ha!  not really dude.  i used to just have a stack of boards and some random shit about.
now, i try to make my spot look somewhat nice.  its not really the dope setup or anything but it works for me.
my ghetto living room shop...

[close]

throw a sneaker rack in there with some SB's nd you got yourself a modern day botique skateshop

maybe one day but its hard to open shoe accounts when you have a real store, so i could only imagine how difficult it would be for me and my apt shop....they'd probably just laugh at me.   

Need a manager? Ash tray on the coffee table means I can smoke cigs and grip boards at the same time. Your shop does look like a boutique style shop. I'd work there. I'll help you get some shoe/clothing accounts.

sure if you want to work for free!  and no cigarette smoking in my house, the ashtray is for weed only.         
hopefully i can find a studio apt around my hood for around $1K, i'm not trying to get a retail location for $6K and break myself to make my landlord rich you know.  thats about all i'm willing to spend on rent given my pricing, then i'll look into carrying some clothes and shoes.

Who does Clyde even skate for? Or is he "retired?" Maybe thats why hes dick riding.

[close]

well yeah.. he is retired, i don't know why you'd put that in quotes but anyway he did ride for two of the best companies ever, do one of the best 360 flips ever and the second best fs heelflip ever.

Thats the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Your OPINION is that he rode for two of the best companies ever...and that he did one of the best 360 flips ever. Theres LITERALLY 1,000's of kids out there that throw down amazing 3 flips daily. They could all be considered "THE BEST"

Youre an ignorant bastard for making such bullshit claims. and the second best fs heel? Give me a fucking break, you can't classify a trick someone does as the best ever. Theres always gonna be the next person throwing down harder, bigger, and faster.

If he did the best this and that, then it would be a general concensus that it was the best. Shane Cross' nosegrind el toro. The best ever because nobody else did it first try...Clyde hasen't done shit for the skateboard community other than back one of the worst people ever to grace the industry.

Think before you spit out bullshit next time buddy...

[killing time]

if you don't like this part, you should never set foot on a skateboard again.

you gotta admit, that front heel was potent

Yeah, I don't care about skateboard industry politics or whatever people allege about your business pratices or team managing or whatever they bitch to you on here about. I just like the idea of you opening up some Sonics around here.
And like someone commented later on, you can use the cooking oil to power a fleet of biodiesel touring vehicles so the Mystery team can travel around and solve actual mysteries. Like what if there's some poor guy who owns an amusement park, but no goes there because everyone thinks it haunted? Well how about the mystery team shows up and figures out that the hauntings are reallybeing perpetrated by some greedy land owner trying to drive the amusement park out of business so he can build more Target stores and Starbucks on the land?

Its by far the weakest part in that section.
Dill is at his peak, Gino could shit blood on my face and I would enjoy watching it, Marcus, shit, Marcus is sick. When I think of Clyde being whack, I think of the bullshit he put out in this part. Fakie this, fakie that, ewww. Trilogy is sick,and Clyde was LUCKY he had enough PERSONALITY for them to include him on the team as the cute little mascot.

[eat.shit]

That frontheel in that part looked like shit, so I guess I shouldn't be riding a skateboard.

I'll say this: while those 1000's of kids are busting out nice tre flips daily, you have to put in to context when Clyde threw his down. Most of those kids were wearing diapers.

[killing time]

who the fuck cares of clyde singleton had good tricks or not, the dude is a fucking kook.  it dosnt matter who you are, if your moron then your a moron.  look at bastien, look at sheckler.  people hate those guys cuz they're so into them selves its disgusting.  take his OAKLEY ad he had.  didnt that make you want to puke?  its about the personality that makes a person, not his 3 bomb or his dewtour winning backside flip.  JT understands that, and thats why he came onto this board to defend himself, unlike those self claimed jocks *cough* i mean skateboarders

[Absurdicon Delta]

*cough* stop posting

[eat.shit]

I don't give a fuck when Clyde did his trick? He isn't any more O.G. than anyone else? There was someone before him, and there will be someone after him. Theres VERY few who can lay claim to being the first. And the only thing Clyde can lay claim to being the first at, is sucking Shecklers dick.

Fuck people who claim to be better than others because they've been around longer. Respect is hard to come by, and it sure as hell isn't gonna be given by me, just because your parents fucked first.

[ChildoftheGhetto]

I don't even think clyde "likes" sheckler, he just pointed out some reasons why you guys hate on him. You guys are just angry at him, for not harboring the same hatred you guys have for him.

[skate_bored]

Maybe Clyde's trying to make a 'power' move to be Sheckles manager.

thinking of this actually happening reminds me of when i was 10 and watched WWF.

[faux cough]

3:01 and 4:14 = 2 best fs heels ever.  just sayin...

Say that to his face and I promise Clyde would smack dat azz up. Stupid!

You cannot diss. How old are you anyway? Fuck kids today keep getting dumber.

You mean "I was wearing diapers."  He's not Jason Lee.

And I think the point still remains that for Clyde Singletrick to call somebody out for having a limitted trick selection is like a pornstar calling somebody a slut.

alot of assumption in there gipper. i thought teachers knew that assuming makes an "ass of u and me."
people can do frontside heels or any other trick without your voice of god like judgment.
sorry man. this is skateboarding. not your classroom.

[Rusty Champignon]

I think frontside heels can be fucking sick sometimes i.e. Dustin Dollin's

What am I assuming? You didn't even quote what I said. You probably are trying to attack my opinion, which is that frontside heelflips are stupid and ugly. That is my opinion, not a fact. I am not assuming that my opinion is that frontside heelflips are ugly as all hell, I know my opinion is that frontside heelflips are ugly as all hell. And thank you for saying I have a strong writing voice. Good writing shouldn't include crap like "I think" or "in my opinion." We all know it is what you think, or that it is your opinion, only morons would assume somebody else thought something you wrote, or that a judgment you have is not an opinion you have.
 People can do whatever tricks they want, but if they are pro, being paid to do tricks for the entertainmment of the skateboard buying public, then a skaters trick selection is totally fair game.
People can do pressure flips, one footed 1080 ground spins, willy grinds, or whatever cheesy ass trick they want, but they better be prepared to face the fact that a lot of people are going to think that trick is lame. Front heels are cheesy.

I Loooooooooooooooooooooooove chicks with fro's. Biggest bonerfest ever.

[H8R part 4]

i think, in my opinion, what The Gipper is trying to say is he can't do heelflips. 

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

i think, in my opinion, what The Gipper is trying to say is he can't do heelflips. 

In my opinion, it is possible for me to do heelflips. I thought that heelflips weren't very fun, and in my opinion were an ugly trick. Now I limit it to mostly switch heel variations. I think I wish I could do backside heels, but alas, in my opinion I can't do them anymore. I'm sure if you gave me about a half hour I could relearn proper heelflips and front heels, but that would be a wasted half hour, in my opinion.

Its funny how Jamie usually comes on and smoothes out any supposed beefs with other skaters he has. When people talked shit on Sheckler on here for talking bad on Jamie he said they talked, and that he considers Ryan a friend now. He hasn't said a fucking word to tell people to take it easy on Clyde, or that they have worked shit out.

[jrock]

clyde hasn't even responded on his own blog.  i figured he would have gone off by now, but he has stayed oddly silent...

[Mouth]

Why should any of these dudes feel the need to explain themselves to us?

It would only add fuel to the fire anyway.
