Trendwatch 2022

[jgonzalez]

Time to speculate.

Will jeans get bigger.

What shoes will be cool. what shoes are wack. Will everyone still flood shops for dunks

Violet, Limosine, any other new board companies, wtf does it take to have a successful one

Influencers, who will still give a shit

the 15 minute two parts and scraps from the team formula, wtf is next. Will we ever get another mindfield

I think inst*gr*m is dying. Yootube sucks and has too many ads. Would be sick if board brands used whatever song they wanted again.

Old guard brands, can they adapt, should they adapt

[Hedgehog In Da Fog]

First furry focused board company will release a video called “What Yiff?”. It will have many top pros doing Chomp On This style goofery in animal suits.

Trying or putting in any effort will not be tolerated. But to keep in skateboardings tradition of being contradictory anyone with natural ability will also be hated on.

2022: rise of the smash burger.

[scary]

16 year olds are gonna move on from the whole melodi “i hate god” thing

i’m investing heavily into “skatepark junkie”+core making a comeback. bills snapback, basketball shorts, no shirt, and more early 2000s shoes.

Ig 2012 sean malto clean cut skater boy aesthetic is next

Not just yet approx 3 more years. The way it works is less than 5 years is recent. 5 to 8 is starting to dag 8 to 13 is the worst then after that the trends start to come back.15+ years old is about right for fashion. It's not exact tho each time it comes around it's blurry

[apport]

yes
i think more skaters will embrace the gorp-y look, with arc’teryx and new balance being so huge right now.
since NB hype keeps going up and up i think numeric will get more popular
dunk hype will not go away, as long as the releases are limited resellers are guaranteed to make a profit, they will always be hard to get. i would love if dunk hype went away though, i don’t even like dunks but i keep entering raffle after raffle and not winning anything.

[Slikk]

safety hands will be acceptable in clips

rise in early grab to handrail tricks for a few months
varial kickflip becomes more popular than treflip (again)

[cosmicgypsies]

will the fits get better or worse? personally i think the whole 2014 onwards rainbow camo thing was the worst trend in recent years and anything we get now will be nowhere near as bad as that

polar bigger boys

a rise in people copying suciu/tom knox/etc with the quick feet technique, already seen a bit of it

more low effort brands launching and then folding in a few months

as said earlier, the varial flip will come back in another cycle. is it ironic? is it serious? who knows.

Baggy highwater pants look ridiculous

Buying dedicated skate brand pants is regular, overpriced AND they look like shit double whammy

Who gives a shit what's "cool" wear some shoes that feel good - this applies to literally any skate gear trend

Limosine's trailer was filled with so much B roll slow mo at the beginning I just stopped watching it

Jamie Griffin and Ellis Frost doing casual Merlin Twists and double forward flips are sometimes a really nice change of pace from watching the exact same tre flip, flip into a tailslide line we see a thousand times per week

[Mr. Stinky]

straight leg pants, like levis 501 or dickies 873

This is right on cue, plus the under discussed reality is that 501s look great pretty much across the board.

[Frontside Slappy]

Pants get tighter throughout the year until denim becomes part of the epidermis

Vibrant colors come back as kids regress to the early 2010s
