Mark Suciu 'Verso'

[ArtVandelay]

Omg you guys!! A good source of mine at Thrasher just leaked this letter they sent to Mark! i guess he’s cooked! Omg!!

Dear Mark,

As you have failed to turn in your mid-career project ‘Verso’, we have no choice but to drop you from skateboarding. You have repeatedly asked for an extended deadline saying “one more week, please, just one more week, I swear to god!” You’ve given multiple excuses including your dog chewed on your wheels, you had mono, and that your grandma was in the hospital - we looked into that - your grandma died in 1999, Mark. Recent attempts to contact you have been unsuccesful. Everytime we call, someone (we know it’s you Mark) answers and says “me no know no Mark, no hablo Englesh.” These circumstances leave us no choice but to withdraw you from skateboarding, Mark. You can appeal this decision by trying to contact the spirit of Jake Phelps and obtain a pardon. For better luck with that try our ’Thrashin Ouija Board’ ($19.99). You can always try skateboarding again in your next lifetime.

Best of luck Suicu,
Thrasher Magazine, High Speed Productions INC.
P.s. we are hiring box packers in our warehouse. Contact us if you’d like to be considered.

He was talking about how he’s put out parts in the past that he’s hated, and that this is the part he’s been working towards his whole life. Way to increase pressure and expectations though lol

He'd better get ready for disappointment.  Every time I have something major in my life I'm working on and say to myself "This will be something incredible and defining that I'll be proud of and use to move even further forward in life", it never lives up to the self-imposed hype and a hard crash usually follows.

Not saying that it won't be a good part, hell, maybe even a great part, but when you get so autistic that you literally treat this as if you're creating a symphony that people will be appreciating hundreds of years later and not the "Cool video bro, but next week everyone will be focused on someone else's shit that's hot" situation life is today, it's gonna hurt bad once reality kicks in.

True. Shalom.

Didn't he also say in that interview he's going to do his best to make the part as perfect as he wants it but he also understands if he can't and won't be too upset because sometimes things like that are out of your control?

Sometimes I think Slap’s lost its edge, then I read something like this and it makes it all Slap again

Looks like Mark’s plan is going accordingly.

Bravo.

[jerrygurneyscream]

seriously huge shouts out to mark suciu this shit is legendary for real

[CreepySweaty]

Mark has really given us a gift here.

Here are the potential outcomes:
1. He drops the part and it exceeds all ludicrous expectations, becoming a legendary piece of skate cinema instantly.

2. The part is a complete disappointment, giving the world of skateboarding a new slice of history. A new inside-joke. This has already begun on SLAP, and will be brought to the masses on Skateline or some shit.

3. The part never comes out and becomes as mythological as the missing MJ or Danny Way part. It is added to the short list of skate media Holy Grails, and we all argue for the next 2 years about whether or not the footage came out in other videos, or if Mark kept it all to himself.

We really can’t lose.

HA! HA! Your profile pic on insta is Tim Allen's mugshot!

Sucui really "slid out of" that one. A real body bender.

[Pappy Jones]

I wish Mark was playing this more like Joaquin Phoenix in "I'm Still Here"

I submit this thought as part of the ongoing effort to get this thread to 1000 posts pre-video drop, let's do it lads

That is absolutely going to happen. Seeing as this thread is in its 27th page, we’ve already surpassed 800 posts and I’d be very surprised if this shit came out this month.

anyone notice the crew was cracking street sodas and Suciu had a PELEGRINO in hand?

likely shifting the convo from pieces of ass in the city, to his thesis of elasticity.

Everybody’s putting yellow mustard on their hot dogs, Mark whips out the Grey Poupon.

Everybody’s listening to Wu Tang, Mark changes it to NPR.

Crew’s going to a titty bar, Mark’s going to the new Frida Kahlo exhibition.

Everybody’s at the Holiday Inn, Mark’s at a quaint bed and breakfast looking at antique tea kettles.

while ya'll be straight bummed that the guac cost extra....mark cracked a chia pop with the agave nectar

while ya'll be giggling about memes, big titty's on goths...mark shifted his 401k into a high yield ROTH

while ya'll be waking, feeling crusty and dry...mark finished a crossword, sipping matcha on ice

while ya'll be mubbling about a puleo theory...beethovens 9th left mark open, inspired and teary

While the crew is out trying to rescue KB, Mark is contemplating the existential meaning behind alerting Instagram instead of the local authorities.  He's concluded that it has something to do with institutional racism, but its probably because he was really really really high.

That was good!

Also reminded me of a few things. Suicu gets pretty buck. His switch kickflips, and regular heelflips look gross.

Not sure if this satisfied me? Or made me want to see his new part more?
