finally actually listened to the Ted clip, and wow, I'm disappointed in you Ted. I thought from the comments you might be bagging on Pontus imitating Matisse or Surrealism in general, but "the american" skate scene? For an art historian, that's a pretty piss poor argument, and as a skateboarder it denotes a lack of appreciation of the individuals who make up our shared history and traditions, since you're basically suggesting skate esthetics as the product of industry "graphic designers" and marketing schemes. You didn't even have the balls to name Blender, probably because it'd be too easy to disprove your argument, since Pontus has put Neil's name in lights many times already, which is more than you can say.
alright, "disapointed" is a strong word, but I have to agree with people saying this reeks of sour grapes, personal shit.
