Until he stops living the Cos-Play life and refrains from doing stinking tricks in full Kalis kit, this guy will forever be embarrassing to me. To himself too (I promise he's really going to regret these years as an adult). And to skateboarding in general maybe as well.

Dressing exactly like your heroes and doing the same stunts they used to, used to be something people would get savagely called out on. If these kids are so obsessed with the 90s and early 2000s they should try living the skateboard life then, and getting hated on by absolutely everyone, especially within their own communities. It's only fair you get subjected to EMB/Southbank/Love Park levels of shit-talking if you're gonna live your life in the past like this.

Fuck this current openminded-accecept-everyone-anything-goes era of skateboarding!

(A joke, obviously.)

 Develop your own tastes little man, that's the reason you love Kalis so much in the first place.

And yes, I know I've said this before, but I might just keep saying it.

Yeah, because clothes had alot to do with hate at those plazas.

Also, if he looks up to khakis,  he should def. Dress like Tony hawk

Barring the outfits I don’t think there would be as much hype on this dude. I said it before though, him and his boys finessed subjectively bad style choices into sponsors and pay checks so fuck it. He just has that old 90s trick selection that’s kind of boring. Like a switch crook on a barrier isn’t particularly impressive or stylish. Thoroughly east coast and getting shine though and I can get down with that.
