A "switch" 360 flip or something?
Shit, I forgot about that. Wasn't it a commercial for his TV show or something?

Not a conspiracy theorist by any stretch but here goes...first you start out w/fucked up "elimination contests" then start a rumor that, at the end, everyone says fuck this shit and bails in true hardcore skater fashion...hmmmmmm, sounds like a plausible way to keep folks tuning in.

@mandibleclaw, i found this youtube comment to be pretty funny. it went like "id much rather watch an HD skate video, you can't see shit with those blurry VX cams"

man none of these dudes have a personality, yes its about the skating butt fuck if your gonna have a show like this you need people who aren't going to put the viewers to sleep. Last One in a Million was so entertaining because of Forrest, but its only the first episode so i could be wrong. Also an elimination an episode? What a regular rule, slap ya fucked up!

they should have had a best trick contest on a cellar door instead. whoever has the hardest time skating it gets eliminated. they should have hired bobby puleo as tour guide/ judge.

bobby would have eliminated everyone for skating his spots. he would have declared himself winner, but at the same time not acknowledged the contest because it is now 'too mainstream.'

These are just skateboarders with socially awkward tendencies. No need to judge their personalities and merits like it's your Mom's soap operas. Sick skating, shitty fact on the high ollie contest. Cardiel for the win.
 
Skateboarding is easy, I've played Skate 3 dude!

I wonder if they will just stop coming out with episodes with no real ending.

^why do you say that?

The skating in this episode was so damn good. Slap is the worst online video producer, the production value has dropped off like crazy, it can't have just been whitely that made the difference. The fisheye hd was the worst I've ever seen. I felt like a pedophile peeking through some apartment peephole thing.just needed the heavy breathing/odd grunting to complete it.
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here

its funny comparing this oiam and the san francisco treat series. One is a huge breath of fresh air content wise, while the other chips away at what credibility slap has left.

O Whiteley, Whiteley, wherefore art thou Whiteley?

shit, just let mandible claw take over.

And $20 a day? Damn, that is pretty harsh. I have never been to NYC but I can imagine that if I had to push around SF all day and night with $20 a day and no access to a kitchen I would be eating pretty trife.

$1 dollar Slices, $1 dollar dumplings 25 50 75 cent snacks...

Theres actually alot of good cheap eats here you can stretch $20 pretty good
I cannot convey the hate clearly enough.
Walk that bag over to Bed Stuy so you can get your head bounced off the curb while your rolling purse gets set on fire.

I suppose it depends on how health conscious you are.

the dollar slice part was a joke, I meant there are better things to eat here that arn't that expensive.

Unless you only eat fair trade, organic, free range, tofu from farmers markets

No, I am not that bad! I am guessing I could survive off water and turkey sandwiches for $20 a day. I live right outside SF (Berkeley) and shit is expensive there. I can only suppose NYC is worse (and so I have heard).

Edit: And free range tofu. Ha! That was a good one I didn't catch right away.

day 4: barrel jumping competition.
Anybody else think Billy Rohan comes off super lame with his scripted comments?
This could make sense as like a save type thng if we have to get all reality show on it. Like, they go out and film, and then have a contest so if someboy wasn't ripping that day they can still try to stick around, like an immunity challenge on other reality shows...ok, after typing that  realize these elimination things are stupid no matter what.
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out
