But after watching that raw footage for the first time just now, maybe some of it is also the music editing of his footage. Much better for me without music

i literally cant think of anyone in skating that has so much and so little talent and horse ass style. He is just not good. at all.

He's really good yet somehow really underwhelming

for an already huge team jacopo is a pretty random pick for baker, but dude is sick

I feel bad for that Zack Allen kid. He looks young, and I bet if he read this message board he would be bummed the fuck out. First off the kid doesn’t seem like a kook in anyway whatsoever and seems really nice, hence why Reynolds fucks with him. Obviously he’s not the greatest skater ever, but he’s not bad by any means. If u have ability to skate the ender to that new kids in emerica vid above u are not a bad skater. He’s got a punk rock style but he’s black so I think it doesn’t translate well to slap, I just have this vibe that if he was white slap would like him better because he fits there stereotypical skater genres.

I don't get the Zach Allen hate. To each their own but to say he's not good is a stretch.

same age as most of the ams blowing up right now, and he has been a kook around me on multiple occasions. snaking locals and thinking he's the shit for doing one foots and sweepers on a 4 ft quarter. gimme a break, this kid is less "punk rock" than sean pablo.

You should still have to be more than just good and kinda nice to be fully on something like Emerica or RVCA. I get the baker thing. thats their gimmick, but not Emerica. He should be getting shop flow from val surf at the absolute most. If he wasnt on anything and we all saw his footage, he would never get the pass, but since he has reynolds backing him, he gets by.

his style is forced and unatural

But he bombed a hill in sf and (presumably) an sf local said “yeah he’s a real one” so you should just shut up okay

Exactly he had bad tranny tricks on the 4 ft hip at pedlow in an emerica video. He snakes people and keeps his mouth open like a special needs kid. Honestly just kick him off he’s ruining two great brands. I’ve “lost” my board to fuck his runs up for cutting me off before. T funks a cunt too but at least he’s talented.

Madars
Jarne
Nassim
Phil Zwijsen
Michael Mackrodot
the guy who was designing skate plazas a few years back and the sick squad from the EU vid a while back.

I back this 100% and i hope he's filming a welcome to the team part. His last thrasher part was amazing, and baker will be forever in my heart.

He said oblivion because they're everywhere but they all have like one or two boards and thats it. Take Dennis Durrant(had like three boards since he turned pro) or Lucas Xaparral from brazil( 2 boards and he's been on element brazil for a long time) as an exemple.

I agree Element riders that are not on the US team are definitely under valued. But their paycheck is probably still better than most Euro pros.

I have to agree with both of you. Thanks Bruce for stepping in too.
What I mean is that they have a sick team who is creating interesting content (and probably getting paid good money) but never seem to be part of the team and is cornered to EUPRO with a board available mainly in their own country.
I really see the potential of a Jacky board brand or something similar but for me these guys are just using good money for element for doing something rad but the company isn't really recognising it.
And EuPro as fuck is not the answer.

That's only a fs flip if a kickflip on a hip is a fs flip
I mean you can do a kick flip on a hip frontside or backside right? I’d called it a frontside kickflip before I’d call it a FS Flip but this is where it gets real semantical.

Jacopo on baker would be sick, but somehow I don't see the connections forming to make that happen.
Zach allen is still so young. everyone kooks it a bit when they're young. give him 3 or 4 years and a growth spurt and let's see how wack his skating is then. He still seems miles behind Kader, but Kader is probly a once in a lifetime type skater.

c'mon, he's obviously really good. if you're gonna hate, at least hate on something true.

I like zach allen, he got a loose style and skates pretty fast. Maybe he's a kook personally but his skating is good. Not a top pro level, but enjoyable to watch

For sure! and yeah they aren't the only ones not fitting the team, actually not too many element riders fit the team.
But they pay well.

This logic is flawed, you're setting up a false argument, nobody has ever said that shit you just spouted off as a trick name. Yes its a kickflip, yes its basically straight, but when you tell the homies you want to kickflip the hip, and they ask you "frontside or backside?", so its not "just" a kickflip, there's an element of direction there regardless if its a true "frontside flip" or a "backside flip" like it would be on flat. Kinda like how if you go over the back on a 50-50 on a ledge, just because you didn't actually pop frontside or backside doesn't make it not a frontside or backside 50-50, its about the direction your frontside and backside are in relation to the ledge, the hip, or in this case, the massive curved wall down this set of stairs.

theres a clear difference between a frontside flip and a kickflip on a hip.

your logic is flawed, since you make it seem like im saying someone said that, calling it a false argument is in this case unvalid since i did not; I just (jokingly) reffered to the word semantical.
people were argueing trick name,
since everyone saw the footage and can see he did not do a 180,
yet everyone understands where the general idea of calling it a fs flip comes from (hes approuching fs),
I wrote that because, no, when I "tell the homies i want to kickflip the hip" they dont ask "fs or bs", they ask: "coming from that or this way"
I wrote what I wrote because the discussion was about trick name and (spot)context was diluting it.

50% of kickflips on hips are frontside. More or less...

i walked away from this thread with 3 things, 1. that carozzi part was sick, 2.zach allen is a mediocre skatepark hero with clout and too loose of trucks, that first back tail tap to hillbomb with wobbles immediately was pathetic, and 3 that "frontside" kickflip on that freeskatemag cover is great

is not a trickname so its ''just'' a kickflip, no?
This logic is flawed, you're setting up a false argument, nobody has ever said that shit you just spouted off as a trick name. Yes its a kickflip, yes its basically straight, but when you tell the homies you want to kickflip the hip, and they ask you "frontside or backside?", so its not "just" a kickflip, there's an element of direction there regardless if its a true "frontside flip" or a "backside flip" like it would be on flat. Kinda like how if you go over the back on a 50-50 on a ledge, just because you didn't actually pop frontside or backside doesn't make it not a frontside or backside 50-50, its about the direction your frontside and backside are in relation to the ledge, the hip, or in this case, the massive curved wall down this set of stairs.
theres a clear difference between a frontside flip and a kickflip on a hip.
50% of kickflips on hips are frontside. More or less...
So did you just put of in the search and then scan the thread titles so that you can necro every thread that uses this affectation that for some reason bugs you? Because if you did, that is something a madman does.
Maybe correcting this?
on a side note back to the origins of the thread...
-Jacopo is amazing to watch
-I'd call it a Fronstside ]Kickflip rather than a Frontside Flip

I feel bad for that Zack Allen kid. He looks young, and I bet if he read this message board he would be bummed the fuck out. First off the kid doesn’t seem like a kook in anyway whatsoever and seems really nice, hence why Reynolds fucks with him. Obviously he’s not the greatest skater ever, but he’s not bad by any means. If u have ability to skate the ender to that new kids in emerica vid above u are not a bad skater. He’s got a punk rock style but he’s black so I think it doesn’t translate well to slap, I just have this vibe that if he was white slap would like him better because he fits there stereotypical skater genres.
LOL boring skating is boring skating.
Also a huge fan of Jacopo. Bakers gotta be better than element euro

Yeah. Slap as a whole embodies racist ideals. You're right. Fuck Ryan Lay, while we're at it. Praise Jason Jesse. Anyone know what wheelbase The Driven uses?
