Yuto's ride away hunch looks so forced to me. Nothing else really springs to mind which would bother me in the same way.

I remember wondering about that watching his parts last year, it's like once he lands a trick he just deactivates.

Amazing tricks and trick selection, but when Forrest does the freeze, or rail grab ride away, it really takes away from his footage.

I love Heitor style, but I think he fakes a bit.

Who do you got?

Just watched that Es edit and Thiago Lima's style feels very forced and fake.  Anyone else think this? Maybe it's natural for him, but seems a little ridiculous to me.

Tangent, but my thought process when I saw the description on that video:

1. Huh they spelled Tiago wrong.
2. Wait Tiago isn't on éS.
3. How the fuck is there a guy with that name who skates kind of similar but obviously not as good.
4. Imagine trying to make it in skateboarding right now and your name is something like Grant Tailer/Ishod Whear.
5. Fuck

But yeah I agree.

My thoughts exactly. I was thinking, "Well I guess no more NB 1010's for me." Then I looked again

Yes, it is, so fucking fake. I thought the same at 2 seconds of footy, the way he moves the arms.. and the pushing... thats a warning point for Es. .

I feel kind of bad saying it (seems like a very nice man), but Chris Pulman.  Arm motions seemed to have become extremely exaggerated in old age. Unpardonable.


[close]
Not the first time I’ve heard someone say this

And I will admit once I heard it and revisited his footage I could understand what people were talking about

But here’s the thing— Pullman is like 40+ years old, plus tall and lanky. He does what he can to keep his arms in check. People with long ass arms battle this and end up using their arms for balance, and hopefully they can massage the flailing into something somewhat graceful. Hell, even Dylan kinda did it with his “vampire” pose (see Kyle Beachy’s essay on the topic). Of course people accuse Dylan of having fake style as well, but I think when you can start to identify a whole little tendency among lanky skaters it stops being “fake” style and starts being something else. AO does it a little bit (less, but it’s still there), and I’m sure we can find others if we look as well.

I think it's more about his hips and legs than his arms. Is he English or Welsh? If English he probably has to put in extra effort just to his body isnt florpazorpin all over the shop. Don't know what's in the water but no skater from England has ever had a body where the upper and lower work together.

Chris is Welsh. I get that his landing pose could be seen to be a bit contrived but he's pretty much done it since at least the early 90s, plus I think it actually looks good rather than trying too hard. Also, as stated he's a pretty big dude for a pro skater and also skates fast as fuck so gotta get those arms going to keep yourself steady when you're not 5'6 like a lot of pros.

Shane Heyl’s exaggerated roll up carves and squatting prior to ledge tricks is so dumb.

He is naturally goofy as hell so it does not count as "fake style"
