Trendwatch 2023

[WavyDavy]

instagram skate edits are going become more cringy

Deepfried insta edits
Deep faked tricks if it wasn't a make, so some insta/TikTok skater will release a part with fake walleberg tricks

Companies will recycle wood for decks

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

if pro skaters don't start embracing vintage watches in 2023, they never will...

TikTok skate edits = 🤢 🤮

Instagram skate edits = as long as they aren’t using trap or bad musics, that goes in my book.

Agreed. The worst of the tik tok shit is when the female robot voice says "5 easy tricks to learn to make you look like a good skater: 1.,2.,3.,4.,5.. while the dude in the video's pointing at shit lol.

[JamesFardy]

worse skating, but like the sickest worse skating

Victory pushes after every single trick in a part

Victory pushes after every single trick in a part

Nyjahs opening line is a trend starter. It's gonna be victory push after every trick including all tricks in lines

[Sizzle]

Big pants are never gonna fully go away, they’re gonna be like cords where they might wane in popularity but most skaters will keep at least one pair in rotation. They’re just too practical to get jettisoned like skinny jeans

Fast ollies from your landing position and quirky footlifts will be for olympians. Artists will ride straight and clean.

Not flipping into grinds, but flatground tricks landed at the last possible millisecond before a slappy.

Haha.  I agree, this is for sure coming en masse

That would be low key sick.

Oshkosh makes a skate pant.

[offkilter]

Every thread will turn into a hardcore-appreciation thread and the same 10 people will talk about their nostalgic memories seeing the band “Razor Dust Pancake”

[Giftedly Hater’d]

Only the demo and the comp tracks though.

Ben kadiw releases part of just him attacking pedestrians with his skateboard

Nyjah starts new skate mag called Chaos

Jim Greco releases 30 minute film of him getting head from Chlo Sevigny

More seriously:

More red button ups and black shoe fits - people gunna dip in that dullin/ early baker rocker vibes heavy this next year I think -

A transition from the pretty boy pastel trend to more Johnny cash bad boy type trend - already see it happenin ( I.e less clips of smoking weed with bright puffy jackets with friends and more clips of cigarettes and looking unhappy alone )

People are still gonna dump footage in November/December, but Thrasher isn't going to give SOTY to whoever released 28 minutes of skating. After this year, there's going to be some kind of demonstration of their independence and they'll give it to someone who did a part in May and a part in October or something.

No more skaters/companies releasing parts by themselves new thrasher mandate all footage comes out the same month as the magazine. If it wasn't part of an interview or article it doesn't exist to them
