It’s skateboarding, let’s make some rules.

[cucktard]

‘Skateboarding doesn’t have rules!!!!’1-1

Is bullshit. It does, and some of the rules and regulations are pretty shitty and in need of an update.

Rule proposal #1- Stop fucking littering

Including pros and others leaving old gear for others to scavenge. There’s got to be a better system, like a drop box at your local.

[ungzilla]

rule #2, all videos must come out on laser disc

[fulltechnicalskizzy]

whoever has the most fun wins

[fulltechnicalskizzy]

fun will be broken down into 3 categories, each judged on a 10 point scale

[quesly]

"Don't be a Kook" is the golden rule of skateboarding and its ambiguous enough to cover all bases

[Gabagoolslide]

Make sure bring trash bag and recycle bag, upcyle old decks, douche pussy after sesh an listen npr

[trashparty]

yeah im with you on the littering for sure. shit is outrageous at my local.

the last thing i wanna do after work is pick up after others.

i still make myself pickup 10 pieces of trash before i leave the park tho. this will often cause a sort of chain reaction and others will start helping. even groms sometimes.

but ya

PICK UP YOUR FUCKING TRASH

[LordManHammer]

Anyone who is a lifestyle nfluencer or YouTube loser gets put out as a kook and no one is fucking with them.

Keep skating fun but with the right gatekeepers, yeah it should be inclusive to a certain extent but DON'T BE A KOOK OR ANYTHING THAT REMOTELY SUCKS...

Don't ask me where a spot is fucktard figure it out for yourself and build it if you can't find it.

It's always crazy to me when I go to a known skate get down & see trash. I figure it must be "ravers" or something & not skaters because a your not an animal and b have some respect for the sesh. . Good thing my local is at a park & everyone takes their after session water bottle with them

Finally a poster with a username who not just talks the talk, but walks the walk. Thank you trashparty for making clean up time fun for everybody! You’re doing the lords work.

+1 on littering. Leaving trash everywhere doesn't make you more gnarly or cool, you just fucking suck. The trash can is 2 feet away.

- Don't judge people by their setup (unless it's a bunch of Nazi/hate shit). It's a wooden toy, it's really not that deep.

- Don't judge by skill level. I've seen way too many people basically force beginners out of the skate park (out of all places) just because they were beginners. If you wanna act tough and shit, just leave the park all together and go skate street.

haha the trashparty name actually comes from this one time me and my homies stole some city trash cans and brought them to the skatepark as obstacles to put at the end of banks and do tricks over. anyways, some city officials/a cop showed up and one of the city guys said, "looks like a nice little TRASHPARTY you guys got going on here" we all burst out laughing at that phrase "trash party" and it has always stuck with me since. we gave the cans back without a fight but couldnt stop giggling. we got a stern talking to afterwards from the cop about respecting city property and city officials poor word choice. 

me and the boys continue to steal trash cans and skate over them, and everytime we do we refer to it as a "trash party". one of my biggest accomplishment in skateboarding is ollie'ing one of those fuckers upright on flat. i love trash cans. 10/10 better than traffic cones.

im also currently working on a mini vx part that is entirely dedicated to tricks involving trash cans / bins / dumpsters / recycling posts/ all waste related obstacles. will definitely post on SLAP when finished. be on the lookout

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

don't litter, don't be a nazi, don't rape people and try really hard not to be Sinner or Prawn Powers

[Colt Cannon's Cargos]

No

[Mesteezo]

No fucking flyout benihanas.

[CrappyChan]

Don't buy all your gear from skateamerica.com and then wonder why you aren't sponsored. Don't do those pushes where your foot just grazes the ground in between tricks in a line. If you cant pop your trick at least 6 inches off the ground do a different trick. This especially goes for kickflips

[Sluggloaph]

Littering is a red flag behavior. Not even in skating.
Solid life hack: trash goes in trash can.

[fredgallSOTY]

no tight pants or else you will get fed to a shark

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

don't litter, don't be a nazi, don't rape people and try really hard not to be Sinner or Prawn Powers

also, yo flips are prohibited with no exceptions

[Bugsytootsie]

#1 Don’t fake your style/steez. An effortless style is only cool when it’s obviously not forced

[chrisskates808]

NO KOOKS!

[Sick_McCrank_]

littering is the worst. even if theres trashcans 10m away mostly young people litter and YOLO. also spiting on the ground...

other than that just have fun and respect others.

all people trying forbid people to do stuff (yo-flips for example) they enjoy doing should kook themselfes. because it conficts with rule 1 Fun and rule 2 Respect others. People can do yo flips all the time. theire life, their choices as long as they dont harm others ("yada yada it harms me to watch them do yo flips" is a bad argument btw.) if it hurts you to see homosexuals  its still no excuse to forbid it to them to be as they want. youre not more important than them!

just be nice to people as long as they dont behave like assholes. simple rule for life.

[Prostate Exam]

#1: Don't ask for money on social media

[Hyliannightmare]

Don't make fun of longboarders if there actually trying to get some sick carving in at the local we are all one 4 wheeled team

[Sick_McCrank_]

btw in my expierence its usually not skaters who litter spots. but they get to deal with the consequences.
the place we skated as kids was also frequented by kids who didnt skate, all they did was smoke weed, litter, spit on the ground and vandalise.
in return, we the skaters had to deal with the result: frequent cop visits who took our weed, blame from the facility manager, a surveillance cam beeing installed etc. if there were ledges which could have been skated im sure they would have skate stopped them aswell.

[TD]

+1 to all skate vids must come out on laserdisc

+1 to cleaning up after yourself

Another rule: no tights under your shorts

[IpathCats]

My thread related to this got locked. Mods won't tell me why.

But creating a funny/semi serious list of rules is where I was heading with it.
