Local Joe means well, but a decent portion of his videos are clickbait-y. The trick tips sometimes have interesting gems in there, but are often based on a few clips, he goes and tries the thing he talks about but actually does the trick almost the same as before, then either kinda does a few or doesn't. The 10 day tre flip series was a good example. I'm not sure why he needs a Patreon paywall for this content now. He has a few videos where he just rambles about skate news that get recommended in my feed and I can't for the life of me think of someone who would consider Local Joe an insider or having an original take.
