Insane take. Why would you not want to ride that wave?
So fuckin boring seeing every homie, hanger-on, hobo, filmer, photographer, pedestrian, and passer-by forced into providing individual handjobs until completion post landing. You don’t need an entire support network to play skateboards. It’s okay to just push by yourself.
They are both choices by the editor to include that shit and both are to build narratives. The homie-splosion is to emphasis the crew-ness of it all, the runaway skating is to show what a little shred doggy he is that nothing can stop him, not even the camera frame.
If TFunk was the first part to use it, it wouldn’t be contrived, but it’s become a bit of a trope lately, sorta like the obligatory hill bomb at the end of an SF part. Fun for you to do on your board, I personally don’t need to watch it
