« Last post by Shtonk on Today at 10:30:18 PM »People mentioning Jamie Thomas as the one to contact, is it not more so Chris himself who would be the one to address/reply to what was said by Christine?
I really hope I'm wrong, but I've a bad feeling there won't be a response, and it will just be swept under the rug.
Cole (or whoever runs his social) is actively deleting negative comments. Have DM'ed him too but putting pressure on Jamie is valid because if you can't get a fucker to own up and repent, you can at least banish him from the industry. That being said crickets from Jamie as well. I told him people on here were calling his name.

USELESS WOODEN TOY BANTER / Re: Yuto of Olympics - Is he okay?
« Last post by Shtonk on Today at 10:25:14 PM »Far as I understood, SLS doesn't count anymore and Shanghai counted over three times as much as prior events in terms of quali points, which makes Yuto a distant 6th in the Japanese team with little to no hopes of making it into the top three.
On a competitive front I think Yuto is still Japan's best shot at gold because all the others buckle under finals pressure 90% of the time.
But on the Yuto front I can't believe he'll be as dismissive towards the Olympics as the oldheads in this forum. He must feel like he's letting down a lot of people right now and I'm worried how he'll deal with the shame. Would love to see him go full street skater but I just don't see it (yet) for him. It's kind of mad that everyone is progressing but we all know prime Yuto would still sleep the floor with the entire field.
While we're on the topic of competitors' mental health, Jagger doesn't look exactly stoked to be there, either.

« Last post by Southernmost on Today at 10:22:51 PM »Expand QuoteYou’ve got to think Jamie wanted him to clean up that f/s nose grind on the “one more try” rail. I’d love to hear that conversation.[close]
Gabbers strikes me as the guy who wouldn’t give a shit what Jamie says
“Permission to Baker Maker, Chief”
I agree. Gabbers seems like a take it or fuck of type guy. Jamie also seems to have become more self aware and accepting over the years. Not sure how militant or strict he is in this era. Judging from some of his recent interviews and comments he seems more chill.

Lol gonna send it to my mom cause she loves Dido. Dido and Sade was our driving music.
