Not sure if anyone else made mention of this
but Sunday at the X-Park Contest Alex Olson was told he couldn't skate
because he was 10 minutes late.
Gay.
Bummed me out.
I really like watching that dude skate.
Here's the video and rant about it:

"Well it's 10 o clock and I'm two hours late

My, that is homosexual.

Skateboarding is completely fucking gay, and not in the lighthearted, stylish, manfucking way either. It’s just fucking gay.”

I sat on a design panel with that dude Bostick (thats another story, whatever.) Anyways, his story (according to him) seemed pretty similar to a lot of industry types, he didn't start out to be a kook, just aged into one. It was obvious he thought he was really important and his contest organization a big fucking deal. So it's not surprising that he would treat skaters like replaceable commodities: i.e. "The contest is more important than any individual, he missed his heat, who fucking cares we'll find someone else to fill his spot, blah, blah, blah."
And they wouldn't give Thiebaud a pass? I wonder how the execs from Monster, Axe, etc. were treated
-
wait, i'm confused. what does the x-games have to do with skateboarding?

Olson wouldn't have had anything for it anyways. Would have much rather seen Rattray, Keegan, Grant Taylor or Peter Hewitt in there.
In any case we can all agree that if only like 10 dudes are going to be allowed to skate, Andy Macdonald SHOULD NOT BE ONE OF THEM.

the guys that painted the graffiti got $1000 each and a ton of free paint. they spent as little tims as possible slapping up some garbage around the course and jetted with the paint and the cash. trust, they weren't putting any effort in whatsoever

^X-games ramps are returning to their paint-soaked roots.
My guess is that he did it on purpose for the excuse to rant, as he prefers hipster vbs coverage to any actual skate coverage.
Anybody hear that new R&B "come inside" song? That song is pretty gay. Dude sings "come inside" as well as about his desire to lick your lollipop. Its inuendo and all, he never outright says that he wants someone to come inside of him, but if you read into it, its there.
Did you know tinky-winky is gay?

No way there was this one time that Andy Mac like totally hung out with my 7-year old and talked to him about skateboarding and signed his board and then this one time I saw Andy Mac give a poor kid the clothes off his back even his pads so he had to stop skateing because skateing in pads isn't a positiv example

Yeah, coming inside of a girl is important. Pulling out is to fucking what bulimia is to eating. This one has a guy requesting you come inside. Nothing wrong with that, its just that there are a lot of R&B singers trapped in the closet.

If there would to be a huge Gay Skateboarders Awareness Day, the world would be a nicer place. The sponsoring companies will spin forth tales of anus, by accepting homosexuality, we condone the beating off gays. The media will cry out for unnecessary (and perhaps unconstitutional) hate crime laws. The masses will be told that they must renounce their homophobia. The word homophobia will be used to belittle people. We saw this with the Rodney King officers and O.J. Simpson, faggots.
The pro-gay mock and ridicule the religious, calling their thinking backward and close-minded. Why is it bigoted to find something wrong with homosexuality? If someone can't accept, on moral grounds, the concept of stealing, that doesn't make him a bigot against kleptomaniacs. With homosexuality, what someone is and what they do are pretty much one and the same.
Studies show that homosexuality begins in the womb, making homosexuality, in actuality, a birth defect. How can anyone be proud of a birth defect? I understand the principle in handicapped people overcoming birth defects and leading normal lives, practice. Why not just let two guys that are good buddies marry so they can both get a health plan. Might as well let to regular people get married so they can get a heath bar.
The male gay are always fairly harmless and easily seduced. The female gay, however, DOES scare me. How come lesbians in real life are never like those nice ladies you see in late night Cinemax (Skinamax) movies? The real ones are all hell-bent on filling the world with crappy music Indigo Girls, Melissa Ethridge, K.D. Lang. Why should it matter if someone is killed over their sexuality or over their wallet? A human life is a human life. Why should certain groups have special protection and not us? Gay Skateboarders Unite!

I always start off looking at these trying to make serious sense of it all, get really confused, read through the first part a couple of times, then see who wrote it, and it all makes sense.
-
know whats gay?! i read your articles in the mag while taking baths filled with epsom salt. not too gay, i just always read your shit while taking baths.
actually ruined a copy of skinema cause i dropped it in the water.
also gay he wasent able to skate! really wanted him to kill it!

TapLuxiferfet reminds me of the kal (http://www.slapmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=33&action=profile;u=13683)-bot-account that only responds to keywords.
-
FUCK that. The only reason he showed up to that is to try and win money. "It's skateboarding it's not that serious" hahah. If it wasn't that serious then there wouldn't be enough advertising money in it to offer such big prizes.
Olson was being all Hollywood and showing up late and he got what he deserved. Lesson learned maybe?
-
alva would show up late....but..ahhh...yeah.....see contest jjudging thread.....

good read, thanks for that chris.

that part where the guy is stating the rules to chris is fucking like a parallel dimension. dude was all old and leathery and he was telling skaters what to do. in my experience, these were the people we used to tell to fuck off when they said shit like this. and they're still saying the same shit too!!!
man, the article was excellent, but the vid pissed me right the fuck off. that leather faced freak still can't see that rules aren't the last word in skating. did you see how shocked he was that chris didn't just accept the whole, "that's just how it is" argument. i hate shit like that. i mean, for that matter, if i rock you in the fucking face, then that's how it is now right, bitch?

If skateboarding/skateboarders were so punk rock then they wouldn't show up to some wack ass bullshit like the X-games? Everybody used to think it was gay now they are all showing up. Because they WANT MONEY. That's the only reason.
If I was that leathery old guy I would have just told him to piss off and get his fucking camera out of my face and stop whining like a baby.

I know a gay dude who ollied a 20 stair. Swear.

I figured there'd be a thread in here about Nieratko's gripe about ALex Olson.
Hey Nieratko, I wrote this in the Vice forum, and I'm writing this here. As long as you and any other skater and/or industry flunky is willing to take those assholes' money, and fall all over each other to participate in their "spectacles," they get to tell you exactly when, what, and where skateboarding is. Plain and simple.
That lady with the fat arms telling any skater that they can not skate, is the most lucid manifestation one could ask for, to illustrate how fucked it is to have so many outside influences controlling and influencing skating these days.
-
I'm surprised Chris doesn't get that the X-Games is not a real competition. None of the televised shows are. I thought by know everybody knows it is nothing more than a television program, not a competition that happens to be televised. It's owned by Walt Disney Productions if that tells you anything.
Don and Danielle are good people. They basically took over Frank Hawk's self appointment as competition promotor after he died. When the skateboarding exploiters came around who better to hire than the World Cup folks. They are not a non-profit, they don't claim to offer any leadership that I know of. (Although they could drop the Gary Ream connection and I would be just fine). They are HIRED by the network to provide skaters and judges. It's the networks who make the calls.
The woman in the clip (who is not Danielle) tried to explain that the TV show was live. When I thought about that, it made sense that if Alex had been thrown in out of his turn, the name on the board and screen would be someone else's.
Don and Danielle are making a living on what they do, what they hire themselves out to do. Chris, weren't you hired to be there?
My advice to any pro complaining about the TV "skateboarding competition" shows just don't go and end the frustrating exploitation everyone is feeling. They are the ones being gay right now. And by the way, I RESENT(MBLE) those "old and leathery" remarks! ;)
-
I was, indeed, hired.
Because like most, i need the money.
Owning a skateshop is not exactly the smartest way to make a living
or support a family.
But it is fun.
ANd i understand the X-games are b.s.
i mean, Big Brother came up with the FUCK THOSE DUDES anti-party.
i'm not trying to paint the X-games in any light other than they are.
My problem is with people like World Cup who have the ear of X-Games,
who get to "speak for skateboarding."
After posting the piece i got a ton of amazing industry feedback.
one of the most amazing was an email that said,
"Two times at maloof this year... During the jams... Lizard, who was murdering it all weekend, was going for a last trick at the buzzer, down rincon, and bostock blew the airhorn on him mid air... Scaring the shit out of him... Not once, but twice. Even after people complained the first time.
Secondly.
During X Games 06, while Shaun White was trying the 1080... ESPN or whoever had to go to commercial. Now this was a half hour long best trick jam. He was trying the whole time, getting closer and closer and closer. They were letting him try a few more. But NOT BEFORE A COMMERCIAL happened. So Don, and a few other security guards, posted up on the flat bottom so Shaun couldn’t drop in. And you see Shaun up there... Like trying to stay loose, jogging in place, stretching, trying kickflips... Anything to stay loose, ya know? For like 10 min whil bostick stands on the flat holding his hand up “STOP... DON’T GO” style...
Eventually the commercial was over, Don and the other SS left the ramp and Shaun got like two more tries... Obviously stiff and came nowhere near landing it.
Not that im an advocate for shaun... But im an advocate for the progression of skateboarding... And its a strong possibility that Shaun would have landed the 1080 that night if it werent for the commercial break..."
Look, i don't believe Alex was going to win the whole shit but so what?
and i really enjoyed watching all the guys that skated without pads destroy the park contest.
But, fuck. The kid was there. He WANTED to skate.
it wouldn't have been hard to put him in a later heat.
Regardless of being live and having to change TV graphics.
It happens all the time on Live TV.
I'm pretty sure when OJ was in the bronco, the graphics kept updating.
As for whoever posted that the fat chick had the right to tell me anything, you're tripping.
i, like most people, on this board believe NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO TELL ME SHIT.
and thats why i like these message boards.
The opinions expressed here might not be right, i might not agree with things
and you might not agree with me and you have the right to call bullshit.
All points are valid.
and if not valid, at least good for a laugh.
i wasn't trying to change anyone's perception of anything with the videos and post.
it wasn't meant to be that deep. i'm not that smart of a guy.
I just like skateboarding. and i wanted to see olson and Busenitz skate.
and i didnt get to see either.
Because of horseshit reasons.
And i felt cheated.
Little Timmy watching on TV probably wouldn't know either of those names.
and that's fine. But i wanted to see those 2 guys skate.
So when Don Ho says i can't because one of them was tardy, i get a real bug up my ass.

Nieratko, I--for the most part--think that you and I are on the same page about most things. Over my nearly thirty years of traveling and skating, I have had the honor and privilege to have relationships with a number of different shops (and families) throughout our country (and several here in the Detroit area). Shops are the thread that bind our fabric as a collective community--in my eyes, nearly indispensable in fact. "Scenes" radiate outward from them. I know you are concerned with the future of the world that most of us in here, have dedicated ourselves to. This is according to what I have heard you say and write over the past few years--a past few years that seem like a bit of a watershed in skating, because generational transitions have ushered in some of the most acutely deplorable and unapologetic "selling out" that our world has seen to date. Sheckler, and any and all of his decisions and actions is the nadir of the world of skateboarding's relationship to western consumer culture--the gap has been bridged, and we really have no right to say that we are any different than any other commodified, packaged, and salable consumer product.
Although Sheckler is not necessarily unique in his utter and total acquiescence to all of the media and consumer shit, he is indeed the "extreme" (the nadir) and the other end of the scale. He has lowered the bar to about a third of an inch off of the shit-smeared floor. And if nothing else, he is a glaring illumination of the fact, that many of us skaters approaching the thirty year mark--although we still to this day skate almost every day--have absolutely nothing in common with the newer generations, when it comes to social and cultural perspectives, and the ways in which we measure the value and relevance of skateboarding.
Nevertheless, and to get back to your comment about me "tripping," with my assertion that the women with the fat arms had every right to tell you who, what, when and where skateboarding was during that "spectacle"...well, indeed she did my friend...and lamentably so. She--that fatuous, ambitious, "go-getting," aspiring, banal, nameless, faceless, random, media flunky--not only had every right to say that our first second-generation pro could not, and would not skate, but indeed, stopped him from skating. End of story. You take their money...and...yes...well...and so it goes.

I once paid a prostitute $300 and she still refused to let me piss in her mouth.

Nieratko, of course you are going to disagree, because you have to live with yourself and all of your self-delusions about what an iconoclastic and "core" voice you are in our maelstrom of increasingly whored-out debasement, but what exactly about my assertion can you deny? I will break it down to a basic syllogistic structure for you old sport.
Premise 1: Lady with fat arms tells Alex Olson he cannot skate at deplorable-media-extreme-jackoffathon.
Premise 2: Alex Olson (despite Nieratko's futile and pitiful whimpering) is prohibited from skating at said "spectacle."
Concluson: Lady with fat arms has ultimate power over Alex Olson, Nieartko, and skateboarding, at least for that event (but at least Nieartko and Olson can get some money).

dude, for christs sake, stop repeating yourself. we got your point and no one needs a fucking pie chart. we just don't agree and your vag is weeping cause we don't acknowledge your fucked up logic as fact.
the bottom line is, regardless of what your limited scope of vision shows you, the only reason that her rules worked is because alex/dennis didn't just show up and start skating like rebels. if that would've happened, your fat lady power theory is out the window and we move on to the security guards having power... until shit gets physical and then it's survival of the fittest (basic third grade science).
plus, you know that "no late entry" shit was lame anyways, you're just trying to hijack this shit and make a point of your own. we get it. now fuck off (or don't).

They would have just been tackled. I sincerely doubt Alex was skating in the contest just to ride the awesome ramps. They cut him, so he was out. That's that. The dude is right, if you get involved with corporate bullshit, you have to deal with it and do what they want you to do. Pimps don't give money to their hos for being pretty.

that was my point. the whole absolute power thing is bullshit. it's just rules and consequences. and their rules suck dick. that's all.
i get the pimp analogy, though i don't think it applies here so much. still, i don't think alex olson cares much and neither do i. i just didn't like littleethnic trying to make out like no one has a right to bitch if you got paid by them. that's stupid. people bitch about injustice on the job all the time.
you ask me, i'd rather just let SPOTlight productions run the skate contest world, then we'd see what champions are made of (beer).

Fair enough. People can be upset for getting screwed by the boss. But I think they should have known that was coming. Lets stick with the hooker analogy. It would be like a girl getting hired as a hooker and getting offended because the John wanted to fuck her, being a corporate hack is part of being in the x-games. That's why people call it selling out. If there was no downside it would be called getting paid.
-
I guess that what follows--for the most part--is in response to the discourse between Gipper and kamltoe.
I understand I have reiterated the same thing over and over again, but the main point is, Nieratko is suppposed to be some kind of bastion of resistance against all of the--for lack of a better term--unapologetic and wholehearted "selling out" that is occurring these days. And of course, he is not--he is just another industry flunky who commentated at the x-games. I mean, if even our--supposed--voices of reason and dissent are acquiescing to the pressures of consumerism, commercialization, and homogenization, we're kind of fucked...eh? Once again, this cannot be overstated.
Shouldn't there always be at least some people in skateboarding who are not on board the whole main-stream media circus? If for no other reason, than to balance things out--to keep the proverbial finger in the dike?
Are we at the lamentable point where we no longer even kid ourselves about being a unique counterculture who understands that American consumer culture is the most voracious, destructive malignancy that this planet has ever been faced with, and thus, resists it--because the implications of what we are talking about, are that broad.
Nevertheless, Nieratko shouldn't be taken very seriously, and I understand that. Like his whole spiel at that Tim O'connor (or however you spell his name) "roast." Nieratko is going to condemn Nike's--admitted--myriad of crimes against other humans we share this planet with, but at the same time, act like Addidas is different.
We have no more Craig Stecyks in the skateboarding media juggernaut anymore--that kind of honest, uncompromising integrity is pretty much gone. And that has been my main point in ridiculing Nieratko's flawed, self-serving logic. Yes, when it all comes down to it, the act of skateboarding, and each individual's relationship with it, is the only thing that really matters...but...to act like the community that binds all of us together is of no consequence or relevance is fucking naive. For instance, the fact that street skating has--and always will be--an act of civil disobedience in our increasingy Orwellian, acutely commercialized landscape and culture, will always be vital to me.
The relevance and truth of the Thoreau quote that is at the bottom of all of my coments, is eternal in nature, and its utter appropriateness in the context of what we are talking about here, proves this.

You now what, going back and reading your comments, kamltoe old sport, I find a pretty awe-inspiring analogy on your part. Your comparison with Alex Olson's predicament, and unhappy laborers at a job. I am not actually arguing against your logic--in fact, you might unfortunately have a really fucking disheartening point.
Fuck, have these outside influences taken over to the point that fucking professional skateboarders are going to need unions to represent and defend them? Fuck...I wish I could argue that your analogy does not work, but shit, you may have soemthing there old sport, and that is pretty fucking sad...

whats the big deal here. i wouldn't let alex into my party if he was late either.
just kidding. everyone knows fashionaly late is the way to fucking do it.

i guess it's all in your perception then, cause when i read what Nieratko wrote, i got the feeling he was lamenting the same loss of the community spirit that used to make things like "late for your heat" a non-issue in skateboarding in general. no one cared, because that shit didn't matter if you were a guaranteed ripper (we just want to see you skate). i read that skateboarding is gay because of that loss. so i don't see where you're really at odds with his statement except that you're saying he doesn't have a right to bitch because he's complicit via employment. which is a whole other point than the loss of community spirit that leads to fat arm chicks denying skaters entrance to a contest. but like i said, perception is everything and if you got something different from his article, then cool.

But are you really surprised that the x-games would be lame like that? I'm not. I would expect it.
-
Gipper...no, I have considered the x-games the beginning of the end since the first one.
In this regard, I have seen but one solitary x-games event, and that was by chance--the mega-ramp spectacle last year. Of course, I have not owned a television in over a decade, but even if I did I would have no interest. I do not even consider the x-games novel. They are--in my eyes--an aggresive affront and debasement of something that I consider to be a bit of a faith.
The fact that someeone like Nieratko (someone who is regarded as some kind of voice of dissent), is taking part in all of that shit, and also acting surprised and offended at their rules is what is--not surprising--irritating to me.
Once again, I do view all of this in the much broader context of skateboarding's subversive--and thus socially and historically invaluable--position in the juggernaut of american consumer culture, and have written on it fairly extensively in academia. Especially with regards to skateboarders and how we inhabit--allegedly--public space.
I do look at things, for the most part, through a Marxist lens, and something like the x-games, to use a quote from an old Slap (from Whiteley I think), is "trivializing and confining" a counterculture that you and I know is infinitely valuable and precious on multiple levels, and needs to sustain its unadulterated nature--at least in some pockets--indefinitely.

Dude, this is a messageboard, not a fucking thesis. I want to vomit now. Seriously, how long did it take you write that? Did you have a rough draft? Did you proofread? Send it to an editor? Fuck!
I'm not hating on you, just flabbergasted at how forced the "intelligence" in your posts seems. You don't need to prove anything to anyone.

"Forced"? Really? You think that that is something overly intellectualized. I know that the literacy rates are plummetting in this wretched, declinig culture, but it still never ceases to amaze me how much shit I get in here for the way I write. That's every-day talk for me man...sorry. I do not spend enough time "in here" (the only internet "forum" I have ever taken part in) to have the whole guidelines and etiquette thing down. What, am I only supposed to speak in blunt, monosyllabic grunts?
For the vast multitude of poo-poo, pee-pee, shoes, fingerbanging, jager-bombing doggerel in here, I have found that there is always a few other individualos in here that enjoy a good debate about important things that have consequences for us all.

oh i'll bet you fucking HAVE!
[devils advocate]
though i agree on most of the basics, i think your perception is the one being confined here. we can argue that the quality of skating has dropped due to the corporate influence. but one could argue that the width and breadth of that raw skate culture has spread to almost 1000 times the size it was in the "purer" days. and it's not getting watered down either (check the felem boys in japan for an example). so while the suburban white boys in cali and the boondocks might've had it easier in the old days, i could argue that skateboarding as a whole has grown and traveled and lived a hell of a lot better with the budget sharing that has become common in the skate world with the money recently available. and if you're black, the mainstream acknowledgement has definitely made it easier to just skate whatever and not get hassled (not to mention getting put on and treated equal to whatever spicolli lookalike is the golden boy of the team). so it's pro's and cons to the argument that no one wants to mention, but it's waaaay too much for me to care about.
skating has taught me that in order to get the greatest feeling, you have to be willing to break some shit. period.
the industry is the same way. old fat dudes to Rocco's model, rocco to the Girl model, Girl to whatever the hell is gonna happen next. you never know. and even if it takes a few painful tries to get it right, i have enough faith in the rebels that inhabit the deep recesses of this industry, that if it gets too bad, we'll just stop bitching and pull it.
fuck what yall are talking.

Ah kamltoe, there's that stark optimism I love about skaters. And I agree it is convenient to pacify ourselves with the idea "that if it gets too bad, we'll just stop bitching and pull it."
But after a certain point, it stops beng ours to pull. I have worked at High Speed, and I know how things work. Once people have big houses, and cars, and wives, and--most importantly--children, the choices and freedom to make them are gone. There are an abundance of big contracts out there these days, and the owners of those contracts, are not skaters, but corporations...

That may be the case, but it still seems forced. Everyone's up for a good debate, but you'll have to excuse me for pointing that out when I'm used to 15 year olds trying to debate which shoes are acceptable to wear and which ones make you a "faggot". It's not like I don't understand you. Even in daily life with actual adults, I rarely hear this kind of dialect. When I do, it just seems pretentious.

That's that individual's choice to sign that contract. You know that. Just because a corporation controls a man does not mean they control an industry. Also, what EXACTLY did you do at High Speed? Were you an intern?

Crailtapper, to even get into what you are talking about, elicits the same kind of debate you say is "pretentious." Every day conversation amongst "actual adults" is regressing to the point of being below that of teenagers and children. That is that plummetting literacy rate I mentioned. Aside from being the most obese country on the planet, we are also becoming the most ignorant. Do the research if you don't believe me. I mean jesus, every "undeveloped" third-world country out there, has been able to convert to the metric system, for instance, but i can guarantee, that this land of fat, imbecilic common laborers will never be able to swing something as simple as that transition.
Simply put, of course your common every day adult conversation is not about the kind of issues I have mentioned. And that is why common, everyday, "actual adults" take orders and dig ditches, and people that can actually maintain "sequential thought patterns" write laws and other such "pretentious" things. If I thought all I would get "in here" is common, everyday "actual adult" conversation, I would never be in here.

No intern...I did what any nomadic hessian does...work in the warehouse, and it was a good experience, but turned to just another job pretty quick (although I did do an interview for Slap...Stereolab)...

The debate is not pretentious. All of those things you mention are not pretentious. Shit, your points aren't even pretentious. IT'S YOUR CHOICE OF WORDS THAT IS PRETENTIOUS. You being such a scholar, I didn't think I would have to tell you to actually read my response. And you try to make it seem like working in a warehouse and writing a single band interview gives you almighty insight? If that's the case, I'm just as knowledgeable because I worked at a shop. That being said, I'm done. There's nothing left to say after cum on my quat's post.

If there would to be a huge Gay Skateboarders Awareness Day, the world would be a nicer place. The sponsoring companies will spin forth tales of anus, by accepting homosexuality, we condone the beating off gays. The media will cry out for unnecessary (and perhaps unconstitutional) hate crime laws. The masses will be told that they must renounce their homophobia. The word homophobia will be used to belittle people. We saw this with the Rodney King officers and O.J. Simpson, faggots.
The pro-gay mock and ridicule the religious, calling their thinking backward and close-minded. Why is it bigoted to find something wrong with homosexuality? If someone can't accept, on moral grounds, the concept of stealing, that doesn't make him a bigot against kleptomaniacs. With homosexuality, what someone is and what they do are pretty much one and the same.
Studies show that homosexuality begins in the womb, making homosexuality, in actuality, a birth defect. How can anyone be proud of a birth defect? I understand the principle in handicapped people overcoming birth defects and leading normal lives, practice. Why not just let two guys that are good buddies marry so they can both get a health plan. Might as well let to regular people get married so they can get a heath bar.
The male gay are always fairly harmless and easily seduced. The female gay, however, DOES scare me. How come lesbians in real life are never like those nice ladies you see in late night Cinemax (Skinamax) movies? The real ones are all hell-bent on filling the world with crappy music Indigo Girls, Melissa Ethridge, K.D. Lang. Why should it matter if someone is killed over their sexuality or over their wallet? A human life is a human life. Why should certain groups have special protection and not us? Gay Skateboarders Unite!

You know I can’t help but say something, but if professional skateboarding considers me a kook, there is something wrong with skateboarding. I’ve been skateboarding all my life. This is how I got into the scene.
Was living in Massachusetts and moved back to Washington in 7th grade. The skateboard I had was some old school 80’s piece of shit, with neon boardslide rails, and even one fat piece shit neon thing for the tail. I had many boards before that one, it was no big deal back then, like it is now to have some old school board. I tried to make friends with people that I had known before, but they looked at the way I dressed and I was not deemed cool in their book, no mossimo or big Johnson shirts kinda shit. They were jocks/preppy dudes. So I had no friends. The dudes I made friends with were the punk rockers who had safety pin earrings, died hair, shit written all over their back pack, into graph, hip-hop, metal, and skating, 7th grade. So I made friends with them. They asked me if I skate, I said yes. Brought my board to school, they laughed at me said you are from Hawaii with that piece of shit board. I eventually got the skateboard shape that we all use today, started picking up mags and watching skate videos, waxing curbs street skating. In HS we rebelled against the mainstream faggot dick riders, who do this gay ass popularity contest in HS, bunch snobby rich fucks. Skateboarders bond because they get “kooked” by the jocks/preps. Its just how it was back in the day. These days are different. That is not my myspace, I don’t have a fucking myspace, that shit is for people like you. I would give you more details, but you guys are pathetic and make skateboarding hella uninteresting. PEACE and grow up and get a fucking education, later you sober fucking republicans.

Cab mute grab sounds like some dumbass shit you’d hear at a snowboard contest. “Cab mute 1440 double cork” yeah let’s not. Or is skateboarding just cancelled all together now?

I really like watching that dude skate.
Here's the video and rant about it:

Wow this entire thread aged like milk.
what do you have to say @CNieratko
Anyone that has ever said something is "gay", even in the obviously joking in an immature tone type of way, should be killed, or at the very least, cancelled forever.
Nieratko=legacy erased permanently.
wow, i'm always impressed when someone can take an ancient idiotic thread and somehow make it even worse. bravo.
Dude this is slap someone always takes it too far. But according to that guy millions of people need to be killed and that’s a bit extreme even for slap. Also what are we calling gay twists now? Cab mute grab sounds like some dumbass shit you’d hear at a snowboard contest. “Cab mute 1440 double cork” yeah let’s not. Or is skateboarding just cancelled all together now?
I recon ishaboi is probably joking.
Is it a cab if you grab? I say no but I'm no vert guy. Fakie 3 mute too easy.Or even Fakie 3 weddle grab if that's where we're at.
