When did duffel become slaps sweetheart?
Isn’t he cancelled? You pals are so fickle.

He may be cancelled to you gimps but he certainly isn’t cancelled to me.
Also Kenny Anderson, Figgy and Fred Gall aren’t cancelled either and still have my full support.
Johan and Biebel can go to hell though.

When did Freddy get cancelled? Am I missing something?

He used the n word in a tweet 12 years ago so the SJW’s got upset.

It was in a mag, thats like a tweet but printed on paper. It’s what thasher used to be before it was a clothing company.
Crazy

Double wrist casts reminded me - remember how he back tailed Oceanside hubba but they only got a photo
Goes back with filmer and he breaks both wrists

He handled some burly ass shit in his day

[michael scarn]

Of course he's using this as an opportunity to plug his CBD sponsor

great question that i'll take at face value instead of addressing it as the signal virtue it actually is.

duffels talked, at length, about how remorseful he is. he's made amends, he's done the work, and he's talked to the people he hurt. he's done the work to understand why he said what he did, and doesn't try to shift blame. additionally, he's still talking about how remorseful he is to this day, like, 20 years later.

Y’all ever once hear Stevie Williams talking about how cool Duffman is? Nope. Never.

cbd lotion and canned water will cure what ails him

I know multiple people who rave about that Liquid Death canned water, swearing it’s the best and better, etc. I don’t get it.
I’ve been drinking quite literally nothing but water for years now, and that Liquid Death shit is just water. There is nothing special about it.

Liquid death is a terrible name for a water company.
We literally need water to survive. Least dangerous thing ever.

I love watching videos of their riders crack open like 4 cans and pour them into their giant water bottles and just throw the cans away... just get a fuckin Brita dude

what’s so hard for you to understand about what’s special about liquid death? the name is bad frickin ass, and it comes in a can so it looks like i’m sessioning beers not gay ass water

he wont need a brace or compression, his pants will increase his recovery time drastically

[Spacetravelisboring]

He works at a record shop, and according to that Slam City interview he did recently working there a couple days week is about equivalent to his pro salary in the later years.

I thought he worked at some thrasher store too.

I had an ankle surgery when I was 18, one of my tendons was torn so bad that it had to be replaced. I was given 3 options, synthetic tendon (not strong enough for everyday skating), tendon from a horse mandible (stronger, but not the best), or cadaver. I chose cadaver tendon. There are inherent risks involved such as rejection, mobility issues, paralysis etc. I went for it, and it was fucking gnarly! I remember reading Jonny Layton I think had the same procedure and described it as his worst injury. I was on crutches for months, then a cane, and then had a limp for a long time. It was probably about a year til I could skate again. I came back stronger than ever though, and learned a lot of tricks post surgery, it was really rewarding. Downsides are that I can’t feel half of my foot, I couldn’t even move my pinky toe for a long time. It feels numb and asleep, and if it gets touched or grazed unexpectedly it almost hurts. I always have to wear ankle brace or high tops, and I can’t really jump down anything (especially being 30 now). Anyway I hope to see duffel out there at least pushing around soon...

duffman was my favorite skate from 2007 to around 2010 still think he's rad  hope he gets well

1 year actually seems like too little for something that big, I spent almost that when I broke my arm anyway, I'd happily take it for new tendons. I think I would consider the horse ones though, jumping down stuff is a big part of skating to me.

working a couple of days a week at a record store and he can still afford to live in SoCal?

[MeanestCleanestPenis]

Maybe he bought that house in Walnut Creek in the mid 2000s before everything remotely close to SF got crazy?

He's sober and I often think of the property I could have bought with the money I've spunked in bars over the years.

Horse mandible tendon isn’t as strong though. I figured I’d stay within my species. I was in PT 5 days a week, had to kinda learn to walk again after being off it so long and having that kind of replacement. The procedure itself was super gnarly, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone and would take most other injuries over that. Especially if you’re jumping.

Pretty sure he’s in Northern California. But yeah. Same question. Guess Foundation used to pay.
