Fuck
Ass
No.
.......

Scientology has found a new skateboarding alien spirit boy in Aaron kyro. Berra is old news. He's probably chock full o' thetans now. If we don't start supporting the berrics more, he might never go clear.

Berries doesn't need our support. They're the qualifying park for USA Champs. https://usaskateboarding.com/

I've read it several times as a rumo(u)r: Is Koston actually a scientologist? :(

Wouldn't be surprised ...

Looks like he dabbled in it:

No where near as much as Berra:

And YouTube preteen favorite Aaron Kyro:

Whoa, Kyro is deep... OT6! But Berra needed the Purification Rundown in '99, so maybe he was having issues around that time?

It's fuckin' wild that you can search this shit.

Just dropping in to say the recent Bronze56k radio has a hilarious Berra-themed faux commercial.

Time to coin the phrase faux-mercial for that style of parody humor.

You know, if you listen to the song "Daniel" by Elton John, but substitute "Berra" for Daniel in the song's lyrics as you listen, it makes for quite the profound experience.

There's not a limited supply of negativity. We can talk plenty of shit about Steve Berra and still have enough left for the Pat Duffys and Johans of the world.

To be honest, I kind of want this one board of his as a wall hanger for reasons.


I think I still have a couple of these stickers.  They don't even say Berra on them.  I sold a few on ebay a couple years back and stated that in bold as a key selling feature.

The times I talked/contacted him for random stuff he was always very helpful and friendly.
I didn't get "asshole" vibes from at all to be honest ...

But the whole scientology stuff is beyond cringe/awful so it balances everything out I guess.

That must be some random ass stuff if you had to contact Berra for it

Berras from Nebraska so he can turn on his normal midwestern guy persona if the situation warrants

one time Berra came to the spot and introduced himself to every skater one by one. "Hi, I'm Steve," he said as he shook our hands. It was strange. He didn't bring his board.

If I were there I would have insisted on calling him "Mr. Berra" just to see how it went over.

Not doubting this, but curious to read where this was said.
Hopefully not a kook, but if so, fuck it.

From the link:
If you’re ever in need of a good laugh head right over to the SLAP boards. It’s non-stop over there.

One of the on-going chats is about the Jason Dill / AVE and Fucking Awesome beef with Steve Berra and The Berrics. Whether it’s still going or not is up in the air as some of the FA kids have been skating The Berrics lately, but that’s besides the point. Just like in Rap, there’s not much more entertaining than a good ol’ fashioned skate beef. It looks like it started back in the Alien Workshop days which they were all a apart of at one point. The cool guys – AVE, Dill, and Dylan – got Steve Berra kicked off. For good reason too – he doesn’t skate. Anyway it goes on from there, even including Steve’s association with Scientology and how he can’t even mall grab correctly, but the best part is hearing about Dylan’s confrontation with Berra at a Street League contest.

Dylan was just too cool for this world.

Here is a little excerpt from an interview that Dylan did with Monster Children. Classic stuff right here from a legend:

 

Didn’t you get into a fight at one of them (Street League contest)?
A fist fight? Not a physical fight, maybe a semi-verbal confrontation. What? Did you hear the Berra story?

Yup.
Haha. That dude is a kook. So Berra was standing on the course, which I don’t know why he has any business to be on the fucking course; he’s not skateboarding. He’s on this bank ramp and I had to keep skating past him and this is right when he got kicked off of Workshop, maybe a month or two after. I kept passing him and I wasn’t trying to make things awkward, I had no beefs with Berra before. Me, AVE & Dill were the catalysts of him getting kicked off, which he had heard. My whole thing with Berra getting kicked off is that he doesn’t skate. I don’t have a problem with his Scientology. My whole thing is, ‘You don’t fucking skate, you don’t ride for The Workshop.’ We’re trying to revamp the team where it’s just fucking skate and everybody rips, everyone works hard and hits the streets every day and he wasn’t doing that. So I was like, ‘Yeah, kick the dude off.’

So I’m skating up and down this bank ramp and he’s standing right there so I’m like, ‘I’m going to say what’s up to this dude.’ I was like, ‘What up, Steve?’ and he looks at me and is like, ‘Really? Really dude? You’re going to shake my hand?’

I’m like, ‘Yeah, you’re standing here. I’m trying to be cordial. Really dude? You’re this butt hurt over the whole Workshop thing?’

He looked at me and says, ‘Keep walking, bro.’ He told me to keep walking. I was so blown away. That was it; it wasn’t a full screaming match. I just thought it was really immature. You got kicked off a team, we’ve all been kicked off, don’t take it personal. But I hear so many stories about him just being a little fucking bitch. It’s funny; he shuns me because I’m younger than him and then he runs into Dill and AVE and they pretty much shut him down. He’s all nice to them. He treats me like shit but he’s scared of them so he treats me like a little kid.

In a sense you are Dill and Ave’s kid. Did they come to your defense?
Oh, of course. They thought it was hilarious. Dill calls him out all the time. I know Dill has run into him a couple times and Berra tried to shake Dill’s hand and Dill just looked at him and was like, ‘Nope.’ It’s great.
