In his defense,  he did make this.
This isn't the 90's anymore. ESPN, Nike and Mountain Dew are Big Brother, Es and beer. Time to slip into some comfy New Balances and head towards old age.

I feel like Vallely is trying to take the "Retro is cool guys!" thing a bit far with the Elephant boards. It all feels too "Fuck progression in skateboarding! Let's all shred this inground pool and bomb hills! Woooo old school!" Maybe it's just me though...

The 2nd interview with GAY was really good. Seemed to cover most aspects of Valley in real depth...

The first one was obviously fake. Trying to make Mike look like a cunt,

For sure the 1st interview isn`t a fake. PM me and I send you the original question and answer sheet.

The second interview was by far the best I have ever read. Little hint- Well, that?s the man in his own words! He was more comfy in the way he was approached;-)

It's not really on Mike V. The interviewer is functionally illiterate.

Thanks fellas. To be honest, I was just having a really slow day at work and I have literally watched this dude bitch, moan, whine, fight, cry, etc. for almost as long as I've been skating. I'm just so over him...so this was cathartic for me. I'm passive aggressive as fuck so I feel like I really let him have it.

Well, if anyone can give it to a guy hard, it's you.

Well Mike V being Mike V aside, I can't really blame him for giving braindead answers to braindead questions.

yeah, i wonder why he wasn't feeling. email interview, shitty questions and all just for an unknown blog. guys definitely been kookin it but i feel like his new venture is heading in the right direction.

Oh damn, he would kick my ass so quickly. I can't fight for shit. If I was a drag queen, though? He'd be toast...those dudes can fuckin' fight.

Still...it would be fun to watch.

top of the list of skaters everyone loves to hate, at least he shreds/ doesnt ride for element anymore,, Jake phelps gives off the same arrogant asshole persona but eh what ever epically later'd would be an interesting on either for the history.

Gay just killed it. The worst part is that basically everything is true from what I can remember. You would think that if a guy has so many side projects and appeared in a few THPS games that he would lighten up, but apparently all of that "success" as us commoners would call it, just wasnt enough.

I am hyped on Jason Adams tho. Six Gun needs to go back to the Label.

Along the way I met some pretty gnarly bros. Here's me with this guy who was pretty gnarly:



Awkwardly placed star tat? CHECK! Middle finger extended? CHECK! Festival arm band? CHECK! Questionable motherfuckin' sunglasses? MOTHERFUCKIN' CHECK! This dude enwrappens the spirit of the Mike V. We still keep in touch on facebook and he is gnarly as he looks.
Tears.
Thanks GAY

No fucking shit!

I'm pretty sure Mike V could give such a shitty interview.

Do you guys read a post?

Do you think claiming GAY's interview was "in real depth" might have been a clue?

I mean, the Kid, Berard and boards unfit for nollie tricks? fuck, I'm in.

anyways Vallely has flaws obviously but I really respect him for the fact he's still skatin hard at 42... inspiring for old fucks everywhere.

I gotta agree with you here.  Not always liked what he's done in the past, but he is who he is.  He doesn't want to think of it as a business and if you're down, you're down.  I don't think he gives a fuck about the rest think.  He just wants to do his own thing.  It's obvious though that this guy does have a fan base if you ever checked the Elephant sites blog and see how many dudes buy his decks.  Now with the Kid and Berard even more so.  Leads me to think this one might stick around.

Your response is a nice counterbalance to my mindless snark. Seriously, I'm glad that not everyone is sad, jaded and a jealous cad like I am. ;)
