4 pages deep and not one mention of how awesome it is that a Funkadelic track got used?! God damn, Elliot Smith's music and the people that dig it are so incredibly lame
Funkhouser absolutely reminds me of Dressen. Even if he isn't as young as everyone assumes, his skating's still gonna be a lot more mature in a few years, and I look forward to seeing it. And I like his attitude too.
Deykeyzer blows. His natural style is stiff and awkward, and then he slathers the affected "stylish" composed push/arms on top of it. Really going for that "copy of a copy" vibe, pulling more from Austyn than Dylan.. A lot of his trick selection is awful, some of the "tasteful tech" ledge tricks ala Puig/mid-'90s Mariano were fine, and for neither better or worse that fakie flip b/s shifty was pretty out of left field/straight out of PJLWHL. He would be 25% cooler if he stopped doing 180 no complies altogether. There's a chance that he eventually and legitimately matures in say five years, using his obvious talents for some top tier, original skating, but I'm not holding my breath. I can acknowledge the fact that it really is THAT much harder to be born Canadian and be attempting to shoot for "cool skater".
yah...180 no complys are getting super played out. But I actually love the dude's trick selection. He knows whats up and has a great eye. Can't really say much about the kid's arms, I'm not here to 'nit-pick people's style', BUT I was really surprised how mature and awesome the first kid's style is considering all the talk leading up to this was about how he's such a puny runt.
Both guys kill it. One's gonna grow up to be a super gnardog and the other one's already a hipster. Both of their images appeal to certain people on here, add em up and it accounts for 98% Slap approval one way or the other. Good going DC
