What’s the top 5 of skaters that lost their grip on reality due to childhood skateboarding fame (money and drugs too, of course) and attempted and failed to live the rock and roll dream
1) Jereme Rogers- quit at his peak to start a musical career with no talent. Constantly lambasts fans online. Lost all his money but flaunts an ‘LA’ lifestyle via social media.
2) Bastien Salabanzi- Kooked himself out of sponsors at his peak, supposedly due to egotistical and unreasonable tendencies. Ended up on kart- Europe’s biggest joke before getting a pity board on primitive.
Wants to be a successful musician but hasn’t made it yet.
3)?
4)?
5) “I was sex and drugs, she thought she was rock and roll”- Ragdoll on hooking up with Avril Lavigne.
Despite having absolutely no place in the pro ranks, Ragdoll secures a pay check and an enjoyable lifestyle due to the early 2000’s skate industry cash influx due to the popularity of tony hawk’s pro skater and MTV friendly pop-punk.
It’s not all ties over tee shirts and checkerboard vans though, ragdoll revealed he ended up a bulimic with a colostomy bag.
Help me fill in the blanks guys.
