Title: Are you better under pressure?
Post by: Tracer on August 16, 2017, 07:58:01 PM
Be real here. People are watching, do you crumble or thrive on board?

Personally I'm much better with people watching, with any activity really. Say some family walks by, I feel like I owe them something just to show what skating is and upping the stoke. Extra effort is applied for sure like a do or die mentality. By myself or with a couple homies the session can get pretty lazy trying the same thing over and over. I've been called a showoff before, negatively, but I'll take it, like trying hard is some knock against you? Watch how much better everyone gets at skating when a camera or 2 start rolling, fukkin night and day.

This is a topic that never gets discussed so I took to SLAP for answers, bring it!

Not if I'm taking a run during a contest I don't mind skating in jams or if chicks show up I'll start ripping haha
Anytime I try to film I suck though I can't clear my head and feel like I'm on someone else's time

Cameras make people act different, remember it's on you for a reason, if you were a total scrub no one would even consider filming you.

thanks for the input guys I've always wanted to film a  part but most of the dudes I've grown up skating with have kids or quit skating already. I got one good homie left that still shreds and it's way funnier when we both just skate and not try to film each other. Hard to make friends when your 25 and not a social butterfly I mean I dont have instagram facebook none of that shit

I'm going to start filming everytime I hook up. Maybe, the pressure will result in better blowjobs.
