Nik Stain and Beatrice do the same tricks at different speeds.

I don’t think Beatrice has ever done a back tail or a fakie manny

[herecomesaregular]

All skate shoes should be black/black/black or, at the very least, black/gum.

Colorways are the worst.

Walker Ryan is a top-five skater right now. He just can’t stop banging me over the head

[Lenny the Fatface]

Numbers would’ve lasted longer if Guy and Koston just picked between Miles or Durao and sponsored their circle of friends instead of doing the Plan B reboot of poaching a bunch of dudes. Expectations would’ve been a lot lower and they probably could’ve used the extra resources to hire an ill artist.

numbers had some good art

Corey duffel was best when he was Tim Burton Cory

Only things I could glean from that was he like old Duff and has something against Grass Valley.

Trunk boyz were actually cool, girl/chocolate made it corny because of shitty pretty sweet

[Lenny the Fatface]

Trunk Boyz problem was that the ratio of “rich kid trying hard to be street” to actual city kids was 2:3 when most skate crews can only get away with 1:5. Didn’t help that the two trust funds kids were also the two loudest.

they should have done a tour video to europe, skate some skateparks, skate some streetspots and let pstone film and edit it. would have been sick

Louie Lopez is the least interesting of that crew of him, Mason Silva, Curren Caples and Jake Anderson.

True, dude rips but is über milquetoast

[Steely Daniel]

I don't know much about any of those guys apart from their skateboarding but what's so interesting about a blonde surfer bro from Ventura California? Couldn't have a more generic personality in skateboarding.

I’m obviously talking about their skateboarding.

[Steely Daniel]

Well either way I could not give less of a fuck about that guy.

Louie is the man not for gnarly tricks or style. Dude changed his whole style and trick selection as a proof that he can do what he wants. Thats the point. Others dudes quoted barely skates switch or nollie, its a bit easy go fast and gnarly when you only skates regular.

Simultaneously the best and most boring skater.

Carpet Co fans be like “yeah it’s $90 a board but it’s important to support a local landlord who makes way more money than me even without his rental properties, also you need to consider that they don’t have a team or put out footage or anything. Plus it’s all ugly as shit so it’s totally worth paying $160 for a hoodie if you think about it”

[j....soy.....]

Yeah I don’t remember too many people breaking down the social economic background of the trunk boyz….

It was expectations and the internet mad at Ty…..

Despite the quality and ideological issues most of us have with them, I think Vans look the best on a board. I wish I could wear them, but they're not my shape.

My guess is they think Cory and Elijah were the trust fund kids.   I don’t think being from Santa Monica automatically makes you rich
