I don't think her output with her sponsors has really shown her push herself, which I care more about than abilities. Hopefully if she goes pro, she can release some footage that shows her trying hard.Yeah I'm not sure the occasional 50-50 fs shuv cameo in a Strobeck video - or a 5-0 fs shuv if she's feeling brave - is enough to warrant going pro, she's got sick style though would just like to see some more footy

If you’re looking for permission to say something sexist or racist, assuming we feel that way, you’re mistaken.
Please keep that bullshit to yourself. If thats what you are thinking.
Enough people here are calling foul on her skill, and pointing out that the ability to sell boards as a ‘pro’ is not tied to ability these days. That seems to be the extent of it, marketability.
Maybe you have a great critique about how capitalism exploits everything and anything, including identity politics to sell shit. I’d be interested in hearing that.

Beatrice is an interesting one. She hasn't progressed since 2013/14, and has actually regressed since she's been in the limelight. I do think it's sick Dill literally came across her randomly 10 years ago and started flowing her boards from one clip. I do see the appeal, and how she is a role model for girls, in particular in the black community.
As a side note do you think much is made about Vans obvious corporate push to cover all minorities and demographics? Arin was offered a contract when her clip went viral, Beatrice was given a clothing range within months of being signed, Cher got a blank cheque put in front of them when they appeared in a Supreme video. Literally put on a guy with no legs on. I'm all for inclusivity in skateboarding but when a corporation is involved I just can't help but think about the sincerely of it all. All just seems so icky yet they are praised for their diversity.
Does Dill get a pass for exploiting a specific demographic over and over and over?artist, photograph, model, on her way to create a brand
Representation matters, but I don't know if she has any sort of side project or something that makes up for her lack of skill.
Skill wise I don't think she's good enough to be a pro skater. But I will say this, if the persons who run arguably the most successful board brand of current times think you have something that warrants a pro board, then I guess you warrant a pro board. It's as simple as that.

I won't post it since there's not a consensus on the ethics of this matter. For example, Aaron Snyder argued that a mag photo is a "representation" of a trick (i.e., it's ok to print the bail if you made the trick). Also, for stills, it is sometimes difficult to tell which one was the make, so they print the one with the best composition.
But in this case, there is no way she made it when the photo was taken, though it could have been landed before or after. And the photographer started shooting and working the angles after she clearly was not going to land it.

I like Beatrice.
I like the way she skates, it’s unique and she makes it work. I started following her a couple years ago after seeing her do a bs 180 ollie, and likes the style.
I quit following her because as she got popular there was less skating more ‘lifestyle’ stuff that I didn’t care for.
I think she’s Jewish, and is studying the language. Which I don’t have any problem with. She doesn’t seem bigoted at all, so as long as you’re a good human I don’t care what god you believe in.
Should she be pro? She’s definitely not at that ‘level’ of skating. But Skateboarding exists within Capitalism, and companies need to sell boards. Sorry if it breaks ‘the rules’, but moving bloards, shoes, and energy drinks trumps all.
If you don’t like the business choices, that’s between you, Dill, and the shitty reality of our economic system. Beatrice’s skating is beside the point.
But here’s a thought experiment.
There are only two boards in the shop with the dimensions you want.
One is a pro board for a fucking ripper, but who is a shitty person in real life. You can fill in the name.
The other is Beatrice’s, a rad person, but a mediocre skater.

I watched the whole thing from across the street. At the time it was shot, I see no way she could ever have made it (even if you subscribe to the "representation" excuse, is it still ok if the trick was landed at a later time?). Approach was too slow, she didn't use the bump, and was ollieing in front of and to the side of the hydrant. When I saw the photographer shooting instead of waiting for her to get close to landing, I knew it was a fraud. Thrasher once had a section for this.
I think she’s Jewish
Sometimes I’ve seen anti-religious graphics, and there was a thing in The Skateboard Mag a few years ago about skaters who didn’t want any religious influence in skating…
First of all, I’m not religious. I’m a follower of Christ.
What is the difference between those two things?
In religion, you don’t love certain people. In order for me to be in a certain religion, I’d have to exclude a certain group. That’s not what I do. I don’t exclude anyone or dislike anyone, to make that clear. I love all people. Christ loved all people. I hope this is coming across well. I don’t want it coming across weird.

But in this case, there is no way she made it when the photo was taken, though it could have been landed before or after. And the photographer started shooting and working the angles after she clearly was not going to land it. There's also a 20 minute youtube video discussing the cover with no video footage of the trick.[close]
Poor choice from the photograph I guess.
But prints have not been the makes for decades.
It’s no problem if you landed it at some point.
It’s not « faking it ». It’s just how it’s done[close]
I watched the whole thing from across the street. At the time it was shot, I see no way she could ever have made it (even if you subscribe to the "representation" excuse, is it still ok if the trick was landed at a later time?). Approach was too slow, she didn't use the bump, and was ollieing in front of and to the side of the hydrant. When I saw the photographer shooting instead of waiting for her to get close to landing, I knew it was a fraud. Thrasher once had a section for this.[close]
well i don't know what's her ethics and if she really landed it but i'll give her the benefit of the doubt because the whole industry subscribe to what you call the representation excuse. that's just how you take skateboarding photos (countless instances of skaters being dressed different on footage and on photo).
Yeah i hear youI'm not even against photos not being makes, as long as it's not total BS. The few times went out with people shooting I saw often if say the trick takes 30 tries the photog just shoots tries 5-15 and was like "yep got it now just land it"
i just wanted to point out that sometimes you shoot photos on a day there was no make. and come back another day to film (or vice versa).
In her defense, at this point there's just no proof she's faking it

Asked and answered.
She hasn’t improved at all since she was first introduced (not that there has been much in the way of footage to judge this) and since her introduction, the subsequent female skaters that have emerged onto the scene have lapped her several times over in skill and productivity, while having a fraction of the opportunities Beatrice has had (ie multiple vans colorways)
To give her a board over others feels like a cynical marketing move to capitalize on her being a young black woman rather than rewarding a young black woman (like universally beloved Samarria if an example is needed) for what they bring to skateboarding.
Most of us understand skateboarding isn’t a meritocracy and that names can sell irrespective of talent, but many struggle to see how she is popular enough considering there are so many other options across many differing demographics for female skaters to look up to than when Beatrice first emerged and was an anomaly.

Nelly is an example of a non male rider on a trendy brand that doesn't seem like she's being exploited for being female. She tries really hard and eats shit for clips. I don't blame Beatrice for taking the opportunity but it's not a good move on the company's part in the long run to overmarket your rider before she's made her stamp on her own skating. I think she will sell boards in the short run but will run out of steam as having female skaters on your team becomes less and less of an abnormality. Anyways, I hope Nelly turns pro before Beatrice but I don't think that'll be the case.[close]
This. Exactly who came to mind. Nelly definitely deserves a pro board before Beatrice Domond.

I bring up her race because, in America, Black women are one of the most discriminated against groups of people (as I understand it, just a couple spots less-discriminated against than disabled lesbian/queer/trans Black women).

I can't really comment on the social/cultural magnitude of Beatrice potentially becoming pro - I am a woman, but I'm white so my privilege affords some bias. I assume and hope that there are younger black skaters that are STOKED on this news. That is a win no matter the circumstances. Giving the BIPOC women skate scene more representation, more visibility, is absolutely a net positive for the community.

Another woman here. Agree with you 100%. So many other female rippers who deserve more but not gonna hate. Good for her I guess. Not stoked on her skating much, I keep wanting to say go faster when I watch clips. As long as she doesn’t boardslide like Taylor Silverman.Expand QuoteAny women here to offer their opinion.
Lots of dudes telling a black woman what she should do lol. Let her skate.[close]
woman here. for me personally, Beatrice is eclipsed by several other skaters: Samarria Brevard, Ariana Spencer, Adrianne Sloboh, Arin. I don't follow her skating for a reason, it just hasn't entranced me. It also seems like she's trying to do some modeling as well and that rubs me the wrong way. I personally hate the whole trend of pro skaters being models on the side. Seems whack but I'm aware that I love to be judgmental.
I think it's great that Beatrice is potentially going pro but I also don't care either way. She's not really on my radar and that's okay. I don't follow the FA team nor does the brand really attract me, so it's whatever.
I can't really comment on the social/cultural magnitude of Beatrice potentially becoming pro - I am a woman, but I'm white so my privilege affords some bias. I assume and hope that there are younger black skaters that are STOKED on this news. That is a win no matter the circumstances. Giving the BIPOC women skate scene more representation, more visibility, is absolutely a net positive for the community.
As an aside - there are a few women skaters that I am anxiously awaiting becoming pro for their board sponsors: Nicole Hause, Andrea Benitez, Jenn Soto, Candy Jacobs to name a few.

Dill constantly finds and promotes riders that sell to 15 year old kids of which I am not one.
it kinda blows my mind that jenn soto still isn't pro. she's pretty sick. maybe because she hasn't been totally killing it in contests, but also hasn't really put out a ton of street footage? idk, but i like watching her skate.Another woman here.

Adrianne has insta - @adrianne.sloboh but she doesn't post that frequently. She fuckin rips though and she makes it look effortless. Bummed she's skating for Cariuma but she's way too fun to watch for it to bother me.
Never heard of Sheena, where can I find them?
I hope she drops a sick part with this pro board and shuts everyone up. even if its filled with tons of 50-50 fs shoves
she is out there promoting skateboarding , trying to live the life of a skateboarder, and there was people in her life who saw that and choose to help push her forward. Who cares if her skill level isn't up the degree that people's standards have been conditioned too, if people want her around , to be skating at the session, trying her best, trying to learn new shit and to become a better skateboarder, that to me , seems like its the way it should be.
Expand QuoteI bring up her race because, in America, Black women are one of the most discriminated against groups of people (as I understand it, just a couple spots less-discriminated against than disabled lesbian/queer/trans Black women).
So when a Black woman finds success in her chosen field in this country, it makes sense to celebrate it rather than discount it.
Especially when, by all accounts, said Black woman seems to be genuine, loyal and a positive force in the community.[close]

You just described Lil Wayne brief presence in skating.
Anyway, looking into Beatrice more, was surprised that she’s 27 (assumed she was 20 max) and thought it was pretty cool to learn she a part of the growing list of skaters with college diplomas.
she just doesn’t skate well
everything she does is slow and clunky.
and like everyone here has said, she hasn’t progressed at all.
there’s no other issues here - that’s it. she skates bad

she will sell boards that is the criteria for becoming pro. its a lucrative business venture.
theres a lot of men who are pro with a lot less hard work + skill than jeff carlyle or sean greene and they are probably at the bottom end of the pro pay scale. its all about how memorable you are. how many other ladies are out there with the presence she has had in such hype videos? i think its dumb for her not to be pro. even her name is sick (is that her real last name?)
it sounds like a lot of these comments are holding back from saying how they really feel. “good for her, i don’t like her but, happy for her! i’m optimistic of her progress. dill & ave see something in her so, she must have potential!” just be honest. her fake roll always are even worse than sean pablo’s, she is not enjoyable to watch skate at all. i don’t care either, you don’t have to say positive things about every female skateboarder just because they’re a woman. you don’t do it for all male skaters so why create an unlevel playing field.

Whoa whoa whoa chill out man, that wasn't a dig at you at all
Beatrice Domond is deservedly pro and the racist, sexist, jealous, out-of-touch, misogynistic, uninformed, crybaby Slap maggots hate her and Dill for it.
I think it’s cool she’s pro cause standards have changed an FA has clearly never been about skill on a board see Sean Pablo vs KB and TJ but brink might be going overboard on the defense.
Her actual skill set compared to even other female pros like Rayssa and Samaria is clearly lacking .and if you really wanna go back look at Alexis 20 years ago holding her own in wonder horrible life. But again skateboarding is different now and this opens doors for more black female skaters and that’s pretty dope. She seems like a nice person who’s in it for the culture so fuck it.
Again tho brink you’re going a little too hard on the defense when pretty much everyone in the last 10 pages argument is she’s just not that good at skating and that’s really some bigoted opinion it’s just factual based on the footage we have available.
But hey if her going pro gets more under represented groups in skating shine and acceptance isn’t that the point? How many interviews with young black skaters in 2000s mentioned that the Tony hawk games brought acceptance of skating to their community and kept them out of trouble? This could easily be that moment for this generation and we should really all be here for that.

Hey it worked out for you, growing up mid 2000s reading all the mags I was always kinda more stoked on the dudes who took the industry jobs and journalist parts anyway. You’re still a huge understated part of the culture but you get to see both sides and you’re still friends with everyone and still kinda rip. It’s cool seeing More of that getting shine these days like jake getting the NB shoe and actually having sick footage to go with it. We’re all a bunch of weirdos posting on a forum cause we love skateboarding at the end of the day.

Cite good faith examples.
Just because some think one skater doesn’t deserve to be pro and that they happen to be a Black and a female, does not mean we have issues with ALL black people or females - a point that has been made stated and clarified many times. It’s spurious statements like that that make it difficult to engage with you.
Also, again, didn’t you have positive things to say about Mikey Alfred? I want you back on the record about this.

no one on here mentioned her skin color or gender as to why they don't think she deserves to be pro. it is an interesting and telling peek into the psyche of the person who sees racism and sexism where it doesn't exist.
also, posters on here did express having issues with her being religious, yet i don't see anything about that in your litany of accusations. can we assume you're backing those "maggots"?

You do realize that those things don’t need to be “mentioned” to exist right? Thought so.
As for religion … I missed that amazingly fascinating part of the thread so yeah … add it into my list.
I went to Catholic school for 9 years back in NJ. It was a nightmare. The nuns would deny the kids the chance to go to the bathroom during class sometimes and kids would shit and piss themselves at their desks. One time I was in church for Ash Wednesday mass … 4th grade … we would all go to church on weekday holidays as part of the school day … and this dude who was 31 had a heart attack next to me and fell into the center aisle and died. He was flopping around like a fish released from a net on a fishing boat deck. Gasping and moaning and shit. It was wild. Ambulance came and paramedics started shocking him with the defibs right next me, but no luck.

I talk to him. Maybe you misinterpreted hyperbole? But, yeah, if he apologized to you, it's because MattyC has a conscience and doesn't want anyone to feel like he hurt their feelings. Him even apologizing is evidence of how MattyC's on a whole other level from the majority of users here, a real stand up guy.
Yeah sounds like you're over it.

Beatrice is an O.G.
She is one of the few female skaters with any swag appeal whatsoever. Being a beautiful, interesting looking person with dope fits is literally half of being a pro skateboarder.
Take Cody Mac recently of bLind for example: hard to look at, never in my life would want to get to know him or read an interview from him, plus horrible T1000 gone rockadoodle fits = zero marketability no matter how good ge could ever become at skateboarding

You had an account here and focused then you made an instagram post throwing everyone on slap under the bus as the worst people imaginable, only to come back and continually talk shit on everyone and everything here if they disagree with you. It’s not like you simply say things like “I disagree and here’s why” - you insult people with accusations of bigotry, racism, transphobia etc.
The vast majority of people here call out racism etc whenever it comes up, but for some reason you want to be the poster boy for this and it’s really old and uncalled for.

It’s hilarious you think you have some sort of intellectual high ground. Did you even go to college what is it that you even do? No wonder you always side with Instagram influencer types. Like dead ass I don’t know what you do or what your a figure in skateboarding.
A score is kept in golf. It's definitely different as a skateboarder. A skateboarder is essentially a model until they wear a uniform. It's cool golfers get to wear whatever they want. I'm sure there are rules but that's why it gets so whacky is cause golfers take the look as far as possible without breaking the rules.Expand QuoteBeatrice is an O.G.
She is one of the few female skaters with any swag appeal whatsoever. Being a beautiful, interesting looking person with dope fits is literally half of being a pro skateboarder.
Take Cody Mac recently of bLind for example: hard to look at, never in my life would want to get to know him or read an interview from him, plus horrible T1000 gone rockadoodle fits = zero marketability no matter how good ge could ever become at skateboarding[close]
Mother fucker she can't actually ride the skateboard.
So what your saying is if I look the part and have swag apeal. A beautiful and interesting person to look at with dope fits * I should be a professional golfer*

Expand Quoteshe will sell boards that is the criteria for becoming pro. its a lucrative business venture.
theres a lot of men who are pro with a lot less hard work + skill than jeff carlyle or sean greene and they are probably at the bottom end of the pro pay scale. its all about how memorable you are. how many other ladies are out there with the presence she has had in such hype videos? i think its dumb for her not to be pro. even her name is sick (is that her real last name?)[close]
I'm pretty sure Marissa Del Santo was tuckkneeing 4 blocks over 10 years ago, and that wasnt good enough then.
But I'm sure this will make Jason Dill more money
Skateboarding a decade+ ago can be kinda compared to tv ratings that long ago. If Marissa did turn pro she probably would of been expected to move 20 times as many pro boards as someone would today. I think there's been a bunch of different interviews about it and pretty sure there were plans to turn her pro for zero but that came with a whole bunch of expectations of filming,shooting photos, doing demos and skating contests (would of been on the same team as Cole, Asta, Sandoval) and it wasn't what they wanted.Expand QuoteExpand Quoteshe will sell boards that is the criteria for becoming pro. its a lucrative business venture.

First of all, 10 years ago and now are completely different times. Dill and Jamie Thomas are completely different people with completely different brands and markets.
Just because Jamie Thomas failed to see the value in turning Marissa pro in that climate (for all we know perhaps it WAS the right move and the sales just wouldnt have been there? there was NO girls skating back then compared to now) does not really have any bearing on her skill level at the time. Alexis Sablone was very high level when WHL came out, i would say much higher level than marissa. she did not turn pro until 2018!!! I think there is a lot of factors here - i believe she did a lot of very intense school from like 2005-2015 but i also would say she probably did not feel as comfortable trying to make it pro in a world where there are no other women there to buy your boards vs today where we are much more accepting of non male skateboarders.
Ed saw the potential in turning elissa pro all those years ago that is also worth mentioning - also J brought her on to bootleg as a pro too even in those times. I dont know the whole story behind Marissa but i do remember that part coming out raw as trainwreck
How many young black children need to be photographed shirtless in Fat Bills apartment before somebody calls the cops.Daewon skated for dvs. Dills skateboarding has always been relevant. He's a good skateboarder. Bill has all sorts of naked teenagers at his apartment. Not just young black kids.

Has anyone else ever turned pro w/o a full part?It seems more common these days. Has Rayssa had a full part? She's clearly the best female skater on the planet, but does she have a full part anywhere? The Hollywood High clips was dope, but I was hoping she'd put out an edit with her pro boards.

Yeah you have a good point . I mean that energy got her where she is. And as I said before it’s a good place to be long term for skateboarding. There’s more black and female skaters making money than ever and this will only push that so fuck it. She’s not gonna get better at skating so we might as well just kill the thread and take the good things from this.
You want skill we got rayssa and I’m sure Shane has her working on a part. I mean there’s no way he’s not gonna capitalize on having two olympians from foreign countries. Hes gonna have two whole markets locked down for years off that.

Ive seen comments about him posting or following conspiracy stuff I guess - my point was that his social media posting or following has zero to do with how he skates.
17 pages in and she's still not appealing to watch skateboard and Dill is still exploiting her gender, race, and followers to cash out. Unless there is some huge community outreach on her part that we don't read about it seems like an obvious and scummy play on his part and he's gaslighting people into claiming she has good style or whatever.
so much cognitive dissonance going on here. the same people who go to bat for the "skateboarding isn't a sport" take and hate on things like Street League that attempt to place a value-based judgement on technical skill in skateboarding also are the first to cry foul when they perceive that someone is being rewarded whose skill level is lower than whatever standard they've created in their own head. which one is it? is skateboarding about technical skill, or is it about creativity, style, and the way it makes you feel when you watch it? i think most of us would probably say it's about both, at least in some capacity. but if it's about both, and we have all accepted that there's room in skateboarding for people who rely pretty much exclusively on technical skill with little to speak of in terms of creativity, style, "sauce", etc... why can't we say the same for giving the same value to people like Beatrice who probably fall more into the "makes you feel something when you watch their skating" camp and don't rely as much on technical skill? no one's asking you to say that Beatrice possesses the same technical skill on a skateboard as a Nyjah, Suciu, Yuto, PJ, P-Rod type, or even the same technical skill as other successful women in skateboarding like Rayssa, Alexis, etc. The only thing getting a pro board means is that people enjoy watching your skateboarding enough to buy product with your name on it, and it's abundantly clear to me that people (maybe not the people you deem to be important or have the most valuable opinions, but people nonetheless) enjoy watching her skate and will buy her board. If they don't, then I'm sure FA will pull her board. It's really as simple as that imo

Man, I use to be on the whole "i dont get why these girls get sponsored when i can skate better than them" train. But I'm over that.
Myabe I'm getting older, maybe SLAP is rotting my brain. But in reality, in terms of females getting sponsors/turning pro (not accolades for their skills) it really is just about marketing, and nothing else.

I'm over being bitter about less skilled people getting shine, its literally NOT about skill at all, its just marketing.

Be happy for her, call it what it is, but dont sit here and act like "SHE'S RIPPING BRO!" that shit is so fucking phony, and honestly seems a bit patronizing.

As most of you guys/gal’s know I have seen her go from grommet to pro and I’m a fan of her no doubt, I’m with a lot of others that are skeptical of her legitimacy.
Yes she’s good but her versatility is highly lacking, never saw her skate a hubba a handrail gap vert or mini ramp. Look that park she skates park vista in boynton beach is so sketchy that you can slip out because of the dust. She skates like she’s on glass, which is great for her but for me nah I’m not going to say pro at all, shop flow at best.
id like to see venture give her a truck if her pro board sells out mad fast. we need to sell more trucks and get those 5.6 low molds done

So late in the night for me but yeah, I had to comment. Just my opinion..una should have been pro a year ago and gottwig should have been pro 5 years ago. Krooked is an elevated brand so I get it also, but if she skated regular I would not back her at all, or as much. Goofy skating only. Beatrice has amazing style and I love what she's been capable to do. I made the post about Tubsy. I appreciate the last part. I'm not too good at highlighting those quotes but I mentioned above Sam narvaez and Amanda France are other notable female street skaters. I wanted to say more here but I didn't.

yeah Una has a pretty legit list of sponsors, has parts on Thrasher, and correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t there an active thread about her turning pro for Krooked soon? I probably like her skating more than Beatrice’s but I don’t think she’s a great example of someone who isn’t being recognized properly.
ultimately i just don’t find it to be a compelling argument that beatrice is “taking someone else’s spot who deserves it more” or whatever. beatrice made her way in the industry over the past decade or so and her being successful isn’t preventing Una or any other woman from achieving the same success, quite the opposite imo. i find it far more likely that Krooked will actually go “oh damn, look at what FA did with Beatrice, we should probably do the same with Una” than the opposite.

Also Amanda France skates mostly parks but she has the best street style. In my opinion.
Its not even up for debate that this is a gestural decision - and if it means more black female pros and more visibility for black female skateboarders or female skaters of any ethnicity then thats all right. Its opening the doors and helping pave a route at the very least. I don't think you need to worry about your precious realm of professional skateboarding being jeopardized. there will always be people who see life as one big competition.

Always had people of all races and genders? Not really.
In the 90s skating was pretty white, pretty male and catered to mostly latchkey kids (outside of the SF and NY scenes that did had more racial diversity but came from similar family structures and was overwhelming male).
98-2002 a lot suburban white kids got into skating through Tony Hawk Pro Skater (think the Mike Mo and Figgy types)
There’s been black dudes sprinkled in for a while but skating got way blacker around the mid-late 2000’s, lowkey because of the rollout for the Ice Cream video (for example this is around the time a lot of the Odd Future affiliates got into skating).
The mid-late 2010’s is when you start seeing a lot more women and open LGBT skaters.
It’s much more diverse now, but there’s still room to grow so I back Beatrice turning pro if it’s good for exposure, the same way I would back Jeremy Lin if he made it to the Basketball Hall of Fame.
I also think FA as a brand kinda proved that conventional pro standards aren’t really necessary. Sean Pablo was trash until 2 years after he got a board (although he was pretty young when he turned pro, and wasn’t he in college or something?).

People of all races and genders have always been skating.[close]
Always had people of all races and genders? Not really.
In the 90s skating was pretty white, pretty male and catered to mostly latchkey kids (outside of the SF and NY scenes that did have more racial diversity but came from similar family structures and was still overwhelming male).
98-2002 a lot of suburban white kids got into skating through Tony Hawk Pro Skater (think the Mike Mo and Figgy types)
There’s been black dudes sprinkled in for a while but skating got way blacker around the mid-late 2000’s, lowkey because of the rollout for the Ice Cream video (for example this is around the time a lot of the Odd Future affiliates got into skating).
The mid-late 2010’s is when you start seeing a lot more women and open LGBT skaters.
It’s much more diverse now, but there’s still room to grow so I back Beatrice turning pro if it’s good for exposure, the same way I would back Jeremy Lin if he made it to the Basketball Hall of Fame.
I also think FA as a brand kinda proved that conventional pro standards aren’t really necessary. Sean Pablo was trash until 2 years after he got a board (although he was pretty young when he turned pro, and wasn’t he starting college or something?).

You must be white and only hanging around white dudes in a very white neighborhood/city. As a non-white dude, all my friends skating were not white. My town also had a very diverse population and there were skaters of all colors. also non-white people played THPS and were influenced by that as well.

The best grind with a shuv is either back nose grind nollie back shuvit lacks…. tastefulness.
or front side fakie 5oh fakie shuv.
Shuv over the ledge or hardway or whatever.
She should up grade to only grinding the front truck (or the back truck when fakie)
That's what pros do imo. 50 and 5oh are not as dope as being on the front truck.
But then again, skating isn’t about skill so big ups Beatrice.
The best grind with a shuv is either back nose grind nollie back shuvI definitely agree with this. They look the best and they are a decent trick in terms of difficulty. Pros don't fakie 50 or 5-0 anything that's not a handrail or hubba usually.
or front side fakie 5oh fakie shuv.
Shuv over the ledge or hardway or whatever.

Well to those people I say lay down and have some Liquid Death and hear me out, because you can achieve your dream too. Just lay down and smoke cigarettes. See, skateboarding is not about getting clips or doing drugs or how many fingers you can fit in or getting paid. Skateboarding is about being a sk8er and achieving a dream. Pro skating is like a tightrope and if you fall off you're just a bag of shit and getting flowed is your chance to fulfill the dream for free. Here is a quote from Former president Barack Obama "If you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best..."
All we need to succeed is to look at the stars in the sky and throw our boards on the ground and shout "I CAN DO IT FOR FREE" so stop drinking Red Bulls and stop paying your taxes and stop going to work. Stop going to school and stop having showers and baths and start counting clips and hookups. Go back lip that rail. Today is the day to kickstart living your life.

Well to those people I say lay down and have some Liquid Death and hear me out, because you can achieve your dream too. Just lay down and smoke cigarettes. See, skateboarding is not about getting clips or doing drugs or how many fingers you can fit in or getting paid. Skateboarding is about being a sk8er and achieving a dream. Pro skating is like a tightrope and if you fall off you're just a bag of shit and getting flowed is your chance to fulfill the dream for free. Here is a quote from Former president Barack Obama "If you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best..."
All we need to succeed is to look at the stars in the sky and throw our boards on the ground and shout "I CAN DO IT FOR FREE" so stop drinking Red Bulls and stop paying your taxes and stop going to work. Stop going to school and stop having showers and baths and start counting clips and hookups. Go back lip that rail. Today is the day to kickstart living your life.
Is your dream to be an MMA fighter? Go kick a stranger. Is your dream to be a zookeeper? Go trap some animals. Is your dream to be a pro skater? Then watch my trick tip vids.

This thread doesn't need to be bumped but since it already is
Beatrice was at Tompkins about a month ago. Lots of kids were doing tricks over this little four-inch rail somebody had stood up. She gets in line and tries to ollie it going 5mph and slips out. Everybody goes oooooh. Then she tried it again (same speed) and landed it. Everybody went ahhhhh. Think she got a few yews. Then she did a kickflip i think and chilled on the benches the rest of the day.
I didn't know who she was because I haven't followed skating since 09 but I thought it was cool as fuck. I assumed she was just some random girl who started skating recently. I was impressed that she was so confident doing beginner stuff over it when people were nollie back heeling it. I love seeing beginners actually going for it at the park and not being shy, and seeing a WOC doing her thing skating and progressing made me happy. Went home with good vibes that night. When I learned who she was I was pretty baffled though.

Know what would be sick. Dis-Beatrice.you cover all your clothes in beeswax or snow seal gives it the crusty trainhopper look they're missing.
Give them a frickin Infest t-shirt and some frickin patch pants with coffee/sweat/dirt colour print patches.
I saw some kid with white brand new patch pants the other day. It always looks wrong AF.
Also you gotta do different shades of black material then paint over all of it black right over the patches and Logo and everything and rock that shit till it gets all scratched up.

How does this happen? Don’t you start rehab immediately after surgery? Now I know why she didn’t film a pro part but why not wait another six months and give yourself a chance?Think it can be pretty standard. Muscle does quickly plus however long before the surgery she probably wasn't using that leg much.

Elissa was/is in a whole other dimension than Beatrice. She also had JT, who for better or worse whatever your feelings are about him, was by her side and really showed and pushed her true potential as a skateboarder.
It's official. Skateboarding is just modeling on wheels now.
no it really is just modeling now hes right unfortunately

maybe i’m out of touch now cause it seems like a lot of industry people support it. but i refuse to deny how lame it is a skater of her skill level can be called pro.
she firmly belongs in the realm of social media influencer type skaters… Women skateboarding already gets criticized for their skills, having her achieve pro gives fuel to the fire. and it lowers the bar. I’m all for supporting her but pro? nah.
Unrelated but i think the next domino to fall of these kind of skaters is Eunice Chang from worble. She’s cool and all and i like her instagram videos, but pro? Nah. I hope they don’t do it.

Dill turning her pro for no sign of improvement or desire to push herself is like when people think it's good to be positive to a friend no matter what. It will not be good for her in the long run. She already had a career halting injury doing her little baby skateboarding. Do you think she will be able to keep pushing herself let alone keep up her level for a long time? What is she gonna feel like when she has to start a new career after skating from the bottom? Is she gonna take being told to do low level entry work well? Or will she expect the equivalent of a vans shoe and pro model deck just by vibing and being a nice person?
Also, I don't think it's good to inspire kids with a figure who is so far below the average professional skill level and who hasn't shown a good track record of effort. It's saying that if you are nice enough and likeable, you can skip ahead and be entitled to the same status of those who did work. If you wanted to consider race and gender into it too, it's point blank insulting because you're insinuating the specific group can't reach levels of skill and dedication and that's just not true.
I was in a bad mood and probably said more than was actually what's happening with her influence. It is still what I feel though. It all feels so manufactured and gross. People act like it's a big positive step forward for representation like it's not Dill and AVE profiting off most of this hype. It seems like an overreaction here because a majority agrees but looking at the majority of the public comments it's like it's either people overly excited and loving it or people that admittedly have some prejudice on other factors regarding her.Expand QuoteDill turning her pro for no sign of improvement or desire to push herself is like when people think it's good to be positive to a friend no matter what.

Lol yo chillll. You're extrapolating quite a bit haha
I think most agree that the skill level is not there, but nothing to overreact about.
Kids look at their phones every day and witness ppl being rewarded for all kinds of dumb shit e.g. having rich parents and buying nice things with their money, copy/pasting a poorly orchestrated dance, etc.

I don't think this one drop in the bucket is tainting the minds of young skaters haha.
Sorry but you're acting like this anomaly is the end of skateboarding as we know it.
As groms, my friends and I always had skaters that we talked shit about and thought shouldn't be pro (doing 360 bonelesses and dramatically pushing with our forearms in front of our face was a running joke). I still see kids carrying this tradition.
There always will b skaters that should not've been turned pro and then the vast majority of pros who actually rip. Kids know how to compare and contrast, they'll be fine.

I think it's nice she doesn't have to ride for Krux to get coverage. You gotta give her that. If the angle is "Bill and Dill have been supporting this girl's skating for 7 years because they didn't want her to ride Krux ever," well, that's an interesting angle

It's entirely possible that no one is mad or tryna (sic) pretend this is the first time someone with lack luster (sic) abilities was turned pro, but rather, this is fertile ground for a good ribbing and collective laugh at the ridiculousness of the elevated status of "professional" in skateboarding.
I’m wondering if we can’t find a better word than ‘pro’ for the niche Beatrice is filling. I think the problem is we don’t have the language to describe Beatrice’s role.
‘Professional’ does imply a certain level of skill (it does in any other profession), so if she’s getting a board based on other qualities too (which doesn’t bother me, the goal is to flog bloards) there should maybe be another term we can use to describe that.
‘Brand ambassador’
‘Bankable Personality’
‘Dill Buddy’

Shuv in. Who do you see doing shuv to 5050 on any rails? It’s not about the stature of the trick, it’s shuv in and out on a rail which is unique compared to how most “better” skaters skate. Trick selection vs difficulty is a thing. You probably didn’t like Pops Fully Flared part?
Expand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand Quotey’all need to let this thread go. we’ve all fetishized getting “good enough” to turn pro at some point, but we’ve always known that skill has never been the deciding factor in getting a board. anyone with more skill that didn’t turn pro either lacked something else or their skate community failed them.
stop gatekeeping something from the outside. we’re just consumers to brands, regardless of our level of commitment to “the culture.” they just wanna bring money in and support their homies when/if they can. they’re not trying to maintain some idealistic standard of “pro skater” like this thread expects them to. they’ll give a board to whoever they decide to, as they always have.
fact is: she’s pro. let it go.[close]
Lol they really mad and tryna pretend the first time someone with lack luster abilities was turned pro.
Shit funny.[close]
It's entirely possible that no one is mad or tryna (sic) pretend this is the first time someone with lack luster (sic) abilities was turned pro, but rather, this is fertile ground for a good ribbing and collective laugh at the ridiculousness of the elevated status of "professional" in skateboarding.[close]
Yes that is possible but unlikely (and I agree on the laughability). It's more probable that some ppl are actually mad, because A. this is Slap. and B. some of the tones observed in this particular thread were clearly salty and not playing into the "laugh at the ridiculousness".
My bad. I wasn't saying everyone was mad or that you are mad, but the fact that u took this personal and wanted to point out some slang that I typed makes me think u might b mad haha
she’s a bad skateboarder with every resource to make herself better at her fingertips. it’s been 10 years and she has simply not put in the work - not even remotely closeNot to harp away at people but if you meet her (its good to get out) you might be suprised you know. That's why life is is sick. Interviews and putting a personality out thru the a camera lens is not for me, I can't do it. Not all that can pull it off will have time for you after its said and done. I'm possibly raining a a type of parade here that many times in my life I'd cheerfully take part in. So take this with a grain of salt. ( i guess I'm saying that she might not be able to shine in the ways you want online, I know I couldn't)
a few people mentioned eunice chang as a comparison, but at least eunice is personable and likable, but most importantly AWARE she’s not the best
beatrice has none of that humility. literally zero.

i know this horse is being cremated and i’ve given my fair share of kicks, but i really just can’t stand her over exaggeration of “style.” the dill arms are annoying, but the bending of the knees off the curb (or anything) is something else. i have a friend whom i love dearly and he can’t/won’t bend his knees for shit and we’ve all laid into him many times and he just can’t do it. it’s like throwing a stick into the sand it landing straight up and at this point i’d really see that and know he’s trying his ass off just having fun and doing what he loves as opposed to this.

Agreed, there has been great skating since forever. But I guess my point is more aimed towards the climate of being pro today. I totally understand what you're saying.

91 and women's skateboarding progressing faster than men's were bad choices. The difference between skating in 91 and 89 was massive.
I think Beatrice should be pro (for reasons already brought up in this thread a thousand times) but don't have to ignore everyone else or change reality to justify it.

Bea/FA is showing the issue - where is the motivation to get good when skills like B's can get you paid? Look how bonkers skating went from 83 to 93 to 03 - why? because to get paid your skills had to stand out.

Wow man maybe it’s time to exit stage left off the internet.
I get that her whole schtick is that she's flaming all the haters and generating backlash (on purpose), but regardless of anything, she's just not going to remain relevant with her set of skills. I'm old enough to remember the Sheckler hate and then how he carved out a respectable career by remaining a good skater for a very long period of time, but this isn't like that. This is just a flash in the pan and a desperate attempt to remain relevant. That being said, the shoe is nice looking.She's been associated with fa for 10 years, officially on the team for 5. I think it's a bit long to call a flash in the pan.
dills values changed from making simple tricks look good to making simple tricks while looking good.
she will never loose relevancy. she's 27 ill give her a view years until she finds a spot working at a skate company while still having FA boards reminiscing a time that was never legendary or impactful. hating on a woman in a predominantly men activity always seems a little childish but criticism should still be allowed.
she has her fans and I dont think women criticise her at all. I dont feel like she will loose any momentum until she gets roasted by a female skater

dills values changed from making simple tricks look good to making simple tricks while looking good.
she will never loose relevancy. she's 27 ill give her a view years until she finds a spot working at a skate company while still having FA boards reminiscing a time that was never legendary or impactful. hating on a woman in a predominantly men activity always seems a little childish but criticism should still be allowed.
she has her fans and I dont think women criticise her at all. I dont feel like she will loose any momentum until she gets roasted by a female skater

Maybe pro women or whatever don't criticize her but women who skate do. Every subset of skaters has it's skaters who are actually informed and have critical opinions of what they're seeing. Not every female who skates is rah rah anything goes because look girl on skateboard. Doesn't make them haters, they just give a shit about how they're represented.
This chick doesn't represent me that's for sure. The biggest problem with her is she's super immature. It's shocking she's in her late 20s the way she acts. The lack of self awareness relating to skating is pretty wow.
If she's purely trolling it's just as lame. No one likes those types. There are also way better female skaters out there, and without a lot of spots to go around on teams it's tragic she has one.
Let’s play a little game. It would be super easy to guess all of the tricks we will see in her part, I feel like we could get close to 75% accuracy. That’s too simple, let’s guess tricks we will not see in her part(shit, career)Wonder what she considers a part... Maybe 4 tricks and a lot of slow and vibe shots to make it last 5 min
I’ll start with two, back tail and nollie flip...
She’s an average skater with an inflated ego. But it’s a bad look for a bunch of mostly white guys to be hating on her. You’ll always look bad. So just ignore her and praise a great Black female skater 😁

Just because she's associated with FA doesn't mean she's successful, we can go through any number of skaters over the years who had a relationship, got put on a team, and did nothing of note. If you don't have the skills to shut up the haters, you just validate them. The Fat Bill/Dill era of skate is just boring as fuck, just becoming rinse and repeat.She's been associated with fa for 10 years, officially on the team for 5. I think it's a bit long to call a flash in the pan.Expand QuoteI get that her whole schtick is that she's flaming all the haters and generating backlash (on purpose), but regardless of anything, she's just not going to remain relevant with her set of skills. I'm old enough to remember the Sheckler hate and then how he carved out a respectable career by remaining a good skater for a very long period of time, but this isn't like that. This is just a flash in the pan and a desperate attempt to remain relevant. That being said, the shoe is nice looking.[close]
She's maybe rinsed that cracked iPhone 4 comeback now tho. iPhone 4 came out 13 years ago if you managed to still have one that works at all it shows you look after your stuff.
I feel bad for her. You guys are mean. I'd rather make fun of Yuto's hairstyle.

Sammaria actually rips and is a great ambassador for black female skaters as well.She definitely deserves more shine than she’s gotten. It’s stupid no one picked her up after Enjoi. Meow is cool but it’s kind of a step back for her.
Beatrice has that “pray to God to invoke evil on my enemies” vibeIs she a christian? In the monotheistic religion of christianity, their only god created everything including satan so of course it’s not a stretch for someone of that faith to not see what is wrong with praying bad on someone when they can’t see that they worship a god that created the ultimate in evil.

Never forget that she mirrored a clip to make it look like she switch ollied up a 3 stair.
But this is not something new. Why do people are offended by Beatrice being pro? It happens in the music business, people with a huge talent for composing and playing instruments that never get a deal with a discography. On the other hand, people that can’t sing or know nothing about music theory but they are at the top of the lists. Even with YouTubers. People who are inept or lack in editing skills get more views or fame than people who know about cinematography and create masterpieces. If Beatrice was winning skate competitions only with her bag of tricks against some other top tier pro skaters I would understand the rage but she is doing her thing with her friends. In business, there is something more important than skills, call it being likeable or being marketable (I don’t know the word in English). This hater behavior is lame.

this is a display how fucked up modern discussions are. the most toxic way of pointing out double standards only to make one thing that is wrong right.
Why would we not complain about talentless musicians becoming rockstars? yes its equally stupid and questionable. I dont like it either. how does this make the argumentation less right?
people double standard everyone just to end up having the worst morals.

it happens also in music. ice spice rubs her pussy on stage and has the whackiest bars and as soon as someone points it out its misogyny and sexualizing her even though she does that intentionally all by herself. they will say its right because blue face also got rich off of rap.
but that doesnt make her a better rapper. and critic on Beatrice isnt about who she is. but her sponsorship is.

I totally understand that. it has always been that way. you have a group of friends that mostly become a team from a natural friendship and through that sell product. I doesnt really matter if you are the best skill wise its about having fun together and bringing that to the table.

just landing tricks doesn't make you "good." I say that because style is a huge factor. Consider Jeff Dechesare. Weird you'd compare a grom style to adult style.

(Lack of)Reading comprehension is why so many people in thread could see through your commentary. I am overly opinionated, but I'm not a human version of a red flag. Also you know who ginwoo is.

Breanna Geering is really good. Way better than Beatrice and even if you don’t like her skating, she’s always improving and coming out with new stuff. She’s not the best woman in skating but so what?

I'd agree with the celebration thing and honestly think that may even be coached somehow. Like ok remember when you land to give a big fist pump for the cameras. Sora has even given himself a signature sword slice celebration. Wouldn't mind if that all went away.

if you can switch flip like her, bs wallride and Kickflip an 8 you are a decent enough skater. she also has some sick combos in her part. I like her[close]
Neither of them are on Rayssa, Vitoria, or Nicole’s level.[close]
just landing tricks doesn't make you "good." I say that because style is a huge factor. Consider Jeff Dechesare. Weird you'd compare a grom style to adult style. Vitoria and Nicole are actually a pleasure to watch regardless of their skill level versus rayssa; they also actually skate street. Your takes are so wild dude. that said not shocked you'd mention rayssa...[close]
She’s the best female sponsored skateboarder right now, why wouldn’t someone mention her?[close]
Bro. The thread might've been deleted or I was blocked from it, but no one is gonna forget it. Is ginwoo the best male skater rn?[close]
That’s a shame, I didn’t want it deleted.
It didn’t do much to help people like you not to come off as overly opinionated, emotionally weak, and lacking in basic reading comprehension.
Unfortunately, I have no clue who Ginwoo is. Grant Taylor is the best male skater right now.[close]
Maybe it’s the hair and the age and being unfamiliar with the gender of the name, but I thought Ginwoo was a female[close][close]
I'd like to see her skate a cutty ass spot that's not literally perfect and see how she fares. She's a good skater, hopefully she grows out of the grom style. But don't act like a she out here in these streets because she hit a blown out spot in CA. BIG for women but in the scheme of things it's basically an SLS rail.

No offense but you couldn't be more wrong. I don't dislike her, I just think you ppl obsessed with contest skaters are missing the entire point. I hope she grows into it because yes she rips. You prob think ginwoo has great style too. Who are your other favorite skaters? I'm really curious if you think that's good style. Also as an aside, can someone talk to these SLS girls and tell them they don't have to celebrate when they land every trick? It's fucking off-putting.[close]
I'd agree with the celebration thing and honestly think that may even be coached somehow. Like ok remember when you land to give a big fist pump for the cameras. Sora has even given himself a signature sword slice celebration. Wouldn't mind if that all went away.[close]
What's wrong with having ideals and voicing them about something you love? I def don't give a shit what anyone here thinks and I'm not someone to just agree w the majority opinion to please others. Also my takes aren't all that unique from others here really. Ginwoo is very good technically so doesn't that = style for you like you said? Can't have it both ways. I could list many more skaters w good technique who have zero style or skateboarding IQ.

So people that think Rayssa has a good style are -
White knights
Obsessed with contest skaters
Yes men who think everything is amazing
Can't form their own opinions
Part of the 'toxic positivity culture of skating' (lol you know what website you're on right?)
Can't differentiate style from technical ability
Must also think Ginwoo has a great style
These are all your talking points. If you're self aware enough to know that your opinions aren't mainstream then maybe just be aware enough to realise that it's just your opinion rather than strawmanning everyone who disagrees with you to death in an attempt to be 'right'.
Jesus this thread is tedious
I guess maybe you could compare it to vert skating because it just happens to be a much smaller number of participants and similarly the best also have to skate contests. I don't think anybody disagrees with you and would prefer more street/videos vs contest coverage but skateboarding as a whole is transforming and you're just going to see the effects of that more on a smaller group.

Part of the change tho with sls getting smaller is they seem to have cut out much of the young adult group of women so a positive could be they focus more on traditional filming etc and it does seem to be opening up a bit with funa getting a thrasher cover and momiji having a thrasher interview with street photos
I guess another part of the problem would be there's like a thousand male pros and only like 50 female so just because of numbers half of them are going to end up in the contests because that's where the opportunity is.

I think it's wild that Nelly's Limo parts have near zero flip tricks, but her kickflips in Instagram clips are a thing of beauty. She's got a damn near perfect style and smile too. Her charisma/likability stats are maxed and she's on one of the most exciting teams. While "the best" is subjective, she's definitely my favorite female skater and gay SOTY.
Beatrice could at least have a nice style. But not...I rather watch Jen Soto, Vitória and that girl who skates with Tiago.

I love what she does but I'd def love to see more flip tricks and less ride on grinds in her parts. But you're right her vibe is great, I've never heard the smile thing said about a male skater, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt. I like her fits a lot; it's not a fashion show for her which I really appreciate as someone who dresses like a 12 year old boy from 1995 when I skate. Also she's def got the best Hesh style rn amongst women. She looks really natural. Vitoria prob gets the female fresh crown imo. Nice balance. Nelly's kickflip is so wet.

Not sure if I have either, but if I saw a male skater with a winning smile of that caliber, I'd definitely say, "Damn. [Male Skater] has a really nice smile." Max Palmer definitely has good smile, not perfect, but still heartwarming.

just landing tricks doesn't make you "good." I say that because style is a huge factor. Consider Jeff Dechesare. Weird you'd compare a grom style to adult style.

That’s a shame, I didn’t want it deleted.
It didn’t do much to help people like you not to come off as overly opinionated, emotionally weak, and lacking in basic reading comprehension.

Maybe it’s the hair and the age and being unfamiliar with the gender of the name, but I thought Ginwoo was a female[close][close]
I'd like to see her skate a cutty ass spot that's not literally perfect and see how she fares. She's a good skater, hopefully she grows out of the grom style. But don't act like a she out here in these streets because she hit a blown out spot in CA. BIG for women but in the scheme of things it's basically an SLS rail.[close]
yeah damn itd definitely be way sicker if rayssa skated some dusty ass 3 stair out the front of an east coast liquor store instead of a 16 stair rail lol we get it sleepy, you're the most core dude here[close]
If that's a shot at my steezy ass kickflip down a dusty three stair outside of a liquor store on the east coast, on my insta you're on one. If so, show me your first kickflip down any set of stairs. Let's compare.

That is naive, especially knowing they're similar in age but judging by the amount of coverage that Samarria gets I wouldn't be surprised if other black girls who are into skating couldnt name her. This is why it's sick to have more black girls as pros. I don't see why a naive/unfortunate comment of this kind would disqualify Beatrice from having her career. And I really don't think hooking her up is going to lead to some "anyone can be pro" slippery slope bullshit. We're already there lmao and it has little to do with Beatrice, look at the youtube/internet weirdos who have "pro boards."
Edit: not saying you were making that argument @GardenSkater77 , just putting it out there due to dumbshit comments like "does that make me pro lol"
That probably was watched by quite a few, I don't recall watching it though (I didn't watch much of any of the Vice show if that was when she was on it).
I just think it's crazy to get mad that FA wants to put a black girl on the team. The whole skill level hating leaves such a sour taste in my mouth, especially when it's clear she does actually skate. Sure she's done kooky things and doesn't skate a lot, but this is FA we're talking about lol

I'm gonna warn you this is a long fucking post because I've been thinking about this ever since that gifted hater hit piece was posted back in the spring.
Yeah I'm under the impression that FA sees her as a person who brings a unique identity that adds to the diversity of the team, as they dont have any other black women (or any other women at all, right?) on the team. I do honestly think that Dill feels it's a positive thing to do for her and for skaters like her to see themselves represented a bit more by getting a spot on a wildly popular company. And this is why I don't think this is the big disaster people always want to turn it into here... I agree with Dill that it's a positive thing.
I also honestly believe that if this isn't for you, if she is too much of a kook, or if her skating just isn't all that impressive to you, it's not that hard to stop beating a dead fucking horse here. My entire fucking Instagram feed is skateboarding essentially and I never see Beatrice... until I log onto SLAP and read a bunch of bad jokes and complaints about seeing too much of her and how undeserving of attention she is. Fuck off and pay attention to something else in skating if it bothers you, she's not for you anyway. The vast majority of pro skaters are people who do not look or skate like Beatrice, there's so goddamn much if it lol. If you can't be stoked about someone else getting a piece of the pie, at least let it be and just enjoy the skating and people you can find it in your heart to n tolerate.
And if you just can't stop hating, at least for the sake of the discourse here please find better targets. They're all over the damn place if you look hard enough. Even other beat to shit horses like Braille deserve it more. The Braille Skateboarding youtube channel has 5.8 mil subscribers, over 900k instagram followers, they charge ridiculous board prices, Ricky Glaser is "Pro," and the company is run by a scientologist. Beatrice has less than 2k followers on YouTube, 90k on instagram, does the same trick too often, and doesn't know her (very limited, mind you) skate history.

At least it's not a 5050 front shuv?[close]
I agree that Dill/FA is definitely milking the demographic and following in the footsteps of those that did it before him (Reynolds/Baker), but in this case it doesn't annoy me (for a few reasons).
For one... I also don't find her particularly skilled or outgoing, but at the same time she hasn't comitted the number of completely egregious fuck ups that the amount of negative attention she gets would suggest. To me, she's a real skateboarder who dresses a particular trendy way, says some dumb shit maybe, and makes a career out of doing the same trick over and over. In my opinion, that makes her just like everyone else on FA barring a few, or at least exactly like aiden mackey and sean pablo, both of whom have received hate but arent jokes to the level Beatrice is here. So, why the extra hate for her? Are we really that mad at her skill level?
Another reason I'm not mad at it is that I think it's positive representation for black female skaters, or any skater interested in seeing skateboarding become accessible to all. Just because she isn't the most talented or killing interviews doesn't mean she can't have a place in skating. Skating should be diverse enough to include her. I honestly see her having a platform as a way of making skating more accessible to people who've been historically all but absent from it., marketing decision or not.
If you call that tokenism, I think you're missing the bigger picture. Representation is the bigger picture here... not FA board sales.
Edit: and before people point out the very true fact that there are other black female skaters with more talent or who are truer to skating going under the radar, I know this. But Beatrice having a boatd doesn't take their place in skating from them. Hopefully her career opens those spots up where they hadn't previously been for those other skaters who deserve them.

If people like it, it’ll stay.
If they don’t, it won’t last.
No one buys things they don’t like.
On a side note…

To be fair, Samarria rode for Enjoi. Nobody cared about Enjoi.[close]
Again, if I was in an under represented group of skaters, I would keep tabs on what other under represented skaters are doing / up to. Enjoi, even in 2017, was doing more than Meow was doing in 2017 (bigger distribution, social media reach, more big media reach with Vice/KOTR). It’s not like Samarria was some underground Animal Chin ripper type ripper that 2 people knew of. Arin was going viral at this point as well, sans (I think) board sponsor.
My thesis is that Beatrice does not care about the ritual of creating video parts or even feeding off of the vibe that others create through their video parts. How many would-be pros film parts before ever entering the industry because it’s what they want to do? How many skaters go out and film after working 40 hours a week on some Dawn of the Dead ‘they’re just drawn to it’ subconscious drive, even if they know this work won’t ever even get them on a shop sponsor?
Not only could she not be bothered to film her own video parts, she apparently couldn’t be bothered to know about Samarria (or worse, is aware of her but for whatever reason feels she’s more valid than Samarria?)
This is the reason people dislike Beatrice, outside of the fact that she fucking sucks on a skateboard. She seemingly does not have respect for it.

I truly don't think it's a race thing here, I think it's the massive egos which ppl have said over and over and over. I think it's disingenuous to claim it's racism that drives it. Slap is a lot more progressive than it used to be, and ppl also are big fans of plenty of other skaters of color who are mentioned throughout every thread. We also make fun of white guys / women with similar my shit doesn't stink attitudes and kook behavior.
King is a great example, zero direction with the brand, low effort zero creativity graphics, the expectation ppl will just buy your shit because of who you are despite your style being ass. It's just a lack of respect for the entire process. King won't last. Why is nak's ego so huge is the real question. Riding tyshawn's coattails but some how deluded into believing he's also the shit.
People love Una Farrar and she’s not exactly pushing the envelope either. But the reason people probably like her more than BD is not because she’s white, but because she seems nice and humble, not venomously egotistical.
Anyway, I’m not gonna judge anyone until the footy drops Thursday. If they’re both in it, I presume they’ll both have stepped their games up from the past footage they’re judged for. With that said, how I and others will perceive them afterwards, will be based on the amount of effort they seemingly put in, and how they carry themselves regarding the response said footage gets.
@PatrickSkateman you’re cool and I’m not picking a fight here, but you really can’t see why people here might poke at KB (who’s a pile but everyone loves to watch skate).. and Tyshawn, who’s a landlord bulldog breeder? Mikey Taylor and Bam get more shit than they do, and those dudes haven’t even been relevant skaters in years.

I truly don't think it's a race thing here, I think it's the massive egos which ppl have said over and over and over. I think it's disingenuous to claim it's racism that drives it. Slap is a lot more progressive than it used to be, and ppl also are big fans of plenty of other skaters of color who are mentioned throughout every thread. We also make fun of white guys / women with similar my shit doesn't stink attitudes and kook behavior.
King is a great example, zero direction with the brand, low effort zero creativity graphics, the expectation ppl will just buy your shit because of who you are despite your style being ass. It's just a lack of respect for the entire process. King won't last. Why is nak's ego so huge is the real question. Riding tyshawn's coattails but some how deluded into believing he's also the shit.[close]
Tyshawn has pretty good style.
The verdict is still out on King. No one seems to want to give it a chance.
I didn’t like Limosine at first, but now I get it.[close]
How you could even compare those two companies is baffling. Zero effort versus doing things the right way and having an appealing team to boot.
except Alex Olson I have never seen a white pro skater on a high fashion runway.
I think black skaters have through black american culture more connection to things thats used to be not cool for skateboarders for a long time. capitalism and everything that comes along with it gets glamorized in modern hip hop.
its a celebration of being able to look cool and wealthy.
white people do that also all the time but in skateboarding those guys do not find a home at a company.
skateboarding used to be a thing of dirty nerdy anti establishment kids.
i dont know if I should be happy that Carlis and Dashawn were walking for the Louis Vuitton runway show.
I like that they are getting money and are being treated nicely outside of skateboarding.
but its not that white skaters get these opportunities at all.
I think some fashion house no I think most fashion houses use black skateboarders as streetwear marketing entry.
if you get a big ego from that you dont get it. money doesnt make you. it should take care of your family and make you a good living but you are not better or worse than anyone.
social climbing in LA seems crazy these days.

People just aren’t falling for this kind of stuff anymore. Is it more progressive to pretend someone is better at skateboarding than they actually are? There are other non white female skaters that aren’t playing that angle and aren’t milking it, hence the criticism. There’s no novelty to it, the skating is what counts, not your ethnicity or sex.[close]

I had to stop following Stevie Williams because the constant endless flexing on having money to compensate for being 4'-3" tall just got to be too much. That's 90% of his insta. We get it dude, you are supposedly breaded, whatever. Stop styling on people when the footy you put out that impressed everyone was in the mid 90s.

Ladies and gentlemen, Urtripping is Beatrice
agree and its funny how racism and sexism seem to bubble up to the surface here
I'm sincerely rooting for Beatrice's upcoming part to be solid, and I think some of the venom she's receiving is a bit too much. But I also think some people are telling on themselves a little bit by acting like it's an arbitrary standard to want to celebrate a woman for their body of work.
People love Una Farrar and she’s not exactly pushing the envelope either. But the reason people probably like her more than BD is not because she’s white, but because she seems nice and humble, not venomously egotistical.
Anyway, I’m not gonna judge anyone until the footy drops Thursday. If they’re both in it, I presume they’ll both have stepped their games up from the past footage they’re judged for. With that said, how I and others will perceive them afterwards, will be based on the amount of effort they seemingly put in, and how they carry themselves regarding the response said footage gets.
@PatrickSkateman you’re cool and I’m not picking a fight here, but you really can’t see why people here might poke at KB (who’s a pile but everyone loves to watch skate).. and Tyshawn, who’s a landlord bulldog breeder? Mikey Taylor and Bam get more shit than they do, and those dudes haven’t even been relevant skaters in years.

Are we required to totally look past someone's obv narcissism and kook behavior because they aren't white? Just clap and cosign it too? Do what you want but that's weirder than just being for real when there's more than enough evidence of what said person is like to warrant being critical of them. Especially if they seemingly hold a lot of sway but also don't really seem to deserve it.
I think I'm over the hump of expressing my problems with her status in the industry. If she is willing to looking herself in the mirror and accept the checks they are willing to give her, then that's that. There's no point in outwardly expressing criticism if she isn't receptive. It's just a net loss after that. You are wasting energy and stressing yourself typing mean shit out and the stuff she's getting online is mentally damaging.

came here just to say Zach Allen is still bad
I think we agree but I just don't have the energy to say it anymore. She's like almost 30 also so it's not like she will take criticism to improve her output at this point. I think her personality is a result of her industry patting themselves on the back thinking not telling her hard truths is real "support." I mean Vans knew what they were doing posting another 5050 front shove.Expand QuoteI think I'm over the hump of expressing my problems with her status in the industry.

If she'd just shut up and stop caring what people say/arguing online, this would have blown over a while back and people would have gone back to not giving a shit about her or what she's doing. I don't think anyone blames her for taking money, and I'm sure most people in her situation would have as well.
However, she keeps posting shit defending herself and acting smug. She either truly believes she is this great skater who has earned her right to be a pro (which is delusional) or she knows she's not good enough and can't handle criticism.
The real issue here is FA making her pro, not the fact that she accepted it. Her getting defensive was just dumb and made the entire situation worse for her.

Honestly, that's kind of sad.
I think we agree but I just don't have the energy to say it anymore. She's like almost 30 also so it's not like she will take criticism to improve her output at this point. I think her personality is a result of her industry patting themselves on the back thinking not telling her hard truths is real "support." I mean Vans knew what they were doing posting another 5050 front shove.Expand QuoteExpand QuoteI think I'm over the hump of expressing my problems with her status in the industry. If she is willing to looking herself in the mirror and accept the checks they are willing to give her, then that's that. There's no point in outwardly expressing criticism if she isn't receptive. It's just a net loss after that. You are wasting energy and stressing yourself typing mean shit out and the stuff she's getting online is mentally damaging.[close]
If she'd just shut up and stop caring what people say/arguing online, this would have blown over a while back and people would have gone back to not giving a shit about her or what she's doing. I don't think anyone blames her for taking money, and I'm sure most people in her situation would have as well.
However, she keeps posting shit defending herself and acting smug. She either truly believes she is this great skater who has earned her right to be a pro (which is delusional) or she knows she's not good enough and can't handle criticism.
The real issue here is FA making her pro, not the fact that she accepted it. Her getting defensive was just dumb and made the entire situation worse for her.[close]
It would have to come from someone on a team with her or who works in one of the brands. These negative comments, valid or not, will not do anything to change her approach. She's been rewarded by the industry for her approach so no real reason to switch it up.Expand QuoteI think we agree but I just don't have the energy to say it anymore.

I watched her what youth and she seems very immature. I don’t know if she has the tools to deal with the level of criticism she is receiving. I feel like she must have come from a very religious background or her parents were really strict. She’s kinda sweet in a way. I hope she accepts what people have to say without letting it get to her. If I were her I would quietly move on. Maybe there is a place for her in the industry w/o being a faux pro.

YOU'RE LITERALLY A TRUMP LOVING HITLER 😡
Why are there people in this thread asking us to treat a black person differently to a white person? The people that are cooking her would do the same if she was white, Asian or even from outer space. If you want to call me racist then go ahead but keep in mind that I'm not white.
Secondly it's not her fault that she's pro. She got given the option to get paid to skate and took it. We need to look at Dill and Vans and think what were their motivations to make her pro
This is no worse than turning Sean Pablo pro. FA has had/has amazing skaters, but they've always been a very unbalanced team from the best skaters on their team to their worst. They have skaters who would be top pros on any brand (guys like Louie, Tyshawn, Ave, Dylan) and then guys who would lucky to be flow for most big brands (Beatrice, Sean Pablo, Aidan). It's just those people got the Supreme hype behind them.
Style has always mattered and thankfully not everyone subscribes to the jock mindset on display in this thread. Dill is a kook, but not because he's given spots on the FA team to Aiden Mackey or Beatrice.

She tracked down fat bill and started sending him her footage when she started skating after college and he was stoked on it and got dill to put her on. I don’t think being demure about “deserving it” was ever in her MO

Dill is a kook, but not because he's given spots on the FA team to Aiden Mackey or Beatrice.Style on a board matters. Being decked out in Supreme isn't in my opinion. I'd rather watch pros do tricks well over doing hard ones that are ugly. I don't think either Aidan or Beatrice skate with much style. It's not like we are talking about someone like Huf who while having limited trick selection, does the tricks he does insanely well (fast, popped and clean).

My point is that sometimes a lot of people are hyped on skaters based on their style more than their actual skill level. You can sit and try to put metrics on pro skill level (jock shit) like has been going on in this thread (like when you said she couldn't flip trick in a line), but it's harder to measure what you call "hype." It includes style and other intangibles that draw people to something/someone (like how Beatrice has a career and you don't even though you might have a "better" heelflip than her). @DannyDee you have a point with the Supreme marketability thing and I'd never mention either of those two in the same style discussion as Huf, but whether we like it or not marketability has always been a part of pro skateboarding. It's an industry based on it.
And I get why people feel her story is "hollow" as a skateboarder. It for sure wasn't a traditional pro journey, but she's not a traditional pro skater (she's not a white dude). Again, I fully recognize she's not nearly as core or purely "skateboarder" in the classic sense that other black women (like Samarria and im sure many undiscovered talents) truly are. But I still haven't read a single salient argument against the fact that one black woman in skating getting shine benefits other black women in skateboarding. This is regardless of skill. I'm sure there are black girls who see a big name like Beatrice, get into skating, then discover the marginalized history of women in skating and say fuck it, im gonna fucking do this. We can sit here and say she's not a real pro, she can't skate, etc etc but please hate on this without sounding like some old head gatekeeping jock

No fuckin way should this human be collecting a paycheque to ride a skateboard, are you kidding me
I fuckin love to imagine it. I just don't like to act like I get to decide who's excluded from skating and who isn't.
For the record I watched like nearly every little video interview she did a few years back today because I realized I'd never actually heard her speak and wanted to find out for myself if she really had these crazy narcissistic vibes. Very positive, very unassuming, a bit naive at worst. In the Jenkem interview, when asked if she saw herself as a role model/special pro she replied (paraphrasing here), "Fuck no, I wasn't even really aware of it. I just wanted to skate." Dill or Fat Bill weren't there to coach her or drape her in Supreme.
Scrolled through insta. Lots of posts of her art, poetry, one word or lyrical captions. Lots of love from the likes of Elissa Steamer (one who gets it) on her pro board posts. Noticed she's amped and pissed in her story, probably because she's being informed of posts like this in the days leading up to a video release:Expand QuoteNo fuckin way should this human be collecting a paycheque to ride a skateboard, are you kidding me[close]

We should finally normalize being able to take and give critic no matter how a person looks.
It's crazy that we haven't.

then it needs to be explained again that the last 50 pages are not based on racism.
The whole thing is a sick loop hole and explains pretty good why america will never heal from its history.

Well, women don't exist as a single large entity that support each other always in a male space no matter what. We are way beyond that in skateboarding even if we aren't in many other areas socially.
If you're a fan of women's skating you have every right to be upset that despite many examples of the bar being set higher for 30 years, this is where we are at. It is literally infuriating and I know you just do not get it because you aren't a female skater.
Keep implying that me being mad about something I care about, that you think is clearly different to men caring about men's skating, is irrational. Nothing has changed at all. You clearly see mens and women's skating as different while I see skating as skating and see zero reasons why women shouldn't be just as dope, just as proper, just as worthy.

It sets the bar for female pro skaters extremely low after being told for twenty years that females suck and will never equate to men or be as good due to physical limitations. It erases female contributions before her too for everyone but those of us who disagree. It's upsetting that despite the fact so many females have killed it she's somehow the most visible and popular. Like what don't you actually get. Andy Anderson is inspiring to ppl who'd be kooked off this board in 5 seconds and he doesn't even have an actual attitude. this is such a stupid fucking conversation.[close]
She has in no way erased any female contributions to skateboarding to me or to probably a large portion of people who also don’t have a problem with her. You seem to be speaking for all female skaters. What I actually don’t get is why some posters on here seem extremely upset over someone who also skates. She’s not hurting anyone. There’s so much anger.[close]
Man, with all the women in this thread or on slap I guess you're right! I should just shut the fuck up, and let all the other women here speak up and share their opinions. I assure you that you do not care about women's skating like a woman who actually skates for real does. My opinion isn't speaking for all female skaters and it never would, but it's more valid than yours. This is far more nuanced than you think. Keep being an observer.[close]
I’m definitely not telling you to shut up. I just can’t grasp why you’re not in full support of any skater who is inspiring to others, especially a female. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but all this anger (from you and others) seems ridiculous. I’ll let you all continue to be mad. I just wanted to say I didn’t have a problem with her to maybe add a different voice in here.[close]
Well, women don't exist as a single large entity that support each other always in a male space no matter what. We are way beyond that in skateboarding even if we aren't in many other areas socially.
If you're a fan of women's skating you have every right to be upset that despite many examples of the bar being set higher for 30 years, this is where we are at. It is literally infuriating and I know you just do not get it because you aren't a female skater.
Keep implying that me being mad about something I care about, that you think is clearly different to men caring about men's skating, is irrational. Nothing has changed at all. You clearly see mens and women's skating as different while I see skating as skating and see zero reasons why women shouldn't be just as dope, just as proper, just as worthy.
Y'all shit all over men you don't think deserve it but here I am calling out another female for it with receipts and examples, and you are shitting on me. Save it for your wife or girlfriend, not that she deserves it either.[close]
I never implied shit. I merely said I didn’t have a problem with her and you responded to me dumbfounded on how that could be. I don’t care who skates. As long as they’re not hurting anyone it’s all good. Don’t lump me in with the morons of this site. I’m definitely not shitting on you. YOU replied to me being positive and now you’re all up in arms accusing me of a bunch of shit I never said or implied.

I wasn’t aware there was any other reason to skate than for fun. I’m off for now, but at least I got you to stop spewing anger towards Beatrice for a few minutes. Let’s just hope she doesn’t start wearing a durag, y’alls heads are gonna explode.
Look, congrats to her, and the people she inspires. Can't hate on someone for getting checks to live what they are aspiring to do (unless they are a bad person, which doesn't apply here).Expand QuoteExpand QuoteStyle has always mattered and thankfully not everyone subscribes to the jock mindset on display in this thread. Dill is a kook, but not because he's given spots on the FA team to Aiden Mackey or Beatrice.[close]
If style matters then what's your actual point, also please highlight all the jock stuff you're referencing Beatrice.[close]
My point is that sometimes a lot of people are hyped on skaters based on their style more than their actual skill level. You can sit and try to put metrics on pro skill level (jock shit) like has been going on in this thread (like when you said she couldn't flip trick in a line), but it's harder to measure what you call "hype." It includes style and other intangibles that draw people to something/someone (like how Beatrice has a career and you don't even though you might have a "better" heelflip than her). @DannyDee you have a point with the Supreme marketability thing and I'd never mention either of those two in the same style discussion as Huf, but whether we like it or not marketability has always been a part of pro skateboarding. It's an industry based on it.
And I get why people feel her story is "hollow" as a skateboarder. It for sure wasn't a traditional pro journey, but she's not a traditional pro skater (she's not a white dude). Again, I fully recognize she's not nearly as core or purely "skateboarder" in the classic sense that other black women (like Samarria and im sure many undiscovered talents) truly are. But I still haven't read a single salient argument against the fact that one black woman in skating getting shine benefits other black women in skateboarding. This is regardless of skill. I'm sure there are black girls who see a big name like Beatrice, get into skating, then discover the marginalized history of women in skating and say fuck it, im gonna fucking do this. We can sit here and say she's not a real pro, she can't skate, etc etc but please hate on this without sounding like some old head gatekeeping jock

I think it's warming seeing how much Beatrice idolized Dylan Rieder and not others.
Durags look cool and almost every white person thinks so.

Listen I don't disagree about people from different backgrounds looking up to each other regardless of race or whatever but this conversation isn't about race in any way shape or form. I can't help you to understand why, you'd have to read the entire thread yourself and comprehend it I guess.
I hope one day little boys can look up to a female pro because she skates well and is proper and killing it, just like female skaters who actually skate and care, have looked up to male skaters for the last 30 years as an example of what skating is because that's all there was.
Beatrice is not the pinnacle of women's skating. Not even close, despite her being represented as such in a way no other female skater has been. There are far better examples to look up to and that's everyone's point in this thread.
If you want to see inspiration look up Steamer, Brevard, Dal Santo, Soto, Vitoria, Torres, Sablone, Reyes, etc etc etc. Beatrice is the least inspiring female skater that's ever been turned pro.

I know most female skateboarders since im skating for 20 years now and watched like every full length. Im on your site.
I just dont think its beatrice fault. and there should be enough space for more women to get the same type of love.
the only thing she can do is more aware of herself being in a lucky position. but I dont want her to hate herself, lose her sponsors and hate how she is part of a company that she loves.

Like I said keep derailing a serious topic about female skating with stupid jokes, it's so cool to do. It's also very on brand for a certain type of man here.[close]
its not a joke I swear to god. represantion is important and we are heading into the right direction.
beatrice didnt look up to Kareem or Elissa. she looked up to Dylan rieder.
I hope some white boy looks up to beatrice. or a black boy looks up to Elissa.
that would be the biggest achievement we can get

I think the main reason ppl hate dill is because aside from being a kook, he was one of the first to realize that skill and ability were secondary to hype. He sort of ruined what makes a pro skater pro in order to make more money.

The whole race thing is a bizarre obsession. Dill isn't an academic, he's a washed up addict who likes to hear himself talk. When you get to that level of success inevitably you kook yourself if you try too hard to be someone you aren't. I mean look at his art, or his godawful Ted talk. it demonstrates that he's not someone who is even comfortable with who he is, and I'm sure he's got a lot of white guilt in there, as do a lot of users on this board.Expand QuoteExpand QuoteI think the main reason ppl hate dill is because aside from being a kook, he was one of the first to realize that skill and ability were secondary to hype.

Yeah sorry if this has been mentioned but the real interesting piece behind this is that Dill or whoever felt the Beatrice was marketable enough to be pro get signature lines, etc all based on her personality.
idk man for all the people screaming about race and shit its strange they don't at all find it odd that a bunch of already successful corporate dickheads are just pushing her to the forefront for a pay check. I wish i could find the interview but I remember Dill saying that FA was for black skaters and Hockey was for white. Thats the most backwards shit ever. Not only is he talking about segregation but its just a white dude pushing the marketability of black kids for profit.
I tried to listen to a podcast he got on recently called 'its all bad' and I couldn't make it past like 7 minutes if that. He immediately starts virtue signalling about race and colonization, bringing up books he read and authors on the topic. That's is all well and good, but it just came off as so unnatural like he HAD to let people know how hip and aware he is of the struggle. idk man almost seems like hes a little more aware of how much hes using these young black kids to fund his pellegrino addiction . If anyone should have white guilt its people like him.
Hopefully the upcoming vans video she has a part in is sick and changes a lot of people’s minds

I’d give Tom Green a board for making “Freddy Got Fingered” that movie was brilliant and he definitely made the skating through the mall scene in the opening just because he wanted to skate. It’s an absolutely pointless scene - he starts at home and goes to the mall to meet his parents (who he lives with) at the bus stop so they can give him a new car for his trip.
B should come skate with me.
I got a million ledge combos she needs to know.
Not hating just saying.
Example. Not many people know this but shuv front crooks nollie shuv is actually the easiest ledge trick in the history of.
It's just hard to grind because it all happens so fast.
Style has always mattered and thankfully not everyone subscribes to the jock mindset on display in this thread. Dill is a kook, but not because he's given spots on the FA team to Aiden Mackey or Beatrice.

I didn't mean to derail this conversation. I really have an internal battle of what it means and takes to be pro. If we are a sport then it should be the most talented skaters which Beatrice is unfortunately not. If it's an art then it should be the most inspirational skaters which Beatrice seemingly is. It's such a grey area and I can never come to a conclusion of what it actually takes to be pro. Probably half and half. Should she be pro in my opinion? No

100%! One of the best thing about skating is that in my personal experience race has never been brought up while skating. I've skated since 2003 and no one's ever remarked on the colour of my skin and now I actually think about it that's actually pretty damn cool. Similarly I grew up watching white skaters and idolising them but I never once thought "oh I dont know if I should enjoy this because he's white". It sounds sooo cheesy but it's that age old saying of that "we are all just skaters. We're in it together" etc.

Only non-skaters really get confused with the lack of racism and the cultures crossing. It was similar for me being a person of color and starting to skate in the mid/late 90s, the only racially driven remarks id hear were from non skaters saying skating is for white guys or athletes saying shit like "whats up tony hawk?! haha" but as far as the skate community goes, race has never existed or who i get inspired by.
There are more non skaters involved in the game now more than ever so we got to appease to all the avenues of things (race, gender, sexual preference, etc....) rather than just tricks and style and cool songs like we used to.

Alexis has been crushing it since PJLWHL and 100% earned everything she has. and not cuz shes a girl. its purely because she skates very well and buttery as fuck. and shes a girl! Shes a skater tho.

The amount of people who think skateboarding is a completely post-racial, colorblind institution is crazy to me. It's definitely a progressive space, but how many Black women have ever been in photos, videos, on teams? Can any of you name any other black female pros outside of the two mentioned in this thread already without googling names? If lack of representation or inclusion doesn't matter at all, then why aren't there more black female skaters? They all think Gino's style is overrated and he just doesn't get them stoked?
I'm honestly curious what some of you think about this. Outside of actual outreach with programs like skate after school, representation is a MAJOR form of exposure to skating. You see your physical appearance, Parts of your culture, someone recognizable in an activity, you're more likely you are to connect to it. Please, if im wrong here, offer a coherent explanation, anyone.
I'm stoked that there are black skaters in this thread who've been inspired by a diverse group of people. But I dont think that negates all need for representation. If we want to champion skating as this place that welcomes all, then we wouldn't have posts like we have in this thread. And I'm not saying don't critique her or her skating, but it's been more than that. At least in my opinion...
I know that Beatrice didn't do things "the right way," and that she's not really all that skilled when compared to the dominant demographic in skating. These are valid critiques. I've already said that her style isnt all that great in my opinion. Do I think Samarria is the one who has proven herself in traditional fashion "more worthy" of a shoe deal? You fuckin bet. But somehow, I'm just not all that mad at that Beatrice has this career when considering the bigger picture, and I think it does nothing to harm skateboarding.
The most compelling argument I've read here is that Beatrice cutting corners kind of negates all the hard work ofother black females and femaleskaters in general

why is it this hard to understand
slikk slikk
@Bumba To answer 1): the lack of representation is due to a lack of involvement (and yeah, therefore skill) which stems from both institutional and direct racism/exclusion. I don't think skating was a very welcoming place for POC until the Late 80s at the earliest, probably. The fact that it's been predominantly male and white is exactly why I think it's sick that Beatrice, a non white male, is being supported regardless of her skill. It's another step forward.
2): Colorblindess does not do much good for anyone, regardless of what Sam Jackson says. This has been argued by black academics, civil rights leaders, and many more. Humans are also wired to be social and connect with each other through shared culture, that's literally how we're wired, so it makes sense that seeing someone who you associate with your culture doing something novel will help you connect with that activity. That's just logical, really. Again, I'm stoked you found skating despite skating being predominantly white, but your experience does not trump human nature, and I'm sorry if that insults you. Genuinely. I am sincerely not arguing "the only way black girls will ever skate is if Beatrice has a career." I'm saying it helps you get into an unfamiliar hobby by seeing someone familiar participate. Case in point, I'm pretty sure it was Jerry Hsu that mentioned being stoked to see an Asian pro (can't remember the name) in his epicly latered. He got extra stoked because it was so uncommon. I could be totally misremembering that, but I don't think you'd have to look hard for other examples. I'm sure many white women credit Elissa and other women for getting them into skating, or at least playing a significant role in their attraction to it. I don't think that's an insulting statement, I'm sorry...
3): you ask the perfect question: "at what cost?" What is the cost? Is there a real cost we should actually be concerned about? The most compelling argument I've read here is that Beatrice cutting corners kind of negates all the hard work other black females (and female skaters in general) have had to put in. But again, that is assuming that one black girl having a career erases history. I fully believe that it opens doors... jt doesn't shut them (past or present). Also, if almost 100% of skaters don't have an issue with black girls at their local, why do so many have an issue with one with her name on a board? In my opinion, "because she's not good enough" is a "faded take."
4) I am still waiting for someone to actually explain how Beatrice having a career takes away from others' opportunities. I mean, unless you're arguing that there are only so many spots available for POC in skating... Again, in my view it's completely the opposite: the more we normalize seeing and celebrating black female skaters, the more we'll see them in skating. This diversity benefits all POC in skating, unless we assume there is a quota and only a certain number of them are allowed to be pro. Now THAT'S tokenism.
I'm sorry for the essay too, but it's not something that's easy to discuss for me personally and it takes time to articulate (I'm just a bad fucking writer I guess), but it's a worthy discussion. I wish it could have been more clear and civil, but this is slap.
Edit: lastly, I think the argument that "she sets a bad example for young black skaters" is a weak one, too. I think it's weak due to the lack of faith it has in black girls who see her and decide to skate. You think that after they get into skating, they won't push themselves further than 5050 front shuvs just because that's what Beatrice does? Talk about insulting...
Hey I know better than to enter a discussion with you in good faith. I'm good on that.
Edit: I'll actually give you a reponse: because Elissa Steamer herself has been stoked on Beatrice. Show me where Samarria has expressed being bummed about her having a career and I'll think about it. I see that you crossed out female/black female skaters though, this discussion isn't about your sorry skating dude.

This is the most faded take ever. Let me speak as a person of colour.
1) Is the lack of repsentation to do with racism or skill? I know the reason I've never been sponsored is because of my skill level and not the colour of my skin. You're also talking about an activity that has for the longest time been male centric and also more popular in countries that are predominantly white so the top of the pyramid will reflect that to some extent.
2) Why do you say that I automatically connect to someone of the same skin colour? To me that's insulting. I remember when Samuel Jackson said something along the lines of "we will only beat racism when we stop talking about race" and it's so true. When I look at a skater I'm not analysing their skin colour or if they look like me. I look at the tricks they're doing and sometimes that inspires me and sometimes it doesn't. As a street skated if I see an Indian skater shredding vert then I'm not going to be as inspired as watching a white guy (or whatever colour) skating the obstacles I want to personally skate.
3) Inclusion is a great thing but at what cost. At what point are we just filling token spots that need to be filled? BA isn't pro because he's gay, he pro because he fuckin rips and that's the way it should be. Inclusion begins at ground level, not pro level. If we're in a world where a person who's a different colour, sexuality, or gender can't go to their local park out of fear or uneasiness then there's an issue. I know 99.99% of skaters don't have an issue with anyone turning up to their local that's a different colour, sexuality or gender.
4) On your last paragraph you says it does nothing to harm skating which I agree with to some point but I find it's such a kick in the teeth to the other people that grinded their asses off to get a pro board. The perfect example of this is look at Brayan Albarenga. The guy is a generational talent and he can (seemingly) barely get flowed boards.
Sorry for the essay

I think at this point it's more impactful for women to see other women skating well (of any color), than it is for men seeing other men skateboard who also are the same color as them.
Which is why it's lame that Beatrice is the woman that other women see and she is the defacto standard for women outside of skating, regardless of the color of their skin. If it's a skin color representation thing than there are far more skilled women of color for girls to look up to. Urtripping isn't totally wrong with their take tho.
I just think that if it's about representation than show us the best, and give that person a platform. If it has to include race, find a better black female skater that respects the art and culture and puts out fucking street parts. Not a past her prime, kinda sometimes skater, who's also a model, that thinks she's going to be some sort of an icon and is using skating to get there.

Nailed it. I think people are looking past that fact that she's 28. What were getting right now is prime pro Beatrice. The part that's coming out for Vans could very well be the pinnacle of her ability. I guess we'll have to see the standard of skating when that drops
@Bumba I'll do the same as I did before.
1) the effects of decades of racism in skating and over a hundred years of institutional racism didn't disappear at the millennium (speaking about America as an American). The fact that nobody can name more than two pro black skaters that are female illustrates this. There is still an overwhelming majority if skaters (pro or not) that are white. Don't have numbers for you, but I'm damn sure. I'm not equating the present to the past, I'm trying to factor in the past's legacy.
2) you may find this hard to believe, but I'm a teacher at a school where I'm the racial minority, so yes... I understand being around racial diversity. Here, you seem to be so hung up on the idea that I'm arguing that representation is absolutely necessary to inspire others. I've already explained how I'm not doing that, so I won't do it again.
3) I'm talking like that because I've heard female skaters openly and proudly state how Elissa has opened doors for them and other women in the industry. I don't understand how that's backward. Also, see 2).
4) I'm not saying people hate black women. I might be saying I think it's overkill and that there is some bias at play when some folks choose to target and denigrate a black woman across social media platforms because she got some vans colorways for the first time when they've been giving them out to men forever. Like I said before... "she's not good enough" ignores so much context.

If you'd like to give these people some shine then please feel free to plug their names and I'll check out their skating.
@sle_epy I know she isn't good at skating haha, but just attacking her doesn't do much to sway me.
You said she is the defacto example for black females, why is that? She is one of two pros, the options are obviously limited. You also said it's more important for girls to see the best technically skilled skaters... but why, necessarily? Is it because she is a bad example in your opinion? If you think so, I am curious about what you think about this: "... I think the argument that 'she sets a bad example for young black skaters' is a weak one, too. I think it's weak due to the lack of faith it has in black girls who see her and decide to skate.

Also, do Samarria, Rayssa, Nicole Haise, etc not have platforms? I still don't see how Beatrice having one takes away from them or from young female skaters who can see them, too. I'm still convinced she is not doing more harm than good here.

I might be saying I think it's overkill and that there is some bias at play when some folks choose to target and denigrate a black woman across social media platforms because she got some vans colorways for the first time when they've been giving them out to men forever. Like I said before... "she's not good enough" ignores so much context.

If adidas isn’t doing anything with Nika, maybe Vans can use the marketing on the next Beatrice colorway to put her on. Random thunder flow girl found a way to put together a street editExpand QuoteExpand Quote@Bumba I'll do the same as I did before.
1) the effects of decades of racism in skating and over a hundred years of institutional racism didn't disappear at the millennium (speaking about America as an American). The fact that nobody can name more than two pro black skaters that are female illustrates this. There is still an overwhelming majority if skaters (pro or not) that are white. Don't have numbers for you, but I'm damn sure. I'm not equating the present to the past, I'm trying to factor in the past's legacy.
2) you may find this hard to believe, but I'm a teacher at a school where I'm the racial minority, so yes... I understand being around racial diversity. Here, you seem to be so hung up on the idea that I'm arguing that representation is absolutely necessary to inspire others. I've already explained how I'm not doing that, so I won't do it again.

Expand Quote@sle_epy I know she isn't good at skating haha, but just attacking her doesn't do much to sway me.
You said she is the defacto example for black females, why is that? She is one of two pros, the options are obviously limited. You also said it's more important for girls to see the best technically skilled skaters... but why, necessarily? Is it because she is a bad example in your opinion? If you think so, I am curious about what you think about this: "... I think the argument that 'she sets a bad example for young black skaters' is a weak one, too. I think it's weak due to the lack of faith it has in black girls who see her and decide to skate. You think that after they get into skating, they won't push themselves further than 5050 front shuvs just because that's what Beatrice does? Talk about insulting..."
Also, do Samarria, Rayssa, Nicole Haise, etc not have platforms? I still don't see how Beatrice having one takes away from them or from young female skaters who can see them, too. I'm still convinced she is not doing more harm than good here.[close]
I said she was the defacto pro for all women outside of skating due to her platform. I think for younger girls black or otherwise that her attitude is horrible, so no I wouldn't want her to be the biggest influence on young female skaters.
Here we have an almost 30 years old woman acting like a petulant teen, not a great look and not who I'd want my kid looking up to. I think her platform is way way way bigger than theirs, because it is.
She's held up as something special inside and outside of skating, and the other women you listed aren't really despite being better at skating, and being better examples in general in terms of how they act and present themselves.

My bad on the misquote. I know she's been talking some shit on Instagram but I'm am positive that is all a response to the daily shit she gets from countless faceless idiots online, right? I personally can't fault her. Also, I think you should watch her Jenkem vid interview. I did not get bad vibes.
I think her platform is so big because she models too (hence the vogue interview). No doubt her sponsors push her because of how far she reaches... but again, I'm still not convinced she's a purely bad example for girls, inside or out of skating. My kind might be changed by some really terrible shit she's said as evidence, but if im being honest I haven't seen it. Here, or on her social media when I looked.

OK last thing lol: as a white poster who's been VERY active in this thread, never once have I (at least intentionally) insinuated she's the monolithic, end all be all representative for black female skaters. In fact, what I have maintained since I entered the discussion is that her being one of very few current black female pro skaters can and reasonably will lead to more black females entering skating. The argument isnt that she should be or is the ONLY person who can get black girls involved in skating, it's that her having a career will probably have a hand in leading to more. Its already been acknowledged that people can get into skating by seeing those from other backgrounds skating (Bumba). As it stands, there's a significantly slim number of black girls represented (or just involved in general) in skating. I think Beatrice could inspire more of them to skate, and I don't think that's a problematic take in any way.
I get you though, that's why it's really important to have people like you, sleepy, and Bumba commenting on this.
You lost me dawg. She kinda is just a social media influencer anyway. Lots of "pros" are. I said we should all be hating on them instead like two days ago.

THIS DUDE IS A TEACHER
slikk slikk
Most of the dudes that bring color skin to the table are white.i unintentionally read this in borat’s voice upon first glance & it translated perfectly.
They says every time: she is a black woman and represents others black women. Dont ask for themselves if the girls give a damn for his opinion tying to be cool politic guy.
They says again: she is a black woman, she is a black woman.
"Look at me...Im good with people of color."
Expand Quote@Bumba To answer 1): the lack of representation is due to a lack of involvement (and yeah, therefore skill) which stems from both institutional and direct racism/exclusion. I don't think skating was a very welcoming place for POC until the Late 80s at the earliest, probably. The fact that it's been predominantly male and white is exactly why I think it's sick that Beatrice, a non white male, is being supported regardless of her skill. It's another step forward.
2): Colorblindess does not do much good for anyone, regardless of what Sam Jackson says. This has been argued by black academics, civil rights leaders, and many more. Humans are also wired to be social and connect with each other through shared culture, that's literally how we're wired, so it makes sense that seeing someone who you associate with your culture doing something novel will help you connect with that activity. That's just logical, really. Again, I'm stoked you found skating despite skating being predominantly white, but your experience does not trump human nature, and I'm sorry if that insults you. Genuinely. I am sincerely not arguing "the only way black girls will ever skate is if Beatrice has a career." I'm saying it helps you get into an unfamiliar hobby by seeing someone familiar participate. Case in point, I'm pretty sure it was Jerry Hsu that mentioned being stoked to see an Asian pro (can't remember the name) in his epicly latered. He got extra stoked because it was so uncommon. I could be totally misremembering that, but I don't think you'd have to look hard for other examples. I'm sure many white women credit Elissa and other women for getting them into skating, or at least playing a significant role in their attraction to it. I don't think that's an insulting statement, I'm sorry...
3): you ask the perfect question: "at what cost?" What is the cost? Is there a real cost we should actually be concerned about? The most compelling argument I've read here is that Beatrice cutting corners kind of negates all the hard work other black females (and female skaters in general) have had to put in. But again, that is assuming that one black girl having a career erases history. I fully believe that it opens doors... jt doesn't shut them (past or present). Also, if almost 100% of skaters don't have an issue with black girls at their local, why do so many have an issue with one with her name on a board? In my opinion, "because she's not good enough" is a "faded take."
4) I am still waiting for someone to actually explain how Beatrice having a career takes away from others' opportunities. I mean, unless you're arguing that there are only so many spots available for POC in skating... Again, in my view it's completely the opposite: the more we normalize seeing and celebrating black female skaters, the more we'll see them in skating. This diversity benefits all POC in skating, unless we assume there is a quota and only a certain number of them are allowed to be pro. Now THAT'S tokenism.
I'm sorry for the essay too, but it's not something that's easy to discuss for me personally and it takes time to articulate (I'm just a bad fucking writer I guess), but it's a worthy discussion. I wish it could have been more clear and civil, but this is slap.
Edit: lastly, I think the argument that "she sets a bad example for young black skaters" is a weak one, too. I think it's weak due to the lack of faith it has in black girls who see her and decide to skate. You think that after they get into skating, they won't push themselves further than 5050 front shuvs just because that's what Beatrice does? Talk about insulting...[close]

Hell. 50 / 50 front shuv is a hard trick. I’ve never done one.

Most Beatrice defenders I've seen online are white dudes that don't watch POC female skating in general and think defending her is the be all end all.

I just think this idea that there isn't that many black girls skating so we have to celebrate the one that the big shoe company highlights no matter what is regressive.

Let’s be real. Not every skater has the skills/opportunity to turn pro. There’s limited space in a team’s pro roster and for a long time it felt like any even smaller space for minorities. Maybe it’s just me but growing up it looked like there’s only one or two spaces for black dudes on a team even less for women. Girl only had Jeron, did alien workshop? Did creature? Did Es? Did Enjoi? Did krooked? Plan b? Anti hero had just pfanner. Emerica had Preston and that was short lived. Ray barbee was already too old. Other than baker and Dgk where you had to portray a stereotypical gangster there wasn’t really a lot space for black skaters to become pro on a real team.
I’m annoyed with all these people’s inability to see that tokenism for the sake of representation has negative effects. Shit like this makes some marginalized people feel our skills don’t actually matter, we’re just a skin color place holder for marketing. You question your self worth. I’m I at where I am because I achieved it or did I just receive it?
pretty wild that this is her 3rd shoe, especially when you consider how many people were just fired due to Vans recent underperformance. really absurd the more I think about it.Even more wild when you realize is actually 4th
I'd love to hear what other woman skaters think about all of this.

Girl only had Jeron? :o I'm not sure what time period you're referring to here, but I doubt the owners of these companies were even thinking about tokenism for marketing purposes when putting together their core roster. They were just putting their friends on/skaters they liked. If anything I'd think tokenism in skating is a more recent development as it gets increasingly corporatized.

They were just putting their friends on/skaters they liked. If anything I'd think tokenism in skating is a more recent development as it gets increasingly corporatized.[close]

Let’s be real. Not every skater has the skills/opportunity to turn pro. There’s limited space in a team’s pro roster and for a long time it felt like any even smaller space for minorities. Maybe it’s just me but growing up it looked like there’s only one or two spaces for black dudes on a team even less for women. Girl only had Jeron, did alien workshop? Did creature? Did Es? Did Enjoi? Did krooked? Plan b? Anti hero had just pfanner. Emerica had Preston and that was short lived. Ray barbee was already too old. Other than baker and Dgk where you had to portray a stereotypical gangster there wasn’t really a lot space for black skaters to become pro on a real team.
I’m annoyed with all these people’s inability to see that tokenism for the sake of representation has negative effects. Shit like this makes some marginalized people feel our skills don’t actually matter, we’re just a skin color place holder for marketing. You question your self worth.

It’s quite simple; stop being a hater. There’s a difference between being critical and being downright upset about someone getting something for what is perceived to be no skill. It really doesn’t effect anyone else and it’s just being salty.

At this stage we just need this Vans video to drop. If she has last section and comes through and lives up to the hype then all the hate will be put to bed. If she comes though with 2 tricks then all the hate will be justified. Even worse if she comes through with 2 tricks that we've seen her do before on similar spots she's skated before then she'll get absolutely cooked

Gnarred, I’m super happy with my lodge skillets as well. The Dutch oven goesExpand Quotehey guys so what cast iron pans y’all using?[close]
Lodge
This is my first cast iron skillet - and I've been cooking for 40+ years. I had been yearning for an 'artisan' cast iron skillet, the kind with the smooth interior finish, but I just couldn't talk myself into spending $100 to $200 for one.. Cooks Illustrated loves the Lodge skillet as do many other reviewers which really made me think, why do I need to have an 'artisan' skillet?
When Sur La Table advertised this new line from Lodge, I thought this was a skillet that offered many of the same features as the artisan lines but at a very affordable price.
I seasoned the skillet per instructions from Serious Eats and have been using it a couple of times a week since. It browns food beautifully and I feel that it has kicked my cooking up a notch or two. To clean the skillet, I wipe it out first, then give it an gentle scrub with a nylon pad and a touch of Dawn. After a few more uses, I plan to try "the egg test" - the biggie for judging how well a skillet has been seasoned.
Tonight I cooked bacon - Costco's extra thick slices. This pan easily fit 8 slices and notice how evenly cooked they are. The slices were not rearranged during cooking, only flipped over several times during the process.
Do I still want an artisan skillet? Maybe. I may get an 8" size and see if it can replace my small Teflon skillet. But with this 12" Lodge, I have found my go-to skillet for meal prep both on the stove (induction) and in the oven.
Tbh this whole pro skater thing seems pretty appealing. Do a couple of tricks a year, get taken out for dinner, model for some photos, get paid. Where do I apply? I'll happily fill any token minority spots on a team

Both Vans and Beatrice are happy with her career so might as well let it go. Hopefully, Vans and other big companies invest in more black girls skaters and not just end it here. I spot lighted two flow girls who put out parts a few pages back so these companies with their full time talent scouts should be able to find a good amount. Sure Beatrice may be breaking ground but giving her 4 colorways is like if Crazy Rich Asians broke ground for mainstream asian american films and instead of investing in other stories, they just continued to make Crazy Rich Asian sequels. We need to move on to an Everything Everywhere All At Once. Time to actually push forward instead of people congratulating themselves for supporting Beatrice and not actually watching or platforming other skaters in the movement.
Same. I think pushing one story whether it be in movies or skating is lazy on the part of the companies. They have the resources to do more for sure. Laying the responsibility of representation on one person is unfair to Beatrice and to the girls that need possibility models.Expand QuoteBoth Vans and Beatrice are happy with her career so might as well let it go.

Ironically, hating on her as much as some of you have has provided the foil necessary to really bring her attention and boost her career. It is almost as if Vans is doubling down on their support for her to spite those who can't stand her. They're saying, "fuck you," it seems.
Also, from what I understand she doesn't have a full part in this Keepsake vid, just clips... that's gonna go over so well here I'm sure hahaha

and people need to stop using hate instead of criticism
The correct move from Vans is not the "fuck you" you're talking about. They better let Nelly shine (i have no doubt she will) and show people that supporting an influencer is ok but supporting a ripper is better.

Tbh who cares, it's not like in 15 years anyone is going to be like you know what, we were wrong about her she was a ripper or whatever. She's going to end up in another post of "worst skaters to ever go pro", or "least deserving skaters to go pro."
Everything she is doing has been done but she acts like she's the first ever to accomplish anything despite there being women prior to her. Once she loses her clout due to age or being out of the industry it's not like anyone is going to rewrite history for her benefit.

Okay I promise I’ll shut up until it’s out.. but I just want to bump this post. She says she has a part in Keepsake, some sources are saying otherwise. If she has a minute or less footage, does that count as a part? Does she deserve to be called out for claiming it one?
Also, her saying it’s “the first of many” opens up a whole new discussion.. no skater knows how long they’ll be on the board, so it’s a tad presumptuous at best. And what if that turns out to be untrue and she doesn’t drastically increase her productivity? Does she deserve to be called out for that?
This isn’t about her skill level, but at what point does it become justified to critique someone for making potentially false claims? Or is that perpetually regarded as hating or pocket checking?

I'm not the most reputable source, as I can't even find the Instagram post I remember seeing AND it wasn't crystal clear even from that post if her part is "full" or not. But I'll try to answer your questions. My apologies if this is too annoying or dense for some of you guys, but it will be my last post in this thread (I mean it this time. Shit's been bad for my health lol).
I'd say that if her clips don't live up to certain standards, it's fair enough to call her naive to some unrwitten rules in skateboarding. I would rightly expect many to hesitate to call her footage a "part" if it amounts to less than a minute of screen time. Although, I also think it's more than fair to mind that these standards have had decades to develop, and that men have had decades to progress to a point where they can live up to them. Black women have not had a real solid opportunity to catch up yet, as their participation is relatively new and currently limited in number... A fair point to acknowledge, yes?
If it then later turns out that she doesn't live up to her claim of putting out many more parts in the future, I think it'd be fair to critique the fact that she didn't back that big claim up. No doubt about it! Yet, I ALSO think it would be fair to acknowledge the fact that Beatrice ever being in a position to put out widely seen parts is noteworthy and progressive for skateboarding. This is clear when considering the current and historic lack of representation for black women in the industry, mentioned earlier. Justified claim?
You see, I think there have been plenty of critiques treated with fairness in this thread. The refusal by some to recognize any kind of significance in her career is what's unfair, in my opinion... I'll add that I also think it's unfair to attack a person's character when they get defensive online after being harassed across platforms, despite their being some fair critiques of particular comments (iphone screen).
But wait, why I think that it doesnt do justice to future female/black female skaters to claim that she's setting the bar too low for them, right? And how it's unfair/reductive to past and present minority skaters to claim that skateboarding is post racial and purely colorblind? Doesn't that take away from their achievements by retroactively erasing very real barriers created by the white majority in America that are bigger than skateboarding and affect even the most progressive spaces? I think it's fair to keep that in mind, too, unless you don't believe in those boundaries... or if you truly just feel like skateboarding has been that radically accepting of those other than white men that it defies them. In which case... agree to disagree.

Ok, VERY last post. Show me where I said this, anywhere in this post or any prior posts. I'd genuinely like to know if I mistakenly implied that (I do remember writing that I personally think Samarria is more deserving of such a huge career, but my posts are dense and annoying so I don't blame you).
With regards to comparing her to black male skaters who made it despite societal disadvantages, my only argument has been that it's fucking sick they've had such huge impacts despite being excluded for decades. The only comparison I've truly made comes in my last post, where I mentioned that black women are newer to skating and less active in number than men (including black men and other males belonging to minority groups), so the level hasnt wuite caught up YET. Again, is that not true? Should it be completely disregarded when making these comparisons, in your opinion? What I'm saying is compare, but compare without ignoring context, or claiming "it's just the skating."

The only comparison I've truly made comes in my last post, where I mentioned that black women are newer to skating and less active in number than men (including black men and other males belonging to minority groups), so the level of skating hasnt quite caught up YET. Again, is that not true? Should it be completely disregarded when making these comparisons, in your opinion? What I'm saying is compare, but compare without ignoring context, or claiming "it's just the skating." That's what I'm trying to do, and in doing so, I can see why there are positives that come with Beatrice having a career in this industry.
*Vans rep in danny devito voice*
so anyway I just started sponsoring
Can we all give Adrianne Sloboh her 💐 now? She absolutely kills it, and she played college hoops.I'm rooting for her. She seems to be off cariuma and back in blazers. Hopefully she can get taken serious and supported by Nike.
@Urtripping I think we have the same hope for skating but I really don't like how the companies are going about it. I just don't like when people who don't give a shit about female skating scold people who are confused by this poor marketing. Meanwhile they don't put any effort into seeking out and supporting women poc skaters other than Beatrice. I think it's time we expand and it seems it will have to happen on the grass roots level.
Word. 4 shoes just seems overkill tho. Especially cause they seem to put zero effort into making her look awesome. Actual friends who skate together actually suggest interesting spots and tricks to display the best parts of someone's skating. Vans posted another 50 shove knowing it will cause drama and hate. I know its expected of a corp but its still gross.Expand Quote@Urtripping I think we have the same hope for skating but I really don't like how the companies are going about it.

I hear you. I hate that I was scolding people because that's not my intention, but I do get worked up because I also actually give a shit. I know skate companies are doing the bare minimum when it comes to supporting black girls in skating, so that's why I just can't be mad at vans doing something. I'd rather support that effort than try to drag it down, i think it does more good than bad. I know people don't agree, but that's ok.

Okay I promise I’ll shut up until it’s out.. but I just want to bump this post. She says she has a part in Keepsake, some sources are saying otherwise. If she has a minute or less footage, does that count as a part? Does she deserve to be called out for claiming it one?
Also, her saying it’s “the first of many” opens up a whole new discussion.. no skater knows how long they’ll be on the board, so it’s a tad presumptuous at best. And what if that turns out to be untrue and she doesn’t drastically increase her productivity? Does she deserve to be called out for that?
This isn’t about her skill level, but at what point does it become justified to critique someone for making potentially false claims? Or is that perpetually regarded as hating or pocket checking?[close]
I'm not the most reputable source, as I can't even find the Instagram post I remember seeing AND it wasn't crystal clear even from that post if her part is "full" or not. But I'll try to answer your questions. My apologies if this is too annoying or dense for some of you guys, but it will be my last post in this thread (I mean it this time. Shit's been bad for my health lol).
I'd say that if her clips don't live up to certain standards, it's fair enough to call her naive to some unrwitten rules in skateboarding. I would rightly expect many to hesitate to call her footage a "part" if it amounts to less than a minute of screen time. Although, I also think it's more than fair to mind that these standards have had decades to develop, and that men have had decades to progress to a point where they can live up to them. Black women have not had a real solid opportunity to catch up yet, as their participation is relatively new and currently limited in number... A fair point to acknowledge, yes?
If it then later turns out that she doesn't live up to her claim of putting out many more parts in the future, I think it'd be fair to critique the fact that she didn't back that big claim up. No doubt about it! Yet, I ALSO think it would be fair to acknowledge the fact that Beatrice ever being in a position to put out widely seen parts is noteworthy and progressive for skateboarding. This is clear when considering the current and historic lack of representation for black women in the industry, mentioned earlier. Justified claim?
You see, I think there have been plenty of critiques treated with fairness in this thread. The refusal by some to recognize any kind of significance in her career is what's unfair, in my opinion... I'll add that I also think it's unfair to attack a person's character when they get defensive online after being harassed across platforms, despite their being some fair critiques of particular comments (iphone screen).
But wait, why I think that it doesnt do justice to future female/black female skaters to claim that she's setting the bar too low for them, right? And how it's unfair/reductive to past and present minority skaters to claim that skateboarding is post racial and purely colorblind? Doesn't that take away from their achievements by retroactively erasing very real barriers created by the white majority in America that are bigger than skateboarding and affect even the most progressive spaces? I think it's fair to keep that in mind, too, unless you don't believe in those boundaries... or if you truly just feel like skateboarding has been that radically accepting of those other than white men that it defies them. In which case... agree to disagree.[close]
Say that again in 3 sentences max and maybe I’ll read it.[close]
Apparently it’s monumental enough that a black woman would ever skateboard that we should not measure her against other female skaters (or I guess black male skaters ability to excel regardless of societal disadvantages) bc that would do a disservice to the groundbreaking work she is doing by just being sponsored[close]
Ok, VERY last post. Show me where I said this, anywhere in this post or any prior posts. I'd genuinely like to know if I mistakenly implied that (I do remember writing that I personally think Samarria is more deserving of such a huge career, but my posts are dense and annoying so I don't blame you).

I guess in singling out black women as not having time to catch up implies they are on a different track than other women skaters who have caught up an surpassed her in the time she’s been sponsored.

I don’t see how that could be remotely their plan. There have been plenty of skaters dogged with negative opinions that no one wants to touch. Vans doesn’t even obliquely acknowledge the controversy either. The only thing I could possibly imagine is that she had people negotiate her an extremely savvy contract that mandated colorways or her other colorways moved enough units to give her more.

Marie De Courcy (formerly Myley) no longer getting shoes after 2 or more years flow by vans. Even if you heavily back Beatrice, you have to admit Vans is doing dogshit for the movement to get non traditional skaters in the spotlight. In the midst of layoffs, they decided to give another colorway while never bumping Chandler or Marie up from flow. They must have decided in the meeting that one trans rider (Cher Strauberry) is enough representation.
I’m not even speaking in skill level right now. If the narrative is to get people who don’t traditionally get seen in skating, they should put on skaters who put out parts and try. Also, put on more than one person so it’s not the entire group of people depending on a controversial skater.Expand Quote(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53061867070_c4b35d6839_z.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/2oQTWr5)Untitled (https://flic.kr/p/2oQTWr5) by (https://www.flickr.com/photos/162334525@N08/), on Flickr

The vibes that I got from Marie's ig is that she's maybe getting Asics now. Her most recent clips are skating in those Dime Asics runners that just came out and Asics commented on her most recent post, which she commented back to. I'd guess that she quit Vans to skate for Asics.Still really doesn’t change the fact vans slept on her for years but was willing to market both her and chandler in campaigns to seem like they were down for the cause. Chandler talks about it in their vent city episode. Hope ASICS works out for her.
Either way, this thread still sucks.

No ad hominem attack, just a little perspective from someone who is older than you.
Right now it seems like the goings-ons of this public figure, whom you've never met but is participating in an activity that you also do (albeit on a grander stage), is a huge deal. You're a skater, a female one at that, and that is a large part of your identity, so much so that you're willing to spend hours arguing with strangers about this and that, aligning with folks named slikk slikk. You're passionate about it, even if you're unfocused and don't really have a lucid point at the end of the day. I've been there, trust me. We all have. It's understandable.
But as life goes on, it throws things at you. You focus more on your actual career, you get into serious relationships, tragedies happen, you deal with bad injuries, more and more ppl you shared giggles with die, etc. You get tired, aware. You get more conscious about how others perceive you and how you present yourself. You look back at things that you once put a lot of investment in, trivial things that felt so important to you at the time, and you cringe, realizing that some of the opinions you once held on to so fiercely simply aren't that significant. You probably still feel them in your heart, but you evolve to the point where you just laugh and shake your head or make a snide remark here and there.
You hopefully also figure out who the bad guys and the good guys are, and realize that the bad guys are the ones you should be zeroing in on. There's no scandal here. Nobody's been injured. It's not that serious. This lady gets paid to ride a plank of wood around the globe. Beatrice will retire at some point and business will go on as usual. Things will continue to progress. More and more talented women, of all races, will be given their rightful place as faces of skateboarding brands old and new.
You seem like a really cool person and I am glad that you found your way here with us. Relax a little.

You get more conscious about how others perceive you and how you present yourself. You look back at things that you once put a lot of investment in, trivial things that felt so important to you at the time, and you cringe, realizing that some of the opinions you once held on to so fiercely simply aren't that significant. You probably still feel them in your heart, but you evolve to the point where you just laugh and shake your head or make a snide remark here and there.
You hopefully also figure out who the bad guys and the good guys are, and realize that the bad guys are the ones you should be zeroing in on. There's no scandal here. Nobody's been injured. It's not that serious. This lady gets paid to ride a plank of wood around the globe. Beatrice will retire at some point and business will go on as usual. Things will continue to progress. More and more talented women, of all races, will be given their rightful place as faces of skateboarding brands old and new.

This might be the most utterly condescending post I've ever seen here.
I used to do 50-50 front shoves. Even tried to film one for a part in 98 but broke my board. Gonna do one again soon just for the fun of it.
Actual question, has any legit sponsored skater done a 50-50 front shove in a legit video that you can think of? Would love to check some others out.

I wanna see more 50-50 front shuvs
I’d rather see that in a line than a fucking tre flip at this point. I hope her whole part is just one stomped out 50-50 front shuv after another. 10 trick line of nothing but the most beautiful executed frontside 50/50 grinds to frontside shove it’s all in the same curb with all the homies cheering in the background. Slap pals getting BGP and all that. Just some really merry Christmas vibes. Everyone smoking indica instead of sativa. Just chilling the fuck out.

Will Hunting thought in his heart that his passion, opinion and stance were totally valid until Dr. Sean Maguire offered unsolicited life advice in the form of a speech that inspired Will to question everything he believed and leave his stagnant Boston life behind so he could follow his true love and find happiness. Did you watch the movie?
I think this exchange encapsulates what I am trying to get across to you.
You all should skate together and squash the beef
The best trick is that front side 50/50 grind front shuv is the deep end. It’s the vibe.
I haven't heard that Chandler interview yet but damn that sucks of Vans. I do agree that Vans was sleeping on Marie and they could've been promoting her way more, especially since she was always posting sick ass clips in Vans and always rocking their latest releases. She's one of my current favorite skaters and always looked good in a pair of Crockett Highs.Still really doesn’t change the fact vans slept on her for years but was willing to market both her and chandler in campaigns to seem like they were down for the cause. Chandler talks about it in their vent city episode. Hope ASICS works out for her.Expand QuoteThe vibes that I got from Marie's ig is that she's maybe getting Asics now. Her most recent clips are skating in those Dime Asics runners that just came out and Asics commented on her most recent post, which she commented back to. I'd guess that she quit Vans to skate for Asics.
Either way, this thread still sucks.[close]
Threads decent. At least people are saying what’s on their mind. You have the rest of the board to bullshit on shoes and gear, who’s of what company, etc
If Beatrice is getting people to buy shoes, then the marketing is working for Vans. Whether she deserves colorways or not because of her skill level (or lack of), Vans chose to highlight her. If others in a similar background/lifestyle as her want to start skating because of her, then that's rad!
We know other heads in the industry that have skirted by with praise & product over the years even when their skill level was noticeably below their contemporaries. They either A) knew the right people or B) had charisma that was charming to people. Maybe a combination of both? Seems like people could argue for either in Beatrice's case depending on how you feel about her.
Beatrice still has room to grow as a skateboarder, so instead of shitting on her about her "lowering the bar" (even though many of us may want to because her technical ability could improve) let's acknowledge it for what it is. We can empower skaters we're fans of and let cases like Beatrice'a run their own course. Let her prove to us if she measures up or not.
Especially when women skaters out there could use more male support to be in this zone. We can celebrate Adriana, Arin, Rayssa, and more without throwing heaps of shit at Beatrice, which will net a positive result for women skaters' aspirations in this industry.
If they see us (the skate community) crucifying Beatrice for this, it may push more people away instead of being taken as a valid critique of nepotism/favoritism. Think about how it's perceived and not just how it is!

Jimmy is cool tho. Ethan Fowler not so much. And Cory is a dork. Jerry Fowler is not his brother and was way better at skateboarding than his not brother. I feel like he has likely done a very nice 50/50 front shuv but I have no proof. I dropped out of school to work in a sawmill. Do you want to buy some mushroom gunmies? Or beer?

Honestly amazing this thread got to nearly 60 pages. The fact of the matter is she’s just not great at skating compared to her female peers or really any average 13 year old at the park who’s been skating for a few years .
Her attitude is more of the issue and it should be condemned no matter any profession . The second you’re in a position of notoriety in any industry and start talking trash back to the instagram haters you’ve lost. I know there’s a lot of facets to dissect in relation to the hate Beatrice specifically whether it’s the obvious sexism or racism but for the most part the majority of the hate comments on her stuff are in regard to her lack of ability on a skateboard .
The fact that she responds with comments trying to demean people via social status like having a broken iPhone screen just shows she has bad values and other comments like how she doesn’t pay attention to skating proves she knows why she’s getting the hate but doesn’t care. She knows she sucks but someone out there is buying it so shes secure.
Long story short is skaters pointing out the obvious isn’t Gonna change her trajectory currently , so why are we paying attention ?
man, spent the half day starting to fix a car that I bought a couple months ago in which the water pump with only 35k miles on it gave out and spewed coolant all over the parking lot of the medical office where I had an appointment. Never done a timing belt and water pump before but I don't have the dough or frame of mind to pay a garage to fix it. then the washing machine that i bought last night, to replace the one that shit the bed a few weeks ago, ended up having a monster leak. Luckily I thought to strip anything of value out of the old one before tossing it into the scrap yard because I needed some of those electronics and hoses. Spent the other portion of the day taking apart this new to me washing machine, figuring out how to fix it, and putting it back together. All the while, my pretty well trained 18 month old bitch is in that adolescent return to puppy doesn't listen to a damn thing phase, going crazy every time someone walks by, hiding under the vehicles when given the come command, and whining while I'm sitting in puddles of stagnant, dirty washing machine run off water. Now that I'm done and complaining about about things on SLAP, she's curled up in a ball at my feet, quietly sleeping. I've gotta go to the shop and pick up the Joe Buffalo deck they've got for me. Then I'm gonna go skate for a few minutes. Do some no complies and push switch.Nice.. That’s Kerouac, right?
I back it.

Her gimmick is not skating at a pro level while somehow being deemed a professional skateboarder. The industry is even in on the gimmick; how lucky for her. Every pro is so far up her ass because they want to desperately avoid being canceled even if their take is factually correct and valid.
I can almost assure you other female pros might act one way around her, and amongst themselves completely trash her or make fun of her. There's no way in the world that isn't the case because every other woman in pro (or even flow) skating puts in more work than, and are better and if any of them are a little bitter about it it's totally justified.
Tbh you see it a lot as a female in local scenes and since it's a small world you can't have an opinion on local women's skating because if any women catch wind of it all the fakie shuv bitches get mad.
I had an entire local, secret discord of skate groupie girls talking shit about me because I said there's no reason females can't just skate like a skater and be proper and stylish, you don't have to be restricted to a low tier gendered version of style or skill.
That's all it took. I hate to say it but they have zero knowledge about skating or the culture and are really more reactionary than anything, like children and skate groupies. Lucky one of my homie girl friends actually gives a shit and gets it.
Her first time seeing Beatrice, she said and I quote: "damn she repeats a lot of tricks and they're not impressive at all", "wow sleepy, you've been skating for like 4 years and have a better kickflip and heel flip than her", "she's been skating for like 10 years? Seriously?" "Why the is she going so slow for every trick?" "They actually gave this chick a shoe? What! She's getting four color ways?!?!?"
(Btw @EdLawndale [aka Mr. Feeny], she is 27 which is Beatrice's age, I wanted to let you know because I know you think you have to be over 40 to share a valid opinion with any level of passion, conviction, or lucidity... Real close to a 'settle down' whenever a woman shares a strong, passionate opinion in a debate with a male).
It's a little surprising it happens at the pro level but I suppose that's the macro version. Can't wait for the interviews with other women that'll pop up, and what they'll say about 10 years from now when Beatrice doesn't have the clout she has rn anymore.

Beatrice's sponsorship is Vans' vehicle into high fashion. She's been printed in Vogue, Highsnobiety, W, Nylon, etc... She's designed for Louis Vuitton for Christ's sake. I don't see how this is any different than Palance having Shawn Powers for his art (although I find it immature and needlessly edgy). You don't have to like it, but that's why she's on the team. To move product. That's why pros are employed. And she does move product.
You Sle_epy are such a pick-me girl. That series of totally real quotes you just posted made me nauseous. Besides Marisa Dal Santo, every time a woman who's pro gets brought up you shit on them. Why don't YOU backlip a 16? I feel you have delusions of grandeur. So what if the locals do fakie shuvs? Shut the fuck up, let them have their fun.
Highlander game of footy, me vs you. Right here, in this thread. There can only be one, loser focuses. I don't even have a broken iPhone 4 screen to cry into. Shit was stolen.

That's all it took. I hate to say it but they have zero knowledge about skating or the culture and are really more reactionary than anything, like children and skate groupies. Lucky one of my homie girl friends actually gives a shit and gets it.
Her first time seeing Beatrice, she said and I quote: "damn she repeats a lot of tricks and they're not impressive at all", "wow sleepy, you've been skating for like 4 years and have a better kickflip and heel flip than her", "she's been skating for like 10 years? Seriously?" "Why the is she going so slow for every trick?" "They actually gave this chick a shoe? What! She's getting four color ways?!?!?"
(Btw @EdLawndale [aka Mr. Feeny], she is 27 which is Beatrice's age, I wanted to let you know because I know you think you have to be over 40 to share a valid opinion with any level of passion, conviction, or lucidity... Real close to a 'settle down' whenever a woman shares a strong, passionate opinion in a debate with a male).
It's a little surprising it happens at the pro level but I suppose that's the macro version. Can't wait for the interviews with other women that'll pop up, and what they'll say about 10 years from now when Beatrice doesn't have the clout she has rn anymore.[close]
Beatrice's sponsorship is Vans' vehicle into high fashion. She's been printed in Vogue, Highsnobiety, W, Nylon, etc... She's designed for Louis Vuitton for Christ's sake. I don't see how this is any different than Palance having Shawn Powers for his art (although I find it immature and needlessly edgy). You don't have to like it, but that's why she's on the team. To move product. That's why pros are employed. And she does move product.
You Sle_epy are such a pick-me girl. That series of totally real quotes you just posted made me nauseous. Besides Marisa Dal Santo, every time a woman who's pro gets brought up you shit on them. Why don't YOU backlip a 16? I feel you have delusions of grandeur. So what if the locals do fakie shuvs? Shut the fuck up, let them have their fun.
Highlander game of footy, me vs you. Right here, in this thread. There can only be one, loser focuses. I don't even have a broken iPhone 4 screen to cry into. Shit was stolen. I'm straight Eurotrash now; board, beerenauslese, baguette every single fucking day all day in the order; no distractions. I'll fucking behead you. Dare enter my Bergfried you fried Frau?

You're so full of shit about me. For starters those weren't quotes out of my mouth, and I could tell you 10 female skaters better than her who I'd never talk shit about, and I think I brought up a few. My most recent post here references female skaters better than her.
Why is my take on anything less valid than all the shit talking we do about male skaters here. Sit back and reflect on that. If you can come with a remotely decent argument I'd give it a listen but you can't and won't. I've talked shit about two female skaters here specifically and will continue to have an opinion whether simps like you appreciate it or not.
You realize a skate groupie is literally a pick me girl, local or not and are essentially kooks? F*** off with this skate for fun shit, I'm well aware of why some of you guys defend trash skating from women. It ain't about caring about them have fun that's for sure. Save your bullshit for someone else.
You'll behead me? That's pretty fucked up to say and you should be banned for it you fucking absolute loser, and I don't care about the context. I keep it to skating, you're a piece of shit who can't engage in a meaningful debate without personal attacks and apparently threats of violence. Go fuck yourself, your mother shoulda swallowed you. We all know why vans is featuring her, you're not some skate sage.
You know you're a skate groupie pick me boy right? White knight bullshit. Defending fakie shuvs isn't ever gonna find you shuving anything inside of them either but keep it up king!

Her gimmick is not skating at a pro level while somehow being deemed a professional skateboarder. The industry is even in on the gimmick; how lucky for her. Every pro is so far up her ass because they want to desperately avoid being canceled even if their take is factually correct and valid.
I can almost assure you other female pros might act one way around her, and amongst themselves completely trash her or make fun of her. There's no way in the world that isn't the case because every other woman in pro (or even flow) skating puts in more work than, and are better and if any of them are a little bitter about it it's totally justified.

man, spent the half day starting to fix a car that I bought a couple months ago in which the water pump with only 35k miles on it gave out and spewed coolant all over the parking lot of the medical office where I had an appointment. Never done a timing belt and water pump before but I don't have the dough or frame of mind to pay a garage to fix it. then the washing machine that i bought last night, to replace the one that shit the bed a few weeks ago, ended up having a monster leak. Luckily I thought to strip anything of value out of the old one before tossing it into the scrap yard because I needed some of those electronics and hoses. Spent the other portion of the day taking apart this new to me washing machine, figuring out how to fix it, and putting it back together. All the while, my pretty well trained 18 month old bitch is in that adolescent return to puppy doesn't listen to a damn thing phase, going crazy every time someone walks by, hiding under the vehicles when given the come command, and whining while I'm sitting in puddles of stagnant, dirty washing machine run off water. Now that I'm done and complaining about about things on SLAP, she's curled up in a ball at my feet, quietly sleeping. I've gotta go to the shop and pick up the Joe Buffalo deck they've got for me. Then I'm gonna go skate for a few minutes. Do some no complies and push switch.man i need that Buffalo deck too, gonna pick one up on monday

Also, Puff was referencing Highlander (1986), which is a Sci-Fi/Fantasy (ha!) film about a mythic, immortal Scottish swordsman who can only die by beheading; there can only be one Highlander, but his arch enemy is always trying to take him out.[close]
I said rayssa has little kid robot style and that I hope she grows out of it because her technical skills are great. I also said smthng like I hope female contest skating becomes less prevalent in terms of setting a standard for women's skating. I prefer street parts.

I dunno if rayssa is pro but she will be if she isn't already. I don't pay much attention to groms outside of contest stuff or maybe insta stuff that gets suggested.

Excellent comments. I didn't initially notice the angle iron being a few inches too short; too busy reading all those faux random/inspirational phrases.

20 pages since you responded to my nothing but positive post and you’re still complaining and playing the fuckin victim? You are 100% a pick me girl and you have so many dipshits in here falling for it.
Do you really want to have the same views as 90% of SLAP posters? They’re mostly corny, gate keeping, racists. I noticed no one said shit when she was flat out called Gary Rogers. Fuckin crickets. But Puffin posts some stupid image and now everyone is up in arms. Get fuckin real.

Wake up sleepy. This isn’t a dream. You quadoopled down on it all. We all live under the bridge.lk130 is that you?
Sleepy, you declaring that attacks on Beatrice have absolutely nothing to do with her race, when you're white, is really overreaching. You don't get to decide whether that's true or not. You might not realize it, but your entitlement as a white person is on full display when you make that kind of statement with so much conviction..
Assume you don't know everything. If you conducted yourself with a little more class and humility, then you wouldn't look so ridiculous upon learning things like Puffin Muffin is not the gender you assumed.
She doesn't actually want to have some cage match with you. And none of us want to see it. It's a joke to everybody. Because you got carried away here without a just cause and simply look silly at this point, so nobody takes you seriously.
Btw, the challenge already took place for many of us who've seen footage from both of you and it's not even close (you lost by a landslide).
You're totally mixed up and, frankly, it reeks of narcissistic manipulation.
You demand men support and protect women, except you actively attack anyone advocating for the support and protection of this woman and accuse them of misogyny and sexism. You contribute roughly 20% of this thread's content by solely bashing a fellow woman, but when another woman challenges you, it becomes, "Us ladies gotta stick together!" This topic holds so much gravity that you have to whip yourself into a frenzy in order to save women's skateboarding, except when someone calls you on your bullshit, then it's, "Relax, it's just the internet. This is fun!"
I mean, what a fucking mess. You're a kook.

Expand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand Quote.Expand QuoteSleepy, you declaring that attacks on Beatrice have absolutely nothing to do with her race, when you're white, is really overreaching. You don't get to decide whether that's true or not. You might not realize it, but your entitlement as a white person is on full display when you make that kind of statement with so much conviction.
Assume you don't know everything. If you conducted yourself with a little more class and humility, then you wouldn't look so ridiculous upon learning things like Puffin Muffin is not the gender you assumed.
She doesn't actually want to have some cage match with you. And none of us want to see it. It's a joke to everybody. Because you got carried away here without a just cause and simply look silly at this point, so nobody takes you seriously.
Btw, the challenge already took place for many of us who've seen footage from both of you and it's not even close (you lost by a landslide).
You're totally mixed up and, frankly, it reeks of narcissistic manipulation.
You demand men support and protect women, except you actively attack anyone advocating for the support and protection of this woman and accuse them of misogyny and sexism. You contribute roughly 20% of this thread's content by solely bashing a fellow woman, but when another woman challenges you, it becomes, "Us ladies gotta stick together!" This topic holds so much gravity that you have to whip yourself into a frenzy in order to save women's skateboarding, except when someone calls you on your bullshit, then it's, "Relax, it's just the internet. This is fun!"

hmmmmm… from my experience, it’s best to try to be relatively introverted and aside from skating with and filming with your friends, you should hit up people you enjoy watching skate and offer to film them, or, better yet, perhaps as an act of charity/a hold over from white cis guilt from 2020, bring other people along that could benefit from skating with some decent people and going to cool spots, and despite everyone not being on the same skill level, try to include them in videos because you genuinely just enjoy the process of making videos and feel that for what it’s worth, an indie video with some clips from non-cis white people would be really fucking cool, only to get burnt by them in the process.
Oh, and move roughly an hour away where rent is cheaper and don’t give a shit that teams come through town nowadays, much to the chagrin of one person. What skateboarders visit and film in a town has no bearing on me or what I do with my life, my videos, or my family. Just like a music scene is not built around what bands play in a city while on tour, a skate scene is not built around what skaters stay for a week or two and film amazing shit and leave, and it certainly doesn’t factor in to where I plant my roots. It’s rad seeing people come through Detroit and skate but… that doesn’t do anything for my enjoyment of my skating with my friends or where I want to lay my head at night. If it did I’d be in NYC but I would be paying what we pay in rent for a house for a closet.

I think this is the part that actively sucks, as I’ve bumped into a few skaters who, while ‘corny’ and not up to date on anything in the industry, aren’t insufferable and miserable and don’t claim to be something they aren’t. They also appear to actually enjoy skating.
But who am I?
I kooked myself out of my local scene, nobody likes me, and to add insult to injury, nobody comes to my video premieres.

She sounds fake, like shes selling us this persona of a creative genius/pro skateboarder
i kinda feel bad for her at this point
she's clearly struggling with the pressure and expectation that comes with being a pro skater
It sounded pretty shitty of Dill to throw her a pro board in the middle of an ACL recovery. She wasn't really in a position to take the criticism that comes with the job, but does she (or Dill) care about that? It's definitely getting to her, but what options does she really have at this point? Put out a sick part? Quit and pursue something else?

Beatrice gets a lot more hate than she deserves and i’m not upset in the slightest that she’s pro but hearing her openly admit she’s not the kind of skater that “tries” is kinda wild. i can understand why some folks would think someone that’s transparent about having that attitude towards skating that also doesn’t produce much maybe hasn’t earned their place in the culture, idk

Personally, I’m not mad either. It’s just that I don’t get it. What am I missing that has so many people (industry and fans) so thrilled with her that she gets all these opportunities? It can’t be that generational, she’s not that much younger than me, but maybe?

Beatrice gets a lot more hate than she deserves and i’m not upset in the slightest that she’s pro but hearing her openly admit she’s not the kind of skater that “tries” is kinda wild. i can understand why some folks would think someone that’s transparent about having that attitude towards skating that also doesn’t produce much maybe hasn’t earned their place in the culture, idk[close]
Personally, I’m not mad either. It’s just that I don’t get it. What am I missing that has so many people (industry and fans) so thrilled with her that she gets all these opportunities? It can’t be that generational, she’s not that much younger than me, but maybe?

I get it. Gino no tho.
Definitely not Guy.
I feel like she put in the work and chased it down. Makes me think of Jereme more. He did it differently obviously.
Same type of thing they built contacts chased it down and it worked out. They got paid. Both caught crazy shade for it.
She stuck around and is on her 4th shoe.
I don't think it's bad for skating at all.
Not everyone can skate like they go to college in Massachusetts and they live near 50 000 ledges.

Lol at The Bunt getting paid to do an advertorial interview off season. No hate, get paid. Makes me feel bad for her somehow, though.
I too enjoyed the Pops part but I kinda felt like the end.
In my opinion he was basically like the closest possible relative of PJ Ladd and suddenly he wanted to hang out in the alley and do like kickflips over homeless poops.

What were some of the biggest takeaways from your first two colorways, and how did you apply them to this one?
Since I’ve already spent a lot of time working with the Vans design team, we’re super familiar with each other’s processes. I stay up late, wake up early and have five placements of Capricorn, so I’ll be doing things like sending [the design team] a reference photo at 2 AM. That’s easier for me to do now as I’m not shy about working on the shoes anymore. The first time around, I was like “I don’t want to bother these people, so I’m just gonna be grateful for this opportunity.” Now that I’ve already completed the processes and know the team appreciates my work ethic, I can be full terror Beatrice: always making suggestions, giving feedback, contemplating design tweaks. For example, we had originally thought about making the sole marbled before realizing that the rubber we used doesn’t hold that texture well. I feel more comfortable experimenting before the actual samples come back, having variety, being confident in my ability to create.
I think she explains herself better in this hypebeast interview. It's worth a read to get a fuller picture of her. She's clearly more knowledgeable than comes off in other interviews. You can also tell she's referring to her design work and other obligations rather than just work on the board.

Damn, new found respect for people making these colourways for skate shoes... Seriously though, how many people does it take to ‘design’ a colourway of an existing shoe, colour + material, am I being extremely naive here? Insole design?

Expand QuoteHas anyone here actually met Beatrice?[close]
I saw Beatrice at a grocery store in Queens yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask her for photos or anything. She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but she kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in her hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Ma'am, you need to pay for those first.” At first she kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, she stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, she kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
When she got out the door she threw the milky ways on the ground, grabbed her board and hit a 5050 front shuv on the curb out front. She rode away one knee down touching the board with her torso twisted and arms fully stretched out in opposite directions.
Has anyone here actually met Beatrice?

Do you really think that doing ads for Haute Couture has any net negative or positive effect on skateboarding as a whole? Are pro skaters obliged to adhere to the campsite rule, and leave skateboarding better off than they found it?

Do people really hide behind that? I think it's only Tony Hawk who pretends like promoting sports betting during the Super Bowl benefits skateboarding.

Having ethics or values that stop you from working with dirtbags has nothing to do with skateboarding. i had a friend who went to work for a big online fashion retailer after uni, trust me i felt way more butthurt about that than beatrice being used as a prop at louis vuitton expos.

It seems like she had more involvement than just designing a colorway. She said she influenced the toebox to be more rounded and wanted the shoe to be a hybrid of the AVE and Half Cab. It does look like the Zahba Low and Mid are pretty different so I’m inclined to take her word for it. Also we know Vans doesn’t do many signature shoes (even for Reynolds) so it’s not surprising she’d be this involved and still only get a colorway out of it.

Just to play devil's advocate, how do the images she shared suggest that was the entirety of what she contributed to the project? Those posts she made about the process are basically just promotional materials about the shoe geared toward her audience.
Save for a handful of skaters, most design teams are obviously doing the vast majority of the actual work on any given shoe or colorway. Seems like we're holding Beatrice to a different standard, because people don't appreciate her skating - but ultimately the rider is responsible for what's released under their name and in that regard, Beatrice has done quite well.

She says “I have a shoe on Vans” and other outlets that have interviewed her make it sound like it’s a signature model[close][close]QuoteExpand QuoteWhat does it feel like to debut a brand-new silhouette? This is the first time the Zahba Mid has come to market.
It almost feels like a signature model. I had a ton of involvement with the process of getting the new silhouette just right.[close]
https://hypebeast.com/2023/7/beatrice-domond-vans-zahba-mid-sole-mates-interview[close]
Right but how much does that differ from other skaters making colorways? I think of the story Welcome in Leeds put into every aspect of their 440 and they’re definitely not settling for whatever they get.[close]
It seems like she had more involvement than just designing a colorway. She said she influenced the toebox to be more rounded and wanted the shoe to be a hybrid of the AVE and Half Cab. It does look like the Zahba Low and Mid are pretty different so I’m inclined to take her word for it. Also we know Vans doesn’t do many signature shoes (even for Reynolds) so it’s not surprising she’d be this involved and still only get a colorway out of it.[close]
Yeah I know what she says, but I believe it about as much as when Sheckler talked el toro. She wanted a rounded toe because she does a lot of kickflips, which is so clear from what little footage we have of her that is so full of kickflipping[close]
Something tells me Vans corporate has vetted her claims about the genesis of the shoe before strategically pumping all of this content out to us.[close]
They did what?? Why would they even care if she was stretching the truth? If anything, they like that narrative more. It’s not like some designer is whistleblow on the interview and it’s going to create a huge scandal.
Her “process” was a drawing she made of a low with a completely different colorway, an emailed photo of the shoe from Vans, and a picture she took of colors she likes.
I don’t know if you’ve worked with people like her, but I’m sure a big part of the actual designers’ process was presenting ideas in a way that she thought they were her own.[close]
Just to play devil's advocate, how do the images she shared suggest that was the entirety of what she contributed to the project? Those posts she made about the process are basically just promotional materials about the shoe geared toward her audience.
Save for a handful of skaters, most design teams are obviously doing the vast majority of the actual work on any given shoe or colorway. Seems like we're holding Beatrice to a different standard, because people don't appreciate her skating - but ultimately the rider is responsible for what's released under their name and in that regard, Beatrice has done quite well.[close]
As the quotes from the Monster Children interview show, she has a very inflated sense of self. How could you take her seriously after reading “how busy she is”[close]
I don't know, I like her. She's a character. She just seems confident and stoked about the shoes she's putting out. I can't really speak on her skating output before the injury because it is what it is, but I've torn my ACL before and I think it sucks she's not able to go out right now and respond to all the criticism she's taken recently with her skating. Seems like she hears all of it though, so I'm excited to see what she does with the motivation.

Beatrice doesn’t have image or talent. Say what you will about the reputation of her three major sponsors, but FA, Vans and Supreme have much more talented skaters that may have the same non-skating interests (ie tyshawn j modeling) but back up those extra curricular interests with major skill. Beatrice doesn’t present well in any of these companies’ non- skating advertising or promotional materials and she def. doesn’t exude anything but average skill as a skater. It’s weird that any of these companies sponsor her in the first place. She doesn’t seem to really vibe with anyone on these teams either. I don’t really see b roll of her in the Supreme videos like fist bumping Rowan Zorilla or anything- most of her teammates don’t seem to really like her either. They might even resent her. How could Louie L stand to get paid the same as someone who can barely kickflip down three low stairs? For anyone saying she’s nice…her interviews come off as someone who grew up with very ‘new age’ parents (stupid horoscope garbage) and was told they were the greatest child that ever lived and that she could be president etc. It’s just a sad combo of heads of businesses who want a female skater on the team at any cost and that desire causing a mediocre skater to think they are way better than they really are thus feeding their already inflated ego.

I watched a dude use Sole Tech's software to whip up a new colorway, materials and all, for some eS hiking shoes in less than 5 minutes. The Sole Tech dudes we were with were actually impressed with it and said they'd make him a sample and send it to him. Not sure if it always happens that fast but it did that time.

An aluminum folding multi-position ladder, accordion-style with the 6 locking hinges, is quite versatile. Jack of all trades, master of none.
In 2023 the whackest thing in skateboarding aren't non core brands (Asics put out a great video)
It's non core skatepros (Beatrice has never put out a great video)
We also had Nico hiraga aka nicotheduffer with a ABD thrasher cover. Skateboard Companies are really doing cool things right now

Conspiracy thought. What’s the chances that vans is delaying the video because the person they are marketing and giving another color way has nothing of merit in the video that’s suppose to showcase her I assume with it coming with “her shoe” and they are just buying time for here to get some sort of redeeming clip. Before she and vans gets roasted more publicly than just slap?
Also to stay on topic ,they stopped making green bull ladders. I liked the color of it and used it at my work randomly. But yeah Werner is good

Jesus christ, they're just ladders. Don't get the cheapest one, don't get the most expensive one, same with any other tool. Not that hard.

No joke, I work remodeling (mostly paint/wallpapering) and pretty much rock skate shoes for grip on roofing. I just imagine Vans melting something fierce on a hot summer roof.
DC Mantecas are holding up quite nice so far.

I honestly couldn’t tell you with this particular model. I skated well on the DC x Bronze 56k Clocker 2’s, and the Lynx work out well for me. I genuinely love everything DC is doing right now, and the puffy shoe revival.
That said, I’ll champion NB all day, and am fond of Cons too (except the AS-1 which I’m skating now, and sucks… sorry Alexis, love you but..).

Tried the as-1, they aren't a skate shoe. Sold them to my friend and he skated them for like three weeks but had nothing to say about them. For him that usually means they sucked.

They do look dope. I toured a shop team around my city from the east coast and they had the suede unreleased versions and they look puffier and a little better so I might try the non leather version before I hate on them entirely. Love Alexis tho.

Once mud and clay get stuck in there between like the part your foot steps on and the outer cupsole surrounding it they're done. Vans don't do that but are generally uncomfortable and offer zero protection or arch support.

You may be joking but I've worked construction in both. Vans suck, es accel og have been the best. I usually switch shoes about every two months for work when I lace up freshies. But I've had pairs of accel ogs last on jobsites up to 4 months or so before the sole started breaking down and splitting.
Once mud and clay get stuck in there between like the part your foot steps on and the outer cupsole surrounding it they're done. Vans don't do that but are generally uncomfortable and offer zero protection or arch support.[close]
What kind of redneck outfit do you work for where they allow you to wear skate shoes on a construction site instead of steel toe boots? This site just gets worse and worse.

Couldn’t give a fuck less about vans putting posters of this bozo in targets or whatever y’all are yelling at clouds about. Vans is never going to stop doing really dumb shit, outside of the very few cool things they do, that’s their bread and butter buddy.
We can’t talk ladder matches and not bring up the time “a mystery person” kept pulling the belt higher every time Stone Cold went for it. They never ended up doing anything with that storyline wise, they mentioned it the next night on raw and Texas steve was friggen pissed. But then I never saw it mentioned again.
Or when Vince blew up inside a limo but was there unharmed the next night to give a 3 hour salute to Chris Benoit while pretending he hadn’t already found out it was homicide/suicide and not a robbery gone wrong as originally reported.

Kind of weird that Alexis’ name is last and Beatrice’s is first, considering Alexis has done art for a while including board graphics.
Beatrice must move a shitload of product or she just has a really good contract with Vans.
If girls are buying FA boards or Vans because of her, she’s fulfilling her duties.
This leads me to think she was just kind of tokenized for her background. This being 10 years ago, it was very rare to see someone of her background who was a workshop/fa fan girl & totally Arnie Stein'ed over Rieder.it's not really a stunning revelation that her getting hooked up was completely identity based. which is fine. you can't just be any kooked out kid faking switch tricks, doing dylan arms for no reason and expect a spot on FA. i do kinda wonder how inundated they are with sub-sub-subpar sponsor me tapes after kids saw the caliber of her skating.

They’re using her to bring the two disparate communities together because she’s a unifier.
has vans made any original, goodlooking skateshoes in the last of couple of years? Sincere questions, haven't been following them tbh.

There should be Reasonable Doubt that she is capable of a full part.
On a smaller caliber, but kind of massive caliber in our community that I’m focused on is my, like, my first real, like, true video part [a video where skaters show off their skills]. It’d be like Jay-Z’s The Blueprint album, where I put my heart and soul into it, you know? I deserve it for myself, and my fans deserve it as well.
Once I start getting older, I would love to go back to Florida and make a skatepark since there’s not much where I’m from. Maybe do some workshops with some girls. I love doing that. I grew up doing mission work in school. I went to a private Christian school growing up so that’s instilled in me. I’d bring my skateboard along and that was a connection to the kids and then talk about spirituality and revival and things like that.
But, right now my main focus is the video part. Once I have that, I’ll just have the trifecta of what I want.

When I first started skateboarding the group of kids I went out with to street skate the very first time had one girl named Madison. I don’t know their pronouns now but back then they floated. They could make an Ollie look real sick and they could kick flip before the rest of us. I find it hard to believe there aren’t more women/non binary people of color that can make skateboarding look really cool besides Beatrice. She does the opposite of what Madison did. Madison made us want to skate. Beatrice reminds me that skateboarding is losing what made it cool. Style and flavor.

Culture vultureis the best way to describe her which makes me thing that it could be the equivalent of 90's poser.
Damn congrats for being "a real skater"
I've put in way more work into skating and work a regular job and this clown thinks she has the biggest work ethic she could possibly imagine.
She doesn't know what failing, eating shit, being broke since birth feels like. Get her out of the skate business. What a loser. Scam artist. Industry plant. Fake role model.
Cant wait for the "stop discrimination" product roll out where she acts like people are hating on here for being a black female skateboarder and not a incredibly untalented cocky one.

Ok - but I was distinguishing it between shit talked on Slap and shit talked directly to her and her social media accounts.
Like I can make fun of her dumb Betty white drawing on here, but I never would comment on her posts or anything like that. And most of the shit talk I’ve seen on her pages or about her is just a variation of 5050 fs shove it jokes. So it’s never been nasty that I’ve seen, but I’ll concede that maybe it gets removed before I see it

Not trying to make a “holier than thou” move with this but I’d look inward and see if there’s really any difference between the two, given how popular slap is. A second tier of that would be why so many are only willing to post their opinion here but won’t on her socials
SLAP is not that popularEverybody looks at SLAP. It’s like the equivalent of an industry journal. I just did a search for Beatrice Domond and SLAP doesn’t even show up. If the criticism is contained here then only her peers will see it and notice how many of them have joined SLAP to say how RAD she is.

WTF? Over a year and 81 pages, what more can be said on this matter? Shit is just going around in circles at this point. We get it! Either she's undeserving and arrogant or just taking advantage of an opportunity like other lifestyle skate pros have done before her and continue to do. Or, her critics are racist or they're not. Or they are using a double standard or they are not. Whatever the truth is is unknowable at this point. When will all the speculation end!!!!

I love seeing skate spots in media. The obvious being the always Sunny store front in downtown . Your LA based right ? We should try and hit it up. Im pretty sure it’s still night only but no where near the bust factor it used to be . Growing up skating downtown I found if your nice to the security you can get stuff done .
It’s always funny seeing how crazy the downtown triple set security is cause my mom worked in that hotel next door as a kid and we’d literally get the security to bum us cigs as kids trying to skate California plaza . That whole area is a damn play ground for skating .

Oh that’s sick. I haven’t been back there in like 15 years. It’s crazy how much shit has gone down since. When I was a kid the only thing that had been done was the dyrdek commercial. The triple set was a pipe dream to us as kids, the rail is monumentally fucked . I think I pop shuved that little 5 to the side tho . I couldn’t really skate it excessively cause my mom worked there which was a bummer. But I skated a bunch of those spots around it.
the first time I came in with her I saw a business dude and a cholo exchange a large amount of coke in broad daylight cause weekends in dtla were a literal ghost town in the early 2000s and my dumbass was looking for spots .

I don’t think criticism of her is fair. If someone offered me a check for skating I’d take it. The criticism should be pointed to F A and Vans as they are the ones that have set her up for this. Even clarifying that she is in a brand ambassador type role would at least make more sense. I found it interesting that as far as my knowledge the 9 club hasn’t mentioned her at all. No one can say it’s well deserved is the issue.
She would probably just save herself a lot of anxiety if she just put out a part worthy of all the attention and accolades. Until then, it's like anyone at any business getting a massive promotion despite literally everyone else at work being more talented than them.
Like what is anyone even suppose to say when they meet this trifling charlatan?
"Yo Bea your skills are soo amazing OMG that tribute to Barley changed my life ... your 5050 front shove at the one ledge was INSANE ... it is an HONOR to meet you!!!"
No. It's more like:

If this is the case I agree with you. I cant even imagine how terrible of a feeling it must be seeing upwards of 80 pages of people tearing apart nearly every aspect of your personality and career, no matter how kooky or misguided it may be.
That being said there’s no way that this was her first time being made aware of slap, or having someone give her any hate/criticism. Haven’t people been going after her on ig for weeks now?
I cant help but think that some part of the problem is people not giving/her not listening to any of the criticism/hate people have been giving her. Even though the criticism has been generally harsh/mean, that doesn’t make it any less valid. Hopefully some of the hate will humble her and she’ll become a more likeable pro.

Expand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteMaybe she didn't know about this thread (or slap at all) until the moonordie IG messages. Imagine seeing a lot of your footage or interviews being scrutinized, all the criticism she received in 80+pages deserved or not, all at once.

If this is the case I agree with you. I cant even imagine how terrible of a feeling it must be seeing upwards of 80 pages of people tearing apart nearly every aspect of your personality and career, no matter how kooky or misguided it may be.
That being said there’s no way that this was her first time being made aware of slap, or having someone give her any hate/criticism. Haven’t people been going after her on ig for weeks now?
I cant help but think that some part of the problem is people not giving/her not listening to any of the criticism/hate people have been giving her. Even though the criticism has been generally harsh/mean, that doesn’t make it any less valid. Hopefully some of the hate will humble her and she’ll become a more likeable pro.

By no means am I saying stop the hate. 99% of the shit thats been said about everyone youve mentioned, especially Beatrice, is true. What really irks me is that even though she refuses to change and has ignored all criticism from the community, she takes her fucking ball and goes home when people started calling her out for how much of a kook she is
Shes sucked for years now, theres no way shes living a life of blissful ignorance. Shes constantly called out about having a massive and undeserved ego and not being a pro, am, or even flow level skater, yet she hasnt changed or matured one bit and shes stagnated in 5050 fs shuv-pilled state of skateboarding for years, with no effort to get better
if shes ashamed about her output (skateboarding and other media) maybe its time for her to change - she fucking gets paid to do it ffs
I mean at the end of the day she's the one getting vans/ FA money + signature model shit. And we just skateboarding 4chan .You right, but the average boarders like us also have the power to choose where our hard earned money goes to.

It’s the no effort to get better thing that gets me. I’m damn near fifty and still pushing myself to learn legit tricks. If my non flowed ass can learn front crooks, obviously new tricks can be learned at any point, there is obviously no desire to do so, and that does not deserve praise.

There’s a vans tour going on right now for her shoe
and she’s not even on it
I heard that they're holding back on releasing the video online to give her more time to film and add tricks to make her section a full section.
I didn't actually hear this but where is this damn video

at least with the ishod and shane o'neil examples they did change at least 1 element of an existing shoe, like a less puffy tongue or high top version
the same can't be said for this nick michel vans model
you’re prob right her shoes actually did warp my perception about signature shoes - since hers came out I expect if you’re gonna have your name on a shoe it should actually have something to offer besides a new color
Edit: it’s not even an old model in a new color, vans already makes dark brown old skools lol

Having 4 shoes/colours, you'd think she could smile while promoting her products. Buyers gravitate to friendly, cool people. She seems stuck up. Who's inspired to buy these and support her?

you meanies ruined this. she has more shoes than she has tricks, and that's a worthy topic. but she's not taking anybody's spot. The internet fan in me wants it to keep going but she's a person and a skater...
what's a new funner issue i can get with? this one's over, dammit! ...unless that video comes out and there's a We Are All Beatrice solidarity moment of every other skater including a 5050frontshuv in their part or something like that...or she defends Gator or soemthing wild

Beatrice just enrages me. Insane she has a pro model on a company started by Dill and AVE, and now Vans is giving her a colorway. With 0 footage to back it up.
And that Monster Children piece, "50 shuv is like, super mellow. People think it's easy, but it's not! I just have it really good. No, it's not! like they see you do it and they like, ok try a front shuv out of a 50."
It's the first fucking thing you learn how to do after learning how to 50-50! How many fake ass friends have lied to her about it? Straight up, I'm bitter I never "made it" in skating after pouring blood, sweat and tears for over 20 years. Filming multiple parts, scaring the shit out of myself, and having mental breakdowns in drainage ditches and parking lots all around the world. But she comes along, meets the right people at the right time, and she's now a "professional" skateboarder?
Bullshit. Nah nah. Nobody buys that crap. She is 100% not pro. She is an insult to everyone else that took it seriously, and SERIOUSLY put in the work. She's all talk! Just 50 front shuvs and talk!
I'm not sexist nor racist (know those accusations are coming with some shit post like this), I just cannot stand the amount of attention she has gotten for no good reason. Marissa Dal Santo never got a pro nod and she was flip front boarding 10 rails over 10 years ago! Chloe Covell and Rayssa are the female versions of Nyjah and Yuto, straight prodigies who deserve the shine. Vitoria Mendonca is ollieng bump-over-bars, skating shit switch, fakie, nollie off shoot out ledges... and Beatrice is just an anomaly who must have met the right people in the right place at the right time.
And in no way is my opinion on SLAP going to take her "success" away from her. She's still going to be getting deals and getting paid while living out our dream undeservingly. I understand this fully. I'm just as upset at the people and companies giving her these opportunities.
Make her work for this shit. Don't give her a hand out.

It's the first fucking thing you learn how to do after learning how to 50-50! How many fake ass friends have lied to her about it? Straight up, I'm bitter I never "made it" in skating after pouring blood, sweat and tears for over 20 years.

Bullshit. Nah nah. Nobody buys that crap. She is 100% not pro. She is an insult to everyone else that took it seriously, and SERIOUSLY put in the work. She's all talk! Just 50 front shuvs and talk!
I'm not sexist nor racist (know those accusations are coming with some shit post like this), I just cannot stand the amount of attention she has gotten for no good reason. Marissa Dal Santo never got a pro nod and she was flip front boarding 10 rails over 10 years ago! Chloe Covell and Rayssa are the female versions of Nyjah and Yuto, straight prodigies who deserve the shine. Vitoria Mendonca is ollieng bump-over-bars, skating shit switch, fakie, nollie off shoot out ledges... and Beatrice is just an anomaly who must have met the right people in the right place at the right time.
And in no way is my opinion on SLAP going to take her "success" away from her. She's still going to be getting deals and getting paid while living out our dream undeservingly. I understand this fully. I'm just as upset at the people and companies giving her these opportunities.

A young woman, an old man and 17 children walk into a bar. One by one they get hammered, they drink ouzo & rezina and sangria. They also drink whiskey, beer. These are not discriminate people and this does not change when it comes to their intoxicants, chemical, psychological or physical.
The woman wants to know the old mans story. The old man wants to know the woman’s taste in bedroom décor. The 17 children want to take the tables with them when they slip out the back door. So what they want immediately, and what else matters? Is a distraction.
The old man anticipates disappointment in his wants but smiles anyway. The young woman anticipates her life will change if she is only exposed to the wisdom of her elders. She will be disappointed as well, and until she is an old woman this will not make her smile. The 17 children anticipate nothing, their brains have not developed into consciousness, but rely on baser mental faculties. All they know is to act when the time is right, disappointment may as well be a city in Taiwan for all it means to them.
The 17 children get their distraction anyway.
The old man, drifting in his thoughts while the woman pries into the same, has fallen asleep as well as off his stool. The bartender runs to the front of the bar to help the woman help the old man up. The old man is smiling, long since having given up embarrassment. The bartender insists on an ambulance while the woman insists it was her fault. The old man is laughing and insisting he doesn’t need an ambulance, sometimes an old man just needs to rest his eyes, but perhaps the bartender should call the police.
The bartender is confused until he looks up and sees that all of his tables are gone. All that’s left is the feeling of 17 children suddenly vanishing.
The old man is still laughing, so is the woman. Feelings of ecstasy surge through the channels of her mind and she is in love. The old man, who has learned to read the twinkle in a woman’s eye as another may read the headlines of a newspaper, kisses her mouth. He finds she prefers blues and whites for the bed and beige, brown & green carpet and furniture. She says it’s because it makes her feel as though she is sleeping in the ocean, facing the beach.

What’s Guy Mariano have to do with this?
Is the video just not going to be released because they know how much hate it will cop because her footage is so crap? Pretty unfair on the other riders who actually got clips
At this point, it seems like a safe bet that the Keepsake video is never gonna be released online. It's super odd considering how much they were promoting it beforehand and Beatrice commenting that her part is dropping soon, etc.
I really wanted to see Nelly's footage, so that's mainly why I'm disappointed. I wasn't expecting Beatrice to actually come through and prove the "haters" wrong.
Haven’t seen this much backlash on a pro in association with a shoe company since MJ with Adidas.

I'm just curious as to why.Because "the industry needs her" and "there aren't enough black women in skating." And then when you ask people with this sentiment why people like Adrianne Sloboh and Nika Washington are stuck at perma flow even with the current push for diversity, they look at you blankly cause they don't feel the need to actually watch or support black women in skating because they already say they support one skater.

Can’t imagine holding a video back because of the heat one skater might get. Because if that’s the case, shouldn’t this also mean, that vans are likely to drop Beatrice and stop promoting her, because promoting her seems to have the same effect with a certain skate demographic….

I'm not sexist nor racist (know those accusations are coming with some shit post like this), I just cannot stand the amount of attention she has gotten for no good reason. Marissa Dal Santo never got a pro nod and she was flip front boarding 10 rails over 10 years ago! Chloe Covell and Rayssa are the female versions of Nyjah and Yuto, straight prodigies who deserve the shine. Vitoria Mendonca is ollieng bump-over-bars, skating shit switch, fakie, nollie off shoot out ledges... and Beatrice is just an anomaly who must have met the right people in the right place at the right time.
And in no way is my opinion on SLAP going to take her "success" away from her. She's still going to be getting deals and getting paid while living out our dream undeservingly. I understand this fully. I'm just as upset at the people and companies giving her these opportunities.
Make her work for this shit. Don't give her a hand out.[close]
haha dude you are so sour, just be happy for her and stop hating yuorself. its just a fucking skateboard.
nike knows better than to give people a good looking pro shoe. i do like how he says its "completed"As someone who has been studying the Japanese language. Something's just don't translate well, or have no translation for the English language.
Comparing these two is like comparing a ferrari and a 2 day old cup of yogurt.
don’t hate yourself. Hate the “game” that is sucking the right peoples dick to have a pro board, whatever that means these days. I’m sure you put in more work than she has.

Just checking in to see if y’all are going to give Yuto the same hate for saying he has his own shoe on nike?
It’s clearly just a dunk colorway… either way congrats to Yuto and he should obviously have his own shoe not just a colorway.

Honestly, yes. That’s the Bigspin Front Board of women’s skateboarding. Men, no more Bigspin Front Boards. Women, no more 50-50 Front Shuvs. There’s just been too many.
Actually, Fabi did one that was really sick, on an out ledge though. I liked filming that one.
Respect. Let’s just say we are no longer accepting 50-50 Front Shuvs.

First time I ever went to LA in 2002, the first spot my friend took me to was Villa Parke ledges in Pasadena, it was like 10:30/11:00 in the morning and SAD was over by the swing set doing push ups with no shirt on. He did not have a board.
I thought maybe I had dreamed this or made it up but I just texted my friend to confirm.

Vincent Alvarez also came on the scene blowing everybody’s minds the year DC threw a King of LA contest, while working in a McDonald’s meatpacking plant, with no cell phone so TM’s were blowing up his friends phone on his behalf, and he didn’t get back to Sam Smyth for an entire year.. He wasn’t thirstin for a spotlight, he works hard for what he has and still loves to skateboard despite a semi-debilitating injury.
You don’t have to like his footage to know he is nothing like Beatrice.

Honestly, yes. That’s the Bigspin Front Board of women’s skateboarding. Men, no more Bigspin Front Boards. Women, no more 50-50 Front Shuvs. There’s just been too many.
Actually, Fabi did one that was really sick, on an out ledge though. I liked filming that one.
Respect. Let’s just say we are no longer accepting 50-50 Front Shuvs.
That’s pretty much the only thing I can think of right now. I guess slow tricks, too. I skate slow, so I can’t really talk shit, but you know.[close]

If you think about it, Beatrice is like the Wallace Shawn of skateboarding as long as you do not have any follow up questions.
The interview was in an issue of The Skateboard Mag around ‘08-‘10, where he talked about working at a Tyson (?) meatpacking plant and how he got hooked up by Crail.Expand QuoteVincent Alvarez also came on the scene blowing everybody’s minds the year DC threw a King of LA contest, while working in a McDonald’s meatpacking plant, with no cell phone so TM’s were blowing up his friends phone on his behalf, and he didn’t get back to Sam Smyth for an entire year.. He wasn’t thirstin for a spotlight, he works hard for what he has and still loves to skateboard despite a semi-debilitating injury.
You don’t have to like his footage to know he is nothing like Beatrice.

Beatrice has to be a psy-op, right? Nobody is that diluted about their own impact on skating and how fortunate they are just to be in the position she's in right now. Like, you got a pro shoe on Vans (which is similar to having a colorway on most other shoe brands tbh) and are pro for a popular brand with next to nothing to show for it. Where does she get the ego to be so out and in public?it’s the passion bro. Backside noseblunts coming soon 🙏🙏🙏

Well, if you'd kept watching, you'd have seen the ledge trick materialize. It was a 5-0. Followed by a varial flip on flat. Not top-tier shit. On it's face, I understand it's infuriating that in a world now full of fantastic female skaters, a seemingly mediocre one has a Vans shoe, etc. I'm happy we've at least moved on from the "anything a woman can do a man can do better" argument. But skateboarding is a marketing campaign and not a meritocracy. Shake your fist at the sky for all time that Morgan Smith didnt get a fair go. Sometimes the cream rises to the top, but more often than not it skates for Blind and then retires in search of eye care benefits. With that in mind, can't we be a little excited that a black female is being backed by big brands? Sure, it has more to do with marketability than skate ability, but so does every other corner of the industry. There's more to celebrate here than there is to complain about.

She's gone too far this time. Using the greatest Ween song with that forced steez >:(
She would benefit from a flatter board and a wider stance.
I like to practice my kickflips with my foot already in the nose pocket. Which she is avoiding. Probably because kicking through that nose on ventures takes a tone of effort when you choke up on the board.
Wider stance with more foot on the board makes it impossible not to flick through the nose.
It also makes the board pop and flip super slow so you can really understand the mechanics of a proper boned ass kickflip and start applying it to flat gaps etc.
I only choke up on the board if I gotta get into a manual or a 5oh to guaranteed slip out and a lightly smoked hand.

Ode to PearlI hate people like you, jimothy
In the Great After, which is also the Great Before, Pearlessence sat in waiting outside of the doors of the Decider. She was weary. Her last escapade in the mortal realm was alongside the Otoe people of the Nemaha River. They had called her Kohana which meant swift. She had no owners, she belonged to the tribe itself, but it was Chumani who had always been kindest to Pearlessence.
Chumani had lived seven winters. She had always spent more time with the animals than with the children her age. When Chumani couldn’t find a bison or a turkey to follow, she’d dig up worms and watch them bury themselves back into the earth. Often, at her side, sat Kohana. Kohana sat at Chumani’s side when the white man’s bugle call announced their imminent attack.
Through the rows of their earth covered houses, the horses galloped as rifle shots echoed through the air. A young man, on his first massacre, grinned as he bore down on Chumani. Kohana leapt from a rooftop. A searing pain erupted across that young man’s face as Kohana tore into it. The horse veered, as Chumani found her feet and ran, then toppled, crushing the young man and Kohana underneath it. Kohana saw Chumani fleeing into the distance as she took her last breath.
So Pearlessence sat, enjoying the stillness of the purgatorial waiting room. There were other dogs here, but this was not a place of frolic. These dogs did not bark. Many lay on the mats lined along the floor. Others drank slowly from the springs against the walls, or ate from the long tables of sumptuous fare. Pearlessence did not feel hunger or thirst. Her name was called and Pearlessence rose, stretched, and entered the den of The Decider.
The Decider rose as Pearlessence entered, and motioned to the pillow next to her own. “Please,” she said, “sit.”
So Pearlessence sat.
“Good girl,” said The Decider, “Who’s a good girl?”
Pearlessence responded with the customary, “I’m a good girl,” before continuing. “Decider, what is my next mission?”
“Well, let’s see what we’ve done so far, shall we? You recall your first mission, I’m sure.”
A ball of light flickered to life above the Decider’s head. They both turned to look at it. An image arose; Pearlessence sleeping at the entrance to a cave. A baby is crying in the background. A low growl rumbles, a cat of incredible stature leaps into the scene and Pearlessence, in the form of a massive wolf, leaps towards it without hesitation.
“Your next mission, in the war between the Zhou and Shang at Muye.”
The scene arose of a massive battle, Tens of thousands of Zhou soliders racing towards the Shang. Pearlessence, looking very much like a dingo, raced alongside King Wu himself. A Shang soldier appears as if out of nowhere and sails a spear towards the king. Pearlessence leapt in the air, taking the spear, and saving the king’s life.
“After that battle, the Shang Dynasty ended and the Zhou began. So many were saved from starvation, peace settled across the land, and Confuscianism and Taoism, pillars of thousands of years of subsequent philosophy arose. Let’s go on.”
Her missions flickered across the ball.
Pearlessence protecting her own babies against a family of wolves.
Pearlessence in Nepal, serving as the earthly counterpart of Yama, guardian to the doors of heaven, bringing comfort and solace to those who had lost their loved ones.
Pearlessence rescuing pilots who had been shot down over the ocean in WWI.
Scene after scene, life after life. In each, Pearlessence fought for good, protected against evil, and dedicated herself to the people around her. Not every life ended in bloodshed, but many did. Those that didn’t were not easy lives either. Each was a life of intent, of bravery, of sacrifice. Each was a life that benefitted the world around her. The ball faded away.
“You have accomplished much, young Pearl,” said The Decider.
“It has been an honor,” she replied.
“I have decided that your next life will serve as a reward.”
Pearlessence cocked her head, “I don’t understand. Is this, a retirement? I still have much to give.”
“No, it is not retirement. I meant what I said. You will still serve.”
“But what service is there in being a simple pet?”
The Decider’s eyes widened, “You still have much to learn, Pearlessence. You have always lived lives that resulted in the benefit of others to the detriment of your own health. You have always been expected to be the warrior, the defender, the sacrificial lamb. It will always be in your nature to benefit those around you, but there is another way. Instead of simply ensuring that the lives of others go on by dying, you can bring joy to those lives by living.”
Pearlessence paused. “This is a very different mission. Who will I be serving?”
The ball of light appeared again above the Deciders massive head. In it were two people, clearly in love. They teased each other, laughing and feigning outrage. It was a picture of happiness. The ball of light faded away.
“They already seem so happy,” noted Pearlessence, “what can be gained by my presence in their life?”
The Decider smiled. “As I said, this is in part a reward, that they are often so happy is a gift for you. However, your service will not be without purpose.
“Humans often work long hours each day. They require the anticipation of happiness, comfort, and familiarity to get through their days. You will give them this. While they toil, they will think of you and be happy.
“In those days and hours they do not work, it will be you they structure their days around. These two find joy in walks through woods and mountains, in trips in their car, in camping beneath the stars, you will augment this joy. You will elevate. And not only for them, but their friends and families as well.”
Pearlessence smiled herself, “I don’t understand all of it, but I believe I understand the assignment. I thank you, oh great one.”
“It is I who should thank you Pearlessence. Do you have any other questions before you begin?”
Pearlessence thought, and finally she asked, “What of the next assignment?”
“Worry not regarding the future. It is the nature of this assignment that all that matters is the present. When they are away, you will revel in your anticipation of their return. When they are with you, bliss will be all encompassing. Your next mission, whatever its nature, will come, for now you are obligated to a life a happiness. Your own and the two humans you will serve. Are you ready, Pearlessence?”
The smile returned to her face. “I am.”
The ball of light appeared again. It grew in size until it had swallowed Pearlessence into itself. Pearlessence’s mind went blank. When she awoke once more, she heard a soft voice. Cooing, it said, “Such an adorable little girl. Let’s take her home, can we?”

Well said.
Vans canada just replied to me a post about a keepsake party they had. "Patience is a virtue" so maaybe it will come out somedayClassic gaslighting. Yeah we are definitely the ones being impatient. Definitely weren't curious cause they had multiple premiere parties and cause their colorway pro type in all caps PART NEXT WEEK under multiple haters' comments three months ago. The fumble on this video release is some amateur shit. Don't hype a video until everything is cleared, online and in person. Full size run of her shoe is still sitting at the shop btw. They rushed the premieres just to fail at selling the shoe.
The price point is $120 which is higher than almost all other shoes and it says ‘Beatrice’ in gold writing across the back. Seems like a hard sale to me.I liked the shoe and could swallow giving her money for no parts in a decade but the live laugh love font on the heel broke it for me.
Taking a page out of Jeremy Wray’s book.
He said he was going to get multiple covers like 2 years back. Much like Beatrice saying, first of many parts…

To have value for a company the person has to contribute something. Beatrice clearly does that for Vans.
Does her skating hold up to traditional "pro level"? Nope. Does it matter? Nope. She is a model for the company, not someone who's gonna hardflip the 10stair. They have other dumbasses for that stuff. They are probably on half the pay and get kicked off when their knees give out. Why is it so? Because they are just some crusty clowns that are 100% interchangable to the general public.
Beatrice won. Her shoe is looking quite good and will sell a bunch. In the meantime your favorite "skater's skater" is getting smoked at some rail for an IG clip that Nyjah could do in his sleep anyway.
My idiot skateboarder opinion: Her skating is absolute trash. Jazz hands and "stylish" rideouts after 5050 front shuvs at 2mph is the worst. Her whole schtick is insufferable, but it is what it is.

A Metaphysical Grounding Account of Knowledge.this reddit tier bullshit has to go, worse than beatrice
John sees his coworker Nogot driving a Ford. By this evidence he forms a belief of the proposition p, ‘someone in the office owns a Ford.’ It so happens that Nogot is renting the car, but a different person in the office, Smith, does own a Ford. So it seems as though p is true and John has a justified belief in p, ergo it should be the case that John knows p. But it seems obvious that he does not.
In the following I will offer an account of knowledge that coincides with our intuitions as to its nature, explains the seeming contradiction of Gettier cases, and allows knowledge despite the skeptical paradox. I will first lay out my theory, then illustrate how it resolves the cases associated with Gettier and skepticism, and finally I will rebuke some potential objections.
Theory
My claim as to when S is sufficiently justified in her belief of p as to know p is as follows.
Grounding Theory of Justification (GT)
S knows p iff S believes p in virtue of being aware of some evidence whose existence is grounded in p’s truth.
When I say that the evidences existence is grounded in p’s truth I mean that the evidence only exists because p is true.
GETTIER
The Nogot case is resolved via GT because John witnessed Nogot driving a Ford he did not own, and therefore could have witnessed Nogot driving that Ford regardless of whether anyone in the office owned a Ford or not. The evidence wasn’t grounded in the proposition that someone in the office owns a ford. That someone does happen to own a Ford is just an irrelevant coincidence.
Consider the alternate scenario where John sees Smith pull up in his Ford and forms the belief that someone in the office owns a Ford. John did witness Smith driving his own Ford, which is evidence grounded in p’s truth. So, in this example, since John’s evidence for believing p, where p is the belief that someone in the office owns a Ford, is grounded in it being true that someone in the office owns a Ford, John knows p.
Consider another example. You are driving through the countryside and you see a barn. You form the belief, ‘there is a barn in that field.’ However barn façades have been put up all over the countryside. So even though you are looking at a real barn, it seems as though you have formed a true belief by luck, as it may have been the case that you saw a façade instead and formed the same belief.
But your evidence for the proposition p ‘there is a barn in that field,’ is that you are looking at a barn in that field. Had it not been a barn, but a façade, then obviously your belief would have been false, but that is irrelevant. Since you base your belief in p on the evidence of having seen an actual barn, and not a façade, you are sufficiently justified in your belief that there is a barn in that field for you to have knowledge that p. Were it the case that you formed the belief instead by looking at a barn façade than you would not have knowledge that p, regardless of whether p was true or not, because even if there were a barn elsewhere in the field it would be irrelevant. But because you form your belief on your perception of an actual barn, you know there is a barn in that field regardless of the irrelevant coincidence of nearby barn facades.
If that does not seem immediately intuitive consider the possibility you are instantaneously transported to a position in front of an actual barn, and form the belief ‘there is a barn in that field,’ and then are instantaneously transported back to your armchair. It does not seem like your knowledge of the proposition ‘there is a barn in that field’ should be in any way threatened by the existence of fake barns near-by.
Similar remarks hold for the mule/zebra case, the sheep case, the roommate case, and so on.
SKEPTICISM
Claims:
GT: S knows p iff S believes p in virtue of being aware of some evidence whose existence is grounded in p’s truth.
It is not the case that for S to know p S must know she knows p.
So, it is not necessary for S to know that she knows p to know p. Under GT this cashes out as the fact that S does not need to know the evidence she uses in justifying her belief in some proposition is indeed grounded in that proposition’s truth in order to know that proposition. It simply must be the case that it is.
The skeptic claims we have no knowledge because in order to have knowledge of any p, one must be certain that not-p is false. Since we cannot be certain not-p in regards to our sensorial experiences such as having hands, we can have no knowledge of any sensory perceptions.
This is false. It is enough for S to know p iff S comes to believe p based on evidence grounded in p’s truth. That is, given that S has evidence for p and that the evidence she has is metaphysically dependent on p being true, thereby entailing that p is indeed true, S knows p.
So, if the evidence S uses to form the belief p, where p is that she hands, is seeing her hands, then S knows p. If instead the evidence for is a simulation of hands or a deception causing her to see hands that arent’t there, S doesn’t know p/
The only way in which the skeptic can threaten knowledge in this manner is if they are successful in persuading S in coming to disbelieve p. If S is not so persuaded, and if her evidence is indeed grounded in p’s truth (that, e.g., is it isn’t the case that her evidence is the result of false sensorial input) then S is successful in knowing p. That is just to say that if the proposition S believes is true, and the evidence she uses is grounded in that truth, then S knows p.
OBJECTIONS
A) It might be argued that GT entails one cannot gain knowledge via testimony. This is not the case. Consider the following.
Sophia looks through a telescope and finds a heretofore unseen moon revolving around Venus. She makes careful observations and calculations and so on until she is confident enough in her observation to tell Cryshawnda that she knows there is a moon revolving around Venus. Furthermore had there not been a moon revolving around Venus the evidence Sophia bases her belief on could not have existed.
Cryshawnda believes Sophia, and it is true that this moon exists, and that if it did not exist then the evidence Sophia uses in justifying her claim of knowledge to Cryshawnda would not exist. Then the evidence that Cryshawnda uses to justify her belief, Sophia’s claim of this moon’s existence (that is grounded in evidence that is grounded in the moon’s existence), would not have existed unless the moon existed. Witness: Had Sophia been mistaken, and had some evidence that would have existed regardless of whether or not a moon existed, then she would not have knowledge of that moon’s existence. Furthermore had she imparted that claim onto Cryshawnda, she would not be imparting knowledge. It is just because Sophia is sufficiently justified in her claim, just because her evidence is grounded in the truth of the relevant proposition, that Cryshawnda comes to have knowledge of that claim.
B) Suppose a skeptical paradox of the following manner. The world is a computer program but is dependent on the actions of real world counterparts that influence their avatars in our world. So if you see a bird fly in this world, the simulation, it is just because a bird flies in the real world. Therefore when you witness a bird flying, it is true that a bird is flying, it seems you are justified in believing it, and furthermore that the bird flies is grounded in the fact a bird flies. But it still doesn’t seem like you know a bird flies.
In this example the bird simulation is in fact dependent on an actual bird flying, but the connection doesn’t seem necessary. Consider an analogous example. A barn façade in the field uses as its support an actual barn, via 2x4s connected from the actual barn to the back of the façade. Therefore if that actual barn were not there then the barn façade could not stand. That this is the case does not determine that the barn façade could not have stood without the actual barn, surely a different means of support could have been found. So our intuition that should you have seen the barn façade and came to believe “there’s a barn in that field,” you would fail to have knowledge of that proposition regardless of the existence of an actual barn is correct under GT. Similarly for the bird, that some simulation of a bird is in fact dependent on an actual bird does not entail that it is metaphysically necessary that the simulation is dependent on a real bird flying, for certainly the simulation could be recreated so as not to necessitate a real bird. So, since it is the case you could have seen a simulation of a bird flying without an actual bird flying, this does not pose a problem for GT.
C) This account makes it almost impossible for anyone to be sure that he or she has knowledge. In order to say “I know p” one must be able to say “I know my evidence for believing p is such that p must be the case for that evidence to exist.” But the skeptical paradox defeats that claim in nearly every case, and many more mundane examples defeat that claim in most other circumstances.
I believe this is the most serious problem for GT. If I say, “I know my name is Ben.” Than under this theory that can be taken to mean that I know that I have evidence for believing as such that could never be defeated. Furthermore I have evidence for that claim that could never be defeated, an so forth. So, the issue is twofold, one is that the criteria for having knowledge is too high in the first place and that it leads to an infinite regress of evidential support, a problem raised for any evidential account of knowledge or justification.
The first fold is really not an issue with GT at all. The problem of propriety regarding the assertion of knowledge is not the problem of defining knowledge. My claim is that an agent has knowledge when she believes a proposition as a result of becoming aware of evidence that could not have existed unless the proposition were true. So, if she makes a claim of knowledge such as “I have hands,” and does so because she sees her hands and in fact her hands exist and are hers, she is correct in her assertion. If she makes the same assertion because she sees hands at the end of arms but in fact both are simulations or some other such thing, she is incorrect in her assertion. It might be the case that she was justified in making the claim both times, neither time, or in just the first case. That is a matter of debate regarding the propriety of assertion, not regarding the nature of knowledge.
The infinite regress is a claim against GT itself, but not one with much weight. The idea that there must be higher order knowledge to have knowledge at all, that you must know you know to know, has been largely abandoned. I personally believe that whatever the criteria for possessing knowledge may be, I’m advocating GT but even if I am wrong, the possession of higher order knowledge will not be a part of it, just because of issues regarding infinite regress. GT says simply that when an agent believes a proposition due to an awareness of some evidence which could not have existed without that proposition being true than she has sufficient justification to know that proposition. It suffices that she believes her evidence is appropriately grounded in the truth of the proposition, that it is so grounded, and, consequently, the proposition is true.
CONCLUSION
The Grounding Theory of Knowledge provides an account that agrees with common intuition regarding what it is to have knowledge, i.e., when an agent believes a proposition because she is aware of some evidence that exists only because the proposition is true

If Fabiana quit for a better check or anything I back it. But if she got booted while a fucking hack stays on that’s fucked.

I ain’t got blunts now but her blunt looked like the ones I’d did as a kid on the bottom of marble stairs. Where your board is rubbing on the higher stair so it balances and locks you in. I would just pretend to boardslide a way higher stair and I’d land on a lower one in blunt and it would slide. I’m not saying she’s doing this but it kinda looks like a cheater blunt. Which I know to well about.

I get what you’re trying to say because I’ve been here for a while. In the 106 pages of this Beatrice thread I might have 4 posts…including this one…and none of them are even about her.
I don’t think Beatrice is all that talented, or even cares that much about skating. I don’t even think her skin is clear enough to be modeling as much as she does, but I also don’t understand why you guys care so much. We accepted that pro status was a farce with Flameboy and Wet Willy 23 years ago. Shane Heyl had a pro board for a short while and he can only do two tricks (albeit a lot cleaner than anything Beatrice can do). Safe assumption is that Rob Dyrdek’s bulldog sold more Alien boards than Tyler Bledsoe. The concept of a “pro” status has been vague long before she was given a board.
Even without Beatrice FA still has the widest range of ability in skate history from early Sean Pablo to Terp, to Louie Lopez today. Its obvious that Dill finds value in showcasing a wide range of skill levels.
I legit don’t understand the attention you guys give her so I reserve the right to exclude myself from the slap crowd lol.

If you do try them on stairs and say it’s a 3 stair wax the second and bottom stair. The mentally think of board sliding the second stair but like one where you don’t fully commit to. Think like you’re trying to rocket Ollie into a boardslide on the second stair so you’ll back truck will land in blunt on the bottom. Stair. Hope it helps it’s the only way I could mentally trick my self into doing them.
Heres a lil freestyle poem I did just now while reading this thread on the hopper.
I think it fits.
I did a bunch of lil cereal looking floaty poops. Unusual lil dudes I wonder what's the scoop?
what does this mean the lil black jelly beans and I wonder as they refuse to go under and what's the difference between them and the heavy sinkers the big fat stinkers and the poops that have no home?
Should I hit the doctor up on the phone?
Study the poops the Dr says but I hate to look cuz I think that's for gays.
Am I dying who fucking cares
I'm not crying in my eyes there must be hairs.
Open the window to get some air.
Now I kneel and have a stare
What's up with these lil fuckers I say
Also I wear vans because I want Billy English to think about what I got in my pants.

Easy. Not everything is about race. Sometimes people can be disliked for their attitude etc. which is what most of Beatrice’s dislike comes from. She comes off as a self entitled brat who skills don’t warrant her cunt attitude. I’m sure there’s some racism. I mean you keep bringing it up. But I think the majority of hate she gets is because of her personality and skill. I’m sure the majority of people that dislike her also champion other black skaters. The race thing is a cop out argument in this case. If people was saying these things be about ishod or Samaria I’d say they are probably racist because their attitude and skill are great to say the least.

Just skimmed through her insta. She is in the same skill range as b. I would assume there would be less rage because i dont think theres tons of interviews where moss talks about how much she deserves it. Moss seems to have a much better attitude. B's attitude is what turns most people away.
If b was more like 'im glad to be here and this is a great opportunity' instead of 'i deserve this and anyone who criticizes me is racist', there wouldnt be nearly as much of an issue.

Agree. B doesn't seem to promote the fun in skateboarding (to me). Quite abrasive stuff mixed in with the heinous styled out arms and whatnot.
B lost the crowd (of idiots on the internet at least) when she started fighting in the comments. A public person rarely is victorous against an army of ignorants :)

I definitely know b is way more skilled than skatemoss.
I definitely know skatemoss ain't jumping on that red flat bar and with out a shuv out. Maybe in some years but I doubt she's more than back board on even the park rail.
The B kickflips are looking way way better lately too. I'm thinking she can make the switch flip look basically the same np if she wanted.
I believe that B skates well enough to do anything she wants with her board.
When I look at her skatebloarding it's obvious to me she's spent a lot of time just skating around doing whatever in parking lots and the streets.
I feel like she is doing pretty good from the little clips we've gotten here and there. The shoe is doing good
I feel like people are judging her by the tricks not about how she looks on the board.
Skatebloarding is about how you present it. I'm about lines and original spots. Bump to bar. Bank to bench. Fakie ledge stuff. Flat bars are my favorite tho.
How you look going down the street to the spot is kinda my shit too. Fakie flipper off the Chinese Ollie crack. Hit the wallie switch into the streets full speed like you own metallica in skatebloarding forever and ever and not even Schroeder or Nyjah can dethrone you. I'm pretty sure Gibson skated to metallica in contest too. Can't touch it.
I'm so glad I never got to be pro. People would just hate me for not flipping my bloard enough and doing to many wall rides and slappys.
Ass flea you don't deserve a bloard maaaaan! You just lucky to be here bitch. Love parks that way you bum!!!! You never gonna make it kid. Not if I got something to say about it you panko
As long as people use dick as a derogatory term pussy, cunt, etc are fair game too.These last couple of pages, especially this comment, is giving Men’s rights energy lol. Gross.

truth, to be honest after decades of seeing tech skating, Im kinda over it, appreciate the skills involved and all but I prefer seeing a PSpliff type of hill bomb than a yuto nollie flip spin into and out of handrails nowadays.

Just skimmed through her insta. She is in the same skill range as b. I would assume there would be less rage because i dont think theres tons of interviews where moss talks about how much she deserves it. Moss seems to have a much better attitude. B's attitude is what turns most people away.
If b was more like 'im glad to be here and this is a great opportunity' instead of 'i deserve this and anyone who criticizes me is racist', there wouldnt be nearly as much of an issue.[close]

Good god, you guys! Just accept that we, us, an archaic internet message board comprised of skate nerds perpetually mulling over the meaning of skate footage as it relates to all other past, present and future skate footage is not Beatrice's target audience. Frankly, I don't know who her audience is, maybe young female skaters, maybe young, black female skaters, maybe young, black, east coast female skaters? In any case, it exists and it's not us. There are skaters hyped on this, even if you can't understand it. Pulling out your trusty street skating measuring stick is useless and embarrassing. It's not some great travesty that there's interest in her skating. Maybe the most interesting thing about it is how much anger it stirs in you. Let her do her thing for the people who are into it, and she can hopefully find herself a black woman making some money in the skate industry. A rare, if not totally unprecedented, occurrence. The other 95% of the industry abides by the traditional standards you so crave. You've pretty much got the whole place to yourself, go nuts! Can't we just leave this woman alone?

Not everyone who has a negative opinion about something in skateboarding is punching the air over it and I'm not sure why that's hard to understand.
I saw the extended/ uncut version that premiered at the FA store - AMA
I just don’t understand why whatever caused the delay in release was worth all the hassle for what amounted to a “good time, homies video.”
I enjoyed it well enough, but it felt pretty “meh,” overall.
The marketing of Beat, and the vibe of this entire video feel like they’re both intended to make skating appear fun & more importantly, ACCESSIBLE to people who don’t already skate.
Even if it doesn’t generate increased sales of the “pro” line, it still serves to make skating more relatable to the masses, writ large, and by that I mean the general shoe buying public.
Why by it a shoe from a “skate” brand even if you don’t skate?
THERE’s your answer: fun lifestyle & lots of high fives & hugs.
It’s all awaiting you in your next pair of Vans.
Nobody know marketing strategy around here?!?

That mofo ain't a racist. He's scared of women not black people. That's why he's not alloweded to talk at Mano when the girls is skatebloarding.
All he can do once a woman hits the skate lite is say good God! And he starts ducking incoming invisible whatever hallucinations he sees flying at his head during dingle berries.
Y'all see that one! She's trying to kill me!
I heard that Fabrina Delfino's last trick. The dingle berry on the big bank was her trying to kill O'Connor through psychic warfare.
It's all antifas and Obamas fault.

Sarcasm doesn’t translate to text very well. Sarcasm is usually translated from tone or facial expressions. Surprised they didn’t teach you that in school since you’re so smart school boy.

Good god, you guys! Just accept that we, us, an archaic internet message board comprised of skate nerds perpetually mulling over the meaning of skate footage as it relates to all other past, present and future skate footage is not Beatrice's target audience. Frankly, I don't know who her audience is, maybe young female skaters, maybe young, black female skaters, maybe young, black, east coast female skaters? In any case, it exists and it's not us. There are skaters hyped on this, even if you can't understand it. Pulling out your trusty street skating measuring stick is useless and embarrassing. It's not some great travesty that there's interest in her skating. Maybe the most interesting thing about it is how much anger it stirs in you. Let her do her thing for the people who are into it, and she can hopefully find herself a black woman making some money in the skate industry. A rare, if not totally unprecedented, occurrence. The other 95% of the industry abides by the traditional standards you so crave. You've pretty much got the whole place to yourself, go nuts! Can't we just leave this woman alone?

This is well put and I was with you (as in I accept not being the target audience, and I accept being out of touch, considering my age) until that bit about "black woman making money in the skate industry". This American obsession with identity is profoundly unhealthy IMO and it's being exported everywhere through english-speaking media, which honestly worries me. To put it succintly, it amounts to judging people for who they are, not what they do. Does everyone need to be "represented"? Do we now need a native american woman pro skater too? should we frown upon any white male turning pro, because there are too many of them already?
I guess my being French may have something to do with me having a hard time to understand this way of thinking. For context, it's plain illegal in France to ask someone to specify their ethnicity (in writing I mean). I was shocked when I spent a semester in an American university and I had to check a "race box" on the application papers. Which was even more confusing to me, as at the time I did not know my ethnic background, as an adopted kid. But that's another story.

I agree and what’s weirder is that when black athletes have broken sports barriers, it’s because I they have undeniable skill. Robinson, woods, Williams sisters. Beatrice is not even bang average. There are a few of black girls right now like Samaria, who is beloved, that could use that shine. I just don’t see how Emperors New Clothes-ing Beatrice gets more black women into skating bc the narrative that creates is “we value your skin color over your talent or ability”.
Beatrice obviously likes skateboarding as a culture and I don’t doubt she watches vids and fans out like the rest of us do. I’m just not convinced she likes skating as a career. She’d be better to pivot to a personality side of the industry like a podcast or contest hype person like Gary Rogers does for Thrasher tours and demos where she can share her love that way instead of pretending she’s an actual deserving skateboarder. I think she’d find that reciprocal love there
“I’m the first of hopefully many Black women who will be pro skateboarders,” she says.

It should read, "Suck mynon-existingnonexistent dick, bitch." "Non-existing" is, well, a nonexistent phrase and punctuation matters.
Unless there is such a thing as a "dick bitch" and I am unaware.

I believe she does not know about skateboarding. In the bunt interview, someone asked her what her favorite trick was, and she replied with back Smith grind. From what I’ve seen, I am more than 100% sure she cannot do that trick.
To be fair, it’s not like I can do it either, but I don’t tell people that I can do certain tricks when I can’t.

If she’s really posing fake back smith’s I almost like her more than before ;D The speeding up the footage stuff I can buy… those clips looked a little bit throttled for sure… but that’d be hilarious if she was pulling the wool to that degree. Would certainly lend some credence to her supposed beef with Shari White. If Beatrice is really just a model for Vans mall/web stores, and her Zahba mid colorway actually hasn’t done well, and she doesn’t fit/hang with the skate team - is she done soon? I’d love to get some clarity on all the speculation because it’s definitely an interesting dynamic. She’s sort of on an island on the team right now, hard to deny that, as much as I’ve been rooting for her to succeed.

You know how the skate industry is. Flame emojis, heart emojis and thumbs up emojis. God forbid you as a pro skater critique another skater or company. You’ll be shunned to the bottomless pit for the rest of eternity. I think the lack of brand loyalty and “teams” doesn’t help either.

Is the spread ass cheeks her WAP? Like, not literally, but her reclaiming the exploitations of the sexuality of the female body? Is it her ass? Or a model's ass? Do you think she knows the model if so? Do you think she knows the guy whose hands are grabbing said ass? Is it all just a rouse to get horny skateboarders even hornier?

You have to learn to be ok with a model / influencer getting a pro model. I think the main problem is that she talks like she's a sick skater, but if she just owned up to the fact she's a shoddy skater and is getting all these opportunities due to her personality / looks / vibe, then everyone would be cool with it.

I personally am more baffled that people dig her looks/personality/vibe than that she can’t skate. What you said about her acting like/insisting she’s some sick soul skater is part of the personality that I can’t believe is endearing to some

I'd do anything just about to hold Let me take you on an escapade era Janet.
She was like Madonna x10 back then. Madonna with gold teef and short slick hairs was top Madonna tho.
Janet > only two of those Madonna.
Hairy Arm Pits Madonna is closer to one to one.
I wanna twist those lil dirty blonde hairs with my tongue.
JLo as Salinas is #1 tho. I wonder if JLo shaves the armpits?
There's no white girl on earf that can touch that.
Maybe Gwen Stefani in Underneath it all. The last shots in the video where she's blonde on blonde on blonde in a white room floating around.
Bams wife's alright too. I'd definitely hang with her. She doesn't look so much like a plain Jane ass white girl.
Be honest I'd rather be balls deep in Bam. I feel like it's more dangerous. Lol.
If I gagged him he'd be a little closer to my type.

I'd do anything just about to hold Let me take you on an escapade era Janet.
She was like Madonna x10 back then. Madonna with gold teef and short slick hairs was top Madonna tho.
Janet > only two of those Madonna.
Hairy Arm Pits Madonna is closer to one to one.
I wanna twist those lil dirty blonde hairs with my tongue.
JLo as Salinas is #1 tho. I wonder if JLo shaves the armpits?
There's no white girl on earf that can touch that.
Maybe Gwen Stefani in Underneath it all. The last shots in the video where she's blonde on blonde on blonde in a white room floating around.
Bams wife's alright too. I'd definitely hang with her. She doesn't look so much like a plain Jane ass white girl.
Be honest I'd rather be balls deep in Bam. I feel like it's more dangerous. Lol.
If I gagged him he'd be a little closer to my type.

Totally. I love this footage and this is his stone cold classic album. I just slightly prefer L'Homme à tête de chou because it's similar, but goes further into weirdo Prog Chanson territory. I think there was originally a film/video for the entire album, not just the "Melody" track. At least I remember seeing them on YouTube years ago.
I'll raise you with this studio footage of "Requiem pour un con"... Blonde Redhead was jocking this shit so hard circa 1998-2000:

did not think I'd post in this thread again BUT L'homme à tête de chou is one my all-time fave albums.
This song in particular..... I feel you really have to understand French to get how brillant the lyrics are. Genius level, nothing compares to this in the english speaking world IMHO. Or if something does, I'd love to discover it!
also the Maison Gainsbourg (museum) just opened this year in Paris, but it's goddamn impossible to get tickets and I'm pissed. Supposedly it's gonna be possible to get tickets in november for a 2024 visit....

damn I just watched that Requiem pour un con vid, I had never seen it! it's from a movie with actor Jean Gabin, huge French legend too....the white-haired guy at 1'18. I absolutely have to see that movie now! (Le pacha)

pretty accurate....well except for the "scoring" part :P

I take it you don't speak French. As for the music, well if you don't hear it I guess you simply don't.
By the way, we'd be remiss to appreciate Melody Nelson without mentioning Jean-Claude Vannier. The musicality in that album is mostly his I believe. Same goes for other Gainsbourg albums. He worked with some of the best library musicians. Arthur Greenslade on the Bonnie and Clyde album for example. Also went to Jamaica to make reggae with Sly and Robbie.
Another Vannier Gainsbourg score worth a listen:

I noticed the other day the first person I’ve seen wear these shoes on film so far is that blind skater on YouTube.Are you insinuating that Vans is sending this person the Beatrice Zahba model, but is telling them”Yo’, enjoy those Half Cabs we sent you” in an effort to liquidate the excess, surplus stock of Beat’s shoe taking up all that shelf space in their warehouse?
There was a certain joy brought to me knowing the only person skating her colorway is a man who has no clue what they look like or whose they are.

I just don’t get it; if you’re gonna leave then leave, otherwise if you’re just gonna always come back then why go through the hassle of deleting it? Making a big fuss about deleting your shit only to come back is just a bad look.Expand QuoteExpand Quoteprivate ig again[close]
I find this back-and-forth dance she does between a public and private Instagram to be kinda funny. She should just have a public "business" account, a private personal one, and not engage in the comments.
It's like my friend who regularly deletes his profile, then pops up almost immediately with a different one, and still lurks. Those mental health breaks don't seem to be working.[close][close]
If itis a personal account and not a business one, it’s probably „just“ social media/ internet addiction. That thing is no joke. Ask them, how you can support them

I disagree. I think Clyde is a genuine lover of skatebloarding. Nor do I think he's blowing smoke.
Self critical attitude isn't mandatory in skating though it's the norm.
I back her skating I don't see any reason why Clyde wouldn't. He's a fuckin lifer and a fakie pioneer. Why would he lie?
Nothing can take that away because he got off ass and went to film so it's set in stone.

i bought canned fire roasted tomatoes.
i put them in a stew and was hoping i would get the smokey flavor i have come to love from some tomatoes actually roasted on an open flame.
my disappointment was immeasurable.
often times i wonder, how long are they roasting these tomatoes? do they even use real fire? is it just genetic freak tomatoes sitting under some lizard lamp, then they get torched a little bit so you can fondle a tomato or two fresh out the can and say "ahh, the char marks, they mustve hand roasted these, this should be good".
but its just a can of fire roasted lies.
am i sounding like you yet?
i dont care
im gonna eat my sad tomatoes

I prefer Columbian blends to Kona these days. Just a tad more depth of flavor.
He definitely is referring to skate history but does hometown matter really? Most Floridians had their biggest moments in CA. Reynolds, Mullen, Cairo, even Clyde. Schmidts woodshop is here. I mean, I don't exactly think CA should take that credit but its a massive claim to say FL is more important.
And being from CA Ive always noticed/felt the Anti-CA thing at times but its really just weather, the size of California's economy and the birthplace of it. Its all happenstance and really has nothing to do with the skaters. In a parallel universe, skateboarding is invented in Malaga or Dallas or somewhere warm and we all visit there or some shit. Obviously not that literal but Ive just always felt there were more non-skate reasons facilitating CA being the hub than skaters dictating it.
Clyde was a great skater, but if he hadn't been on 101, I doubt he'd be remembered and lauded to the same degree. Today's standard for "Legendary Skater" are very low.

I never got the hype. The dude had bad style, all stiff and sketchy with his arms cocked all weird. Compared to guys like Gino and Kareem he was easily the worst guy on at that time.
He talks a lot of shit about legend status and what it means to have a pro board after your prime, while he does the most to suckle at the teet of the industry after being absent for like a decade. Correct me if I'm wrong but I feel like he just popped up outta nowhere in the past few years and now he's on some kinda publicity run. His whole brand is based on a know-it-all attitude, fried takes, and bad jokes that should've been put to bed thirty years ago.

Did Florida really ever even have a scene? I think of EMB in those regards, and all the legendary spots that California claims.
Nevermind the entire industry at one point, and from the start being birthed there.
If we’re just pointing at influential pros, ok, Florida has sway, but I don’t know that it’s enough to validate Clyde’s claims.
Personally I don’t think it is.
Furthermore, the progression itself nearly all happened in California.

I obviously wasn't there or anything, but I remember reading/hearing Lucero or Blender say if Rodney didn't do the flatground ollie, someone would've done it soon after that, because they were already doing crack ollies at that time. It also took California guys like Gonz to apply the maneuver to the street.
Gelfand's ollie was a big step, but as a counterpoint, was Tony Hawk the one possibly progressing that trick the most, since he was too small to get tons of air before tricks without it? Believe it was seen as a cheat by some at the time, but the technique was "invented" by necessity.
And wasn't Gonz the one who wanted to drill his nose back more? I feel like I've heard multiple claims to the modern board's development. Mullen obviously had some influence. Schmitt might have been the one to execute it, and hone it?
Obviously not trying to take anything away from Mullen, Gelfand and Schmitt by the way... just presenting a little devil's advocacy.

I was making a Berra joke from the BATB13 thread.
Of course I’m well acquainted with Rodney’s skating. I’m pushing 40 years old!
While we’re on the subject of Rodney, I’d argue that while yes he had invented numerous flip tricks, he didn’t really actually do anything with them.. not until pushed by Mike Ternasky.
Yes he’s an innovator, but I’d argue the Gonz and Natas are what shaped modern street skating. Then of course you have your Pat Duffy’s that took it to that whole next level.

Of course I’m well acquainted with Rodney’s skating. I’m pushing 40 years old!
While we’re on the subject of Rodney, I’d argue that while yes he had invented numerous flip tricks, he didn’t really actually do anything with them.. not until pushed by Mike Ternasky.
Yes he’s an innovator, but I’d argue the Gonz and Natas are what shaped modern street skating. Then of course you have your Pat Duffy’s that took it to that whole next level.
Rodney Mullen cry tooo much. He needs to find some balance.

White folks can't buy loosies or any other contraband at the bodega anymore. It was difficult in the 90s and 00s too.
They know that almost all whites are softer than a cloth diaper full of baby shit on a hot summer day. And it's only a matter of time till they get caught up in some non related crimes and rat off everything they ever seen in their lives.
I almost never never to engage in any level of crime with other unknown Whites.

Agreed. It’s just a Beatrice is so basic that’s her flat ground is actually her main thing may be higher up in women’s category, but still really standard in general. I’d rather see a una double flip than hers anyway. I only put it in the context of the first and only woman’s batb. Which was the weakest shit ever.

Is there any reference point for a guy skater that's comparable to Beatrice? Barely has a grasp on tricks, only has a handful but is well supported and sponsored by the industry for whatever reason? She falls more on the influencer / youtuber side of the newer industry, but I don't really know anyone in that world supported by the core skate industry like she is.

All these people accusing Rodney of not doing anything with the tricks he invented, have you guys actually watched his parts recently? He was doing shit over 20 years ago that would be insane if it was done today. Not only did he switch crook fakie varial heel out the top of a school table, but here are some other memorables:
Impossible nose manual nollie flip out (also did a nollie impossible out)
front crook nollie hardflip out a school bench
back 5-0 varial heelflip top of a school table to nose manual a smaller bench below
halfcab crook nollie inward heel
halfcab crook nollie back heel out
front crook nollie backside flip out

he also darkslid like a 12 stair hubba as well.

Good business move for Dill tho cause I’m sure he made more $ on this shit this time around than he ever could have hawking tees and hoodies for maybe 2 or 3 years before hypebeasts moved on.

Never would have expected that it would become what it is in now ten years ago.Having a company with lax producing standards was seen as disruptive and punk in 2014. Not so much now. Also I know AVE still skates but FA was always Dill's creative endeavor and him not skating or even just out on sessions is a huge demotivating factor for a team dynamic. I wonder if he is even aware Sean left. No public acknowledgement of it after that letter wishing well to Tyshawn and Nak (who publicly shat on your brand for being lazy) was shady.

Stayed in 2006? Based off your posts I get the impression you're between the age of 12 and 19. What kind of alternate reality do you live in? Fucking Awesome was not even an idea in 2006.
You are very passionate I can tell, and that's respectable.
But, you're also pretty uninformed, and that combined with passion, is dangerous and annoying.
Maybe you should just read more and contribute your thoughts less for the time being.[close]
this post is so good
let’s not tell him[close]
I'm a kook.

I didn't know FA had been around that long either, but I had my doubts about your inference of his age vs. him using the word, "wack." I say it all the time myself and my nephew makes fun of me for it.[close]
You cats are the young ones… Back in 05-06 when Dill was cracked out and still living in NYC he created Fucking Awesome. It was some spontaneous shit and it had nothing to do with skateboarding. He dropped like a handful of T-shirts and a couple of hoodies and closed up shop. It was very brief and underground… yet sought after because of the hype…[close]
I always thought FA was not any kind of hit and just failed to launch the first time around. This wasn’t based on any actual knowledge though…just assumed at the time since it blew.
Expand QuoteFucking Awesome was and is fucking wack. Without Dill’s Supreme connection that shit wouldn’t have lasted 3 years.

I miss Alien. That was the best era.
On an unrelated note, reading these past couple of pages reaffirms exactly why I love this place. It reminds me of a forgotten, dusty corner of an ancient library. The retention of such obscure information as a fucking Etnies x FA collab from the brand’s beta stage in the mid 2000’s is so fascinating to me. The rest of the world forgot that it forgot that shit but some of you scribes keep those miniscule footnotes in our history polished and for that I’m grateful.Shout out to minuscule footnotes: you know the scribes!
Yes I’m fucking stoned.
Or any interview where Dill talks about making FA tshirts back in 2001...
