That was awesome. I'm sure TWS doesn't have two nickles to rub together, but I'd love if they could send Carnie to Tokyo as a correspondent.

Andy Anderson, I cannot sanction your buffoonery.

Damn I haven't read any Carnie in ages... Brought back some good memories.

In the latter days of Big Brother I would send a readers letter by e-mail every now and then and Carnie would always respond. I remember he would even sent like a 500 words rant that was basically as funny as any of his articles. He must be a very quick writer.

This is the only news about the olympics that actually sounds good. Carnie is one of the best skateboard journalist out there if not actually the best. Fear and loathing at the 2020 olympics.

Dave is the fucking best. He inspired a young me to take an interest in all things literature. I'm sure he will do as good as he can, and better than anyone else could, despite transworld's censorship.

I remember him writing in the Skateboard mag. He had a great way of letting his personality get into the article without it taking over the article, or tainting it in any way. Really solid writer.

”I’m just saying that rollerbladers ruling over skateboarders is pretty wacky to begin with, but then rollerbladers ruling over snowboarders riding on skateboards is even wackier. And that’s why I’m backing it.”

Now I’m backing it
You know I thought these forums were a for skating not discussing fetishes

Dave Carnie writing for Transworld about the Olympics on a page flanked by Mountain Dew ads. How badly did he need the 40 bucks this paid?

  I never liked his writing.  Pontinus was funny, Cannale and others were good but im not a Carnie fan.

It’s like he’s on the high school debating team, and he had to argue for skateboarding in the olympics, against his true sentiment. “It’s so bad it’s good” is about the best you could have asked, really.
