What's with the Ride Channel...
no more Weekend Buzz? No more Free Lunches?
Fully Torqued ending, Skateline gone to Thrasher.
What's happening?
-
haven't noticed any of that, but i've noticed its become more about skate lifestyle than actually skating shows
-
yup. nothing much coming out of there lately. they've had some of the best content this past year.

Maybe they are pulling a Tyler Bledsoe and they'll comeback with the same features and a FULL INTERVIEW WITH GINO, online parts from Heath, Pat Chanitta and Free Lunches with people that really care about their profession and love that is skateboarding...

Where the hell have I seen that picture before?
-
They need to stop with the slo-mo section as well, can anyone actually sit through one of those ?? i end up fast forwarding to the end to see the trick at full speed.
-
AYO BRINK U LIKE JAKE JOHNSON ON SOME SLAP PALS SHIT RIGHT NOW, WE WANT THE BUZZ
-
It's all about money. Web content has become serious business, make no mistake - you publish your content where you'll be paid the most. I'm not sure where the RIDE Channel income comes from, but if it is purely from Youtube ads, then (for example) Thrasher can offer more (direct dealing with advertisers).

weekday borachos
could be a show about my family
-
i am glad they still do funny little lighthearted edits of the worstgraphic injuries i can imagine

What?
-
I like Ride Channel a lot. Didn't think much of it at first but became a nice competitor to even The Berrics. Too bad for letting certain shows go. I feel like those were more organic over then what they do at the Berrics. Just off the cuff interview styles anyways.
Thrasher still holds it down as the best thing on the web as far as skate videos go. Last year was awesome.
-
The ride channel was the reason I check the internet besides slap and the sex offender registry to see if my pic is up yet
-
I really digged the Weekend Buzz, some of the episodes were quite EPIC (Forrest Gump the person, the Capaldi bros, Jerry Hsu & Loui B...)
Free Lunch too, the MJ episode was simply awesome, great stories.
But you're right, if the only RC income is Youtube, it's probably not paying much. But hey, birdman should have enough $$ to pay those dudes.
-
weekday borachos
could be a show about my family
Sorry to hear that bud need to talk to someone? Families dealing Alcoholism is never fun.
-
I hope Free Lunch resurfaces elsewhere.
-
who cares
-
I like weekend buzz, SKATE, and free lunch, but everything else is your typical internet garbage (park footage, trick tips ,etc)
-
A new intro to Free Lunch would b rad

doesn't the birdman own ride channel?
I still remember stumbling upon 'free lunch' when it was on the 'shred or die' website.
-
its because brink shaved his balls again.
-

-
Yes, Birdman owns Ride Channel. He should pump some more $$ into it.
Because as someone said before... park footage is boring!!
-
True, the Almost segment's been good. Fully Torqued too.
I've seen a Free Lunch a couple weeks ago, maybe this one's not cancelled after all.
I don't see why Thrasher couldn't come up with similar shows (Free Lunch or Weekend Buzz).
I've read that Brink's got his own show, but no idea when it comes out and where.
It's not going to be Weekend Buzz though, more like regular interviews.
Less beer less fun? I mean, Forrest Gump's WB was a killer
-
the ride channel is shit to me without free lunch and weekend buzz.
-
I heard Brink works for element now, and weekend buzz is cancelled.... brink care to fill us in?
-
ride channel just needed more day in the lifes of spencer nuzzi. fuck interesting tour stories from cool pros
-
They also stopped with the in focus videos a while back. Which is a bummer because they were really helpful.

In Focus is/was great. Seems like they covered all of the mayor aspects already and need to take time off to figure out what can they talk about next.

so true, it was a pure gem for aspiring photographers/filmers. save the videos before they're gone!

I'm gonna miss it.

Hey, Brink sent me the link to this. I figured I may as well respond as life is too short to not get cyber bullied.
I'll try to hit up the shows mentioned.
Free Lunch: We are still doing that show but have cut back a little. But we just released two parts with David Gravette and the next episode on 2/26 will be with Nuge, then Lizard. Good shit.
Fully Torqued: When Clint came up with the idea, he put it out on Kickstarter with the idea to raise a chunk of money to pay for the travel expenses. RIDE gave him a good chunk and they agreed that they would give us 8 episodes. We loved that show...super raw and funny. If I could get Clint to get us more episodes I would. We certainly didn't cancel anything. Tell him you want more.
In Focus: Trust me. I loved that show. I would have that show go on forever if possible. Unfortunately Manzoori who made those shows is a very busy guy and it became more then he could deal with. It wasn't about money, it wasn't about views although some great episodes really didn't get many views. It was about him not having the time. Will it come back? I hope so. We will have to find another amazing filmer/editor who actually has the time and connections to do it as good as it was.
Buzz: After nearly 100 episodes and 175 or so guests, we all needed a break. It's not easy getting fresh faces to drive down to San Diego to do the show let alone find a sober driver for the drive back. I'm looking for a more central location and hope to bring it back in spring.
I'd tell ya more of what's coming up but I don't want to sound like a spammer. I just thought you guys may want to know what's really going on. I'm sure Brink will chime in when we have a bit more Buzz news.
-
I live in L.A. and am sober... I'll happily be the Buzz guests driver. All I ask is one 8.5'' deck each way.

OH, he said "deck".
-
Raw, thanks alot for all the answers.
Let's just hope these shows will come back eventually :)
-
wait, is RawhIDE tony hawk? cause he does own ride channel
fuckin A' tony, welcome to the boards!
-
on the topic, lemme pitch my 411 idea yet again:
a similar set up to RIDE or The Berrics, but all your favorite features from 411 back in the day. Certain things would obviously be gone, like the intro with amazing tricks since everyone wants to save their footage, but a Day in the Life or whatever the hell all the other ones would be rad. Just release a couple clips a week. With the amount of pro skaters now I think they'd be able to run it for years. Might not be the same without that song though....
I did hear a year or two ago that the guy won a huge settlement or something and was bringing it back, but that was the last I heard.
On topic: I miss the Weekend Buzz...

It was too nice of a post to be RAWBERTSON or whatever the fuck it was, but I was thinking maybe Brink is under contract with Element now and can't come on here and talk shit. If thats the case, bummer, he was great to have around. I'd take the check over SLAP too though haha.

That was refreshing, thank you for taking the time to spell it out.
I love ride channel, some of the segments are really, really great. I hope it's profitable and Tony'll keep the lights on over there.

Regarding Brink, he will always be lurking around. I'm sure he'll be back to shit talking soon enough.

Yeah the lights will stay on over here. There may be a few days in a row that don't have anything you are into but we are slowly getting back a lot of our RIDE shows and we have a lot of good stuff from Baker, SJ, Stereo, Almost, Blind and many others.
-
learn to quote right you dork

Please keep skate going. I would watch skate Gary Indiana if you posted it.
-
I figured I may as well respond as life is too short to not get cyber bullied.
Ah, we aren't that bad. The real bullies are on YouTube.
Thanks for the info. Good shit. Will definitely miss new episodes of WB for however long that is. That and Free Lunch are probably the only two shows in which I've seen every episode.
Stick around.
(To pencil, rawhIDE isn't Tony.)
Cheers Rob! Glad you're busy man.
-
they were great shows. glad it's from needing to take a break and not from catching flack for outting chase gabor as a pedo sodomizer.
BTW, is there any chance that some of the shredOrDie shows will make a comeback on the ride channel?

Now that Skateboarder Mag is sadly defunct, could you be the outlet for uploading all of the 411vm issues (not chopped up in parts, but as whole videos)?

without buzz there would have never been a screwdriver story for us

Found a bunch of full lengths of the earlier 411s on this channel. Some of the quality is questionable but at least they listed the times of each section so you can skip around the vid.

Thank you.
Which beard are you referring to? I guess I never thought of it as a beard, it's really just a week to 10 days of laziness. Then I hit it with the clippers, but not the same clippers I shave my balls with.
Thank you again. You are too kind.
Yeah right, like anybody has seperate clippers just for their balls.

The man has a valid point which you owe it to us to address. Post both trimmers, or you will forever be know as the guy who's face is too good for his balls.

You actually use clippers on your nuts? I'd be too afraid it would snag my sack and rip it off i just trim em.

A.) I just always use someone elses razor to trim my pubes
B.) Using a razor fucking sucks, gotta trim that shit first to get it down to a managable size

Or his balls were too good for his face? For shame Brink. I like the turn this thread has taken.
-
Brink, that almost sound homophobic. You let another man kiss you. Surely you don't feel "above" sharing clippers with your "buddies".

What can I say ... #diamondlife. I splurged and got 2 $25 clippers from target.

If that fucking meme was made just because of this thread about me shaving my balls, well then, I'm flattered.
It's not a matter of sharing. The problem really lies in the fact that if the clipper gets too close to the taint, I don't want any chance of poo particles on the same clippers that I used for my face. I mean really ... it's worth the extra spend.
And so are wet wipes for your ass when you shit.
whomever created it unknowingly did so for this thread.
that's why you have to manscape before showering! can't be walking around with a dingleberry mustache.
i'm hesitant to try wet wipes. i used a bidet once and felt violated.
-
And a perfectly good conversation about an internet show that interviews skateboarders while they drink spirals out of control into a free for all concerning Rob Brink and his ball shaving habits, dingleberries, and the use of wet wipes...Goodbye.
-
This is an amazing thread, I'm handing out gnars like oprah.
Personally, I trim the bush and balls with some clippers, and brush up the base of the shaft with a razor when shit starts getting out of hand. I use the same clippers for my head/face/pubes because I know that if I had separate ones I would mix them up at some point anyway so it's not even worth the effort. Face first, then bush because even though I shower right after anyway it would be a bummer if the water broke and I had to walk smelling balls on my beard all day.

the ride channel was really great for a bit
but they have been blowing it for months now.
they had a really great mix of stuff that kids would like, and older heads. it seems like they've dumbed it down in the last few months to mostly kid stuff (although i think the Almost things have been more entertaining than I'd like to admit without parenthesis)
They put out the bulk of their content and can't dig out. It was more of a time capsule thing to experiment and also offset the unenhancement. The core can enhance itself

Has the Nordberg Ep been filmed yet? Other guest?

Brink, if it weren't for your show, I wouldn't know what a Ballcuzzi was. Now I know, Thank you.

Rob, thank you for the adaptive link. I was at Tampa the first time OG showed up, and I can easily say, I don't think I've ever been so blown away in my life. I'm glad you're helping out and bringing some light to some amazing people who may even love what they do more than most of us.
*sorry bout the soft post*

get greco on there!

the ride channel is shit to me without free lunch and weekend buzz.
