2023 unpopular opinion thread

You can make a credible argument for tyshawn being the goat street skater but you guys aren’t ready for that

[Sick_McCrank_]

Instagram did to skateboahdin what Disney did to Pixar

I deleted when they asked me for money to not see ads last week. The internet turned from an enrichment to a fucking manipulative clusterfuck.

You can make all those arguments and people probably are ready but I guess you aint ready for the argument that goat is no singularity, there are a multitude of skaters in the goat realm.  Whether TJ belongs there or no can be debated. I am not interested tho sorry.

Socal is everything south of halfmoon bay.

There is no cardinal direction of central. The Half Moon Bay statement is legally correct if you cut the state in half at the mid point.

Santa Cruz heads won’t want to hear that.

If you cut it into thirds, then the Bay Area and Santa Cruz are considered central California, yet once again there is no true central direction, and neither of those areas would be any to be considered central California.

So it is. SoCal power from Half Moon Bay down.

I’m not sure if this is unpopular, but…

Tony Hawk should not make a musical about punk rock and skateboarding with Mark Mothersbaugh.

I don’t know if they mentioned it when he was on hawk v wolf, but Tony has mentioned it in the past.

Talking about what is and isn’t punk is a tired thing, but, I dunno, it just feels like that isn’t Tony Hawk’s story to tell.

I read that as he "should" make a documentary about it and was very confused.

He should not. No one should tbh.

I've been off for a little over three weeks, I was unaware you had to pay to remove ads now. Thank you for more motivation to stay away from that cesspool

You both make me confused.

Edit: I just found out that the earlier referred musical is really going to happen. That doesn’t really make me less confused.

Only edits containing SOTY contenders should be released between mid-November and the official announcement.  Your homie vids, tour videos, d-list parts, etc can wait.  It’s like the hometown hero showing up to a long awaited demo and snaking the pros.  Save that shit for the holidays, Jan/Feb/Mar, when everyone’s sitting at home fiending for footy.

  SOTY corrupted y'all.

I typed documentary and meant musical.

Is anyone even trying for SOTY this year? I feel like last year’s result was such a joke that no one is wasting their time anymore.

Maybe Thrasher was playing 4d chess and picked Tyshawn just so everyone would calm down with their SOTY run video dumps (that were both very entertaining but also obviously calculated and obnoxiously so).

Thrasher also asked Tyshawn to postpone his video drop till fall. He said in interview he was ready to drop it in the summer.

i think some people are predominatly into skateboarding to talk about clothing cuts and shoe sillohuettes and force themselves to attempt flatground to model their lil outfits

[mrselfdestruct]

ledge skating sucks (i cant back 50 but can do back crooks, nosegrinds and crooks) like i think a ledge in a line is cool but almost never ender worth. just not fun to watch or do.

I'm with you. I appreciate the technicality, but idk, I'm rarely stoked on a ledge spot. Last ledge move I was hyped on was Hermann Stene's mile long back smith on that ledge by the water

I do a couple grinds and slides and call it a day, I don't have the patience or desire to flip-in-flip-out.

Would like to learn BS Tails tho....
