The comments are not favourable.[close]
I'm getting vision street wear vibes.
Like with the natas, shoe brands care more about making a statement with the collabs. Unless it's an Am/pro trying to prop up their income with a colorway.

USELESS WOODEN TOY BANTER / Re: Do you subscribe to Thrasher Magazine (print)?
« Last post by radcunt on Today at 03:22:53 PM »Whenever I read anything burnett writes, I can hear his nasal, timid, poser voice.
Please skate gods, give the reigns to forest edwards or andy roy... like someone that actually knows what riding a skateboard feels like, instead of this dork photographer.
I’m sure he’s good at the mechanical running of the business, which is why he was there but any time he writes it sucks the air off the page. He’s no fuckin writer and you can tell he does it for ego and to pay himself / save bucks. Employ Cole Nowicki from simple magic. Easily the best skate writer going atm.

Insane the amount of obscure combos he does in this. Big fan.

Will I get ~clowned~ / shamed for skating a nice pro deck as a relatively newish skater (2 years, learning basic grinds and flip tricks, not a park hero but not a slow skater)?
I only ask because I'm sure people will say something if I was skating super rare Dunks or some LV collab supreme board...
Like, I feel like if I'm skating a Supreme or FA deck (I live in NY so they're not hard to get) will make people cringe because I can probably re-sell? Is that still a thing?
If I find an old Limo or Frog deck that isn't for sale anymore, is that shit rare? What about a Violet board? I feel like the prices are standard so they're not ~collectable~ but I've never seen someone IRL skating a Violet board, probably because people want to hang them up or something?
I wouldn't stress it for a second, the subset of people who collect boards within skateboarding is super small, and even they likely wouldn't trip out unless they saw you on the Jake Johnson Alien debut board or something, and even then they might be stoked.
All the brands you named are readily commercially available as you noted, so any perceived scarcity or exclusivity is pure marketing. Even if there's a board that in the future will become collectible, nobody will know about it for years until 99% of that model has been skated and left for dead.
All that to say, if there's a graphic or brand you like, go for it.

« Last post by Made In China on Today at 03:02:28 PM »Damn this dude's style is so good. I found out about him from a clip that @whatpantsarethose on IG posted awhile back. I think he the song he skated to is by Hooky too, which is a band my friend showed me kinda recently.
