One of my all time favorites, but man does he ever come across as being a suicidal heap.

Hopefully he pulls himself out of whatever hole he currently resides in.

I noticed that he quickly edited the caption from "Finally done with this shit." to "Finally done with this therapy shit."

He edited his caption. He's done with therapy. Seemed kind of quickly considering he recently got on Adidas.
Title: Re: Marc Johnson of skating?
Post by: IanBZHD on February 26, 2018, 06:26:52 PM
He updated the caption saying something like "I'm finally done with this therapy shit...", so I think he saw how it could be taken the wrong way and changed it.

Edit: beat me to it

Is he not just talking about physical therapy?
In a post only 2 days ago he said he couldn't wait to skate again and he missed it.

His original caption didn't say therapy and was more along the lines of "I'm done with this shit!!! Thanks to everyone who has ever bought my board and shoes"

Dude is from my hometown and I'm a massive hater, mostly due to his internet presence. Regardless, I was unaware he was hurt and most definitely talked shit about his piss poor post Adidas coverage. Marc, we just want to see you skate. We're simple and easily entertained. We don't want to expand our minds. Your job is to ride a skateboard for money. We will do everything we can to support that. Throw us a bone and let's see some sexy arm sways

Art beat me to it. C'mon, guys. Say what you will about his off-the-board antics the past few years (arguably fueled by the infamous Mike Carroll interview, for what it's worth), but if MJ can get his act together again, you know he's capable of producing some great footage. And, if not, bummer, but it's not like he doesn't have roughly two decades of high-quality output to look back on.

Is there literally any post in this thread that is speaking ill of Marc's skating??(aside from josphat who was obviously trolling) Marc has been one of my favorite skateboarders for 15+ years now, but his good skating doesn't make him impervious to criticism about his narcissism/pretentious attitude/hypocrisy. People love to pretend that their favorite sk8bortrz are infallible yet 90% of slap is talking shit about the shitty attitudes of good skateboarders.

For all of this dude's shortcomings and nonchalant to spooky weird to try hard shit makes sense. He's a conflicted man who wonder's why this skateboard shit is ever relevant. When you grow up you get some choices and when you make them they come with repercussions. Context is everything fella's your judgment gets real harsh fast and speculation amps up.

To be fair the past couple years of MJ have almost entirely been "off-the-board antics". If he's been hurt/had other stuff going on preventing him from skating that's more than fair, but his entire presence within skateboarding lately has been borderline delusional ramblings. I'm a big fan, but it's not like the negative reception is outta nowhere.

Let's all just forgive Koston too huh? ;)
No one ever has/ ever will deny his skills on 4 wheels and a plank. But like Vallely and a lot of other skaters he just needs to shut up and skate end of story! I've honestly stopped paying attention to MJ these days because after the whole corer than thou but oh wait I just signed to Adidas fiasco he just seems too ridics. Especially if you compare him to someone like Daewon who was in a similar situation but handled it 1000% better. Sucks to hear any skater is hurt but I just wish that he'd understand that people only want to see him skate...

One of the few who can make tricks that sound ugly on paper look incredibly good.

He likes the sound of his own voice a bit too much, but I'll take a MJ who talks too much and produces like 30 minutes of footage over a 9 year run (Yeah Right to Pretty Sweet) over a silent PJ who went 12 years between full parts. Obviously, there is the worst of both of these, and that person is Brad Staba.
