[H8R part 4]

so percing both ears like a chick, getting stupid tattoos, and wearing bad jewelry is a prerequisite to get on plan b. 
 

[paulo from vicwest]

plan B used to be so sick, now its a bunch of jocks and wiggers.  I do like gallant though.

[MexicanSpaniard]

Why does that guy have the name of that park in China written on his board?

[tiger woods]

gallant, pj, wenning, duffy are the only ones i like.

[EastCoastLove]

I'll be stoked on new parts from PJ, Wenning, Gallant, and Duffy when the vid drops but I'm not too into the company, or at all really.

ohh and I definitely wanna see more stuff from Decenzo.

[buffalo hunter]

Plan B needs a good graphic designer and get rid of a couple of their skaters

[5inchDick]

i never liked them because i felt they "bought" their team.
the long and short of it is, they poached all the best guys from other companies by throwing money at them.

the old plan b was a real team, the new plan b is simply a bought team.

GIRL DID THE SAME... SO DID ELEMENT .. SHITS A JOB WHY WOULD YOU TURN DOWN A GOOD JOB OFFER.. YOU SOUND LIKE 1 OF THOSE PPL I DESCRIBED IN THE 1ST POST OF THIS THREAD

YOU SOUND LIKE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO JUST GOES AGAINST THE GRAIN FOR THE SAKE OF ARGUEING AND IT'S KINDA STARTING TO GET FUCKING ANNOYING.

[adultofthesuburbs]

As much as I hate Sheckler i know way bigger kooks than him.

Plan B needs to go out of business in the next year or two and forget it ever came back.

[EastCoastLove]

Its gunna be pretty entertaining to see how hard Sheckler is gunna be skating in the new vid just to prove a stupid point to the "haters."

Go ahead Ryan, impress me
you'll never change my opinion

HATER FOR LYFE FOOL!!!

scheckler has a fou-hawk for christ's sakes... jermey has a bar code on his neck to prove how much of a generic skateboarder he is, P-rod is a robot jock that has shitty style, decenzo has stiff legs and a bubble butt, you hear all this stuff about how PJ's "B" footy was released but where the fuck is his "A" footy that no one has scene sense the collisum video.  theres so much shit to talk on plan B,  i cant believe they're still in buisness... they dont know how to run a company at all. if it wasnt for scheckies tv show the company would of sunk faster than a lead boat.  who is a real skateboarder that would buy a PLAN B board?  the wood is garbage, and the graphic's are some easy 20 minuet photoshop alterations.

Because they're gay you dumbass bitch.

This. I can never really be down for teams who I don't really see as a "team"... I mean to me, a team of dudes are people who have fun skating together, making skateboard videos, and just enjoying life. When I see a team of random assorted dudes, who don't really seem like they'd ever be friends if it weren't for the same sponsor, the shit just feels awkward and fake to me.

[StokedTaco]

their boards cost 5-10 more dollars than most other decks at wholesale.
that's about all i can add that hasn't been mentioned.

[bothersome]

I see Plan B as being the ultimate mainstream marketed company.
Boring yet simple graphics that attract the typical 13-16 year old and a team packed with talent that is hard to deny.
Most of them skate contests and get a ton of publicity.
It isn't anything I care about but obviously a lot of people do.
To each there own.

that's complete bullshit, other than danny and colin none of the original team were friends before the company started and even after it did they didn't skate together a lot, except when coach ternasky was driving them around in his van refusing to let them out until they got their line.

wrong...and wrong.....

its not an opinion, its a fact.  p-rod hasnt changed how people look at skateboarding, or how people skate.   all hes done is made things looked like some 14 year old mastered SKATE on X-BOX.  how many stairs can you sky dive down, and how many rails can you back smith and back lip?  the dude has skills, but in all honesty hes never done anything great.  hes just perfected an already established method (made a better mouse trap).  if it was really plan B, it would be originals that are the shit at what they do, wait there is a company out there its called girl.

What does that have to do with being amazing at skateboarding? Paul is definitely better than your favorite skateboarder.

I disagree with all of you.  Plan B is a tight knit group of skateboarders.  Whether you guys like it or not.  Jereme, Sheckler and Paul actually do skate together.  Danny and Colin skate with the other three i just mentioned.  I'm sure the boston/NJ dudes skate together, not to mention that all the whole team is on DC.  You guys are so negative about everything that you look for things to pick at.  Almost every company has been a bunch of dudes who were offered a bunch of money to come over to a different team.  Like someone said earlier as stupid as sheckler and jereme may be there are people in this world a billion times kookier than them.   I've met and skated with Jereme and Sheckler and i personally have to say they arent that bad.  Sheckler was actually one of the nicer more involved pros ive met.  Bottom line is Plan B is sick whether you like it or not, and a bunch of 30 year old wannabes arent going to change the average persons point of view.

[ChildoftheGhetto]

How does paul not look good on a skateboard? all his tricks are popped and caught perfectly. He doesn't skate fast? This isn't fucking slalom. I'm talking about street skating.

[Epic]

right on childoftheghetto

[OldDirtyBastardChild]

the moment you hate on PJ for his skating your opinion on anything no longer matters. Because your obviously either blind, or just plain fucking regular. Anyways I support plan B as i always have. Sure the've recently made probably the worst 2 additions to a team ever. But seriously... Wenning, PJ, Gallant, Duffy, Paul, Mckay, Scott, I'll even include Way into this. Open your fuckin eyes and use your brain instead of trying to fuckin fit in and be cool. if someone offered me a shit load of money i would take it. call me a sellout if you want. but ill be fucked if i dont take it. skateboarding is a buisness. sure its fun, but once its your career and you need to live and survive with it, you take the money.

[BEAT KIDS]

I was just thinking, most of the Plan B team looks a lot like the jocks that used to call me a faggot in high school for wearing tight jeans and for riding a skateboard. Hmm.

[Watson]

Why does that guy have the name of that park in China written on his board?

Actually SMP in the context of Jereme Rogers stands for "Sober Mind Power", some super lame posse that J-Rog, P-Rod, and Terry Kennedy are pushing. They had a video interview on Thrasher awhile ago with Terry Kennedy. Some shit like it's all about not doing any substances and worshipping jesus, and yadda yadda yadda a bunch of bullshit. I mean if you want to be religious and not drink, whatever, not my cup of tea, but if you love it go for it. But if you start getting all preachy about it, just fuck off.

SMP and dudes with religious tattoos on their necks - yet another reason not to support any company that supports them.
