"Unofficial" Pals Questions - Jordan Taylor (Gordo)

[Monkey_Mcpott]

Took a little break, making this thread a little over 2 days before we film to give everyone a little more time to put in their questions instead of the typical 24 hours.

Meeting Jordan on Tuesday, ask away. Will make a post before filming begins marking the cutoff. Keep in mind guests can skip over questions so try to keep the questions good and the troll questions to a minimum.

Name: Jordan Taylor aka Gordo

Known for: “Fat and Wack”, Dance Moves, Skits, 3 Ninjas, Toy Machine Brainwash, “Who’s the dude who dances in those…he does like he was doing like the crazy….umm…” - Crob

Interest: Basketball (Go Celtics!), looking for spots, Joe Rogan podcast, stand up comedy, movies, making short films, going to the gym, walking my dog, getting married soon, working on a new balance video, decaf coffee, arts and crafts, baths and candles

Shalom



Edit: Here you go guys!! Big thanks to Feedmeseymour for the edit as always. More episodes to come! Once again, keep in mind that guests can skip any question so keep them good and don’t be surprised if your question got skipped because it sucked.



Preview of the next guest is at the end of each episode

Why’s it taken toy a decade to produce a video?

Why did Toy not make u the face of the brand after brainwash? Considering u are the most original skater they sponsored on their actual team in years?

Jordon Taylor is genuinely one of my favourites.

2019 has been quite horrible, with massive names passing away. I feel unusually shaken by it all, particularly with the loss of Ben Raemers- how is the industry doing? Have you been reminded to look out for your homies?

Changing gear: Where do you get your falafel?

[Madam, I'm Adam]

Hey Jordan, big fan of your going pro part for WKND. Thanks if you answer any questions.

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage! I have to ask, being newly married myself, how you dealt with the idea of pre-nuptial agreements.

Is it true that WKND asked Thrasher to take down Lee Yankou's recent Blue Tile Lounge video part because it had the same Leonard Cohen song they were using for the Sir Palmer vid, and if so...I mean, isn't that lame?

Who's better, you or your brother? Who are your favourite brothers in skateboarding?

Let's say you're driving down the street and you see a skater getting hassled by some wannabe gangbangers. No weapons but they're surrounding the kid and yelling at him. The kid who's getting hassled sees you and his face lights up, presumably because he recognizes you. Will you pull over to intervene, or drive away?

John Shanahan and Aiden Mackey, even though they're modern pros, are both into different styles from different past times in skating. Do you think what they're doing is contrived or do you like it? I love it, personally.

[Painted Baby]

Upcoming movie you look forward to see?

[sus]

Where do you draw inspiration from/get ideas for your skits from? Do you come up with ideas for the skits in the WKND videos and if so, which ones?

I like your unique approach to skating spots, when did you start skating/looking at spots that way and what was the reasoning behind it?

How do you feel about people saying you look identical to Leonardo DiCaprio? Have there been any ideas to recreate any of his scenes for a wknd skit?

If you could steal a single trick from anybody on the WKND team, what would it be?

If you never got into skateboarding, what do you think you would be doing now?


Thanks for bringing a fun and enjoyful take to skateboarding and for making me smile every time I watch your video parts! Below is how i feel when i watch your footage:
