Time to play Which Trick Do You Pick?

Josh Stewart or Jahmal definitely should shout out the original now if they didn't know about that ad before.

But that Hopps Cons video was great, Jahmal is certainly an East Coast original (albeit Boston, right?), and that Forties ad is so terrible it nearly ruins the Puleo photo. I can see how a stupid sarcastic ad like the original ("take that mainstream 2001 skate conventions") might not be remembered at all.

Haha, the ‘tude in the first one didn’t age well.

If we are talking about just the trick and the photo itself, I prefer Bobby’s photo.  Hitting it straight on seems harder.

I sort of wish Jahmal and Josh actually knew it was Puelo's spot and did this to fuck with him. The guy's a great skateboarder, but he's a fucking nut-job. Isn't skateboarding in part about free expression and finding spots, yet Bobby and Ricky try to write conformist rules about everything.

I am kinda with Bobby on this one. Same angle and everything (it also seems like that "spot rape" thing is not what he has an issue with, as he repeatedly says he doesn't have a problem with Gilbert's kickflip)

Everybody is quick to lash on Bobby but he's actually addressing his issue a lot better than he was doing it ten years ago back when he'd go all crazy on the TOA website. He's being cordial and articulate leaving individual replies to most people reacting like he's genuinely into trying to discuss his point, as opposed to just spamming a comments section like a 13-year-old just figuring out the Internet which is what gave him bad rep originally: the form, but his points have always been worth at least considering (of course if you disregard how some of them don't seem to apply to himself, it's funny to see how he thinks). Finally he's grasped how to present an idea.

To be honest I don't see any beef; social commentary if anything. Those two photos exist, same trick at same spot except the newest one is used to sell Nike shoes, which is what Bobby seems mostly intrigued by as he's always had an anti-Nike stance. He's an idealist but what he might be failing to see is the bigger picture of how many small, otherwise independent board companies nowadays actually rely on those occasional big name collabs to stay afloat, and that if they didn't then their disappearance would be more detrimental to the culture Bobby cherishes than if they couldn't get those deals in the first place?

His photo is super iconic, there's no way I'm buying that Josh didn't know about the photo. Or maybe I could because coincidentally I sent Josh an old part of Jahmal's a few months back as part of a random exchange and he was stoked on it, but I was surprised to hear he had never seen it before; out of all people I'd figured he would know it. I guess in reality Josh is just too modern to really worry about anything in the past and busy producing and running his things, while Bobby just cares more (which isn't a bad thing per se). There are no rules, but etiquette is nice.

I like where territorial Bobby is coming from because I like clips to reflect more than just tricks and when you can sense the personal connection between the skater and the spot. Watching a Bobby part you don't look at just the tricks, in each clip the whole picture was considered so the viewer gets an impression of how complex finding and skating the spot was, even though the final outcome somehow looks graceful. To me, way richer and more interesting than thought processes of the likes of 'just catch this hardflip'. I don't always agree, but I like that he's there.
Title: Re: Puleo vs Josh Stewart
Post by: DISTANT RUMOURS on November 12, 2018, 04:50:53 AM
Bobby really is a like an angry territorial dog that pees everywhere to mark his territory.
But actually I'm 100% with him for this one, this almost looks like a 'tribute shot'. And in an age where skateboarding is getting more and more corporate each day, we need characters like him to keep an 'edge' to it.

He's a bit weird, but I'm sure he's harmless, and there A LOT worse people in skateboarding than him...

Puleo's a dude from Jersey who made a name for himself in San Francisco and has beef with Josh over a spot in London. I very much appreciate his skateboarding, his willingness to be outspoken, and I actually agree with him on a fair bit of things, but let's not act like he's not a fraud, either.

I’d side with him in that case but it mostly seems like it’s about himself.

idk, I think skateboarding needs dudes like him, he's a nut job and all but he grew up in a different age of skating

it's not a direct comparison but it's kind of like when you feel the need to teach kids skatepark etiquette and they are just like, "fuck off old man!". If I said that to an older skate at my local back in the day they woulda fucking hog tied me to the fence and whipped me with s sweaty t-shirt.
ok, well maybe it's not the same, but while he does come across like a raving maniac most of the time I feel he is trying to preserve something that is very dear to him and maybe through making this post he was trying to make Josh more aware of what he puts out there into the "culture".
Personally though, I like it better when Bobby's just running into fancy restaurants and screaming and people and their (pregnant) significant others ;)

Bobby should be happy that a trick he did 17 years ago has any relevance in modern skateboarding.  If it was ad worthy then and now it's flattering for him.  He had a decently long career with a bunch of tricks, who cares if someone re-did ONE?  Mistake or not it seems like a grasp at staying in the skate conversation.

No point IMO. The whole " it's all crisis actors" stance is one where deep down you can never definitively prove it true. People know this stance is always an absolute dead end to tackle. How are you gonna go about proving they were or werent? No matter what you say or all the other things that you can prove and show definitively about the truth he will rest inside the tiny little dark bubble that is the "crisis actors". If an all powerful shadow government is controlling the world with crisis actors but we figured it all out then they wouldn't be very powerful and it all falls apart. So Bobby rests on the fact that he is never supposed to figure out the truth, once he reaches "out of my hands crisis actors shadow government " he stops there forever. I have come to learn this from debating flat earthers. It's like if there's a knock on the door and we both go and I say it's mom you say it's more likely dad we start arguing in front of the locked door. You start telling me it's dad because he's supposed to be coming home at this time, mom's in Mexico, the knock is louder than mom's , he's yelling open the door, you list all these things and I say no let's never open the door so that we can never DEFINITIVELY prove that it's him. Because I don't want to be proven wrong. I do everything in my power to never open the door. If you reach and unlock it I turn and run away so I never see dad's face.

willing to guess that anyone dissing puleo never really had to earn anything remarkable for themselves, and is unaware of the protective feelings one gets from accomplishing something memorable to anyone but themselves.

when the only thing remarkable you've accomplished in life is some skateboard tricks you did 15+ years ago, i guess I can see why he'd get defensive

so there's a time limit on accomplishments?  the cycle starts over again, and originality is cast away?

yeah, i'm willing to guess you've accomplished a number of significant achievements.  if it wasn't significant, why did someone emulate it 17 years later?  your logic is flawed.

sub question:  is a shifty (ollie) a different trick than a straight ollie? 


...and to the upson/busenitz guy up there somewhere... c'mon. the difference is clear. kickflip on the china banks is an improbable trick; while, kickflip on the china banks in the rain is impossible.
I brought it up only because Upson didn't have a bitch fit on Instagram about it.

we used to live in a subculture where we respected people's originality. now everyone just copies with wild abandon, and criticizes without retribution.  bobby puleo, under no guise approached the issue head on, even going so far as to name the people out in the open.  no instagram story.  no anonymous slap posting.  barrow posted a DM with zero context. Just a bunch of 'you wouldn't hit a guy with glasses' double talk.  i think it's pretty clear who the cry baby is.

What do you do?  I guess you whine about it on instagram and then call the victims of a mass shooting crisis actors and go full conspiracy idiot.  Skating in LA where everything is NBD, this is everyday.  Bobby is being pretty arrogant and could have handled this with a lot more grace.  It's an ollie that already got taken out.

Well I think any rational person would come to that same conclusion.

But he's getting a little worked up about the impact of his ad. I've been a voracious consumer of skate media for far too long and that image is completely new to me. I don't think many people had it on their walls.

And of course you can only claim to be an NYC local once you're buried in an NYC cemetery.

I’m in that same comments section trying to explain how being at a huge Las Vegas country music festival one year, and being in a Southern California country music bar the next year isn’t really that far fetched. And that someone being shot at in both of those situations speaks more about the problem of gun violence in our country and not necessarily that it’s part of a huge conspiracy.

im digging deep on this memory, so it might be slightly off from the original story. Bobby had a “guest” board that was supposed to be his official pro model back in the mid-2000’s, but he was such an asshole that Fos didn’t want to deal with him. The boards were already printed up so they advertised them as a guest model. The Theorizer(Josh) Vs The Towel(Bobby) shit has to be close to ten years old too. Bobby and josh were friends until Bobby outted himself as the guy constantly talking shit on the original Theories site.

Bobby took an advance for being on the team then dipped out on the deal. So to pay FOS back they did the guest board for him.
That is how I remember it. Might not have gone down like that but both Josh and Bobby talked about the whole Landscape deal going sour. So at least that part is true.
Sucks that Fos had to deal with shit like that being that he is genuinely a nice guy.

i can't be bothered to check but im sure mark Jackson and Chris pulman, at least, both had footage on it before. Jackson in waiting for the world I believe. both skating the top of the big bank.

yeah maybe no one did a grind and into the bank on the small bench before Bobby possibly but who fucking cares. Bobby is a confused bitter sandwich delivery boy. shit is equally funny and depressing.

i can't be bothered to check but im sure mark Jackson and Chris pulman, at least, both had footage on it before. Jackson in waiting for the world I believe. both skating the top of the big bank.

yeah maybe no one did a grind and into the bank on the small bench before Bobby possibly but who fucking cares. Bobby is a confused bitter sandwich delivery boy. shit is equally funny and depressing.

Bobby the conspiracy theorist is great entertainment.

the towel - theorizer thing was abit more than just jealousy about money. There was  (now torn down) spot in London called police banks that puleo supposedly found and skated in his static 2 part. Nick Jensen  and olly todd also have footage on it in the video but Bobby was adamnt that his footage should be shown first in the video because he found the spot. josh and bobby argued during the process of editing. Bobby was unhappy with the kinks song. if I recall correctly Josh says in a video interview that he told Bobby he would have his footage shown first in by the video to shut him then released the video how he wanted with olly todd's footage earlier in the video.

This is true, it was a whole thread on the old Theories site.  Basically someone from London called Puleo out for what he calls “spot rape” with video examples of every London spot he skated in Static.  He couldn’t offer a valid defense for any of it, except I’m Puleo and I made the spot. 

I appreciate the guys skating, however, he’s clearly out of his gourd.  I don’t know why any company would try to work with this man given his accused history of fucking them over and just being a difficult person to work with.  Heard he did some shady shit to Coda a few years ago, no details just heard he fucked them over for some money apparently.

Yeah, said he didn't care and it had 'to be expected'.

I've been talking to him, he's definitely gotten a lot better at getting his point across than he used to be:

Quote
You’ve probably gathered this, but it isn’t about Jahmal skating “my spot”. Shit, Jahmal and anyone else can skate “my spots” till they’re blue in the face. There’s a whole city out there of them. What this about is Josh Stewart and Jahmal shooting a photo of the same shit I did (first no less, of anything done, filmed or photographed at that spot), nearly twenty years ago, in an ad, and them not only posting the photo, but using it to sell a fucking Nike product.

[...]

I reached out to Josh on a personal level to ask what was up with this before I posted. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe him and Jahmal never saw the ad. It was 17 years ago. But you know what he did? He ignored me. And that’s all well and good. So now the post gets made and the questions get asked in a public forum. No skin off my back.

Spotual assault and spot rape culture are nothing to make luz of.  Think about the life you might be shattering before you pop that tail or ring that rail.

I think bobby's anguish comes from the artist's or pioneer's dilemma of watching something that was fresh and hitherto untouched become cliche, overrun, and sold/turned out.  And for that I feel his pain.  But it's the way the world Bobby.  They will come for your spots and they use and abuse them.  And in a swoosh all that you thought was precious and magic will just be another stunt that is ehhh not olympic level - but may sell some kicks.

Don’t you have any class or respect for yourself? Does one’s sexual preference have any place in skateboarding? In fact, I’ll go as far as to say that I don’t know what’s more offensive in this case, discriminating against someone because of their sexual preference or using a sexual preference to promote and sell a Nike product.

Bobby is a great skater (I still re-watch his Penal Code part on the regular), but a special level of asshole. What product was Forest Kirby trying to move?

I bet most people close to them, especially in BA's case knew, but they were willing to fully come out to the public and talk about it, instead of having it talked about as a rumor behind their backs. I doubt its a fucking marketing strategy. If it helps them move some product for being themselves, awesome. I mean, there are ridiculous Nike conspiracy theories already in skateboarding, but Nike/Cons telling skaters to be homosexual to move product might take the cake as the kookiest.

Exactly.



I want to ask as delicately as possible, so please correct me if I'm wrong: couldn't coming out be as much for others that are in the closet as yourself...?

Also, those Cons need a lot more than that promo video or Steve Brandi coming out to get me to buy them. And Bobby's statement is absolutely detestable. Fuck that. I was a fan of his skating and even bought two victim boards last year. Now I fully regret it.

But now he's gone and attacked one of our own in a very personal way.

No need to ask delicately, although I appreciate the care in which you ask, Allen.

The answer can definitely be a major yes particularly when you're any kind of public figure. That's why there's a national coming out day, to show others that I've come out and that, theoretically, I'm OK.

If you were the victim of the mass shooting, a family or friend of someone who was killed, or at the events watching people get shot I bet ol' Bob wouldn't seem so endearing.  Bibby is directly telling the victims of mass shootings that they are crisis actors on his instagram.  You picked a strange hill to die on but I guess for some people things only matter once they affect them.  Puleo is getting lamer by the day.

This is totally a fair criticism. For the record, I’d never seen any of his crisis actor posts but saw it mentioned in the last few days. I suppose I should have known. I just never paid much attention to his Instagram presence. Had I seen that previously, it would have been a tough pill to swallow and continue appreciating his skateboarding.

The distinction I guess I could make though is that he’s flinging his irrationality directly at someone rather than screaming at clouds in his own private corner of IG. A very personal moment, and he’s telling a member of a group he’s not a part of what to think and feel. It’s pure privilege. It definitely was a shark jump moment to me that he feels some responsibility in needing to “shame” someone.

Where does racism and not understanding (or being empathetic at the absolute least) homosexuality and coming out and what that entails come in to that bullshit numerology?

The whole Bobby VS Stewart/Jahmal is stupid, but at least there can be some sort of debate there. Many skateboarders have found a spot, gotten to if first, and had someone else do that trick or one up you. It’s here where the path forks - either accept it as part of life / grow from it and try to reclaim your place by trying to one up them or become a bitter asshole behind an Instagram screen, resorting to outright racism when your hypocrisy is called out, and alienating the last few fans you had.

Like what I said in the Jeremy Wray thread, I could find a bunch of people to skate with tomorrow (or let’s say, this week. No one I know can actually skate tomorrow) if I wanted to. And I live about 40 minutes outside of Detroit - not NYC. The difference is, I haven’t continually - and infamously, mind you - kooked myself out of the scene via several ways, including public forums.

Bobby, unlike Jeremy, is relegated to skating a slope to angle ironed box behind an auto parts store because he’a literally alienated everyone in the city that would/could skate/film with him. I’d almost say it’s sad, but it’s not. It’s poetic justice.

My point is Bob’s a skateboarding pariah because nobody can stand to be around him. I believe his actions on Social Media show this - and that’s the shit he chooses to put out there. That’s his good side. You can look up the Vivien Feil story for one of the many documented instances of his bad side.

Dudes a kook and there’s a reason all the people that used to back him - on a personal level or as a fan - no longer do.

Where does racism and not understanding (or being empathetic at the absolute least) homosexuality and coming out and what that entails come in to that bullshit numerology?

The whole Bobby VS Stewart/Jahmal is stupid, but at least there can be some sort of debate there. Many skateboarders have found a spot, gotten to if first, and had someone else do that trick or one up you. It’s here where the path forks - either accept it as part of life / grow from it and try to reclaim your place by trying to one up them or become a bitter asshole behind an Instagram screen, resorting to outright racism when your hypocrisy is called out, and alienating the last few fans you had.

Like what I said in the Jeremy Wray thread, I could find a bunch of people to skate with tomorrow (or let’s say, this week. No one I know can actually skate tomorrow) if I wanted to. And I live about 40 minutes outside of Detroit - not NYC. The difference is, I haven’t continually - and infamously, mind you - kooked myself out of the scene via several ways, including public forums.

Bobby, unlike Jeremy, is relegated to skating a slope to angle ironed box behind an auto parts store because he’a literally alienated everyone in the city that would/could skate/film with him. I’d almost say it’s sad, but it’s not. It’s poetic justice.

I need to get off of Slap again.

 It may not be your intention but I feel you and some others in these Bibby/Bobby threads are rewriting history citing whatever you can (always the Vivien shit, who tf is that dude really anyway, in the grand scheme?) Bob isn't your industry pariah like other cases because it's his intention.  He wouldn't ride for 99  percent of the companies cause he'd hate them and you know this.  We don't know what people can stand him or not and there's plenty of companies that would have given him a model at least up until 3or4 years ago.  Still companies now that would, admittedly less, but he is older.  Edit; maybe the bigger better question is does being a pariah in the industry of skating make you a kook ?  -to me it's starting not to look that way.  Like is the skate industry something your basing your value sys. around? I'd kinda hope not brah.

He keeps it pure and that's not a path of the least resistance for sure.  I'd say your being overly conclusive (having no personal perspective on his life) with the "nobody can stand to be around him" stuff tho.  That's kinda high schoolly imo.  But maybe that's the effect of the net.

In fact, the Bobby Puleo we know is fake and he has never filmed a clip in his life. Why do you think so much of it is at night?  Harder to see their faces, that’s why.

See how he likes a dose of his own medicine.

You’ve got a point there. Ive never met the guy, and all of what I said is just gossipy assumptions. But c’mon man, this is Slap.

That said, I was generally a fan of Bobby’s for the whole ‘keeping it pure’ thing. I’m not a fan of telling Pep Kim to go back to Korea, or claiming someone came out of the closet for monetary benefit. Because coming out of the closet in 2018, with Trump as president and seeing how awful so many people around us really are deep down, is an easy cash grab.

Those things are inexcusable.

Cool to hear that you don't think anything after 2000 "counts" in the "grand scheme of things," I'll be sure you take all of your arguments about "rewriting history" super seriously from now on, since you think literally half of contemporary skateboarding doesn't matter.

 Tu che - for sure, for an example I was looking at lavars part in triology the other night thinking it was nicer than parts I see now. Edit to be fair tho Bobby put out stuff from 93 till 2011 which why I said 'in the grand scheme of things' .  He has clips more recent than that too. Edit I meant that magenta started after the 00s ended.

I've stuck up for Bobby, both as a skateboarder and as a figurehead, for years now. His skateboarding and drive obviously speaks for itself and while I haven't always agreed with what he said, I appreciated that he was willing to speak out of turn and voice his opinions, regardless the outcome. With that being said, there is absolutely nothing okay about shaming an LGBTQ person for coming out, or telling an Asian photographer to "go back to Korea." He's reached the point of no return, and I see no reason to stick up for a bitter old asshole whose best years of skating can likely be replicated by a few kids on Instagram now.

in 2007 i was briefly roommates with this chick dating Puleo. She would always say he was broke but waiting on some crazy lump sum from iPath (owned by timberland at the time).

how could he not know he was sucking timberlands teat? the corporate vulture that shouldn't be in skateboarding?

he is certifiably insane.

In case you guys haven't had enough Bobby this week...

timandvicstagram: "Maybe you should consider changing your name to “Steve Branding”😂. Using one’s sexual preference to sell a Nike product is not only super shameful and lame, it’s also pretty offensive to not only the LBGQT community your pretend to be championing, but also to the skateboard community. At this point(and especially after BA already used this dead horse tactic to sell another Nike product), I’m fairly certain most skateboarders don’t give a fuck what you or anyone else’s sexual preference is. And on top of that, it shouldn’t matter. Not to you and definitely not to them. So that’s what makes these “posts” so curious. “Coming out on IG and Thrasher”? Don’t you have any class or respect for yourself? Does one’s sexual preference have any place in skateboarding? In fact, I’ll go as far as to say that I don’t know what’s more offensive in this case, discriminating against someone because of their sexual preference or using a sexual preference to promote and sell a Nike product. The timing of this “announcement”, the Thrasher “interview”(maybe advertisement is more accurate?) and the release of the Hopps/Converse shoe and “promo” just seems a little too “coincidently” close for comfort. Love ya bro. #businessneverpersonal"

He has officially caused me to forget about how much of a fan I was of him, and in my eyes, the final nails are being hammered into his coffin. Every single word in that statement involving BA and Brandi coming out in order to sell Nike’s is so completely laughable. I won’t bother breaking the whole statement down, but I truly think Bobby is a real piece of shit, and I hope he’s blackballed by the industry. IMO, he has 100% Officially kooked himself way past the point of return. Crawl back into the gutters of NYC, keep your bus boy job (that most 43 year olds have), and disappear from the skate world for life. You’ve earned a lifetime ban. So if you ever run into Pete Rose, you two can talk about what it’s like to be banned from your respective sports.

Check out his responses after he left that ridiculous comment. What a flat-out, pathetic, fucking loser. I can't believe I was a ever a fan of his or had any respect for him. I'm with you. The industry should just keep ignoring him and he can continue to be a delusional, self-absorbed moron.

I should have known he was insane when he anonymously argued with his own friend, Josh Stewart, for days on the Theories site. That Towel vs Theorizer argument was so embarrassing to read through. Bobby Puleo is a flat-out kook.

Now, to balance the scale, I'd like to talk about some things that bring us together, things that point out our similarities instead of our differences. 'Cause that's all you ever hear about in this country. It's our differences. That's all the media and the politicians are ever talking about—the things that separate us, things that make us different from one another. That's the way the ruling class operates in any society. They try to divide the rest of the people. They keep the lower and the middle classes fighting with each other so that they, the rich, can run off with all the fucking money! Fairly simple thing. Happens to work. You know? Anything different—that's what they're gonna talk about—race, religion, ethnic and national background, jobs, income, education, social status, sexuality, anything they can do to keep us fighting with each other, so that they can keep going to the bank! You know how I define the economic and social classes in this country? The upper class keeps all of the money, pays none of the taxes. The middle class pays all of the taxes, does all of the work. The poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class. Keep 'em showing up at those jobs.

No, Theories is sick. I don't know what this is. That future board isn't a placeholder. I skated two a few years ago, because up till these recent developments, I was a big fan.

I believe he genuinely has absolutely nothing against lgbt-people and feels that part of treating one as an equal is giving them shit like an equal, no matter what the person's sexuality is.

Obviously he did not anticipate how seriously people would react to him criticizing someone coming out on instagram. Maybe coming out is nothing to Bobby, but that's definitely not the case for the general public. Very poor judgement on his part.

There's no excuse. But he did also tell Leo Valls or Vivien Feil (don't remember which one) to go back to France and Mark Suciu to go back to the west coast. When he said it to the Magenta guy no one had a problem because they are part of the ruling white class. Understandably it sounds completely different when he tells it to an asian, but apparently Bobby does not get it.

I believe again Bobby thinks that giving shit to a person in a very confrontational working class way is a sign of respect.  He's a product of an era in which this was the norm in skateboarding. That's no excuse though for sounding racist.

Contrary to Bob,'s idea, I don't thank that that many people would be lining up to buy "the gay shoes" marketed by "the gay pro skater," "progressive" 2018 or not. I'm not anti LGBTQ, but I really don't think kids would be lining up for that kind of thing. I don't think shit works that way. Him coming out not going to move Steve Brandi into a new neighborhood or buy him 16 cars. I don't quite understand how people can think that people would come out for any other reason than that they don't want to hide that part of themselves any longer. Coming out makes you so vunerable and open to all sorts of assholes - socially conservative assholes and bitter associates - this means you Bob. The difference between Brandi coming out is that he is obviously loved and cared about by skateboarding, without being a super star. If Bobby came out tomorrow, I'd be happy for him being true to himself, but he'd still be a bitter racist asshole who has alienated 99% of Slap. This message board is known for being the last stronghold of Puleo fans. It's a fucking inside joke!

Skateboarding is about expressing yourself and I think the microcosm of slap would have been completely supportive of Brian, Forrest and Steve even if they weren't selling anything. In fact, Forrest isn't pro anymore and hasn't been for a few years. I don't even think dude fuckin' skates anymore. It makes me angry that someone is so fucking delusional, delusional because I don't even think he's homophobic. I think he said some stupid shit that he somehow believes. I think he believes that Brandi talking about coming out is going to drive people by the boatload to by those hideous (IMO) Cons. No one was buying the Project BA because they thought "huh, Brian Anderson is gay, I should buy these." They bought them because they looked sick and skated well.

At least Bobby can back up his numerology shit with the fact that  yes, he is in fact citing real numbers.

You're tripping if you don't think queer people went out and bought a Brian Anderson board after he came out. I'm gay and I bought an Anti-Hero BA board right after he came out, and I hadn't skated a BA board in years. I always liked him, but him coming out made me want to go out and support him. Have you heard of Unity? A lot of Queer people get insanely hyped to ride their boards because they know what it represents and who else is riding them.

It's about representation and seeing someone who is like you in a prominent position. Y'all can talk about like 4 dudes who have come out, but in the scope of who is currently skating and has ever skated, that's just a microscopic fraction. The number of queer skateboarders (or out ones, I should say) is only growing, and with that, there will be more products marketed specifically to that audience. Skateboarding has always been marketed towards straight dudes, so you can't go about it the same. You're going to probably see changes. I can't wait.

i agree that he is most likely not homophobic and it almost makes his attack on someones sexuality worse. its straight up asshole bully shit. shaming someone for the way they come out is disgusting and says a lot about why so many people still have a hard time being open about it when non homophobes attack you over it.

Skateboarding is about expressing yourself and I think the microcosm of slap would have been completely supportive of Brian, Forrest and Steve even if they weren't selling anything. In fact, Forrest isn't pro anymore and hasn't been for a few years. I don't even think dude fuckin' skates anymore. It makes me angry that someone is so fucking delusional, delusional because I don't even think he's homophobic. I think he said some stupid shit that he somehow believes. I think he believes that Brandi talking about coming out is going to drive people by the boatload to by those hideous (IMO) Cons. No one was buying the Project BA because they thought "huh, Brian Anderson is gay, I should buy these." They bought them because they looked sick and skated well.

At least Bobby can back up his numerology shit with the fact that  yes, he is in fact citing real numbers.

Sorry for the rant I have nothing better to do than write and get my mind off shit.

You're tripping if you don't think queer people went out and bought a Brian Anderson board after he came out. I'm gay and I bought an Anti-Hero BA board right after he came out, and I hadn't skated a BA board in years. I always liked him, but him coming out made me want to go out and support him. Have you heard of Unity? A lot of Queer people get insanely hyped to ride their boards because they know what it represents and who else is riding them.

It's about representation and seeing someone who is like you in a prominent position. Y'all can talk about like 4 dudes who have come out, but in the scope of who is currently skating and has ever skated, that's just a microscopic fraction. The number of queer skateboarders (or out ones, I should say) is only growing, and with that, there will be more products marketed specifically to that audience. Skateboarding has always been marketed towards straight dudes, so you can't go about it the same. You're going to probably see changes. I can't wait.

It was the easiest way to tell who likes dick at a skatepark prolly ever. After I saw the Brian Anderson pro models pop up at parks. I was like yep,this dude likes dick lmao.

Contrary to Bob,'s idea, I don't thank that that many people would be lining up to buy "the gay shoes" marketed by "the gay pro skater," "progressive" 2018 or not. I'm not anti LGBTQ, but I really don't think kids would be lining up for that kind of thing. I don't think shit works that way. Him coming out not going to move Steve Brandi into a new neighborhood or buy him 16 cars. I don't quite understand how people can think that people would come out for any other reason than that they don't want to hide that part of themselves any longer. Coming out makes you so vunerable and open to all sorts of assholes - socially conservative assholes and bitter associates - this means you Bob. The difference between Brandi coming out is that he is obviously loved and cared about by skateboarding, without being a super star.

Skateboarding has always been marketed towards straight dudes, so you can't go about it the same. You're going to probably see changes. I can't wait.

Dude, I have his first Anti-Hero board (and a Girl board with Templeton artwork) as a wall board. I'm not saying queer people didn't go out and support him. I'm stoked for him, and I'm stoked for Steve and Forrest. Let me try to explain:

I was definitely having difficulties explaining what I meant. I still can't really put my thoughts into words. How about this: I don't think Brian came out to sell boards, and I don't think Steve Brandi came out to sell Hopps boards or Cons. In Steve's case, being a pro with a much lower profile than BA or even Forrest, this might be his only major interview. Maybe he had a 'Heads' or 'Who's Hot' or something. I think the fact that this Cons x Hopps video/shoe drop is the reason he got the interview... I hope I'm not being unkind by saying I seriously doubt that he will have a million other Thrasher interviews, or a platform to say something meaningful that can change lives. This Thrasher interview was his one chance to do that. He took it. I'm sure that there are people in the closet reading it that feel completely empowered by the fact that Steve Brandi isn't seen as "the bic'd badass who front blunted hubba hideout," and he's gay. There were many people, when BA came out, that theorized that a lot of people might be less accepting if it was someone less badass. There's probably something to that, unfortunately.

Point is - if the more progressive people non-neanderthal, forward thinking types want to buy a Steve Brandi board or a Brian Anderson board or... uh... a Forrest Kirby dumb-bell, sick, please go do it. Support them. I've had Hopps boards and I wish I could still skate a Forrest Kirby board. I just don't think that it's generally a big marketing scheme when someone comes out. That's what Puleo thinks happened, and that's what I took offense to.

Yes, I know of Unity. I think what they do is really rad. I wish skateboarding was more inclusive to everybody, but as everyone knows, that isn't the case. It sucks there's a need for a queer only skateboarding brand because skateboarding (and unfortunately parts of society) doesn't accept them, but I'm glad they're doing what they're doing.

They also gave Stevie Shakes a pro-model, and he was/is the nicest dude with the best half cab flips and backside flips. Dude was always very very nice to me and my friends even though he had no need to be. He's jocking Hockey pretty hard right now so I'm not sure if he's involved or not anymore.

I wish Bobby would come on here. He's down with arguing on IG, which is also a data mining and marketing device. I would think paranoid people like him would feel safer talking shit/discussing on an old school bulletin board site like this. I'm a bit of a technophobe myself, I still have a flip phone and 0 social media. This is the only place you'll see me in the digital world, and an email account.

I'm not giving up on him completely, I'm putting him up there with MJ, another lost soul looking at conspiracies for a clearer view of life. Today is Thanksgiving and JFK's death date, so he's going to be busy deciphering that all day today.

Get it together Bobby, you can be better than this. I hope.

I think you are taking your argument too far. True, it is tasteless and inappropriate of Bobby to single out Steve when he's just taken such a personal risk, but to say that Nike doesn't have a massive campaign going at the moment to rebrand itself the champion of diversity, is to bury your head in the sand. I'm not saying at all that Steve took advantage of this fact, I don't believe that he did and I'm glad that he felt like sharing something important to him with skateboarding. But independently of that, from Nike's perspective not Steve's his sexuality has to be a check mark on his marketability in a campaign that focuses on diversity. I'm not saying that's wrong, just that it seems pretty obvious.

Oh of, course they do. I don't disagree with anything you said. I just don't think anyone at Nike/deluxe/cons/theories/hopps/et all were pressuring BA or Steve Brandi to come out just to add that to their marketability though (not saying you do either).

I genuinely believe Bobby wants every last person to leave NYC, no matter their country of origin. He hates every human being equally.

Edit: now that someone’s making this argument below for real, I feel like I need to just walk this joke back. He should know better. No excuse for the comments to Pep or Brandi.

well then he better take the path or nj transit back to new jersey and then eventually make his way back to italy.
