I'd rather have a trick like that surprise me at the end of a part, rather than showing the attempts and then charging you for the make. I know what a smith grind looks like, I know what the Staples ledge looks like, so teasing it like they do just spoils the excitement of it. [close]I think that's where the excitement comes; knowing it's going to go down a certain day and anticipating it and not knowing wether he's even going to make it or maybe he'll just eat shit

Damn I left my bubbler at my parents house
^Hahah, that would actually be pretty awesome.Anyone got any insta-links to Kirby's attempts?
Good call on the "dance monkey dance" vibe. Will Kirby get paid for this? Is he obligated to go back and land it for ETN? Since this stuff is "only" available behind a paywall, is there a presumption that all tricks will be landed? If you paid to see a baseball game and they called it after 4 innings, you'd feel ripped off. Is this the equivalent?
So, is ETN paying for permits to skate these spots? Or do they just show up and hope they don't get kicked out?
damn so etn just pay skaters to do a potential career ending movethat's like some gladiator-esque stuff

As Dave Chappelle said, he's like Even Knievel. He gets paid for the attempt nobody said it would be good.
