thats all you - nieratko is hilarious
I'm not necessarily saying he's not, but - and I know this is crazy - when I pick up a skate mag I'm actually interested in reading some insightful shit about
skateboarding and not about how irreverent or ironic the writer can be.
None of the main writers for any of the main mags seem all that interested in skateboarding as far as I can tell. They're much more interested in writing about tour antics, asking totally inane questions to get a laugh, and talking about weed and chicks, etc.
I think this is because most skate industry writers are fat old fucks who don't actually skate anymore, but that could just be a coincidence I suppose...
