PHOTOS/VIDEO / Re: Toy Machine - Real Life Sucks
« Last post by mfweeno on Today at 03:37:20 PM »It's been a while since I enjoyed a Toy Machine video. Skating was more creative than I expected without being gimmicky. Braden obviously deserved last part - that kickflip gap to crook on the double set was fucking perfect.

I remember when this ad first came out and being blown away at how much money they must have spent on it... all for 32k views.[close]
Biebel transformation is wild[close]
It is absolutely crazy. And this is my only related moment to admit that I had a very slow day in work today and read all 49 pages of the Fuck Biebel thread. Before and during lunch. There are some fucking hilarious photos in there. Like the one where he’s hanging Stefan over a pier. Someone said he looks like he smothers himself in Merlot before tanning and I goddam choked on my cig.
Also that vid advert was cool - but would have been much cooler had they actually done the bullet time focus on the actual shoes mid- trick and not some weird low rendering of the shoe. Surely there was a way to impose an actual scanned image of the shoe in.[close]
Crazy how big the outrage was about that Beibel assault video in 2020 but only 2 weeks ago Jeron was on the bunt downplaying it saying beibel was a victim of circumstance and only laughed at the homeless guy, or whatever bullshit he said. Idk if the bunt guys somehow don’t know what happened or just didn’t want to press Jeron during his interview but that shit was so wack.[close]
Imagine you have the opportunity to interview a legit legend of the game that you love, and a touchy subject comes up that you don't really know how to handle, and a subject where neither party is really involved in... you're not going to press someone about their response or viewpoint. you're not going to call someone out like Jeron - "WELL WHAT THE FUCK MAN HOW CAN YOU STICK UP FOR HIM THIS HAPPENED???" Jeron has had a personal relationship with the man for 20 years. them "calling him out" or "pressing him" is completely unrealistic and not the role that either of them play. the approach that Dono and Cepah took during the interview is called is called being a professional.
its far too easy to say something like, "they should have said this," or, "how could they not call him out on that," but come on man, they're lucky enough to even be talking to this person in the first place.[close]
I was saying what Jeron said was wack. They could have corrected him but that would have derailed the whole show and as far as I know they’re actually pretty big beibel fans even to this day[close]
Who cares what he said about it?
Everybody knows what happened.[close]
I’d argue the majority of people don’t know about that[close]
Didn’t his friend throw a bottle at a homeless dude on the streets who was naked and air humping towards kids, or is that not the Biebel story?
I believe that is the story. I live in the area and that’s a common ass occurrence. But I also don’t attack the crazy homeless people and film it for instagram . I think he was already on the way out and crail having so many riders with issues the last few years they just jumped ahead of it and called it a day.

Shoes & Gear / Re: New Balance # containment thread
« Last post by DERBY on Today at 03:11:19 PM »If it makes you feel any better, I'm skating the 480 highs right now and I really like them. I actually had the opposite experience with rolling my ankle too, I had one mild roll while skating my 1010s but nothing like that with the 480 highs. I'd imagine the lows have way more of a roll factor?Expand Quoteaw fuck. got some 480 highs coming in and now starting to hear about some bad experiences:([close]
sick! thanks for the looks! youre right it’s probably with the lows. what’s the boardfeel like on em?

« Last post by CarcassToss on Today at 03:05:48 PM »I might not have tried Krux then, is there another brand that has white cups? I distinctly remember ordering a ton of different brands from SoCal Skateshop I think and the white ones fit and felt the best, but it was splitting hairs. I thought Riptides felt mushy and the truck lost any snap it had and they actually blew out faster than stock. It's been several years since I have only had 1 pair of stage 11 (post China switch) and before that it had been many years of gaslighting myself about Aces
