I hope Mark Suiciu puts out a whole Philly part soundtracked by Freeway or Young Gunz.

that dude has never heard a state prop song in his life

i'm not sure it's even possible for suciu to listen to a rap song, like if you tried to play one for him it would turn to white noise by being in his presence

Legitimately cackling at this.

Re: the Levi's discussion I completely missed, the 501 and 505 are the same exact cut, the only difference is that 501s have a button fly and 505s have a zip fly.  Also, they do periodically change the cut of 501/505s for seemingly no reason, and if you want a roomier 501 the '93 Straight is my preference.  I have somewhat burly legs and once broken in they fit like a pair of pants that aren't too snug or too loose anywhere, they just kind of go with the line of your leg and it looks like absolute classic straight leg jeans shit.

Still probably never going to quit skating in Carhartt double front workpants though.

I have nothing to add here, solid agreement

[mj23]

levi's quality control is all over the place and so is their manufacturing. like literally all over the place in terms of having factories in like 15 different countries. go to your favorite local department store and try on 10 pairs of the "same" cut/size/color-- they will all fit differently. and yeah, they change from season to season as well.

Shit. should have said Philly female rappers like Eve or Charli Baltimore. I'm sure mark did the statistics and realized he hasn't been skating to enough women. He can move them to the fore. Do some spinny shit down a mini rail at Ninth and Poplar to Let Me Blow Your Mind. Something like that.

[manysnakes]

Looking forward to more y2k numetal horseshit paired with mediocre skating

I am already tired of this

Next trend, Columbia shoes as skateboard shoes

Current issue of thrasher actually has some of this. Someone went to Alaska and got photos in his trail running gear. I can’t remember who it was but maybe someone else does?

Ryan Lay?

Back to the Levi's talk - I've been on a 505 kick for the last few years, but just bought a few more pairs back in like October including a green canvas feeling pair. I've been pretty much solely wearing them when skating lately aside from maybe dickies here and there. Also as said before 505s and 501s are the same fit only difference is a zipper fly.

I buy them a size or two bigger than I'd usually buy and they're perfect, but I've been eating pretty good lately so I guess I'm wearing close to my regular size now. Great fit though. Not too baggy, not too slim. Very normal looking pants so I don't feel ridiculous.

Edit: here's me skating in 505s in the snow back in February

not so much a trend but a prediction:  Clive Dixon will win SOTY in 2022.

[Masshole]

2022 - the resurgence of freestyle, all parks will become just flat slabs of concrete.

[SneakySecrets]

No longer content with the classic all-black skater-waiters, trendy skaters will clamor for Vantablack shoes.



Someone on slap will make a witty reference about the shoes being so black that they could be “none more black”.

Recently saw some middle school kids wear the baggiest pants ever- Millers Outpost style...I think things will start slimming back to a "normal fit"

Full on ska-offspring-smashmouth-guy fieri-ish outfits worn non ironically.

To match the 90s comeback sls etc will only pay the same prize money that was on offer in the 90s. Rather than build courses they will just make low hubbas and rails on pre existing stair sets and have a completely flavorless version of bust or bail.
