Willy Santos? Can’t say I’ve ever heard anything bad about him.

He would take food from Jeremy Klein.......
Nah you win

That would make me like him way more, Klein is a prick to everyone

Also this is super messy but it's better to be messy than to let someone get abused in silence

Imagine telling someone 5 years ago that LK would be getting JT cancelled.

Don't agree with airing it out on social. But my first thought was "when did Liz get all responsible like"

Yea, I'm no fan of all the nonsense back and forth on social media. I don't have any accounts anymore unless you count this and youtube. The thought of this between LK and JT just seems like some sort of twilight zone situation.

Not saying he’s lying, but it’s wild to immediately take something Lizard King says at face value.
I thought it wasnt just him solo, shouldve stuck with my og thought.

Lizard told me about this a few years ago. Wonder why he’s coming out with it now?

I have no idea what is going on here, but this seems like a rad shared part.  No domestic violence involved.

You're saying Lizard knew this domestic issue was happening years back and he told you? That sounds way more credible.

Karl Watson. Your argument is invalid.

That being said, fuck Tae if this is true. Makes me sad, he was a favorite of mine.

There are many stories of Karl being an annoying dick teenager who blossomed into a humble incredible man.

To be fair - most teenagers are dicks at some point, that and the man is probably mid 40s or so, that’s a looong time ago.

Also - I’ve always had a soft spot for Lizard for some reason, I think he’s natural love of skating shines through in his parts / interviews etc. He’s just a skate rat and I love that.

Being an annoying dick might not make you a decent person but thats not like being a wife beater

I've met lizard and nuge a few times both with and without friends who already knew them when I've been out in LA and honestly they were some of the nicest down to earth pleasant dudes. Buying people rounds, inviting others to play pool with them, chatting it up about skateboarding or anything else that wasn't skateboarding. Not saying that determines anything in this situation between him and Jovantae, more just echoing Jackal's statement.

I mean, most of the EMB kids were cliquey teenagers often lacking parental supervision. Even Karl would acknowledge that, but that's adolescent shit. I can't think of any bad stories about Daewon, Daniel Castillo, or even Rick Howard (unless you want to put the sins of people he's associated with on him). At the end of the day, like 90% of people who get put on a pedestal as a teenager with some level of fame are likely to have incidents where they come across as an asshole, or in some cases are just permanent assholes. It seems JT has carried this into his 40's if this story is accurate, which is shitty.

Definitely agree with the sentiments stated above. These allegations aside, just because someone is/was a wild partier doesn’t mean they aren’t a good person or can’t be trusted.

TMZ got nothing on Slap. This forum is supposed to be about skateboarding, and every other week there is a new more crazy story then the last one. Some with clear evidence, other stories where people's careers ends or reputations are for ever destroyed with out any proof.

I am not commenting on this particular story since I don't know what's true. It just amazes me that there is a crazy story about so and so so often. Shit is fucked!

Why would Lizard make an Instagram story poll for this situation?
I mean, other than the fact that insecure people can't do anything without putting it on Instagram for validation.

I guess that was rhetorical.

Being an annoying dick might not make you a decent person but thats not like being a wife beater

Obviously not the same, Karl’s a great human being. I’m honestly not sure how his name got into this shit thread anyway.

More just saying nobody’s perfect and don’t believe it if you think they are.
