So we all talk mad shit about skaters and their sponsors but who here has ever had the chance to actually call a pro out in person, to their face and they did it?

I never talked shit to an actual pro i saw, thats because i saw the best skaters. I saw kerry getz skating that 3 stair ledge he does half cab crook 180 out in his skate more part. That spot is like 10 minutes from me. I only been to one demo in my life and it was a Vans demo when i was young and i think the only person i got to interact with was Dustin Dollin and how you going to talk shit about him?

I have seen other people around philly like Asta and Ishod and i like them but if i see someone i don't like and im with my friends ill would probably act like a teenage girl and whisper to my friends making fun of him and laugh really loud

It wasn't me but I was there many years ago and the Split team was in town when they still sponsored skaters and I can't remember who all came out on that tour but definitely Fabrizio Santos and Andy Mac were there and also maybe Jim Gagne.

Anyway it was like 2001 or so. They were sessioning at a local park (not a demo) and I was skating with a bunch of other guys and Andy Mac is trying to feeble grind this flat bar, your standard square skatepark  flatbar, not very high just a regular flatbar that most little shit skatepark kids could feeble grind in their sleep but Andy Mac was struggling, like seriously trying it for a long time and just not putting it together.

I think it took him like 25 or 30 tries it might have even been longer but  he landed it  and landed it pretty badly too but my homie (drunk at the time) just yells out "FINALLY!" in such a disgusted sarcastic tone and Andy Mac just looked super bummed after that.

Also my homie yelled out "YEAH FROGFACE!!!" whenever Fabrizio landed something. It was pretty goddamn funny but maybe it's one of those you had to be there kind of things.

Back when Appleyard got on Globe he was living above our local skate shop.  He'd sell stuff from his packages to kids.  He tried to sell my friend a pair of Globes.  My friend told him he didn't like Globes, then got a little comfortable and told Appleyard that he didn't like his most recent Globe ad either.  It was the heelflip body varial bump to bar ad.  The way my buddy tells it, Appleyard got embarrrassed and agreed that the trick was kind of whack.

Most of you will think I'm, lying but I was sitting behind Brian Anderson  at the Paradox Cafe on SE Belmont in Portland when I overheard him discussing leaving Savier for Nike with his 'friend.' I was going to turn around and shout 'Don't Do It!' but I was too frightened. Instead, I paused from chomping down my tofu scramble and whispered to my wife, 'That's BA behind us.' She didn't give a shit.

in like 2006, we had heard rumors of Guy Mariano skating some spots in Sacramento.

Lo and behold, we run into a big group of pros on campus, fan out and shoot the shit some.

One friend asks if they had heard what Guy did/where, and then one of their crew just says "he's over there, go ask him yourself."

Said friend runs over, super hyped, and all he can say to Guy is "Oh shit dude, why'd you only have one trick in Yeah Right?

Not sure if that really counts, but looking back on how much I've learned about Guy's problems since then, it is pretty funny/shitty.

Plenty.  The best though came from my homie and not me.  The girl team came to Missoula Montana a few years back and Alex Olson was with them.  Now my buddy was/is a beast on the board but comes from a super small town and for some reason or another he never got into mags or vids, he was just in his own world.  Anyway the girl guys went to an indoor park after their demo (which was outside) and Alex Olson was far too cool to skate and just tried to hide behind the skate counter.  My homie broke his board so he went up and asked Alex to get him some grip and do his board proper!!! That little man looked like his world collapsed, he could not believe that my friend had no idea nor gave a flying shit who he was !  Emo hipster ego crushed!!!! It was fucking beautiful!

I was at the nothing but the truth premiere and was a bit tipsy.  I ran into Kenny Anderson.   I told him he looked like Michael Jackson and walked away as he was like" what the fuck"A few minutes later that one dude Kenny Hughes was backing down from j Casanova.   I kid you not.   Roger was trying to start shit with him.  Weird stuff. On the way out I was faded as was my buddy and we ran into this giant.  Weiger Van Jaegermeister and he had these two chick with him.  My buddy told him jordan had the best part in the video and the rest of the video especially the skits were shit.   I have plenty of stories about talking shit.   I think it didn't matter how good they were in a board. It was just another dudes. And sometimes you talk shit to people. 

Other great men I have had a little run in with:

Lee smith for wearing orange and black SBs at my friends house and Sam saying yeah he's into that shit. I called him a pumpkin black.   Then he said "my shoes don't define me".  I was like what the fuck you so serious about this shit.

Karl Watson for trying the same trick I was trying at the Powell skatepark way back when they had overnighters.   I was trying to backc heel the pyramid and this dude out of no where starts trying it and acting like it was his idea.   I was 15.   Fuck him.

Robbie McKinley at a bar in LA. He was FUCKED UP TO THE MAX.  I was drinking sime beer  or something and he was drinking Amstel and he started arguing with me about something.   And got all crazy drunk eyes.  And got in my face then he chilled out and bought me a beer or something like that.   

I think that's it.

Yes there is shame in laziness it opens a Pandora's box of shit shows like you and fosters god awful shit. I've skated just as long as you and skateboarding is not a lazy activity show some respect for yourself and the board. You're not above anyone and the ritual is apart of that respect. If you don't have that anymore because you are past that idea then you are a goof.

Also none of the posters here dare hurt a skate pro's feelings because they won't be apart of the after school cool club.

Back in 08, there was an Alien signing at the local shop here. This was right when Mikey had lost rather badly to Benny Fairfax in the first BATB. When I saw him, I said to him "damn, it must've sucked to get skunked in your battle with Benny". I said it sort of as a way to make small talk, with no intentions of it being talking shit, but he kinda viewed it as shit talk I guess, and looked bummed after I said that (looking back, it did sound like a rather negative statement towards him, but at the time it didn't cross my mind as negative, hah). He looked a bit ticked off, and responded with something along the lines of "well duh, of course it sucked. The ground is slipperier there than you think". Then afterwards I went up to Dill, who was leaning on some wall reading a Thrasher, and asked him if he was still homies with Jack Osbourne. He looked at me, with an annoyed look on his face, as if he was angry that someone still remembered about him being on The Osbornes, and replied with something along the lines of "....we still talk from time to time", then he walked off.

Sometimes I like gripping my own board but other times I want someone else to do it (especially when you're paying them the £50 + £5 for grip) and they can do as good a job as you and always ask if you want something cut out of it / something simple but different done to the grip (Holla at ya Graeme from Loko, Belfast).

How long have you skated for?  After skating for 20+ years and owning my own shop for years I prefer not to grip boards anymore, assuming of course that the person gripping it knows what they're doing.  Yeah, no shame in a little laziness, fucking hate gripping boards.

Yes there is shame in laziness it opens a Pandora's box of shit shows like you and fosters god awful shit. I've skated just as long as you and skateboarding is not a lazy activity show some respect for yourself and the board. You're not above anyone and the ritual is apart of that respect. If you don't have that anymore because you are past that idea then you are a goof.

Also none of the posters here dare hurt a skate pro's feelings because they won't be apart of the after school cool club.

Hahahaha

I like your name though

I told Heath to smile once and he broke my board.

I witnessed an entire skatepark (about 30-50 people) collectively yell 'BOOOOOOO!' in beautiful unison to a shirtless Ryan Sheckler in the heyday of his reality TV show. Ryan flipped everyone off and left almost immediately. I also had a choco-taco that day.
