front foot flips. it just always strikes me as a stupid flatground trick to win games of skate, i just can't take them seriously. all of p-rod's ffflip enders in his iTunes video made my dick soft.

is it just me though? is anyone out there watching a video and is like "holy shit that front foot flip looks so cool".

Giving off that "artsy" vibe on camera just for the sake of it.

examples:
1) getting footage of yourself taking pictures with your vintage pentax
2) smoking cigarrettes with squinted eyes
3) Pretending that the camera doesn't exist

I would have to say the worst is NOT skating. Seems like that is some sort of trend with individuals who consider themselves skateboarders.

I dont think you would call yourself a basketball player if just had the latest Jordan shoes and played HORSE once a month.

When I think of hip hop in a video part, I think Josh Kalis in the DC video. And that is a fucking awesome part.

This, he's a great skater but when I tried talking to him and Instantaneously got bored.

I also hate the rising popularity of ultra thin vulc shoes and skaters trying to look like hipsters by rolling up their pants as if preparing for the rainy season. Just buy shorts and stop being gay.

damn i had a whole tyrade on the beanie issue and how being back east you wore it to keep your ears warm, then it dawned on me that all these kids i see wearing a beanie in southern california are EXACTLY like the morons that wear ug boots. From now on when I see someone with one on in 90 degree weather I'm gonna be sure he realizes that comparrison.

Commercials and trailers without any actual tricks. I don't need to see you drinking coffee and I don't need to see a montage of high fives.

Front foot flips are hard, I dont know whats wrong with you but Prod's front foot flips in and out of grinds, plus down 12 stairs are very impressive and amazing to watch.

kids who can do every flatground trick but can't 50-50 a ledge. Games of SKATE = the new freestyle.

this is so true, I just wish I had though of it first. Kids who can do shitty 360 flips and nollie heels yet hang up and slam on a rock to fakie on a 3 ft quarter, so stupid

Adidas.

15 years ago when i was broke and couldnt afford some half cab i used to skate cheap superstar, gazelle etc.

Now they called themself "Skateboarding", made a "team", the same shoes cost twice, and all the kids are buying.

I've never seen it to that extreme, I doubt that anyone can 3 flip and not be able to rock fakie. But I will admit that most kids can barely backside 50 a qp, but they have a sick flatground game; But skateparks being crowded as they are nowadays I dont blame them for not skating ramps that much.

PS. How the fuck can people hate on hip hop in video parts? I could list 10 fucking awesome parts right now that are set to hip hop. Seriously, guys, what the fuck?

quite easily. with very very few exceptions, i cant stand listening to hip hop.

Suit yourself. I feel that editing a video part to hip hop adds a certain energy to it, but it's pretty hit or miss.
