what about Gardner’s pants (I already own some)?

[finknoos]

A bunch of companies are gonna come out with glow in the dark skateboard parts, clothes, shoes, and charge extra for them.

I accidentally bought some glow in the dark cruiser wheels from enjoi recently, they just looked white in the day light.

Rehashing an old trend to make a quick buck is easier than innovation though, so I guess we'll see.

A lot of parts will be set to Doom midi files.

Papyrus font will also make a huge comeback.

this is hilarious

well, too bad nobody mentioned milk crates, as they seem to be catching the skate world by storm at the moment

[jakeumms]

Instagram will soon be so besieged by inquiries into it's impact on user's mental health that Facebook will shift focus with it and lose the audience ala Tumblr. Most of that audience which will move over to TikTok, which will then make it the primary feeder for skate media.

This might be coming from a few years back but having a shit style seems to be pretty trendy

Damn you might’ve been right on the nose. After a day without Instagram I’m sure plenty of pros have made a TikTok today to keep up that dopamine flow. Then again tik tok is still awful but 2016 Instagram of quick edit trap song montages pretty much laid the ground work for tik tok.

I actually saw some idiot little kid doing those dumb little dances in the park for his phone while I was skating the other day. It was weird to see a wannabe influencer in the wild like that .

Instagram and YouTube are also starting to clap down on bail clips as they promote unsafe behavior.

Skate tiktok is pretty fucking cringe not gonna lie. seeing ams and pros making weirdass edits here and there and putting on a weird tiktok persona makes me throw up in my mouth each time.

There's a small handful of pros on tiktok that don't completely kook it but Jake Hayes and Julian Davidson are the only ones that really come to mind.

Nah, it's just like how in 2010 it was cool to use a 70's look filter on your photos. In 2034 the trend is to use a 2006 digital camera filter.

Oh man also I’m surprised people haven’t mentioned masks. Or bandanas. That’s a trend that isn’t going away yet. A nice bandana around the neck goes well with some bootcut jeans and a trucker hat...

And by “nice” I just mean that there is some precedent, not that it actually looks cool

BA is rocking a neck bandana in his new Ace ad

But now I’m also noticing that the past year had a big spike in people wearing bandanas over their hair, pirate style. It’s a terrible trend and I hope it stops but it probably has a bit more upswing before it’s over.

following up on my own post to review: i think the pirate bandana over the hair kinda came and went without doing too much damage, thank goodness. here's hoping 2022 will see it fade into obscurity once again, where it belongs
