Just curious what pros u mistake for each other in y’all’s heads, and if it’s even common. Personally I am always mixing up the Pabich brothers and the Beres brothers, and until recently I mixed up Ronnie Sandoval and Pedro Delfino pretty regularly.

-Starting in about 2001 or whenever... any tight pants kid that skated rails.
-Most Foundation guys (any time period post Heath/ Olson)
-most current young pros. Admittedly, I just haven't been paying enough attention. They're all really good and dress similar

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Mcclung and he’s just collecting checks for 3 people

Just kidding those guys probably don’t get checks

One time at my local homie Chase was like "Danny Brady is the shit." Some dude replied "oh, Dane Brady? Yeah he rips." Chase said "Nah the UK one, Danny Brady" then everyone in earshot started yelling at Chase and calling him an idiot like "lool nah its Dane Brady dummy." Felt guilty abt that ever since.

At a fallen signing when I was 11 I mixed up tommy Sandoval and James brockman because they both had tattoos on their knuckles. I asked James to sign my fallen shoe thinking he was tommy and he stops and yells to everyone else, “this kid thinks I’m tommy!” Everyone laughed. I did not. He was second in the row of signing and I just left with my fallen shoe only signed by one dude who isn’t on fallen.

I (unfortunately) stopped skating and paying attention to the industry for a while during a good chunk of my 20s. Don’t fact check me on the timeline but I feel like I entered this hiatus vaguely knowing of a James Brockman on Zero and re-entered the skate world hearing of a Dane Burman on Zero and assumed they were the same person for a few years after that. I kept thinking damn this guy somehow got better as he got older.

Thought of another 2. For some reason I commonly confuse Harry lintel and zered basset, I have no clue why tho

Stance tho?
Also Casper = Nike, Mike = adidas but I do agree they have similar bodies and styles. Both couple of gods.

Also this is one of the funniest things I’ve read on SLAP in a long time and I definitely don’t know the difference between any of them.

A lot of Brazilian/Portuguese pros for some reason. The only ones I can reliably put a face to are Lemos, Bufoni, Luan and Vianna

Nick Merlino and Corey Glick though now that they're not both on foundation maybe it'll be easier to differentiate.
