the Bunt is back

I guess it’s a sign of the times when people aren’t ashamed to say they want to win skateboarding. Still leaves a bad flavor in my mouth.

what is wrong with wanting to win soty ? You probably get a nice check from your sponsors and can chill for a few years after that

It promotes progression too, I’d argue. At the rate skateboarding was headed from 2017-2021 people would be back to kick turning asphalt banks on plank decks if we don’t cull the heard of curbs a bit.

It's kind of like the difference between giving money to a homeless person, but video taping it and posting to Instagram for likes, rather than for improving the well being of another human. In other words, there is a certain stoke that occurs when someone is in it for the love vs. in it for the accolades.

SOTY isn't a 'fair' race. It's not actually something a lot of the guys are in with a chance to 'win'. Burnett earmarks his choice pretty early on in the year. He created a rod for his back in 2019 with the Milton/Mark situation.

it does not have to be black or right you know.
You can love skateboarding with all your heart, feeling this ball of excitment in your belly laying in bed at night knowing you will have a good session the next day and still want to win soty. And I don't know if that is the case for him, who knows.
Some people love competition, some don't, some say they don't care about winning but secretly do. Nothing wrong with all those things.
It's not like he posted a instagram story saying "SOTY I am coming for you", that would be tad ridiculous and over the top. He answered a question honestly, also he rides for primitive and adidas, imo it's feels pretty "right" for him to care about this. If Max Palmer said that, it wouls be weird but still okay.
I mean that's just my take on it, I don't know shit.

Word is Manchild caused a scene with the Bunt guys at the Copenhagen Open, so I'm curious to see if they talk about this in the intro.

I get it but it’s also their job and their entire sense of worth. I’m not too fussed with the modern SOTY push but I don’t begrudge dudes for trying.

Jack O'Grady mentions it in a new interview, not sure what magazine, just got sent that snippet.

[Robert Baratheon]

Maybe he was giving them shit about getting shit about his act at Tampa.

Haha, more likely for shitting on him for being a complete drunk idiot at some contest in MTL where he and Korahn Gayle were the only pros skating. Whereas Korahn was cool and laid back, Manchild was acting like a moron and snaking people.

Listening to it now. The Andy Mac story has me dying.

That story and the accidentally texting Lakai to quit were hilarious.  Solid first episode from the Bunt Boys

[Nosferatu]

Good ep. Solid dude

"dude fuck outta here I don't want any red vines" haha

whole episode was great and gave off more banter/personality than I had expected.

[doublesteveburger]

so glad the boys are back in town


i'm rooting for miles - dude's sense of humor isn't terrible and reminds me of all my cousins that grew up in San Diego/Salinas

[twic3]

I got to the part where they start discussing SOTY and it got so taken out of context here. They ask him if he would like to win SOTY, what do you expect him to say no? Like he mentions, it is the cherry on top for a street skaters career.

He doesn't even say he's aiming for it but instead says "if the stars align"

[Coastal Fever]

Incredible skater, solid dude, and class act for not throwing justifiable shade back at Breezy.

[doctorkickflip]

Andy mac red vines story is incredible. Sounds like a forgotten sketch from “I think you should leave w/ Tim Robinson”

[FatGuy92]

Miles is definitely one of those dudes that is super talented but don't seem to have a sliver of personality that comes through in his skating (just IMO). Gonna go into this one with an open mind lol.

[Dark Knight]

Miles is a real one, no doubt.  Great episode.

If Walker Ryan writes a short story about this….I’ll actually read it.

Re Breezy….I wouldn’t expect Miles to be a poor sport….

[germy rogirs]

Hella good ep to kick off the season! Wonder who else they got lined up

[straight fucking edge]
