A small percentage of me wants to be wrong and put an amazing part together for the next Chocolate video...

Gary called it on Skateline. Not sure what Girl was thinking with that going pro promo thing?
And yeah, the thrasher cover is an ok photo but the trick is not that amazing but like I said, I'm hoping she proves me wrong with her next video part.

Do you listen to them while updating your deadjournal?

Imagine wanting to fight everyone who doesn't like all the same things you do. Must be exhausting.

Looking up at the sky is like looking into the center of a mandala. A giant sky flower. It’s so beautiful to look into. I wish I could see further. We are on the outside ring of reality. Lower then an ant hill. Hating on each other . Selfish pricks that think this is about us. It is about us. Not just you not just me. Us.

The true nature of reality can never be understood by trend hopping dick riders who judge fellow men on the kind of clothes and shoes they wear, all while claiming tolerance. The material world is a farce.

we need more gatekeeping.

Agree but also never ever gonna happen anymore. Kooks won, like REALLY. It's their world now. Fuck it, let them have this shit show.

The longer I'm in in this thing, the more second hand embarrassment cringe I feel for the ignorant clueless younger generation when I see them at a bland skatepark landing gross tricks and thinking they just invented sliced bread...all while filming for strangers on the interwebs hoping for those almighty fake forgettable likes. Go read a book you fucks.

Let the kids do their thing homie. It’s just skateboarding. It’s not that Sirius. Never ever get no second hand cringe. For realS . Just let it be what it is for whoever actually skating. Let it be what is for you and leave it at that. Sometimes people can all be climbing up the same mountain but they never knew that the other homies was also climbing up that mountain on the other side of it. Out of view. just blazing a different path.

As I respect your existential kumbaya statement friend, my rant was referring to the persons post about "gatekeeping".

You see, when you've been into this long enough, have added your own thing to this culture, affected people on your journey in your own way, then the whole script flips because of tech nerds, you can't but help not sit back and dissect it all. And in a sense, it IS that serious.

Skating in particular has always had a way of giving people a sense of entitlement, ignorant confidence, especially if you are good at doing tricks, way before this social media thing, but you add that fuel to the fire, I don't have to spell it out for you.

It is serious because we are social creatures and are pretty much forced to interact with these same individuals who actually believe in this delusional fake made up world...to a degree.

So yeah...pretty serious. But you are right, in the end, all the same path to death ;)

We’re all just goofs playing with toys, marveling at people who can play with the toys way better than us.  Kids are always gonna be kids man.  They really aren’t any different than you or I would probably be if we had grown up when they did.

You speak the truth, I would definitely be just like them, doing the same delusional shit if I was their age. Funny sad thing is, there are people our age, seeking that same fake approval everyday...so yeah, clearly, not just an age thing. But I get what you're saying buddy, stupid kids will always be kids.

Young homie
The longer you B in skateboarding
The more it b clear that it is a connection you can have with other people . Even if you think they dorks. Or kooks.
You share something with those dorks. Skateboarding is fun.  You both think so.
Gatekeepers and that mentality are for people that an jealous of other people having fun.
I like skateboarders.
I wish more people skated. Even when they are tech nerds or whatever.

you know, invariably someone says something like this, "skateboard is just a toy etc...". it's a common rhetorical trope calculated to give the impression that the person saying it is too cool/too detached to take skateboarding seriously. but i think that if you really think in that way, it's belittling and disrespectful to people who are truly passionate about skating.

Jerry Hsu has shit style. The music in his bos part is what made him seem more appealing than he actually is. Watch his old parts, knocked knee and gross looking.

Oh wow now that’s an unpopular opinion. Good on you man, speak your truth
