Gotta love these soft Cali Bois and their false equivalencies. So predictable, they shook.

Just because you keep throwing out weak ass insults doesn't mean you win. I thought the east coast's biggest export was shit talking and bad attitudes.

Nate Broussard ruled and his static 3 part was definitely dope when he still skated. Just my opinion though

To be clear, "Nate Broussard ruled and his Static 3 part was definitely dope" is an immensely popular opinion.

Ok Mr. Manualgrind

i have since partially redacted my opinion after discussing it with my colleagues. pinched 5-0s are allright. i remain firm that non-pinched scraping 5-0's are disgusting & scraping nosegrinds just look like you're trying to shovel shitty wax off the ledge which rollerbladers left behind

I always had a strict no touch/manual rules for nosegrind 5-0s. For some reason (maybe my influence but I doubt it) all my skate friends over the years always were the same. We'd even pump grinds along coping. A couple years ago I realised it really doesn't matter and noticed many great pros only scrape grind. Now I think it's a right technique for the right spot type scenario

Scraped nose manuals for the duration of the trick are good and hard.

The more I read about it, the more it seems like skateboarding in the 90's actually really sucked and the overt nostalgia for it kinda weirds me out.

I also have lived on both coasts and they both differ immensely the farther north or south you go. But people from the east coast can skate anything because of the lack of decent parks everywhere and amount of crust and bad weather. Doesn’t quite work like that the other way around. Even the PNW has pretty decent temps all year compared to the ANE

Real is one of the worst brands in skating in terms of board art and identity. They have incredible talent and get a huge pass because of their legends, but there isn’t much that actually ties their team together. I would go as far as saying I’d rather see Ishod’s name on a Primitive Dragonballz deck than some of the heinous shit Real puts out AND he would actually fit the team better.

I've never seen Tyshawn Jones do any manual tricks, to my recollection. But he can probably do some.

Daewon is smarter than you because he doesn’t skate handrails and is still better than everyone today.

Real’s one offs’ art are usually superb. Their shapes are also god dick tier.

This exactly. Yeah Real has great shapes and all, but I prefer to ride FA/Hockey and my girlfriend prefers to ride me. Not everyone wants the god dick.

What did JV do that no one else did in that debacle? By that logic, chico, de la, gx and all his minions should all be locked up too.

I get that the security guard's life is ruined, but mistakes happen and the crime should fit the punishment. If he had just called the police instead of being a super hero, he wouldn't be where he is today either.
 In the US, if you swung at me, I dodged and fell and hit my head the same way he did you'd be in the same position as Jesse. A little compassion and understanding things aren't black and white go a long way toward living a better, less outraged life.
