Seriously Kowalski is one of the raddest individuals on the planet. Such a nice fucking dude who’s as good as GT, but never got the recognition.

I just got home from a long day got faded and watched both videos. This thread bummed me out. Just wanted to make a quick reminder that prime lifeblood from like 2010-2015 was EASILY the best tranny company in the 2000s.

Damn that fucking sucks being hospitalized while traveling. Imagine he was there for that contest that everyone was at in Rio and probably got hurt during the contest.

i have too, and you're wrong. kevin is rad, does great shit. but GT is, in my opinion, the most naturally talented skater to ever live.

Very debatable. Very Very Debatable. Kevin has better style imo. I love GT but like idk I just prefer a KK, jimmy Wilkins, hatchell, Ronnie type of style over like a GT, Pedro, or Raven. Like they blast and go hard as fuck on tranny, but I like people who go fast and coast on their shit instead of trying to make it blast to the moon. I think && genuinely is the only one I’ve seen be able to throw in both types of way of skating tranny into his mix. KK is a throwback style retro kind of tranny skater, lots of bonelesses(I think his is prettier then GTs for instance), I enjoy Kevin’s grinds more then GT, he owns GT and everyone ever on the loop, I enjoy his airs more just like I enjoy Wilkins airs more, he surprisingly is insane af at technical street and regular street in person, but I never saw any footage of stuff like that, but like bro you’re flat out wrong my man. Obviously GT is a better street skater, but I think the only dudes of the 2000s to give him a run for his money on raw talent on transition I would say it’s a short list, KK, Kreiner, Lockwood, &&, Wilkins, Raven, Pedro, hatchell and that’s fucking it. If anyone shits on my && throw in here go fuck yourself he’s holding all of Canada down in park for the Olympics.

Whats worse, wearing a Rockstar helmet, or not wearing one and fracturing your skull? Hopefully he's on his way to a full recovery. Ripper.

I thought this was going to be about a gas station.

Get well dude.

True. My reason for suggesting it’s a CT is because I’ve never been allowed near an MRI with a phone to take a picture. Granted, the picture could have been taken from the technician’s office.

Edit: my pedantry aside, I hope he heals up quickly.

How do you consistently have the worst skate opinions?

First of all, GT before Kowalski - Not even a chance for debate.

Secondly, lifeblood was some kook shit and it's no surprise the dudes that were on it ended up getting element gear afterwards.

You can die in a car accident while wearing a seat belt but that doesn't void the fact that wearing them saves thousands of lives every year.

KB being stranded at that gas station was the feel-good story of the year... but this is just a bummer.  Hope he gets better soon.

I'm glad to see that Kowalski hasn't reached his Vanishing Point. He's the last American hero to whom speed means something, like freedom.
