I've seen a young 8 year old skateboarder with around 30k followers on instagram at my local park once or twice. The only reason i remember him is because his dad would curse at him repeatedly when he doesn't land a trick. I've seen him on the ground crying from eating shit and his dad would call him a pussy. I've also seen the poor kid crying in the corner of the park trying to stay away from his dad and being too shy to speak up when other kids close to his age would ask if he's okay. This kid's rad dad is a fucking monster and puts his kid through hell for instagram popularity, etc.

When you see the slams this little kid takes on instagram, you know damn well that any other little kid would have stopped after eating shit so badly. Instead, his shitty ass dad forces him to do it again until he either lands it or gets hurt, and then writes on the posts how "passionate" his son is to keep going and land it. This kid never seems hyped to be skating and keeps trying stuff as a result of his fear of his dad. Almost everytime he lands a trick, he looks relieved to finally have it over with and not have to deal with his dad instead of being hyped that he did something hard (like any other little kid would). I honestly hope child services takes custody of the child from that terrible father of his before he gets severely injured from being forced to try something that's too gnarly for him.

Do you think an 8 year old really wants to retry a trick after slamming like that?

TLDR: 8 year old kid eats shit hard, cries in pain and has to re-try tricks because his rad dad forces him to

His dad is definitely a botox roid monkey, which they're not running out of in California anytime soon. Sucks for that kid, he probably hates skating already. All that for what, Santa Cruz? Shit, they don't even make leg braces.

Unfortunately southern California is a hotbed for those shitty overbearing parents trying to make their kid into a star. I saw this girl's^ Dad being incredibly lame as well, at Prince Park in Oceanside several years ago. Same thing - she seemed over it, and he was giving her grief for not committing to a frontside air (if I remember correctly?) in that ^ bowl. Said some really wack shit. I ended up seeing him again at an indoor park and really had to bite my tongue when he was talking about skateboarding - such a kook with no idea what real skateboarding is like. I hope these kids ban their parents from the session as soon as they're old enough to recognize the wackness.

I think about this kinda shit when I skate with my son. He’s 7 and he has a couple tricks he can do. When we go to the park though I usually just let him skate how he wants.  The only time I give him any pressure is when I ask him to do something he’s already done before (like dropping in on a tall qp) And even then if he doesn’t want to do it all he has to do is say so. I would hate to force him to skate.

Always feel uncomfortable when stumbling on that insta. The dad should be investigated for sure. No doubt that’s child abuse.

Why the fuck are Santa Cruz endorsing it? They have seemingly normal people working in association with them like Kevin Braun and joe Perrin. Does no one step in a tell a TM that they shouldn’t be endorsing this?

This could be the creation of the next big skate jock douche. Like a nyjah, biebel mega hybrid. This kid's gonna be fighting dudes at the xgames that beat his runs. Or maybe he will start his own contest series where people just Ollie progressively larger stair sets while their parents degrade them on the sidelines. Either way, this should lead to some quality slap threads over time. "I'm Trae the tank baby! And I'll beat your bitch ass any day of the week!"

He played professional baseball for ten years and has not enough money to let his kid enjoy life?pretty sad!!!
He think it’s easy to get rich in skateboarding ;D
[close]

This smells of ten years in single A. He never made it so he’s going to force his kid to be the best. His dad probably did the same thing with baseball and he failed and let him down so he won’t let trae “fail”.

so for people that don’t understand minor league baseball, to put it simply, this dude played at a level just above college. AA is the second lowest level, and for pitchers it’s make or break time. if you can pitch well in AA, you’ll get bumped to the majors at some point. if you’re pitching in AA for years, your shot at the majors was gone in the first year, and you’re just too stubborn or stupid to see the writing on the wall. also, AA players make like 15,000 a year in 2020, can’t imagine how little this moron made throughout his “career”

it must be utterly confusing and unnerving (terrifying?) for these kinds of dads, when their kids not only want to pursue something like skating, which these kinds of dads not only never understood, but which i bet he and his friends probably used to ridicule and attack.

it's fucking awful to watch these boobs try to make up for how little they can relate to their kids who want to skate, by barking at them as loudly and aggressively as they can to try to get them to do shit faster and higher...god forbid the kid just have fun...

i saw a very young Nyjah with his dad several times a week when i worked at vans skatepark. Little nyjah never skated with any other kids, only his dad. little nyjah could also heelflip board slide the rail, and do other tricks that seemed to involve skill. trea the tank is young and could still develop skills, but blasting ollies and doing 5050s isnt really progressive skating. remember how good and tech young louie was or young bledsoe. they did real tricks. hopefully dad is just biding time until young trea is ready to lean to throw a curve ball. all the money is in baseball. $15,000 a year to be in the minor leagues beats getting flowed boards as an eternal AM.

Oddly enough I was lurking his IG last night - seems like his dad is the one who comments as the way he writes, isn't how a 9 year old would. Also, all his pictures where he's in them, seems like he's fake smiling. Looks very forced. Check his sponsor package pics if you wanna see what I mean.

i could see these dads--in the warped and sordid vacuums that are their minds--viewing the violence being done to these unformed child bodies, as also perhaps proving to others (since appearance is everything of course) that their kids are in fact TOUGH, despite their enthusiasm for such a traditionally "pussy" pastime practiced by freaks, fags, and misfits from bad families...

Also it’s dope the dad wants to like be involved with his kid, but it’s shitty he has no concept of how to go about doing it in a good way with skateboarding and is basically willing to murder his child as a result.

Of course. Nothing is wrong with that man. I don't think that is what we are saying at all. It's the shitty jock mentality and pushing them past their limit. Not caring for their wellbeing.

So whoever the mom was is a mystery. Looks like the dad has raised him on his own his whole life. Not too often you see single dad's with full custody...kid rips, and scrolling back he survived a brutal pit bull attack when he was four. He could be pro by 14, or he could be playing high school sports. I've seen a viral IG grom skater just change hobbies out of the blue over a summer.

I can guarantee from personal experience that this kids body is gonna be completely fucked by the time he's 18. He can barely flip his board and he's jumping down 20's. Nyjah was talking about kids like these in a recent interview. How they don't bother to learn the basics which are the building blocks for every other trick. That's why nyjah never got seriously hurt, because he put in so much time practicing every trick and getting really consistent. This kid is gonna be a flash in the pan, another Carlo Ruiz. Still, ollieing a 20 stair at that age is crazy.  There's not a lot of pros that can do that.

I just wanna add this there's so much speculation and anecdotal 'evidence' about this kids dad on this thread. Perhaps let's give him the benefit of the doubt a little bit and not completely trash him

There's no way in hell that his dad does NOT write the ig comments

big wow

that 20 stair he ollied is the same one tommy g did a f/s flip down - it's more like a long 15-16

that kid would die if he tried the lyon set, it took out jaws and he could ollie that 20 stair blindfolded
i was gonna say it didn’t look like a proper 20. I had a buddy back in the day who could ollie off anything when we were 12. He was a skinny little kid and i saw him ollie off this thing that had to be 15 feet and was just a straight drop. Did it no problem and completely stopped skating by 15

Now on top of that they would have the rest of Slap which there’s a lot of smart and good skateboarders on here interspersed with all the shitheads, plus there are non great skateboarders on here who are mighty fine people and would raise them to be a good young man/woman.

Rad dads just remind me of all those basketball parents I saw growing up that tried to live through their kids because their own careers weren't worth shit.  Hopefully this Trae kid can escape and join Greenpeace or something rewarding later in life.  And if his dad got hit in the groin with a pomegranate from a heckler at the skate park, it'd be divine justice.

I'm becoming that guy but I actually did DM Andrew Cannon to get his opinion on this when I first saw the thread. No response so far. I like Andrew, he seems levelheaded so I'd like to hear his thoughts.

It reminds me of John Cardiel's Epicly Laterd, where Phelps tells a story about how John's dad was an ex-Marine I believe, and made John jump off a 70-foot bridge or something when he was seven or eight. Obviously it's water instead of concrete, and it's not skateboarding, but in my opinion it's still not the right way to raise a child. Not talking badly about Cardiel's family, I just don't agree with that.

Furthermore, it also reminds me of a PhD candidate who wanted to make her kids "strong" so she would show them horror movies...her kids were 5-8 years old. These backwards-ass misconceptions of parenting continue to be used. I don't get it.

I dont know where you are coming from and why you would wish for being treated like this. My dad wanted me to become a tennis pro and I am glad it wasnt the day and age of social media. He was obsessed with the idea of me making "easy" money and pretty much projected his own dreams onto me. It wasnt as bad as it looks for poor little Trae,  and yet I am still trying to make peace with my dad about this whole shitty topic. So yeah, I wouldn't wish to be in Trae's shoes and we should definitely comment on the IG account. Doesnt have to be offensive but apparently his dad needs a reality check soon. Thanks for bringing it up LPQ!

LOL....LPQ this is your source for the dad beating his son?! This thread is judgmental AF. I still want to know about the mother. Might explain the closeness of the father son relationship. It's not like the dad is taking him out into mother nature like surfing or snowboarding, it's still the kid taking the pushes and commitment to ollie a 20 stair. 9 year olds cry all the time. I don't see any issues other than the dad having a potty mouth.

-minor league baseball players make less than full time fast food employees
-parents that live vicariously through their children are the worst and the kids will grow up to resent them.
-let your kid be a kid.
-parents that play the "rad dad" roll at the skate park might be slightly worse than the traditional sports crazy parent. There are no boundaries and no set "norms" so they just do whatever they want and freestyle their fucked up  parenting.

Also, will Nyjah's "dad training" program be considered total success once he wins olympic gold giving all other rad dads a life quest?

naw i've seen this kid with his dad in person a few times and those statements from LPQ's first post in the thread are definitely accurate. Especially about the kid not wanting to skate and the dad forcing him to do shit. I've seen the kid in tears after slamming on a large gap or handrail and his dad will be cursing him out for being a "pussy" instead in any way at all. And I don't mean like minor little kid slams, i mean like full body slams on the ground after hucking yourself down something and eating complete shit. Just seeing this kids face when his dad treats him that way is heartbreaking to see in person. Parent is a monster confirmed

Yeah this is what fucking gets me. At least in football or hockey you get fucking paid. Skateboarding, the odds of getting paid are so much lower then all the other “sports” out their. I mean how many skaters make over a million a year? That’s commonplace for the bottom of the barrel NHL, NBA, MLB, and NFL players. Like his dads get rich scheme makes no sense at all in skateboarding. Maybe that’s all his kid wants to do, and his dad thinks he knows how to make a pro skater. I was lucky in that the big cats trained me, and I can assure you the big cats do not train the cubs like this.

I dont know where you are coming from and why you would wish for being treated like this. My dad wanted me to become a tennis pro and I am glad it wasnt the day and age of social media. He was obsessed with the idea of me making "easy" money and pretty much projected his own dreams onto me. It wasnt as bad as it looks for poor little Trae,  and yet I am still trying to make peace with my dad about this whole shitty topic. So yeah, I wouldn't wish to be in Trae's shoes and we should definitely comment on the IG account. Doesnt have to be offensive but apparently his dad needs a reality check soon. Thanks for bringing it up LPQ!

Yo u still play tennis? That’s only activity I do outside of skateboarding. I know what u mean with a parent(s) trying to push you to purse something like that and sometimes it is in the best interest but this kids dad seems like a total douche. The sweet trampstamp doesn’t help but why is he seriously having his kid huck down these huge sets and grind handrails? He’s gonna be burnt out or totally fucked with injuries before he’s even 16. From his IG , looks like he has already taken some gnarly spills

Jesus christ. That kid took 3 slams that are harder than any I've taken in 33 years.

i saw a very young Nyjah with his dad several times a week when i worked at vans skatepark. Little nyjah never skated with any other kids, only his dad. little nyjah could also heelflip board slide the rail, and do other tricks that seemed to involve skill. trea the tank is young and could still develop skills, but blasting ollies and doing 5050s isnt really progressive skating. remember how good and tech young louie was or young bledsoe. they did real tricks. hopefully dad is just biding time until young trea is ready to lean to throw a curve ball. all the money is in baseball. $15,000 a year to be in the minor leagues beats getting flowed boards as an eternal AM.

Going off of that...the poor kid doesn't even know how to soften a fall. If you watch those slam videos he's just out there ragdolling himself around. It's pretty uncomfortable to watch honestly.  I think a helmet and pads are always best for kids when they're easing into skateboarding but they're a detriment if the intention is to be indestructible like we're seeing here where this asshole literally turned his kid into a crash test dummy. And what's the point of all this? Like you said with this skill set and wear and tear on his body he's not going beyond being an eternal am.

Also from a psychological standpoint none of this is healthy either. Imagine being his age when this all started 4 or 5 years ago and going through adolescence being exploited by somebody who's supposed to nurture and develop you and being treated as just some kind of meal ticket.  I mean this is all red flag 101 from a standpoint of how to fuck up a kid's head. I hope this asshole holds on to those flat brimmed hats and  Santa Cruz shirts because that's about all he's going to get of doing this to his son. He can put them in a box next to his single A jersey.

Just watched his most recent revenge compilation on YouTube. Kid broke his leg skating a stair set not super long ago. Shits depressing. I will say though that he has quite a few fucking tricks he can pull down 10 stair rails which I was suprised by, in that vid I saw bs board, fs board, fs lipslide, front 50-50, front 5-0, front smith, back krook, and back feeble on 10 stair or bigger rails. As much as we want to shit on his dad, kid has a decent amount of tricks he can do on big fucking rails for his age. I wanted to watch and see if this kid was just doing Ollie’s and boardslides on giant shit before I came on here with a comment. Kid can kickflip, shuvit, and 180 down good sized shit as well. If I were this kids coach, and I’ve coached enough kids, it’s obvious the kid has the balls to skate whatever he wants, so it’s not really in his best interest in terms of getting hurt to really push him in that direction anymore. I do think skating bigger stuff when you are younger is actually the time to do it because if you are small and can skate a 10 stair handrail, it definitely will age better then learning it later so long as you don’t suffer major injuries. I would say at this point kid needs to focus on developing a flatground game, getting his switch skating down, and learning how to play on box’s, manual pads, and also learning as many tricks as possible on flat round rails. This kid actually has the potential to be a really good skateboarder, but if his dad keeps pushing him in one myopic way with his skateboarding, there’s no way this kid becomes great. He should also teach him how to carve and do some slalom. Some slalom would really open this kids style up. I could write a literal manual on how to make this kid top level and the exercises he would need to do. The Big Cat has had so many people over the years ask him how to make their kids good skaters and have been willing to pay good money. If this dad was serious and wanted an actual opinion on how to make a great skater, he really should hit up cheetah. I don’t want to see this kid get hurt when he has good potential, and someone as good as me could rationalize with the father and make him be like yo this isn’t the best route for your kid. Straight up hit up cheetah if you’re reading this Matt.

This thread is straight gnarly. I wonder how this will escalate....I bet the dad won't actually fight, but if he did my money is he would whoop ass, he just looks like that. As for the kid, like I said earlier he could be pro in a few years or playing a different sport.

The nastiest thing about all this is the thread. To be calling someone a child abuser online from a different state or country is fucked up.  I can't imagine what would happen if the skate dad's and mom's in my state got accused of child abuse because of a still frame or because *gasp* a kid cried and a parent swore. This shit reminds me of the bbq 911 bitch or that other bitch calling 911 for the kid selling water bottles.

Go hang out at grocery store all day or a mall. You'll see mom's and dads go crazy on their kids all day. Call the cops and hang out waiting for them to arrive and file a report for a parent yelling. 🤔

heres dad's response to all of the questioning

I dunno how people can believe the dad for simply denying these claims.

You know how easy it is  to ask somebody over social media if they did something wrong and for them to answer "nah"

If you approach anybody for having done something wrong at any time in the past, they're most likely going to deny it. Not saying that this is in the past, but this has been an ongoing thing with this dude and his child for the last few years at the minimum

The line “If you skate you know there’s no way you make yourself jump down 20 stairs and on top of him make him land it” is convoluted and weird.

Unless it’s an autocorrect issue, it’s like he’s tried to get two contradictory excuses out before either was fully formed.

 “there’s no way to make yourself jump like that (so of course someone has to pressure you)”

And

“(There’s no way) to make him land it (if he actually didn’t want to)”

I wish it was clearer what he was trying to say here

Just watched his most recent revenge compilation on YouTube. Kid broke his leg skating a stair set not super long ago. Shits depressing. I will say though that he has quite a few fucking tricks he can pull down 10 stair rails which I was suprised by, in that vid I saw bs board, fs board, fs lipslide, front 50-50, front 5-0, front smith, back krook, and back feeble on 10 stair or bigger rails. As much as we want to shit on his dad, kid has a decent amount of tricks he can do on big fucking rails for his age.

He's too small to get a flatground game.
Smaller kids need drops/ramps to do flip tricks because they can't jump high enough to do them on flat. I'd suggest that now is the time to master transition.

Since I know the dad has checked the thread once at least:

Like others have said, Trea could focus on transition and get more flat ground, flat bar, and ledge skills. Kid is crazy good - no need for him to huck it down 20 stairs rn - as incredibly impressive as that is. Also, tell him to watch old Bobby Puleo, Ricky Oyola, and Kieth Hufnagel parts. Shalom.

are you smoking crack? Little kids can do any flip trick. The fact you think flip tricks require strength and not board mechanics/leverage tells me a lot about what you know in regards to flip tricks/skating in general. Learning flip tricks at that age is the best because it ingrains the muscle memory before 13, then when the kid grows and gets the strength to pop that shit he’s already consistent as fuck. I’m saying this not to be a dick but because people have literally begged me to train their children. There is not a single flip trick a kid would not be able to do with proper technique. Where this is more true is technical manual/ledge skating because you need power to flip in and out correctly, but just for base flatground flips, no son, you’re fucking wrong, so fucking wrong. Plus learning how to slalom would be so much more beneficial for this kid then learning how to skate transition but that’s a whole different story.

That was my dad, I wish I realized at the time he was too fucking cheap to send me to military school. My dad wasn't all bad though, he only got on me about school. He was proud of me for rejecting playing on the baseball All Star B Team after my friend who sucked got put on the A team because his dad was the coach.

Always supported my skating but I don't think he ever took my board away or anything. Always wanted me to be careful. He sure was a dick but he wasn't the worst.

There’s this other skate dad in so-cal that has two kids that look like baby cavemen with Mohawk helmets. Saw them at a demo type thing and when one of the kids wouldn’t try to jump over this picnic table set-up, the dad would cluck at him like a chicken. Felt bad for the kid, but felt worse for skateboarding as a whole

Was it "StuntmanJake" ?? He sorta looks like a baby caveman, and I'm pretty sure he has a Mohawk Helmet, lol.

You do have a point about muscle memory though. I did a ton of shove-its as a kid and even if I hardly skate I can still do them almost waist high. My kickflips are good too, the ones I posted in the shalom off I swear were a fluke because of that lame ass setup I had. You gotta believe me guys.

Well since we know he's reading this.

"Trae talks back at times. He doesn't listen"

Well no shit bud, you're raising him like a commodity instead of a child.  How do you expect a child to show you any respect or even have self respect when all you've instilled in him is a purely risk reward mindset. I know single A baseball teams don't teach Social Rule System Theory but this poor kid's entire existence revolves around you exploiting him for your own gratification and gain on social media.  Deny it all you want but the way his entire social media presence is crafted is out of his control and everything in those clips and pictures points to a kid his been coached and managed and conditioned into something simply to please his failure of a father.

Let him be a kid and actually skate with other people away from the camera. Just the sheer volume of content alone on  these pages you've made for him is disturbing. We all skate, we know how time consuming it is traveling from spot to spot and the time it takes in between these trips to rest up. Not to mention the fact that he's in elementary school and spends his entire day in school. Like what time does he actually have to be a child and develop normal relationships and learn about life the way kids are supposed to?

I did my first tic tacs and rode a board for the first time when I was 3, and could you know ride around the driveway on my little world industries board. I then quit like 3 weeks into it and didn’t become a “skateboarder” until like 10, although I rode a board on and off in my driveway not doing tricks every summer between then, which I credit with making me realize the importance of not doing tricks.
I mean when I was a young kid and started taking it seriously, close to traes age now all I wanted to do was be a pro skateboarder. I could see his dad trying to help his son as much as possible even if it’s a fucked up way of thinking. I think he realizes that marketing the kid is the trick to getting sponsored as opposed to baseball or something where it’s purely based on statistics and win loss percentage. Now I definitely ate some shit at 3 years old, and to be honest the younger I was, the more shit I was willing to eat before giving up, I found this to be true even as I aged. Like if I get smoked now it’s fucking over, so I don’t agree with that shit. I also had a similar experience of having a black eye from jumping off my roof as kid and the school thinking my dad or mom beat me as a kid, so putting this out here like this is definitely not shalom because little kids do crazy shit, and my dad or mom definitely did not beat my ass. Like at this point everyone here thinks this dude is abusing his child and we genuinely don’t know and are making assumptions like a bunch of idiots on the internet, I mean it’s slap, but for real.

Or maybe it’s a great alibi. “No I don’t hit him this is from skateboarding”

Well since we know he's reading this.

"Trae talks back at times. He doesn't listen"

Well no shit bud, you're raising him like a commodity instead of a child.  How do you expect a child to show you any respect or even have self respect when all you've instilled in him is a purely risk reward mindset. I know single A baseball teams don't teach Social Rule System Theory but this poor kid's entire existence revolves around you exploiting him for your own gratification and gain on social media.  Deny it all you want but the way his entire social media presence is crafted is out of his control and everything in those clips and pictures points to a kid his been coached and managed and conditioned into something simply to please his failure of a father.

Let him be a kid and actually skate with other people away from the camera. Just the sheer volume of content alone on  these pages you've made for him is disturbing. We all skate, we know how time consuming it is traveling from spot to spot and the time it takes in between these trips to rest up. Not to mention the fact that he's in elementary school and spends his entire day in school. Like what time does he actually have to be a child and develop normal relationships and learn about life the way kids are supposed to?

I did my first tic tacs and rode a board for the first time when I was 3, and could you know ride around the driveway on my little world industries board. I then quit like 3 weeks into it and didn’t become a “skateboarder” until like 10, although I rode a board on and off in my driveway not doing tricks every summer between then, which I credit with making me realize the importance of not doing tricks.
I mean when I was a young kid and started taking it seriously, close to traes age now all I wanted to do was be a pro skateboarder. I could see his dad trying to help his son as much as possible even if it’s a fucked up way of thinking. I think he realizes that marketing the kid is the trick to getting sponsored as opposed to baseball or something where it’s purely based on statistics and win loss percentage. Now I definitely ate some shit at 3 years old, and to be honest the younger I was, the more shit I was willing to eat before giving up, I found this to be true even as I aged. Like if I get smoked now it’s fucking over, so I don’t agree with that shit. I also had a similar experience of having a black eye from jumping off my roof as kid and the school thinking my dad or mom beat me as a kid, so putting this out here like this is definitely not shalom because little kids do crazy shit, and my dad or mom definitely did not beat my ass. Like at this point everyone here thinks this dude is abusing his child and we genuinely don’t know and are making assumptions like a bunch of idiots on the internet, I mean it’s slap, but for real.

All very valid points. I personally haven't used to word "abuse" because you're right we can draw conclusions from assumptions here and that's not right even if this dude is actually "abusive".

But when you look at the things we have to go off I definitely think it's fair to call the dad "exploitative". You're absolutely right about social media being a means to an end in regards to sponsorship and shit. However when you look at hashtags like "grandeur" and "instafame" and read comments from the guy it gives serious credibility to the stories about him being demeaning to his son in public and makes the overly managed social media accounts look weird as well.

Most of us were under age 10 using some form of social media. I had a fucking geocities page dedicated to Korn at that age (and was deep into skateboarding) so you'd think there would some form of personal expression from Trae on his own pages. These pages just feel like a marketing tool from the dad more than Trae's own outlet which again reinforces  the "exploitative" nature of  everything.

I just think it's sad. Is it uncommon?  No and unfortunately because of social media this stuff is more prevalent than it's ever been. But in this case being skateboarders we know what "normal" is in regards to how somebody skating at that level should be. I mean just the way he slams like a wet mop alone gives the impression that his entire time on a skateboard has been about being a hashtag. It started as #4yearoldskater and now here we are at #9yearoldskater or #10yearoldkater. What I mean by that is that  I think his entire time skateboarding has been about producing these "stunts" or whatever that audience of 47 thousand instagram followers see them as more than a kid falling in love with and progressing at skateboarding on his own.

The poor kid seems negatively conditioned to just going out and doing the biggest shit possible for the sake of producing content is my point and that's unfortunate.

Not even speaking about the kid's knees and body in a few years or about the loads of shit he eats already.
i wish he will be able to skate as long as possible if he wants and enjoys to but all this is smelling surgery at 12 ... i really hope i'm wrong on this one

And the thing with him being physically abusive is that it would actually be counterproductive in the scheme of things. I mean here's a dad who's basically relying on his kid "making it big" to validate his own failed dreams of "#granduer". And the thing with these stage dad types is that because they are so devoid of any concept of childhood in regards to social norms (the ones here in America) that they don't think they're emotionally crippling their kids either. I mean by all accounts Trae seems to live in a nice area and he probably truly is "spoiled" and has a "good life" in the same way Jockey's think stabling their horses in nice places gives them a "good life". In both cases the exploitation doesn't register with the "handlers" because the care they provide is indeed superficially good and with these types of parents they either trauma bond their children to the idea of shared success or just negatively reinforce it to such a point they that perceive their children as being on board with this kind of shitt because the kid is terrified to say otherwise because they don't want to let their parents down. That's what sucks is that kids are hardwired to please their parents.

Unfortunately all of that creates equally as strong social deficits in children as out right locking them in a basement everynight in the sense that they're still depriving their kids of traditional human conditioning and social interaction on top of being frigid and overly demanding. That's just what makes these scenarios sad is that by placing so much emphasis on "#instafame" people like Mr Single A Baseball basically set their kids up for failure in the sense that they instill the same vapid mindset into the children.

It just bums me out to see skateboarding in the same realm of things like pageantry and sports in regards to something  hashtag hungry parents would even try to cash in on. I mean at the point most of us started skating it was something our parents hated us doing. I'm rooting for the kid though and I Hope everything aside he does at least somewhat enjoy skateboarding and that skateboarding itself provides him an opportunity to get away from this guy.

Depressing stuff, clearly the dad is someone who thinks pro sports is the only form of success and tries to re-do his failed attempt through his kid.

Still fucking weird to see this stuff in skateboarding, as skateboarding is still nowhere near as lucrative of a career as major sports, and is largely based on luck. There's a handful of pros that might make close to the minimum salary of any major sports league.

so for people that don’t understand minor league baseball, to put it simply, this dude played at a level just above college. AA is the second lowest level, and for pitchers it’s make or break time. if you can pitch well in AA, you’ll get bumped to the majors at some point. if you’re pitching in AA for years, your shot at the majors was gone in the first year, and you’re just too stubborn or stupid to see the writing on the wall. also, AA players make like 15,000 a year in 2020, can’t imagine how little this moron made throughout his “career”

spot on, his numbers were painfully mediocre too. Odds are the last team he was on let him go for a new vending machine.

AA is the second lowest level, and for pitchers it’s make or break time. if you can pitch well in AA, you’ll get bumped to the majors at some point. if you’re pitching in AA for years, your shot at the majors was gone in the first year, and you’re just too stubborn or stupid to see the writing on the wall. also, AA players make like 15,000 a year in 2020, can’t imagine how little this moron made throughout his “career”

spot on, his numbers were painfully mediocre too. Odds are the last team he was on let him go for a new vending machine.
They let him go for a new trash can to bang on.

This smells of ten years in single A. He never made it so he’s going to force his kid to be the best. His dad probably did the same thing with baseball and he failed and let him down so he won’t let trae “fail”.

this is now a Korn/ Geocities thread. fuck this stupid kid and his dumbass dad.

This girl in my city used to have this crazy Geocities page that we found because she linked to our local shop with a picture of a collection of her shop stickers. She also had a picture of some D3s with the caption: " ~o0O tHeSe R mAh sHooS, tHeY kIcK sO pEaCe!!! O0o~ ". She was then nicknamed "TAMS" (These Are My Shoes), and that phrase can still be heard to this day when trying to show off some fresh new kicks.

Tams became quite the legend, she was really weird and tried to fuck everybody.

This poor kid. No doubt the dad is a piece of shit. Most guys that I have met that are or were in the minors or farm league for a long time are super shitty dads if they even stick around. But damn this guy really sucks.

It would not surprise me if this kid is not allowed to think for himself or have friends.

Hopefully on the slim chance he does have real a friend, I hope they read this thread and show it to him like "see its not just me that thinks your dad sucks." Then maybe this kid will open his eyes and become a real person.

For real it's super simple to look up baseball stats if they played professionally (even if it's only the minor leagues and/ or independent leagues.) LPQ has come up with much deeper things than he has with this topic.

One time I was at the skatepark and over my left shoulder I heard two annoying girls talking and one asked the other what they were doing this weekend, and the other said "Well I can't really go anywhere. My parents took my car away." I looked over my shoulder to discover it was TAMS speaking and then in a playful sitcom "Who me?!" type of voice she mimed holding a steering wheel and driving, then threw her hands up like this Ż\_(ツ)_/Ż and said "Drinking and driiiiiiving again!"

SJws? Well at least you’ve confirmed you’re an actual fuckin idiot. Thanks for that.

Telling a parent how to parent is a good way to get a slap in the face. Currently biting my tongue about whether I should tell my sister how to parent. The fact that I'm not a parent probably wouldn;t help my case though.

Playing the devil's advocate here, but if a situation is becoming uncomfortable to watch as a family member there's no reason to keep quiet. I mean, sure, you're trying to judge the severity of the situation but at some point (sooner than later) it's worth speaking up to stop things from getting completely out of hand if you can.

Yeah, not everyone is a total psycho about a family member speaking up. My two sisters stopped talking to each other over the dumbest shit. One was being a little shit and cut the older one off, they are both adults at that time. I just happened to talk to my mom about and was like wow, she's totally fucked up. After all the times we get her back for her dumb shit she never does the same. How lame. I guess my mom told her what I said and she felt like a shithead and they made peace right away. I think just being the only guy in the family, and being very level headed helped. When my mom told me they made up she might as well have told me I had the juice now.

Look up Jett and Jagger Eaton, Tom Scharr, Minna Stess, Brighton Zeuner, and the list goes on. FUCK. Possible child abuse, WineCoolersinthePriusGate, from Bob Burnquist 🤯 , the X Games, the Berrics, Woodward and many more industry heads are all involved. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. The only way to stop this is put a LEGAL AGE RESTRICTION on skateboards in 2020, in the United States of America, create serious legal fines and LAWS for underage skating, and skate parks must be closely monitored by life gaurds and CERTIFIED parental supervisors. FUCK. SERIOUS BUSINESS. THERES TOO MANY GROMMETS GETTING GNARLY. FUUUUUUUUUU WE NEED A GROMMET VERSION OF ICE IN SKATEBOARDING ASAP. LOCK THEM UP. NO GNAR GNAR FOR YOU. amen 🙈🤮

Only school shooter band and drama kids with ball bearing necklaces and mervyns vans listened to korn when I was in high school. I graduated in 2000. When that unplugged album came out, my ex picked it up. Made my question our relationship... apparently she was a “buscuiteer” too.

Then the next time you or someone else sees this shit take a video of it and upload to YouTube and IG.  Expose this guy if he's actually abusive. Hearsay is one thing but actual video evidence is another.

I used to watch this movie Surf's up with my sister. The goon Penguin was named the tank.

I love that cartoon. Good times around that era.

My sister is the shit. She became punk because I let it happen organically. Its ingrained in our DNA.

The tank should get his dad to take him up north leave him with um stucky or Ben Gore for a few years.

Ditch the helmet forget the big rails skate the hills and alleys.

Get the kid on a very ramp immediately too

My friend Dave got a promo tape. He brought it to the spot.

We listened to like a ton of like The Descendants The exploited some pop stuff like the first tool release the first rage in down set San black church dys....

He put the tape in. There was like 20 kids all dead silent.

The song with all the crying was the choice for dave. Not the best idea.

Dave was my foster brother but he started hooking up with my aunt Sally lol. So we left him there when we moved out. So I could really base on him. Make him cry like my brother because he was my brother. Everyone looks at me knowing I'm about to smash ego as I cross the room.
I hit the stop button pop and focus the tape and i yelled 

mommy why and everyone in the house started crying mommy why and rolling on the floor.

Dave grabbed his stuff and ran home to aunty Sally the tattooed lady.

Looks like the kid takes a lot of those big landings awkwardly wrong on the knees.  Hope he doesn’t get injured before he even gets started.

i don't think they're clowning the kid's style, i think they are questioning whether his body is really built for that kind of abuse yet.

This is all pretty fucked up that this is ok. Basically this kid is jumping off of what is as high as a two story window to concrete so his dad can have bragging rights. Fuck traes dad for trying to force his kid to be successful because he wasn’t.

Nigel: So Trae - what was the scariest thing about trying to ollie Rincon?

Trae: Me clipping.

Nigel: You clipping?

Trae: Yeah. And that actually did happen.

Nigel: Alright Trae - so when you tried Rincon - that was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. But I did see in the comments that a lot of people think that your dad forces you to do it. And I was there. I know your dad doesn't force you to do anything...But we were all about to leave, and me and my filmer actually got outside the gate, and then they didn't come. And I was like, "Wait, where are they?" So I called, and Trae's dad was like, "Hey - he's trying it again! He's trying it again! He just already tried it once." So we rush back in, and Trae decided to want to try it again after we started to leave. He's like - what'd you say?

Trae: I said, "I'm just gonna get this. I don't care if I fall or hurt myself." I just wanted to get it.

Nigel: And then after that first slam too, like, you weren't even, like, hurt. So - it looks gnarly. It does. I'm gonna admit that.

Trae: It did hurt, but not enough for me to stop trying it.

Nigel: 'Cus you just wanted to get it that bad, right?

Trae: Mmhmm.

Nigel: So these haters - they just don't understand how tough this guy really is. He's a freaking tank. Trae "The Tank." Handlin' biz bro. And if a kid is really hurt - we know when they're hurt, and we're gonna have them stop. Any skater. Period. I don't like seeing anyone skate hurt or get hurt. So - but if a skater wants to try something and we have faith in their abilities, we're gonna let 'em try. Got that Trae?

Trae: Yeah.

I’m only being a contrarian and bored. But when I was 10 I used to jump off my garage roof (that was a normal 9-10ft drop) for fun and land straight legged. When it came to skating I didn’t develop any technical abilities til I was in my late teens so I never tried jumping off stuff or anything that wasn’t in my comfort zone. This kid seems like he has talent and I’m not saying the dad isn’t influencing him into some shit, but I’d be hard pressed this kid isn’t also along for the ride as well. Kids a skate rat albeit not my favorite type and he’s just gonna be an Instagram skater but whatever. If anyone has actual proof the dad is beating him speak up but just from what I see. Jock dad and kid who Ollies big gaps.

 I see the one kid devin Flynn in philly a lot and he’s on the little grom Santa cruise team his dad brings him everywhere and he does 540s in the 8ft  bowl. I think he’s 11. Anyways little kids skate and some little kids are pretty fucking good.


I’m just drunk and feel like arguing ha.

Should DM his sponsors tell them to stop encouraging this
[close]

I'm becoming that guy but I actually did DM Andrew Cannon to get his opinion on this when I first saw the thread. No response so far. I like Andrew, he seems levelheaded so I'd like to hear his thoughts.

It reminds me of John Cardiel's Epicly Laterd, where Phelps tells a story about how John's dad was an ex-Marine I believe, and made John jump off a 70-foot bridge or something when he was seven or eight. Obviously it's water instead of concrete, and it's not skateboarding, but in my opinion it's still not the right way to raise a child. Not talking badly about Cardiel's family, I just don't agree with that.

Furthermore, it also reminds me of a PhD candidate who wanted to make her kids "strong" so she would show them horror movies...her kids were 5-8 years old. These backwards-ass misconceptions of parenting continue to be used. I don't get it.

I let my son do things he wants to do and try to avoid pushing him. I don’t get the point in trying to show your kids how hard the world is going to be- they’ll find out on their own and there’s no real way to prepare for the hardest things in life.

Got a response from Cannon yesterday saying that they're looking into it. He also apologized about the late response. He's a good man in my books.

Like the dumb Korn bull shit wasn't back peddling enough. I followed the kid for a few days, watched his stories, then unfollowed. So much commotion and no adulting whatsoever. "I've seen him at the park, harassing his son." Well do something about it homie. "Nah dog, I'll talk shit on slap instead." Typical peter pan air head bullshit.

Props to the person above about jumping off high shit when you're a kid. Thanks for the reminder I used to climb. 👍

But in all honesty I'm curious what the medical impact is on these pre-puberty kids hucking off big sets from the mouth of a doctor. Maybe like that skate doctor in LA everyone see's. It would be cool to hear his take.

Seriously though, buying a stolen bike of of a homeless man and trying to pass it off as helping both you son and the homeless man is a bad look. Be honest with yourself and your kid.
Relax man. A bike being stolen is a part of the bikes life cycle. Single father doesn’t need to be spending $1000 on a new bike for some kid that shreds on a skateboard. Also it teaches him a bit about life, don’t leave your bike outside or that guy will be here selling it.

I’m just so confused by all this. People freaking about him clipping on Rincon. Do you guys not have young kids that skate in your area? I’ve watched kids with zero ability huck themselves down the biggest shit at the skatepark with no parental supervision. It’s clear that this kid is REALLY FUCKING GOOD, he front smithed the new Santa Monica rail, you do know to front smith a down rail you need some sort of skills and a huge set of a balls right?

Then you got people getting upset he’s filming his kid. I’d be so proud of my son for skating like this, of course I’m going to show off. What I wouldn’t do is make an Instagram for 9 year old, or a cat/dog, newborn baby that does fucking nothing, like so many people do.

It’s actually not legit, shows his immaturity for sure...I lived close to SF my whole life and in 92 was introduced to the problem by my middle school teacher (very cool dude who also lived in his car). 

But yes homeless people are always sick and hungry and not clean and aren’t doing well mentally either...so to assume because they are out on the streets that you should too, to skate, is completely fucked up way to see this pandemic

Seems like some of the parents have a hard time giving up running their kid’s Instagram. I’ve met plenty of skate dads and the good ones know to stay out of the way and support from a distance. The bad ones try to live vicariously through their kids.

There’s one young kid that recently turned pro, and I’m convinced his dad still writes Father’s Day posts about himself.

If I'm wrong please tell me, but I'd say that the reason it's not widely spread amongst homeless people is that A) homeless people don't travel to other countries and don't usually fraternize with people who do and B) they aren't usually frequenting enclosed public spaces. And that's assuming that homeless people aren't getting affected; maybe they are.

also since when did homeless people go to doctors for flu symptoms? statistics are based on tests administered, that’s a population not being tested, obviously. it’s a 9 year old’s logic, but also very obviously the total lack of awareness of some roidhead nonce.

Why is his dad training him to skate like its 2005? We already had a Trainwreck and a Ben Gilley. Learn some switch, Trea.

Edit: at least switch front board. But he needs to look more rugged to be a heshdawg.

It may make me a bad person, but when he rode the rail using the front of his body, I laughed. A lot.

i mean it was pretty comical. it looked like a cheesy practical effect from a B-movie, like he could had wires attached to him guiding him down the rail and the goofy yell made it even more funny.

"Trae "The Tank" Montgomerys father is staying the night in the drunk tank after recent accusations of robbery of a neighbor's bicycle."
they don’t call his dad “mad dog” Montgomery for nothing. And damn right that’s how it’s done when you get accused of stealing a kids bike get all fucking mad and yell at the kid for messing with your child”(real shit I live a town over from the tank and that shit happened to me in elementary school)

am i the only one that thinks it's odd that the interview was with his dad and not with the kid himself?

I feel like this is just encouraging towards all of the rad dads which is a bummer. They could have at least interviewed the kid and his dad or have the dad interview the kid, idk but this seems whack as fuck imo

Also kinda odd that the dad mentions that his parents kept him from doing what he wanted as a kid by forcing him into sports, but this seems to be the same behavior he pushes on his kid with skateboarding from what i've seen of them in person

Abused children tend to grow up to be abusive parents.

As for the father's Thrasher interview. It seems like most of these responses on IG are coming from him. Maybe that is obvious to everyone else and I'm more of an idiot than I care to admit. Draw your own conclusions.

Either way, I try to check in with youtube's trending videos tabs every few days. There are at least 4 "Youtube Families" posting "We're pregnant/having a kid" videos. Again, it should be obvious, but these sociopathic parents are going to raise children with a camera in their face from the moment they're born. It could be argued that (considering the fact all these "Families" are having kids at the same time) they are breeding for the sole purpose of building their "brand".

An aside, MTV wanted Bam to have a kid for Unholy Union and he was so disgusted by this idea suggested by the producers he quit. Or, gave up. The idea his moral code is stronger than these ultra-conservative, religious, youtubers is saying something.

That's what happens when you take someone to only famous spots and they have a limited bag of tricks like every other grom. Not talking shit on the kid's ability, that's just to be expected with most little kids and their bag of tricks.

Dad probably has no clue what an ABD even is

Lets see if Trae does Bachinsky's ABD at El Toro when the day comes that his dad makes him jump down that monstrous set of stairs

When the law finally catches up with online privacy there'll be strict laws about this sort of thing I'd imagine. Kinda fucked up that young kids have no choice over what content of them appears on the internet as their parents document them growing up. Also so weird how now the first thing parents do when they have a kid is post a picture of them online

the fake Jamaican is right (with the exception of calling nyjah an impostor, that makes no sense).  this kid's skating, and frankly the other major "kid skaters" feel like a polished knock off of actual skateboarding from 5 years ago. his part sits like a christian label ska band.

Also cut this shit with the "this is what they want to do" argument.  when i was 9 i wanted to chop a shot bullet in half with a samurai sword... but thats a stupid thing for a 9 year old to try and my parents were smart enough to prevent me from putting myself in danger.  having a 9 year old pop down massive gaps or skate full size half pipes is fucking dumb. i don't care how much talent they have. i dont care how many insta likes they get. long term risk for short term gains is rarely a good idea.  i have as much respect for this kid as i do any other 9 year old, but i don't respect the person exploiting him and dubbing their voice over a child's talents.

Haha that’s funny i used to skate there once or twice a week and got a job at atomic garage skate shop that was across from the park entrance...met Sean penn and robin Wright there one day ...when they were married and their kids skate...

i just want to see all of the rad dads square up with each other over who's child is a better skateboarder. Rad dads are the absolute worst

i remember seeing some dad get annoyed at my local when his kid missed a boardslide on a 10 stair rail during a contest and heard the dad say "if i skated, i could do that". Mans was wearing cargo shorts and flip flops and looked like he could barely ride a bike. he also resembled a taller version of big ed

if he keeps doing drops like this, i will seriously be suprised if he's able to walk at 40 years old.

Should DM his sponsors tell them to stop encouraging this
[close]

I'm becoming that guy but I actually did DM Andrew Cannon to get his opinion on this when I first saw the thread. No response so far. I like Andrew, he seems levelheaded so I'd like to hear his thoughts.

It reminds me of John Cardiel's Epicly Laterd, where Phelps tells a story about how John's dad was an ex-Marine I believe, and made John jump off a 70-foot bridge or something when he was seven or eight. Obviously it's water instead of concrete, and it's not skateboarding, but in my opinion it's still not the right way to raise a child. Not talking badly about Cardiel's family, I just don't agree with that.

Furthermore, it also reminds me of a PhD candidate who wanted to make her kids "strong" so she would show them horror movies...her kids were 5-8 years old. These backwards-ass misconceptions of parenting continue to be used. I don't get it.
It worked for GG Allin so...

I'd have to agree. He obviously just asks friends where local famous spots are, but probably doesn't know jack about skate history in the long run. I feel like a better understanding of how skateboarding works might result in a different approach, ie: not going to blown out spots to do an ollie - but I'm genuinely curious to see how this plays out with their current trajectory. I sincerely believe Trae will have major knee/hip issues when he's still young. Anyone know if he's had any serious injuries?

Not sure how this stuff works in the US but shit... The Dad deserves to go bankrupt over his son's medical bills tbh.

I don't have any kids or anything but after having a childhood of trying to impress an uninterested dad I do feel for the kid, this is all he knows. I think he probably does like skating and want to do it but I also think his general idea of why he enjoys it might be terribly skewed. Putting mental and physical stress on this child for what? Investment? Self-gratification? Living vicariously?

Anyway I don't personally know anyone involved, only read the stuff on this thread, so I might just not know the real scope.

What's even worse is the horde of nonces commenting on every video like, "Wow you are so perfect, I see you grow every day!" Check any profile from the fuckers that leave those comments. Grown ass men with pages on pages of creepy selfies.

If his dad gave at least half a shit (which he obviously doesn't) he would shut this page the fuck down - all skateboarding aside - because it's a fucking night club for groomers. Disgusting shit. The dad should be ashamed of himself.

Look up the dad, he's a roided out semi-pro (semi-racist) baseball has-been. He's obviously living his desire for a professional sports career through his kid. Also, he's from a super upper-middle class family, so I'd surmise he has good enough connections to avoid having people look in on him.

That interview he did (even though it was on Trae and not him) for Thrasher probably gave him the thrill of making it.

IMO I think the dad believes that the kid will heal from his injuries ( dubious) and the whole juxtaposition of small child big obstacle is truly groundbreaking. It is like a side show circus act but with less comedy and more child abuse.  . He has turned his kid into a gimmick which will harm whatever career he has left ( image wise and health wise). Definitely not kosher to say the least.

why would you want your kid to be really good at big gaps... poor kids gonna be on crutches/wheelchair by the time hes 40

It’s not even translatable into an Olympics skill, which I’d assume would be the whole point

Jaws' dad is a bit like Trae's dad but with more concern for his son's safety, I gather.

The skate conspiracy that you won't be able to walk at an older age because of jumping down stuff when your a pre-teen is not true. It's actually better to do that shit at that age. If a kid broke a growth plate then there would be problems.

Clearly you don't know many skaters who tried to come up going big. I know too many to count who don't even skate anymore because they blew their knees out.

Damn that's cool, while you're at it would you like to pay for my disc realignment surgery?

Seriously that shit is bad for anyone, let alone a kid who's being hounded by his own dad to destroy his body... for vicarious fulfillment?

I don't know a single skater my age who's stoked on having spent their teens jumping down gaps. I'm fucked, but I got lucky. Most of my old friends pop pills and can't stop drinking. Gotta stunt the pain somehow :-[

Fuck "The Bible" (gag) for endorsing this abusive shit, fuck all the skate co's scavenging for instagram clout, and fuck this bat-dad kook most of all.

Yup clowns I know many that have blown out their knees and torn ACL, MCL, twice on both knees, rehabilitated and are ripping now.

You are claiming that 5-12 year olds jumping down 10 stairs will end up in a wheelchair and claiming that's child abuse are fucking major kooks.

Also claiming that today's pros didn't hit big gaps when they were pre-teens and need assistance walking is major bullshit. There is not one pro in the history of pro skating walking with a cane because of a pre-teen stair set or gap injury. That would mean they went through their whole pro career using a fucking cane and could say it came from this specific session when I was 7 ollieing a 10 stair lmao.

Ask a medical expert about pre-teens and their bones, unless you are scared to.

I'm telling you straight up my friend, I know former pros and many other skaters who can't skate anymore because they focussed on doing big shit when they were younger. You seem to be really hung up on the age when injuries happen, while I'm talking about the long term effects of this type of skating in general. Trae seems to be into huge drops. If he continues on that path for much longer, he will be feeling it for the rest of his life, trust me. I barely fucked with gaps and rails and at 43 my body is a painful wreck, but I can still skate because I kept it more low impact most of the time.

But yeah - hit us with links to these rippers who blew both knees twice and are still ripping on the same level. Love to see it. That's inspiring. Something tells me you made that up though.

Matt Montgomery is a piece of shit

I worked at the Etnies Skatepark in Lake Forest for the last 5 years and this dude would bring his kid to the park and force him to skate the biggest obstacles. He would push Trae to the brink of tears to skate the 11 stair.

Trae skated in our contest and got 4th place and Matt confronted us in the office about it.
He yelled in our faces about how his kid should have won.

His wife told us "We have 30 thousand followers, you guys are done"

Fuck that dude.

I feel bad for the kid, who knows what he goes through behind closed doors.

Ive definitely seen this happen in person at the park. Regardless of whatever his dad said in the interview, the dynamic between him and his kid is significantly worse in person

Damn dude you're a headache...You are acknowledging I'm specifically talking about a certain age range when you're being general about big gap skating. There is no need to argue when talking about two different things, and you know we are?!? Jeeze.

It is cringy as fuck to watch a 6 year old scorpion down a 15 stair, so I reached out to someone in children medicine. Once I learned it's not as big of a deal as slap makes it out to be, it's no big deal to watch the footy now, for me. I've got little huckers in my area so I was definitely curious instead of jumping to the conclusion without any medical advice.

I also don't argue pounding my chest like you weirdos. So if you want to debate and not argue like a jock asshole, present some medical info on children skating high impact terrain. I'm told if they break a growth plate there will be problems, otherwise it's better at that age than when you're older. But if there's medical advice to wait to hit massive shit til you're x years old because of your bones then I'm interested. If it's just they gotta wait til they're more well rounded skaters then this debate is corny as fuck lol. I'm not scouting any fucking 9 year olds lmao.

As for the thread, I'm not that interested in Trae's skating compared to the rest of y'all. But I guess I would like people to understand in general groms hitting big gaps or ramps is no big deal other than amazing how young they are.

I'm having a brain fart on pros/ams who came back from knee surgery. That would be a good thread. I also can't think of anyone personally that absolutely can't skateboard after years of skating and injuries. Which I'm completely fine with your experience in life with "who you know" is different than mine lol.

the arguement about gaps being damaging is kinda stupid - like, obviously jumping down big shit repeatedly isnt gonna be great for you long term BUT its not as bad as some people are making out. this kid is most likely not gonna be in a wheelchair when he is 40 - look at Jaws hes 30 now and still doing stupidly high drops.

Jamie Thomas, Andrew Reynolds, Rowley .. plenty skaters who were integral to the stair/rail era who are still skating at a high level

I think a lot of it comes down to luck (or possibly genetics) - I have a freind who is the same age as me - he never skated, or really did anything that would be considered physically damaging yet he is fucked, he complains about knee pain like a retired carpet fitter - some peoples bodies are just less sturdy than others, its pot luck imo

Is it likely to leave him long-term crippled, probably not. Although, are we just going to ignore the major possibility of head injuries skating stuff like this. Even with a helmet, that just stops you from breaking your skull, you can still get significant concussions.

Secondly, how many of these legendary skaters parents were pushing them to jump down these things in the name of fame, money and Instagram followers. That is abhorrent behavior by a parent. That's way past the line of supporting your kid's interests. Supporting your kids interests is driving them to the skate park, building them a mini-ramp or a fun-box. Not pushing them to film a clip like Jamie Thomas does to Zero riders.

Mike York!! Remember Hot Chocolate tour? His knee brace? He's not in a wheelchair. He's probably out skating right now. I'll try and think of more pros...not naming personal friends that's too easy. I like the puzzle/brain challenge of trying to remember.

There's got to be more recoveries than that, but I'm not sure. Eldy, Kelly, and Crob had injuries and have dropped new clips since their injuries. Kelly was out for a while then fakie tre flipped up the stage to fakie manual. I wonder if Andrew Reynolds or Jeremy Wray hit big gaps in their pre-teens, or went through any knee injuries? Same with Alphonzo Rawls. Probably not? Because their careers would have been cut way short (sarc.). Maybe it's in their Epicly Later'd. That's a trip Diego the Butcher just had that shared part drop a year or two ago, and he's still got it after years of skating big shit. But maybe these recent years are the first time in life when 8 year olds hit big gaps (sarc.)?

Damn just remembered Cale Nuske...hella knee problems. Not in a wheelchair:
https://www.instagram.com/p/CFCRbKfl-YJ/?igshid=1aq28n4ese76x

Also pretty sure Arto fucked up his knee on that nollie bail in Really Sorry and came back for Mindfield. Arto is not in a wheelchair today. Actually didn't Arto start late in skateboarding? Maybe that wasn't good for his knee in the long run. Maybe if you start younger you'll have more stamina. Speaking of Flip, in a jenkem interview Rowley admits to having knee surgery on both knees and he's not in a wheelchair, but I have a feeling he hucked as a grom? Hmmmm I wonder... Might binge on some Epicly Later'd in November if they're still on youtube.

Mike York!! Remember Hot Chocolate tour? His knee brace? He's not in a wheelchair. He's probably out skating right now. I'll try and think of more pros...not naming personal friends that's too easy. I like the puzzle/brain challenge of trying to remember.

There's got to be more recoveries than that, but I'm not sure. Eldy, Kelly, and Crob had injuries and have dropped new clips since their injuries. Kelly was out for a while then fakie tre flipped up the stage to fakie manual. I wonder if Andrew Reynolds or Jeremy Wray hit big gaps in their pre-teens, or went through any knee injuries? Same with Alphonzo Rawls. Probably not? Because their careers would have been cut way short (sarc.). Maybe it's in their Epicly Later'd. That's a trip Diego the Butcher just had that shared part drop a year or two ago, and he's still got it after years of skating big shit. But maybe these recent years are the first time in life when 8 year olds hit big gaps (sarc.)?

Damn just remembered Cale Nuske...hella knee problems. Not in a wheelchair:

Also pretty sure Arto fucked up his knee on that nollie bail in Really Sorry and came back for Mindfield. Arto is not in a wheelchair today. Actually didn't Arto start late in skateboarding? Maybe that wasn't good for his knee in the long run. Maybe if you start younger you'll have more stamina. Speaking of Flip, in a jenkem interview Rowley admits to having knee surgery on both knees and he's not in a wheelchair, but I have a feeling he hucked as a grom? Hmmmm I wonder... Might binge on some Epicly Later'd in November if they're still on youtube.

Yup clowns I know many that have blown out their knees and torn ACL, MCL, twice on both knees, rehabilitated and are ripping now.

You are claiming that 5-12 year olds jumping down 10 stairs will end up in a wheelchair and claiming that's child abuse are fucking major kooks.

Also claiming that today's pros didn't hit big gaps when they were pre-teens and need assistance walking is major bullshit. There is not one pro in the history of pro skating walking with a cane because of a pre-teen stair set or gap injury. That would mean they went through their whole pro career using a fucking cane and could say it came from this specific session when I was 7 ollieing a 10 stair lmao.

Ask a medical expert about pre-teens and their bones, unless you are scared to.

Are you 15? Lol.

I'm telling you straight up my friend, I know former pros and many other skaters who can't skate anymore because they focussed on doing big shit when they were younger. You seem to be really hung up on the age when injuries happen, while I'm talking about the long term effects of this type of skating in general. Trae seems to be into huge drops. If he continues on that path for much longer, he will be feeling it for the rest of his life, trust me. I barely fucked with gaps and rails and at 43 my body is a painful wreck, but I can still skate because I kept it more low impact most of the time.

But yeah - hit us with links to these rippers who blew both knees twice and are still ripping on the same level. Love to see it. That's inspiring. Something tells me you made that up though.

So yeah, the 'I know multiple people who have blown both knees twice and still rip' was made up, glad that's been cleared up.

And just to be clear on my end of things - I'm not even saying that someone who blew both knees twice won't be able to keep skating. I'm just saying blowing your knees in the first place is not a good thing, and no matter if you keep skating or not, arthritis is real and the majority of skaters who tear MCL's and ACL's end up cutting down on skating because of it.

I was not the one saying people are going to be in a wheelchair the rest of their life, and I believe the posters who said that weren't being literal. It's a way of saying 'I think this kid who loves big gaps and doesn't seem to take the landings well might be in rough shape later in life'. Everyone is different. I know plenty of people who had serious injuries like blown knees who still skate amazing. No one is saying you can't skate if you tear your knee or suffer some other serious injury. We're showing concern for a little dude who is taking a heavy gamble for his age/skill level - many posters are concerned about the part the dad plays (I'm trying not to focus on that too much since I don't know them) - and many of us are giving feedback from years and years of experience in skateboarding on what the long term effects of heavy impact skating/serious injuries are. Maybe you've been really lucky and haven't had any serious injuries yourself, or you're still so
young that you haven't started to feel the long term pain yet - but trust us, it's real.

I also never said he should stop doing what he's doing. Simply making observations on his technique and discussing injuries.

Edit: Were you around when Cale Nuske was in his prime? You remember seeing him skate any rails and gaps since? Kinda proving our point by showing clips of a guy who used to primarily hit rails and gaps, and isn't very old, and now he skates very low impact. His career ended when he got hurt. If that's not proving our point I don't know what is. If the injury was no big deal, why did his career end? You also used Arto as an example - well guess what? The main reason you stopped seeing coverage from him was... dun dun dun, INJURY. He transitioned into focussing more on photography because he couldn't skate like he used too. You gotta be young or something, really, Watido.

Matt Montgomery is a piece of shit

I worked at the Etnies Skatepark in Lake Forest for the last 5 years and this dude would bring his kid to the park and force him to skate the biggest obstacles. He would push Trae to the brink of tears to skate the 11 stair.

Trae skated in our contest and got 4th place and Matt confronted us in the office about it.
He yelled in our faces about how his kid should have won.

His wife told us "We have 30 thousand followers, you guys are done"

Fuck that dude.

You said "can't skate anymore," and I disagree and gave examples of people skating. What the fuck you keep gaslighting me over what skaters I know, hella dumb.

Even Cardiel got an ad of a front 5-0 and Boulala got on a board at the end of his Vice interview, so whatever, you're wrong. People can still skate, there's growing evidence you can skate well into your 40's, 50's, and 60's.

I'm telling you straight up my friend, I know former pros and many other skaterswho can't skate anymore because they focussed on doing big shit when they were younger.

I'm replying to your statement of "CANT SKATE ANYMORE." Now you're saying they can't skate the way they used to? LMAO...no kidding? No one can do anything like they used to, people get old. You said "can't skate anymore," and I disagree and gave examples of people skating. What the fuck you keep gaslighting me over what skaters I know, hella dumb.

Even Cardiel got an ad of a front 5-0 and Boulala got on a board at the end of his Vice interview, so whatever, you're wrong. People can still skate, there's growing evidence you can skate well into your 40's, 50's, and 60's.

Edit: Also this is a 20+ page thread giving medical advice based on style which is insanely stupid. If it wasn't such a dorky kid with a toxic father you guys would be like he's going to have the best career! LOL

i ve had 9 knee surgeries in total all on the same knee...2 real big ones 3 big ones and the rest cleanups and the like... but i ve been without acl and mcl for almost a decade... first blew it out in 95 when i was 17...

i m still skating and learning new tricks though- i also gotta say people especially doctors want to put it in your mind that you can t skate anymore... my experience is that the body adapts to anything if you put it in the situation and invest the time

I think the 9 knee surgeries should tell you your body isn’t adapting too well

Yeah, you take things too literally so there's not much point in discussing this with you. If you think Cardiel and Boulala are "still skating", then you truly don't understand what I'm talking about. I'm not even sure what you're trying to argue. What I and other posters are saying is this particular kid lands in a fucked up way and is probably in for some long term pain - do you disagree?

Yeah man I consider Doggface208 a legit skater and legit skating...So Cards and Boulala are too, so is anyone who is riding a skateboard and if you think I'm a loser who deserves hatred and bullying for my opinion then so be it.

It's common sense the older you get the longer your recovery time is. Anyways you guys got me fucked up blaming me about being specific when this whole thread is hella specific...should 9 year old tre WAIT til he's older to go big, or is it ok to do it NOW? That's the question. I'm not feeling tre's steeze so I'm being general in responding that all groms going big is not as dangerous as you think comparing to waiting til they're older. Right? Isn't that the argument? Is there a better age to go big? All I'm saying is that groms in general, across the world, fuck orange county, going big is no way as lethal with life long handicaps as slap makes it out to be.

I would not doubt in my mind the opposite of what I'm saying which sadly would be a horror story. Like a 6 year old ollieing a 10 stair, slips and their knee bone breaks through their skin and the bone shoots through the knee pads with blood everywhere and they have to get their leg amputated at the knee.

Yup clowns I know many that have blown out their knees and torn ACL, MCL, twice on both knees, rehabilitated and are ripping now.

You are claiming that 5-12 year olds jumping down 10 stairs will end up in a wheelchair and claiming that's child abuse are fucking major kooks.

Also claiming that today's pros didn't hit big gaps when they were pre-teens and need assistance walking is major bullshit. There is not one pro in the history of pro skating walking with a cane because of a pre-teen stair set or gap injury. That would mean they went through their whole pro career using a fucking cane and could say it came from this specific session when I was 7 ollieing a 10 stair lmao.

Ask a medical expert about pre-teens and their bones, unless you are scared to.

I'm telling you straight up my friend, I know former pros and many other skaters who can't skate anymore because they focussed on doing big shit when they were younger. You seem to be really hung up on the age when injuries happen, while I'm talking about the long term effects of this type of skating in general. Trae seems to be into huge drops. If he continues on that path for much longer, he will be feeling it for the rest of his life, trust me. I barely fucked with gaps and rails and at 43 my body is a painful wreck, but I can still skate because I kept it more low impact most of the time.

But yeah - hit us with links to these rippers who blew both knees twice and are still ripping on the same level. Love to see it. That's inspiring. Something tells me you made that up though.
[close]

Damn dude you're a headache...You are acknowledging I'm specifically talking about a certain age range when you're being general about big gap skating. There is no need to argue when talking about two different things, and you know we are?!? Jeeze.

I'm having a brain fart on pros/ams who came back from knee surgery.  I also can't think of anyone personally that absolutely can't skateboard after years of skating and injuries. Which I'm completely fine with your experience in life with "who you know" is different than mine lol.

I knew you made that shit up.  ;D

Mike York!! Remember Hot Chocolate tour? His knee brace? He's not in a wheelchair. He's probably out skating right now. I'll try and think of more pros...not naming personal friends that's too easy. I like the puzzle/brain challenge of trying to remember.

There's got to be more recoveries than that, but I'm not sure. Eldy, Kelly, and Crob had injuries and have dropped new clips since their injuries. Kelly was out for a while then fakie tre flipped up the stage to fakie manual. I wonder if Andrew Reynolds or Jeremy Wray hit big gaps in their pre-teens, or went through any knee injuries? Same with Alphonzo Rawls. Probably not? Because their careers would have been cut way short (sarc.). Maybe it's in their Epicly Later'd. That's a trip Diego the Butcher just had that shared part drop a year or two ago, and he's still got it after years of skating big shit. But maybe these recent years are the first time in life when 8 year olds hit big gaps (sarc.)?

Damn just remembered Cale Nuske...hella knee problems. Not in a wheelchair:
https://www.instagram.com/p/CFCRbKfl-YJ/?igshid=1aq28n4ese76x

Also pretty sure Arto fucked up his knee on that nollie bail in Really Sorry and came back for Mindfield. Arto is not in a wheelchair today. Actually didn't Arto start late in skateboarding? Maybe that wasn't good for his knee in the long run. Maybe if you start younger you'll have more stamina. Speaking of Flip, in a jenkem interview Rowley admits to having knee surgery on both knees and he's not in a wheelchair, but I have a feeling he hucked as a grom? Hmmmm I wonder... Might binge on some Epicly Later'd in November if they're still on youtube.

So yeah, the 'I know multiple people who have blown both knees twice and still rip' was made up, glad that's been cleared up.

And just to be clear on my end of things - I'm not even saying that someone who blew both knees twice won't be able to keep skating. I'm just saying blowing your knees in the first place is not a good thing, and no matter if you keep skating or not, arthritis is real and the majority of skaters who tear MCL's and ACL's end up cutting down on skating because of it.

I was not the one saying people are going to be in a wheelchair the rest of their life, and I believe the posters who said that weren't being literal. It's a way of saying 'I think this kid who loves big gaps and doesn't seem to take the landings well might be in rough shape later in life'. Everyone is different. I know plenty of people who had serious injuries like blown knees who still skate amazing. No one is saying you can't skate if you tear your knee or suffer some other serious injury. We're showing concern for a little dude who is taking a heavy gamble for his age/skill level - many posters are concerned about the part the dad plays (I'm trying not to focus on that too much since I don't know them) - and many of us are giving feedback from years and years of experience in skateboarding on what the long term effects of heavy impact skating/serious injuries are. Maybe you've been really lucky and haven't had any serious injuries yourself, or you're still so
young that you haven't started to feel the long term pain yet - but trust us, it's real.

I also never said he should stop doing what he's doing. Simply making observations on his technique and discussing injuries.

Edit: Were you around when Cale Nuske was in his prime? You remember seeing him skate any rails and gaps since? Kinda proving our point by showing clips of a guy who used to primarily hit rails and gaps, and isn't very old, and now he skates very low impact. His career ended when he got hurt. If that's not proving our point I don't know what is. If the injury was no big deal, why did his career end? You also used Arto as an example - well guess what? The main reason you stopped seeing coverage from him was... dun dun dun, INJURY. He transitioned into focussing more on photography because he couldn't skate like he used too. You gotta be young or something, really, Watido.

All good. My point was not about going big young vs old, my point was about the long term effects of high impact skating at any age, and with Trae specifically, I’m talking about his technique which does not appear to be the proper way to take impact. Not trying to hate on you or bully you, c’mon.
I have a little thread going on a different platform regarding this query and there’s a lot of guys regretting the high impact stuff because they’re hurting now. Sheldon Meleshinski was one of the more notable guys who said his career was cut short by a knee injury, but I already knew that. Same with Hastie, and lots of others. Both of those guys can still do low impact skating but their careers ended due to injury, specifically. Lots of friends chiming in saying they regret the high impact stuff. I know at least two guys off the top of my head who would have been big if knee injuries hadn’t cut their chances short - Ben Demoskoff and Dave Miskowicz.  Remember Josh Kasper? Injury ended his ability to keep skating at a pro level. 
I guess we’re just talking about different things. I’m not the guy claiming people are going to be in wheelchairs. I’m just agreeing with those who are saying this kid might be taking more risk than necessary by doing basic shit down giant gaps that have had much harder stuff done them already, you know? Like, why risk a major injury that could change your life to do other people’s warm up tricks on blown out spots? And for the long term, there’s a good chance he won’t have a long career if he keeps hucking, and he may end up with life long pain from it.

Cool man you're way more invested in this than me. So what do you guys conclude about Reynolds and others skating high impact at 40? Just an exception? You think Nyjah will slow down in a year or two, or has another 10?

I'm curious on a timeline of legend's high impact skating in their lifetime vs pros who's careers were cut short. Did the legends start skating high impact earlier, later, or at the same time? What made the legends have a longer life span of skating high impact than those who were cut short?

There could be a direct correlation to age, and it could be a better idea to start hucking at a younger age, obviously you gotta land your shit to progress. Or maybe not... maybe if you huck at 8 you're dust at 18...or maybe that's not true at all because we have all these veterans today skating high impact and they started at....I'm curious what age today's veteran high impact skaters started hucking at. If they all started going big around 14, I'd still find that interesting too. But maybe Heath started hitting big shit at 8...pretty sure it's in his Epicly Later'd.

First bolded part - Reynolds doesn’t skate high impact anymore, and also has not had a major injury that I’m aware of. So yes, somewhat of an exception. Hell, plenty of pros have commented on his unique ability to push his high impact skating longer than lots of others. Reynolds pretty much scaled it back after Stay Gold, which was 10 years ago. What pros who are 40 are skating high impact? Not saying they don’t exist, must be one or two... so let me know who you’re referring to.

Second part - every person is different. I’d say the people who escaped serious injury are obviously doing better than those who got broke off. Motivation plays a role too. Some guys are just down to skate through pain and keep risking it when others may take a serious injury as a sign to mellow out.  Some people straight up quit after a serious injury. It takes a lot of patience, strength and commitment to keep skating at the same level after a serious injury. That’s why it’s far more common for people to keep their skating mellow after one. The risk of re-injuring is high.

You crazy bastards are arguing over whether Andrew Reynolds or Geoff Rowley have sore knees when the real issue is this kid is being forced to huck.

Many first hand accounts and sus behavior on instagram suggest that he doesn't have the option to call it when he no longer feels comfortable trying a big gap. I'm thinkin the real root of the problem is that his injuries are the result of child abuse, not wanting to land big tricks...

He's gonna be hurt though, even if he was out there throwing himself down gaps while his dad begged him to stop. Anybody arguing that "your body will adapt" to repeatedly slamming it into concrete after jumping down a 20 stair should go out there and try it themselves.

It takes a lot of patience, strength and commitment to keep skating at the same level after a serious injury. That’s why it’s far more common for people to keep their skating mellow after one. The risk of re-injuring is high.

This. One mcl strain that put me out for a month or so was enough for me to realize that if I can't ollie up it, I'm not gonna ollie down it. The difference was my psycho dad wasn't there calling me a pussy and screaming at me to try it again.

And it was only 7 stairs, not 20  ;D

Yeah, you take things too literally so there's not much point in discussing this with you. If you think Cardiel and Boulala are "still skating", then you truly don't understand what I'm talking about. I'm not even sure what you're trying to argue. What I and other posters are saying is this particular kid lands in a fucked up way and is probably in for some long term pain - do you disagree?
[close]

Yeah man I consider Doggface208 a legit skater and legit skating...So Cards and Boulala are too, so is anyone who is riding a skateboard and if you think I'm a loser who deserves hatred and bullying for my opinion then so be it.

It's common sense the older you get the longer your recovery time is. Anyways you guys got me fucked up blaming me about being specific when this whole thread is hella specific...should 9 year old tre WAIT til he's older to go big, or is it ok to do it NOW? That's the question. I'm not feeling tre's steeze so I'm being general in responding that all groms going big is not as dangerous as you think comparing to waiting til they're older. Right? Isn't that the argument? Is there a better age to go big? All I'm saying is that groms in general, across the world, fuck orange county, going big is no way as lethal with life long handicaps as slap makes it out to be.

[close]

All good. My point was not about going big young vs old, my point was about the long term effects of high impact skating at any age, and with Trae specifically, I’m talking about his technique which does not appear to be the proper way to take impact. Not trying to hate on you or bully you, c’mon.
I have a little thread going on a different platform regarding this query and there’s a lot of guys regretting the high impact stuff because they’re hurting now. Sheldon Meleshinski was one of the more notable guys who said his career was cut short by a knee injury, but I already knew that. Same with Hastie, and lots of others. Both of those guys can still do low impact skating but their careers ended due to injury, specifically. Lots of friends chiming in saying they regret the high impact stuff. I know at least two guys off the top of my head who would have been big if knee injuries hadn’t cut their chances short - Ben Demoskoff and Dave Miskowicz.  Remember Josh Kasper? Injury ended his ability to keep skating at a pro level. 
I guess we’re just talking about different things. I’m not the guy claiming people are going to be in wheelchairs. I’m just agreeing with those who are saying this kid might be taking more risk than necessary by doing basic shit down giant gaps that have had much harder stuff done them already, you know? Like, why risk a major injury that could change your life to do other people’s warm up tricks on blown out spots? And for the long term, there’s a good chance he won’t have a long career if he keeps hucking, and he may end up with life long pain from it.
[close]

Cool man you're way more invested in this than me. So what do you guys conclude about Reynolds and others skating high impact at 40? Just an exception? You think Nyjah will slow down in a year or two, or has another 10?

I'm curious on a timeline of legend's high impact skating in their lifetime vs pros who's careers were cut short. Did the legends start skating high impact earlier, later, or at the same time? What made the legends have a longer life span of skating high impact than those who were cut short?

[close]

First bolded part - Reynolds doesn’t skate high impact anymore, and also has not had a major injury that I’m aware of. So yes, somewhat of an exception. Hell, plenty of pros have commented on his unique ability to push his high impact skating longer than lots of others. Reynolds pretty much scaled it back after Stay Gold, which was 10 years ago. What pros who are 40 are skating high impact? Not saying they don’t exist, must be one or two... so let me know who you’re referring to.

Second part - every person is different. I’d say the people who escaped serious injury are obviously doing better than those who got broke off. Motivation plays a role too. Some guys are just down to skate through pain and keep risking it when others may take a serious injury as a sign to mellow out.  Some people straight up quit after a serious injury.

Yup clowns I know many that have blown out their knees and torn ACL, MCL, twice on both knees, rehabilitated and are ripping now.

You are claiming that 5-12 year olds jumping down 10 stairs will end up in a wheelchair and claiming that's child abuse are fucking major kooks.

Also claiming that today's pros didn't hit big gaps when they were pre-teens and need assistance walking is major bullshit. There is not one pro in the history of pro skating walking with a cane because of a pre-teen stair set or gap injury. That would mean they went through their whole pro career using a fucking cane and could say it came from this specific session when I was 7 ollieing a 10 stair lmao.

Ask a medical expert about pre-teens and their bones, unless you are scared to.
[close]

Are you 15? Lol.

I'm telling you straight up my friend, I know former pros and many other skaters who can't skate anymore because they focussed on doing big shit when they were younger. You seem to be really hung up on the age when injuries happen, while I'm talking about the long term effects of this type of skating in general. Trae seems to be into huge drops. If he continues on that path for much longer, he will be feeling it for the rest of his life, trust me. I barely fucked with gaps and rails and at 43 my body is a painful wreck, but I can still skate because I kept it more low impact most of the time.

But yeah - hit us with links to these rippers who blew both knees twice and are still ripping on the same level. Love to see it. That's inspiring. Something tells me you made that up though.
[close]

Damn dude you're a headache...You are acknowledging I'm specifically talking about a certain age range when you're being general about big gap skating. There is no need to argue when talking about two different things, and you know we are?!? Jeeze.

It is cringy as fuck to watch a 6 year old scorpion down a 15 stair, so I reached out to someone in children medicine. Once I learned it's not as big of a deal as slap makes it out to be, it's no big deal to watch the footy now, for me. I've got little huckers in my area so I was definitely curious instead of jumping to the conclusion without any medical advice.

I also don't argue pounding my chest like you weirdos. So if you want to debate and not argue like a jock asshole, present some medical info on children skating high impact terrain. I'm told if they break a growth plate there will be problems, otherwise it's better at that age than when you're older. But if there's medical advice to wait to hit massive shit til you're x years old because of your bones then I'm interested. If it's just they gotta wait til they're more well rounded skaters then this debate is corny as fuck lol. I'm not scouting any fucking 9 year olds lmao.

As for the thread, I'm not that interested in Trae's skating compared to the rest of y'all. But I guess I would like people to understand in general groms hitting big gaps or ramps is no big deal other than amazing how young they are.

I'm having a brain fart on pros/ams who came back from knee surgery. That would be a good thread. I also can't think of anyone personally that absolutely can't skateboard after years of skating and injuries. Which I'm completely fine with your experience in life with "who you know" is different than mine lol.

Austyn had the double knee Surgery at the same time. DD as we know has had 6 total.

Trae's dad is the worst

How many well-adjusted 10-year-olds would land an ollie like this and quietly hop off their board and walk away? Everyone is cheering but him. I feel bad for the kid. Obviously he loves skating but too often it looks like he's skating for someone else and not for himself.

Seems as though our red headed stoner friend from Surry may have run out of steam on the Petty Fondler creep-o train; maybe he should switch to another track for a minute or two & put this dude’s “rad dad” on notice.
What do ya’ say, @Punished Skateboards? Justice will be pulling into the station on schedule if you’d only blow the whistle on an over zealous skate coach, and you may even save a child from a lifetime of physical suffering.

Haha fuck. That video ripping him his dad apart was fucking on point. I don’t know if that guy posts here but if so let us know. Very interested in hearing if his steroid baseball dad ever sends you some sort of fake email pretending to be a lawyer.

But yeah I have nothing to add that hasn’t been said. This kid does some crazy shit, I too have been skating longer than this little focker has been alive but I couldn’t skate those gaps or rails ever. He’s either gonna end up with a really fucked injury that stunts his growth and also leads him down the path of painkillers. Or he’ll make it to the point that he can legally ditch his dumbass dad like our boy Nigel.

Either way odds are by the time this kid has a rockstar energy sponsored SD mansion/ TF, Dinner will have overstayed his welcome in nyjahs basement. And ultimately become this kids hypeman. Sinners gonna be like 60 dropping 18 year olds off at all age parties behind Babylon LA and just driving around the corner sitting by himself waiting to pickup the faded homies. and then choosing to talk about doing that in an interview.

Fuck this kids dad fr tho.and for the record im rockin with sinners choice to be the creepy designated driver that lives in the basement. Honestly pretty funny

gymnastics is a trip cause you start to age out in your late teens

My second job in high school was gymnastics coach and it was crazy how many 6-8yr old girls were pushed to do difficult routines...and the team girls were all 10-12yr olds ...none of them looked like they enjoyed it

I dunno, kinda reminds me of those gymnast girls thinking they'll be olympians and waste their childhood years learning how to be like "adults"

someone said something interesting that a lot of those mickey mouse club kids fronted as if they were wholesome, when in reality they were doing crazy drugs and lived and most never became role models for future kids.
[close]

As a parent of a D1 gymnast I can tell you I hope skating never becomes anything like gymnastics. I too feel bad for this kid, cause like for my daughter, the fun looks to be stripped away and replaced with a feeling of obligation. It’s sad to me that when gymnastics is on TV my daughter rarely will sit down and watch it. It’s not that she doesn’t enjoy it, it just becomes overload at a certain point. Shame on the tanks Dad, who’s clearly a knob trying to live vicariously through his son.
[close]

I don't really know shit about gymnastics, but once you're at the D1 level it's pretty much guaranteed you'll never be on the olympic team, right? So what's the point of continuing to do gymnastics at the collegiate level?

The point is she got a full ride to college to study. She never intended to be an Olympian nor did we ever push her to stay in gymnastics when it started to get competitive. She happened to love it at a young age and put in enough work that she saw the end goal of a scholarship as enough motivation to stay in the sport. As a parent I couldn’t be more proud of her, she would’ve made a hell of a skater.

Its crazy, I coach high school sports, we actually play Weymouth where that player in the Real Sports segment plays for, its insane the amount these kids play.  There are rules in place at the Massachusetts level stating that they cannot play for multiple teams while in season, but they all pretty much play on at least one other team during season.  It is just that horrible idea that I must play D1 and that scouts "go see my club team."  Legit so toxic, it is really weird phenomenon where tbh these kid's high school team is less stressful than their club teams....

What a small world- my brother coaches on of the private school teams and is dealing with this issue where kids can’t play a certain amount of months in the year and for a particular amount of teams. They are not even allowed to do on ice clinics In the off season.  .

I didn't hate that. Company name is low hanging fruit and the music was pretty lame, helmet is whatever, but he's not untalented.

Real question from a lifelong low impact skater:

the way Trae lands his bigger stuff, like almost leaning/crouching/rubber-banding his legs upon impact...does that have a beneficial or detrimental effect on his knees in the long run? Basically, is it a technique or just bad/awkward form? Or are his knees already shot and that's just how it is for him now?

For a family so hell bent on documenting the premature destruction of a child's body, you'd think they find a better filmer and use better cameras.

Imagine sitting in your wheelchair at age 30 showing your children how you used to be an amazing skateboarding and all the footage is in square (or vertical) format at super low res.

i have no expertise to back up what i'm saying, but i have to say it still: that kid won't skate long past 20. if he does. chances are even if his body is staying fine, he is gonna be over it as soon as he can escape his dad's grip. that is if his dad is not finding some bullshit stunt to put the kid in a wheelchair once and for all before that.

Even though we all know Trey's dad already has a huge Monster logo on his truck next to the Famous Stars and Straps logo and the Kottonmouth Kings emblem.

If you were a skate parent - it is so short sighted to make your kid a hammer boy.   Train him in the parks, that’s where all the contest/sponsor money goes to and I’m guessing it’s a lot less impact on a growing body.     CJ Collins pop punk dad had it right

Saw this a few days ago. The fire emoji's and hype in the comments are fucking sad. This kid is getting completely broke off for ABD's

I was wondering why this thread was bumped.... Holy smokes. I struggle with the idea of my child skating (he's 13 months so it's a long way away ((8 more months.)) If I was pushing him past his limits and I heard him shout, "I broke my leg!!!" I would highly reconsider my involvement with his skating. Go break your leg by yourself but I don't want any record of me shouting, "you got this!!!" as I film with my Samsung Galaxy 6.

13 months is a good age to start your kid off on massive drops. The low center of gravity and Michelin Man legs should absorb a large amount of impact. Also, Independent makes a onesie that is just darling.

You can see how weak his back knee is, the way he drops/tucks it.

Haven't seen that many heelflips in a while, reminds me of me in my teens when it was the only trick I did.

Kid seems to be growing into his skating a bit more, but physically you can see the damage has already been done.

Considering he's spent a lot of time jumping off and up onto stuff and that he should be full of bounce at that age, his flatground pop is worse than mine, and I'm touching 40.

Always feel uncomfortable when stumbling on that insta. The dad should be investigated for sure. No doubt that’s child abuse.

Why the fuck are Santa Cruz endorsing it? They have seemingly normal people working in association with them like Kevin Braun and joe Perrin. Does no one step in a tell a TM that they shouldn’t be endorsing this?

He’s been off of Santa Cruz for a bit it seems like, but still on a bunch of other NHS shit.  I’d bet a dollar that his dad blew that deal up. 

The kid looks like he’s kind of growing up, and it seems like his dad is still writing his captions for him like it’s an account for the family dog.

Well he ollied a twenty when he was nine, it's not unreasonable to assume he will ollie a forty when he's 18
I mean, will his knees even make it to 18? Totally missing my point though. What I was meaning is sponsors dropping him.

You ever seen a fence w/ a sweet skate-spot on the other side?
You ever hoped you could be on the other side of said fence?

...it's a joke man

every time i see this kid i do think, if you're going to be a rad dad it's a way better plan to make your kid get good at fakie mannys and fundamental stuff than just dooming them with a hucker career. my kid is gonna have beautiful tasteful half-cab flips before i let him try to boardslide some community college rail

hucking is cut, no one even likes that shit anymore.
i said this on the pod, but if yr gonna be an overbearing sports parent, train yr kid to be a left-handed pitcher (even if they're right-handed)--they can make tons of money til they're like 50.

Yeah, sorry about that. I reread everything and I messed up. I didn't mean to sound aggro or anything. I am at work right now. My bad. But I see what you mean. But I agree with you about the fundamentals tbh. There's only so much you can throw yourself down before you just can't anymore.
Again, my apologies.

That's the tragedy aspect of the whole thing. He's training his kid to be the biggest hucker just after all the hucks have been done and no one cares anymore. It'll probably be enough for a career as an Instagram skater, though.

Got a new future-Trae/dad combo at my local. The other day the dad told the kid they would leave the skatepark after the kid attempted to ollie onto a manual pad 25 times.

For some reason (probably being a parent myself) I read every last page of this thread, and what a wild ride. From Mad Dawg tatts, to knee-clapping child hucking, to TAMS, to the sick GeoCities/Angelfire Korn and Limp Bizkit internet 1.0 sites. 13 year old me was guilty of having a Limp Bizkit Angelfire fan site with stolen jpegs, corny animated gifs, and of course the obligatory hit counter and guestbook haha. What a time for the internet.

My first exposure to this Trae kid was a recent edit in the photos/video section and lately, I've tried to subscribe to the old if you have nothing positive to contribute, then say nothing at all mindset. But man it just seems like a sad case of high-pressure parent involvement in an outdated high-risk/low-reward style of skateboarding his ballplayer jock father has little idea of. I'm sure if this kid lived elsewhere he'd learn some more interesting tricks or skate some more original spots more creatively. The NKA 'big pedo vibes' Nigel videos are weird and creepy and sad. His dad having his own Thrasher interview without any input from the kid himself was embarrassing too.

I've never witnessed this kind of parenting in person around skateboarding but there was a scooter kid's dad pulling this shit once at our local park and I had to bite my tongue so hard not to step in and defend this poor little guy. He was mocking him for being a "wussy" and praising other kids in front of his son while chastising him for needing to try harder, go faster, try again etc. It was in the summer and it was hot as fuck, like 36 degrees C and this kid just wanted to go swimming and pops keeps saying shit like "5 more tries." After 10 minutes I was the only other person there, sitting under a shade tree and watching it all go down. After 20 minutes of his dad beaking off, the kid muttered angrily under his breathe "I'll show you my real self!" and aggressively pushed towards our big pyramid trying his best to clear the top (didn't even come close as it's pretty big and steep and the ground is really rough) and it broke my heart a little hearing how frustrated it was making him. It's pretty kooky but if the kid was a skater I probably would have said something since I'm a fairly confrontational guy in person. Shit sucks to see in any hobby or sport though. Kids deserve to figure things out themselves and have fun with positive reinforcement and only slight encouraging 'pushing' at best to get them to try something different if they're getting frustrated and not enjoying themselves or let them know it's okay if you don't get it, just keep trying if you're having fun and we can always come back another day.

My 6-year-old wanted to try skateboarding so I put together a complete out of old parts and told him tricks aren't important, just learn how to push and roll around and turn and tic tac a bit. Even that was too frustrating for him compared to riding his mountain bike or scooter so I just encourage those activities instead despite it also breaking my heart a little buying him a 'pro' style scooter for Christmas to replace his shitty little toy razor one but I'm not going to be a dick about it. I still bring his board out with us often or let him steal mine and practice pushing or just get some good buttboarding in. I might give another gentle nudge toward skateboarding when he's older if he still shows interest in it but I don't know how anyone could be as overbearing as some of these lunatic rad dads as you all call them.

I had one of those shitty sims boards with the plastic trucks growing up and didn't get my first complete till I was about 8 years old but I was more or less in the same position as your son. But no one was trying to force it on me, the board was just there and I finally picked it up out of my own self interests after a while. I also messed around on razor scooters too, but it was just that early 2000s time period, who didn't as a kid. I think what made me really get into skating was going to the skate shop and picking out my own complete. But I wouldn't invest in a new complete until he shows some sort of real solid interest. I know picking out my first deck and complete really set the fire for my skating interest as it just clicked that "this was my skateboard!"

Nyjah 2.0
[close]

At least nyjah actually liked skating. Not sure trae does.
[close]

Nyjahs dad was likeable in the beginning.  I heard he was the “connect connect” for ganja for Davis area skaters.

Nyjahs dad got to be a problem AFTER nyjah was sponsored and making some good money

I know this old af and really useless to add but wasn't Nigels dad owner of skateshop/park?

Obviously dude gets a bad reputation and much deserved but always wondered about that stuff. Pretty impressive for a father of 3, skateboardr who never made it into the industry, especially the time period. Recession era. Ganga connect a separate economy. Makes sense.

Makes you wonder what kinda life they would have had as a family without element. Dad gets bad wrap but up until element he dosent sound like that bad a guy. I mean dude was always a rasta but how much did he play that shit up for element. The vibe at the time on element was much more in tune with the tituaral element/nature feel.

Honestly one of the only interesting things about nyjah.

Thanks for sharing your perspective that's quite helpful. My boy is kind of spoiled so I think trying to also get him to learn how to value, respect, and take care of his possessions first is probably a good idea too.

You also made me remember a lot for things I probably haven't thought about in 20+ years haha...

I toyed around with a neighborhood friends 'street sucker' shaped board, complete with big chunky tail guard when I was around 7-8. Just butt boarding down small hills. It wasn't until I was maybe 10-11 when my friend got me really into skateboarding, letting me try his Mad Circle Moses Itkonen board out and telling me about his older skater cousin from Richmond who he'd get cool hand me down clothes and shoes from. We called them double enders since skateboards having both a nose and tail were still new to us even though it was the early going on mid 90s in our bumfuck town lol. I still remember weird details around getting my first complete, like how shocking all the world industries and prime gear was to a sheltered kid. Lots of swear words and offensive images and all that good stuff. I of course wasn't allowed to pick any board out and went with the safe choice of some Powell slick. I remember the guy who gripped and set up my board said "sweet" about one of the parts of my complete I picked out and later on my mom asked me "what did that guy say? Sugar or something?" It took me many months to learn how to ollie and despite being the first our of group to learn how to kickflip, nothing ever came natural to me. I think my son has my same shit genes in that regard but just doesn't have the persistence yet to stick through the early battles.
