stuff was warmup or filler apart from the last three tricks

If that's his throwaway, his Etnies part ought to be a real mindfuck.

Predictions? Is the video being held up by Sheckler trying to actually bs flip El Toro?
Title: Re: Chris Joslin Ode to London Part
Post by: poowizard on October 23, 2017, 02:44:12 PM
yeeeeesh! That part made me want to get an MRI. I'd agree with the person that said his style seems to be getting a little better. I also agree with poor name and song choice, but whatever right? He's hucking.

That part was a lot of enders, but he didn't have an ender ender,

There's going to be an etnies video? They better hurry up, before they'll be complete irrelevant, no offense.

When he ollies into the ditch, and then 360 flips over the bar........ holy shit

The music wasn't perfect but who cares?  This is essentially a footage dump part.

Post by: Madam, I'm Adam on October 24, 2017, 09:26:29 AM
Love watching him skate. But he's celebrating his daughter's birthday by putting out a throwaway part? What a horrible dad, haha.

That part was a lot of enders, but he didn't have an ender ender,

And until he does, no one is going to take him seriously.

Is the video being held up by Sheckler trying to actually bs flip El Toro?

I'm not even a fan of his, but I'd like to see this. He's 27, he can still do it. 27, Jesus.

If he skated the same way but on New York spots, dressed like Cyrus Bennett, and rode for 917 and Nike would you give two shits about him?  I'm looking for a real answer, not some knee-jerk reaction. 

He's alright but i think about the things I mentioned above and not sure I really care about this dude.

Was waiting for el toro the whole part the first time I watched it. Left me disappointed. After watching it a second time without expecting an el toro banger, it made more of an impact to me. Still not comparable to his plan B part though.

someone please tell me that Joslin has some connection to London, lived there for a period of time. ANYTHING.

i'm not watching it, this is up there with stupidity and not the fun kind.
