today's fake style

[skateordie]

when i was growing up, the fake style was "palms out" a la jeremy klein.  nowadays its the "turkey back" thing, a la wenning and pappalardo.  its kind of pathetic how many kids today try to run this shit.

you shut your mouth

I'd say about half of the people who skate in my area try to run the bent back knee steeze/ the "I need to absorb the impact of this 1-foot-tall ledge" when they ride away from everything. Needless to say, I'm pretty fucking sick of it.

[Gutterhead]

how would you be able to tell if someone's ripping em deliberately or not?
maybe you should unlock your eyes from kids' asses.
how about that?

totally agreed. Treflips done by that way are not so cool anymore. Leave them for Janoski

no the worst is when people rip off one back pocket to look extra cool

T-minus 10 till someone mentions Ronson.

[splicednuggets]

all you gotta do is look into furby's eyes after his nollie heel..oh wait he's beaming someone on the left.. you can't really do that

I'm going to bring back 90's steez when so many of us skated with 3/4 of our feet hanging off the board (in preparation for a flippity doo).

[floyd]

Yeah, but every trick deserves an uncomfortable and awkward pre-pop stance.

we called that the Tommy Guerrero fake style back in the 80s

check 1:02 power slide for the inspiration:

 Seems like 95% of these clones are faking it hard. I'm almost 25 now so I can't fake anything like these little jokers. I'm stuck with my style and I don't care or really think about it, unless i'm trying some new switch shit and my arms look like their casting wizard spells or something. Its sad to see all of these people having an identity crisis at the skatepark. Its like there dressing up and playing rambo after watching first blood, this time its a skate video and there pretending there the lead character. They either got the DGK shirt and some bogus new era hat or some plain jane shit to disguise all the gear mommy bought them. Honesty, I feel sorry for these Quazi Moto freaks and I still make fun of them on the regular directly to their faces because they deserve it.

I'm diggin the alex olson/silas soul-skater footstance.

[sk8nigga]

bring back the clenched fist steez early 90's era a la Richard Mulder, Jason Dill.   Damn that was some funny shit.  Might as well bring back the bowlegged steez too.

[deep]

[Joey]

i am noticing in my area that some of the kids land tricks and bend their knees inward.
