Ah, please, Lenoce reached his prime at "The end" and had four tricks ever since. Nollie heel, switch heel, nollie backside ollie and maybe nollie 180 heels if lucky. Neither very impressive even by 2000 standards while people like Ronnie Creager are just getting better every year but still have crappy sponsors, probably not making half of Lenoces money meanwhile this guys just sits pretty. Horrible, unfair and depressing...
On the lighter note, Kyle Nicholson is so great, the perfect skater in these dark days of stupid tight pants, unnecessary loose trucks and gross slinky style with zero power, skating to M83. Habitat must have their fucking head examined, I would fight to death to get Kyle on my team and market the crap out of him. Maldonado kills it, I missed him, his "Just off the building" part is so solid from the song to style and just about everything else! And Tevin Taylor gets better everytime I see him, probably a great fella as well.
Kyle, slaying The Berrics:
KYLE NICHOLSON BANGIN! THE BERRICSFinally, Axion is gaining plus points in my opinion because it is impossible to a good cupsole these days. Thank God for éS and their beautiful Accels, THE best shoe EVER made but they are getting harder to find. Not all of us can skate in paper thin Eras/Old Schools, I need solid protection for my feet, all this talk about board feel is getting aout of hand. I tried my very best to like my Old Schools, to appreciate "The number one skateboarding shoe" with zero success. They are just not doing their job, like skating in a pair of socks with no stability, plus they will die in a two weeks. This is where Accel and many more é'S models in any material completely annihilates any Vans with stability, great durability and perfect board feel. I dont understand, people had no problems skating and praising Accels five years ago and all of a sudden nothing but ballet slippers is good enough.
Fine, I might be very partial, I LOVE éS, they are my favorite brand of all time. I just loved everything about them; small but elite team, always passionate to improve, new materials and technology, yet never relying on cheap tricks. Never locking themselves in corners with some dumd image or fall back on trends and fads or worse, play it safe. All in all, éS is timeless with great taste in just about everything everything they did. I hope they are just on a temporary break and will be back soon, (skate)God cannot allow a brand this beautiful to disapear!
Thank you for listening my friends!
