Can we get this straight? Not all little people are midgets, some are dwarves. Can you change the title of the thread to say best little people skaters?

Pancho was more technical, but weeman could go bigger, and obvs had more personality.

I reckon this thread's days are numbered.

Racism is fine. But any slight on the vertically challenged is going too far.

This thread made me think of the Green Lyte promo. Ooooh, how Andrew Langi's career has crashed and burned.

Also, I grew up next door to another famous Dylan (Postl) who is a little person. He's in the WWE now. I can't find any high water pics, but I'll keep you guys posted if I do.

I lived with Pancho for a couple months in 2003, and by lived with I mean I should up on his doorstep with my buddy Jihad and he and his roommates, (Dave Nelson for Life!) let us sleep on the porch, mini-ramp, etc. for as long as we wanted. He took us around to Sunnyvale and all the cool San Jose area spots. Ultimately I broke my femur at that blue rail-4-block-11 stair or whatever spot at the high school (Jerry Hsu switch hardflip, Rojo front shuv 5050) and he even had me laid up at the house for a while. Plus he skated with us daily, was super inspiring, and just ripped it up in general. I don't know Wee-Man, but I know Pancho is an awesome human being who never wanted anything than to shred, no hype, no gimmicks. My vote is securely with Pancho.

p.s. Bob Shmeltzer at Circle-A just needs a shout out anytime I mention being in San Jose back then, he hooked it up as hard as anybody, What up Bob!

that angel cardenas is good but he's no pancho. i think on the hierarchy of dwarven rippers it's pancho, angel, some girl mini ramp short person then weeman for comic relief. i'm pretty sure i can do most anything weeman's done, pancho fs flipped into fakie nosegrinds and nollie heeled the 6 at city hall.
check and mate!

Circle a? Did they make lace saver Ollie patches? Back to poncho.  I went to school w him and he used to crash at our house. Him and this black dude marquise.  In La Quinta CA then after 8th grade I think?. Or maybe sixth. I can't remember.  But he moved up north.  And instantly got picked up.  We continued to skate and we would see him at events and shit but he got a big ass head.  Both literally and figuratively.   He would act like he didn't know us and shit.    Then when he got a little more washed up I would see him around and he would be cool. Always a cool dude tho.   I would probably been all hype had someone picked me up.  I got pics and shit of us skating my friend Dave's mini ramp.  He did some porn and shit. But props to him.  Wee man seemed a little more bro than skate but whatever.  Typos because I used this fucking iPad mini thing.

I have total respect for little people skaters. It's probably a lot harder to skate and get pop when you have the width of a regular adult but lacking in height. In skateboarding, I can see that being a real challenge and if a little person can be doing sick tricks on ledges and rails then that's worth some respect.

I've seen a lot of wee man skating footage and it's actually very good considering he's not really pro but in all that jackass stuff.

I got no hate for the little ones that skate

Actually 'midget' is not a classification, it's just a straight up derogatory term.

also, when thinking of shorter skaters, there at a massive disadvantage. riding boards unproportionate to there body size, hitting spots that are unproportionate to there body size, really means something. these dudes have so much pop and skills that us would never achieve

And Pancho was always way better.
