skater with the least skill while being sponsored

[marty mcfly]

what you guys think...except for all the YouTube/revive weirdos of course!

cata diaz comes to my mind.shes cute ,always smiling and has fun...all good!but she’s doing 3 or 4 tricks and that’s about it.

who else comes to your mind?

[Ingenting Polisen]

Its all about who's marketable, i don't think Nike SB cares about the trick variation of Cata Diaz if she has 538k followers...

Daniel Castillo or Ben Sanchez could be considered as such, but I always enjoyed their skating even though it was at best mediocre. I loved Ben Sanchez fast lines in SF with simple tricks.

Nobody cares how good you are... All that matters today is the amount of flame and praying-hand emojis people comment on your insta-edit

Not gonna name names cos I don’t wanna get called names but seeing people changing brand new shoes with brand new shoes on Instagram stories made me deactivate the app and I feel so much better.

Cata Diaz is a bad pick imo. her skill level is actually pretty good, her style has gotten a lot better you can see she has made huge progression in the past 2 years even. i dont follow her but i see enough clips of her to recognize real.

Terry Kennedy was fucking terrible on Baker 2g. worst excuse of a bluntslide on a ledge of all time, looks like last one i did. gross heelflip down the tiniest perfect 5. thats all i remember out of that part.  but he got a lot better obviously... but im honestly not sure what people saw in him as far as skating ability i think they must have just liked his personality and known it was going to be huge.

This. Alex is insanely talented. You didn't get on Girl in the mid 2000's without having a ridiculous level of natural talent. Alex's issue is he gets burnt out on shit and then just doesn't produce while hoping to whatever his next interest in. Which probably keeps him happy, but probably isn't best for a productive skate career or running a business.

Yeah simple tricks, but he mainly skated NYC that made it look cool.

Who is Beatrice Diamond? And why is she coming up so much lately

shes the girl who skates for fa/supreme, i dont get the hate tbh her style is cool and she seems like a pleasant person

[Coastal Fever]

I’m not here to talk shit on Beatrice or question her sponsorships.. the only thing that throws me off is that she was actually better at skating 5+ years ago before she got hooked up.  If you watch the old clips on her YouTube there’s some tricks well beyond 50-50 fs shoves.  As well as some fucking hilariously bad fake Dylan arm steeze, but you can’t blame a kid for emulating their idols.

[Craig Lutzka]

The popularity contest that sponsored skateboarding is today is a bigger joke than the jackass that tried to say Gailea Momalu isn’t talented.
