Beatrice Domond pro for FA very soon

[backfliptofiftyfifty]

Beatrice doesn’t have image or talent. Say what you will about the reputation of her three major sponsors, but FA, Vans and Supreme have much more talented skaters that may have the same non-skating interests (ie tyshawn j modeling) but back up those extra curricular interests with major skill. Beatrice doesn’t present well in any of these companies’ non- skating advertising or promotional materials and she def. doesn’t exude anything but average skill as a skater. It’s weird that any of these companies sponsor her in the first place. She doesn’t seem to really vibe with anyone on these teams either. I don’t really see b roll of her in the Supreme videos like fist bumping Rowan Zorilla or anything- most of her teammates don’t seem to really like her either. They might even resent her. How could Louie L stand to get paid the same as someone who can barely kickflip down three low stairs? For anyone saying she’s nice…her interviews come off as someone who grew up with very ‘new age’ parents (stupid horoscope garbage) and was told they were the greatest child that ever lived and that she could be president etc. It’s just a sad combo of heads of businesses who want a female skater on the team at any cost and that desire causing a mediocre skater to think they are way better than they really are thus feeding their already inflated ego.

Go eat at a restaurant where the chef has never cooked a full meal, but got to open a restaurant because they’re nice and they seem excited by the opportunity.

You can come up with a better analogy than that.

Haha I saw an ad for a cooking show at the time

Mikey Alfred is the name I’ve been searching for who this reminds me a lot of, back when he was starting out and everyone in the industry was praising his vision, etc, but most people knew better

Damn, new found respect for people making these colourways for skate shoes... Seriously though, how many people does it take to ‘design’ a colourway of an existing shoe, colour + material, am I being extremely naive here? Insole design?

I don’t mean to diminish any footwear designers here, I’m genuinely interested

[close]

I watched a dude use Sole Tech's software to whip up a new colorway, materials and all, for some eS hiking shoes in less than 5 minutes. The Sole Tech dudes we were with were actually impressed with it and said they'd make him a sample and send it to him. Not sure if it always happens that fast but it did that time.

Damn 5 minutes is pretty good going considering I imagine Sole Tech to be designing shoes on a box computer running on windows 96 that you have to hit every time it freezes.

egyptian pharaos didnt have west african ancestors either
(check the insole of her shoe)

the interview made everything so much worse
she totally seems like a person believing astrology bullshit
she thinks she works harder than anyone lmaooo you are a lucky skateboarder earning money with kickflips and 0 video parts or contest appearences. this dumb idiot thinks she works more than a construction worker or a person workinhg in health care

[close]

Well the average construction worker spends 90% of his day sitting on his ass complaining about liberals stealing the 2020 election so yeah she kinda does work harder than those bozos.

[close]

She works harder than construction workers?

Have you ever worked an actual job? Nevermind construction which is back breaking horrible labour.

[close]

Not everything is about physical labor in this world. Construction workers get to go home after work and just forget about their work - Beatrice never stops working. Constant mental labor. She's doing incredible work for the poc community and that needs to be recognized. There are a million guys who can hammer in a nail but not many young women out there courageous enough to stand up and be recognized for their effort like Beatrice.

I'm currently having a small group of very noisy construction workers remodel one of my tenant's upstairs bathrooms so forgive me if I'm a bit peeved about them right now.

Absolute L take, time to focus your account bozo.

Your basic warner ladder should be fine. Probably an 8 footer.

she sucks at skateboarding, and none of this discourse would be taking place if she was good, but the echo chamber in here is something else. so much sick stuff in skating, why is everyone is so hung up on this? and why are people so confused by why she is backed? vans sponsor a guy with literally no legs. he doesn't even wear the shoes!

I really hope you're not implying that Beatrice is as good as a guy with no legs...

The blue is nice and medium sturdy green looks sick but handles less weight and the orange has a higher weight capacity

An aluminum folding multi-position ladder, accordion-style with the 6 locking hinges, is quite versatile. Jack of all trades, master of none.

In 2023 the whackest thing in skateboarding aren't non core brands (Asics put out a great video)
It's non core skatepros (Beatrice has never put out a great video)

We also had Nico hiraga aka nicotheduffer with a ABD thrasher cover. Skateboard Companies are really doing cool things right now

Beatrice pretending to be a landlord is the best thing that ever happened in Slap.

Although they aren't scaled correctly that toebox on the left looks narrower, especially where my small toe would be?

I do like the puff around the ankle.

he's selling the shit out of some Vans shirts, though

[peacepappies]

has vans made any original, goodlooking skateshoes in the last of couple of years? Sincere questions, haven't been following them tbh.

Kinda dig this beatrice colorway, don't care about skate skills. Crob has been equivalent level for 25 years.
