Anyone from California is inherently more wack than someone from Chicago or the east coast. Y’all need some winter in your life. Get humbled a bit.

Carpenter pants are the equivalent of Thrasher shirts for those who don’t work construction.

I was a labourer for a bit last year, am I allowed to wear carhartt and carpenter pants?

Raven's really dope, and I hope he has something else happening with Chocolate.
I liked both the parts I've seen of his, has great style and keeps it simple, kinda like GT but less legendary.

Talking about how miserable where you live is as some badge of pride is dumb as fuck. I’ve worked in the developing world and no one is ever like “oh man you don’t have character until you don’t have access to potable water and you get malaria twice a year”

That's some incredibly wack shit to say.

But both men are prematurely bald

I'd argue Reynolds has timely baldness, he had a good run

Probably not. The fashion police here are really strict. They all think I'm Steve Berra now too which is sick. It almost made me feel bummed that I'm not a rich guy in southern California with my own skate park and a history of being a pro skateboarder.

Not a comment on who is more "real" but east coast accents sound like toddlers, Cali accent sounds like a mild stroke

Question: I just took a side job to make a little extra cash, but I was hired on as a 1920s laborer & now they want me me working every day like I’m Ben Raybourn. Am I cool to wear carpenter pants, or nah?
I need that green light from you before I pull the trigger on a pair of these Supreme jawns w/ the hammer loop. They come pre splattered with a paint like substance that I can only presume is Strobeck semen, so my new boss thinks I’ve been hard at work when in reality, I’ve been eating my lunch from a tin box, up on this I-beam all day.

I wanna play you in a game of SKATE for the right to continue talking shit on me.  You think you got me?

you're standing on the shoulders of giants. and even if your ancestors didn't personally build the template, you enjoy 'Cali privilege'. so own it.

The cost of living is brutal out here, people are working multiple jobs or are putting in heavy amounts of overtime, free time is a luxury, we've been humble.

Yall need to stop assuming everyone from cali is some silver spoon orange county spoiled bro that lives down the street from famous skate spots and perfect flatground

i never used the term 'get humbled'. i said the man is enjoying the privilege of the giants who came before him. Cali privilege is real and anyone says different is spoilt.

People in Fresno, Bakersfield, Crescent City, Eureka, and El Centro are all so privileged, because CA is all one place. Nothing compared to the harsh East Coast grit of The Hamptons, Palm Beach, Cape Cod, or Martha's Vinyard because the East Coast is also all one place.

Skateboarding needs height classes. 6' skaters should not be judged the same as 5' 7" skaters.

Agreed, and especially 6'2 + skaters can just pop over stuff way easier then others

For instance I think Tyshawn's sideways table kickflip was more impressive, compared to Diego's.

Besides Tyshawn's being at a demo and I know Diego did it first; but Diego is almost 6'4. Tyshawn looks about 5'10 - 5'11  or effectively 6' with shoes, and that may be the shortest that could accomplish the feat tbh , but I'd love to be proved wrong. ( I could see Bobby or Christian Maalouf doing it too )

Looks like people from California are pretty soft and take shit personal.

Sf people are pretty cool though. They’re kinda like a Pacific Northwest cool, but can kick it in the city too.

Stereotypes and gross over generalizations are fun. Stop taking shit so serious.

Seems like a pretty common opinion around here. He was even doing the waiter arm thing for a bit. Last time I checked, he’s pulled a Baca and went full cholo.

Hot Take: Nike SB shoe design is currently at a low point when it comes to OG skate shoes. This has been a trend for the last 2-3 years and if they didn't appropriate Dunks and Blazers and made them SB we would not see a lot of swooshes on skater's feet right now.

added take:

Both the shane and the Ishod look like supra shoes with a swoosh on them.

can you elaborate? ive heard this before, but i genuinely don't understand why this opinion exists. homie likes to wear a beanie and dickies with his undershirt tucked in. i don't think dylan has a copyright on the fit

But being tall you have a lot more weight to move and leg that has to clear whatever you're popping over. If it's world record Ollie attempts maybe it would matter but just for general trash can picnic table etc I don't think it's enough to make much difference

Could his posture be any more odd?  He looks like an inter-dimensional being that just put on its human suit and flitted into existence.
When nothing in society deserves respect, we should fashion for ourselves in solitude new silent loyalties.
