Rollerblades, huh?

(In europe "roller hockey" is called bandy. You should start calling it bandy too, because it sounds more gay, so it's more fitting. Hockey is awesome, bandy is the fuccboi version.)

I will try out a Welcome now, just because Tracer disapproves. "Tracer disapproves" should be their new slogan btw.

people who skate welcome boards realise that their lame ass attempts at being original
and trying to skate innovatively look stupid on a regular skateboard and instead
skate an irregular shaped board for their irregular shaped lifestyle

No its not ? 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floorball   also called Innebandy

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandy 

I mean you could say outdoor bandy , indooor bandy , ice bandy . But Bandy is the one I linked

Hockey is what you call this sport http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_hockey

and Ice hockey is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_hockey



Not sure a sport can be homosexual ? think you need to rethink how you use the word

Tracer is a bozo, but welcome is fucking lame. Shaped boards in general are. The kids who ride them are all the same. It's a fad.

 things:

You have given up skating street
You have given up skating switch
You basically gave up on skateboarding

Ain't nobody learning tricks on those fuck ass shapes, and the influx of kids riding them aren't good. Hipster rainbow graphics doesn't help their cause. Just get a normal board so you don't back yourself into a wall.
[/quote]

It would be too easy to retort with examples like Evan Okeson and that Mango dude. I'm sure any of us could adjust to a shaped board and not lose tricks but since I personally haven't ridden a shaped board since all boards were shaped, I'll just vicariously discredit everything you said through this dude because I like watching the clips anyway (surely there are many more examples):

Dylan Jones Skateboarding - Summer 2012.

Can switch 360 flip better than I ever could, even when I rode 8" decks:
Dylan Jones - 'Hand Drags & High 5's'

Dylan Jones - Summer 2013

July/August 2014 skateboarding #unemploymentpart

As most skaters know, it's what you make of it. Welcome isn't my favorite thing out there but someone else's skateboarding isn't anyone else's business. If they're stoked than good for them, they're probably getting more out of each session than trash talking little turds like you.

Did you watch the videos? There's ledges, manuals, flip tricks, rails, switch skating, big stairs, tranny, ditches; just about everything. The gap the dude backside flips at the end of the 2nd vid is hefty, that clip could fit into any pro/am part and not look like throwaway.

I don't remember all the exact tricks in the linked videos, but it's hard to argue that kickflips and switch ollies over double sets isn't "steezy." It's goofy comparing gimmicky longboard tricks with people out ripping up the streets on a normal length skateboard. So what if a person's deck is not a popsicle shape? I don't see how that takes away from the skating.

Yeah, some of the kids who bite the while Welcome image might seem like try-hards, but are they really any different than the masses of Gilbert Crokett clones, with their form-fitting long sleeve button ups and pants rolled up 3" above their low top vans?  Seems like the only difference is that one group choose a style that more people find palatable.

At the end of the day, this whole conversation goes against everything that's rad about skateboarding. Skaters aren't confined to any set of rules and we don't all "crave" the same shit so if someone is riding any shape board, having fun and shredding on their own terms, then it's beyond lame for another skater to hate on what they're doing. That mentality is no different than the high school jocks who'd call us "faggot" for wearing SkateRags and Vans instead of polo shirts and Nikes, and because we spent our own free time riding a skateboard in lieu of basketball or wrestling.

You don't have to buy into it yourself or even like it, but just go about your own business and if they're not hurting anyone the let them have fun in their way. Being bothered by such superficial rubbish is just a shitty way to be.

if you skate pools its a different story, as you're almost never riding switch or popping the nose. however I don't think skaters deserve extra credit for doing street tricks on wacky welcome shapes

You still haven't watched those videos huh?

Anyway, you're right that nobody deserves recognition for riding shaped decks, did anyone say otherwise? That's not what you started out saying though. I simply think that people don't deserve being called "gay" or otherwise talked shit on because of it. You've expressed an alternate point of view and seem to feed off of negativity so we can just agree to disagree, with the conclusion that you're just a little insecure cock.

Welcome is a "cool new company" that is still semi underground. The exact formula that hipsters crave. They just saw potential in selling to that whole crowd and it looks like it's working.

And they seem to have made a small amount of controversy with something as simple as shaped boards. Some strongly dislike it but with that comes other people taking notice. They are riding that wave and doing well. Kudos to them.

Personally I like them.

Rollerblades, huh?

(In europe "roller hockey" is called bandy. You should start calling it bandy too, because it sounds more gay, so it's more fitting. Hockey is awesome, bandy is the fuccboi version.)

Aren't you referring to Floorball?

Could never put on the blades....strictly ball....better exercise....
