I've just noticed that Bryce Kanights has a tendency to be sarcastic towards Sheckler and Shaun White. Now, I hate those two skaters as much as the next guy, but if skatedaily is supposed to be a credible source of news, Kanights should stay the hell away from airing his personal opinion on these two skaters.
Examples:
Spin to Win
For the third time in a row, snowboarding phenom, Shaun White took to the air to spin and rise above the crop of skateboarding’s best vert skaters at the Dew Tour in Portland. After his second run Snow White emerged once again as “the guy to beat.” Yeah, Shaun is that good, especially when technical lip tricks and switch skills are no longer scored highly as lofty (and stinkbug) rodeo rotations. We’re not complaining, we’re just making an observation that The Flying Tomato has ushered in another paradigm of progression on the towering Skatelite battlefield…it’s called “fly high, or die grinding.”

Lutzka Upsets Sheckler
The Dew Tour Skate Park Finals ended with a big upset this afternoon. With cameras aimed from all angles toward media favorite Ryan Sheckler during the finals, the golden child just couldn’t keep his feet on the grip tape and missed a few too many tricks. Brought to tears prior to podium time, Ryan’s life is in fact a true show of reality. Sometimes you win…sometimes you just skate like everyone else.

Bryce: Do you have any comments to this, because it just makes you come off as a jaded old man, and does the, normally pretty good, site no justice.
