it is funny to watch Slap spend pages entertaining SlapRhaters' arbitrary list of compulsory skate moves, when we all know that the only TRUE "skateboarders" are those of us who can roll in on vert...

confirmed fact

Phelps just take a chill pill for a second. Just because someone can't roll into the Widowmaker doesn't mean the universe will collaspe and colours won't exist anymore.

hah, you got me son

and continuing on with the fascinating conversation above regarding blindside craze, i offer exhibit #2 via one Peter Hewitt

or maybe, just another excuse to bring a little more Peter Hewitt into everybody's lives...you're welcome

That one guy is engaging in credentialism. By his logic, someone who hasn't directed a movie can't criticize a movie. Every critique Roger Ebert wrote is meaningless.

Lance Mountain quote

“Skateboarding doesn’t make you a skateboarder: not being able to stop skateboarding makes you a skateboarder.”

Being a skateboarders like being an artist, it's subjective no-one can decide who is and who isn't an artist. People can decide if your good artist or a good skateboarder however. Hope this answers your question

I consider someone a skater, when a skate video gives them the same reaction as a porn vid, and they get a physical raging hardon or wet pussy when watching someone kickflipping a 14+ stair set.

When all you can think about/care about is skateboarding. You know it when you become it and you can see it in others. "When the bug bit them", so to speak.

Duh. It’s the first time you get in a fight with a jock from your school because he called you a skater f—. That’s why dudes that start as adults will never count.

This is truer than many might like to admit, but only for skaters of a certain age. Nowadays plenty of jocks are decent skateboarders, to my lasting disgust.
