ZERO STRANGE WORLD REVIEW(RANT)

[ChildoftheGhetto]

cotg its amazing slap fools go hate on u when they could easily hate on here, but they go to youtube to do it hahaha

i feel it's time to step in... i skated with COTG this past saturday and i can honestly say that he is a good skateboarder and a decent guy. skating with someone in real life and talking shit on slap are two very different things; its too easy to judge a person based on the internet persona they put on. at the end of the day, its just a wooden toy, and slap is just a series of tubes anyway

I honestly want someone to take me up on the challenge that I'll be better than them in a year if i start skating transition.

You got yourself a deal.  I will try to learn nollie heel noseslides too (I'm not kidding either...I think it's a sick trick, I just think lots of different types of skateboarding are rad).  So December 2010 you have to be able to do at least anything I can do in any transition that I can skate.

Me and drunk were talking about this a couple weeks ago.  We have a friend who skates alot like COTG and definitely has a very similar outlook on skateboarding as him.  But he's a good friend of ours, and we skate with him alot.  He's actually filmed alot of my footage recently.  I'm sure if I ever had the chance to skate with COTG I'd get along with him just fine.

Jamie Thomas pop shuved that same fountain gap back in 1994. Then keegan he does it FS 15 years later. Plus Tancowny killed that spot anyways.

[rawbertson.]

i watched it again last night and cant understand where the tony cervantes hate is coming from that guy is genius
james brockman's part was even sick i dont really like that guy seems like a kook but his footage was great
also keegan sauder's kickflip off that natural ramp thing is fucking insane i guarantee no one on this entire forum would even ollie off it. also his bs 180 at the skatepark same deal.
dane's ollie in vancouver (his ender i think) i didnt realize how fucking insane that was no one has ever even done that before its like a 12 stair at least and then a flat gap then a real skinny landing down the next 12
the intro to that video was fucking amazing too just the rawest fucking shit ever when the guy does the rail and jumps over his buddy
tom asta is fucking amazing where the hell did he come from he is fucking as good as mike mo and came out of nowhere

[Narcissus]

I am psyched to see this video and would also like to add that, based on the shit in the "post you skating" thread, a lot of dudes on here fucking rip.

Yo COTG...You down??  You're not backing out now are you?

[ChildoftheGhetto]

How are you only going to be able to have to do nollie heel noseslides, and i would have to do everything. You don't even realize that those are my warm up. I do those damn near every try. You guys really don't have a grasp on how many tricks i have.

Hey...you came up with the challenge pal.  I'm just saying I'm willing.  Plus you do have the advantage of living in Cali.  I won't be skating much at all till around the end of March.

Fuck yeah.  I'm stoked dude.  I'm gonna make a thread about it.  We can post our progress.

[S.F.A.]

man cotg, i saw a clip or two of yours on the old youtube, your good, actually better than good. but fuck dont break your arm patting your self on the back. a little bit of humble pie will go a long way. no one likes an "Im better than you" guy. just tone it down and let your skating speak for itself.

and for the video.

bought it yesterday, very worth the $12. that aussi kid is really good and i like the little itailian kid too. marrissa is a beast! she kills it! gnarliest part a girl has ever put out. but, i prefer ellissa.

brockman was sick, i have no idea how sandoval has that much good footage, its unreal. garret hill was great as usual. i could do without tom asta but the kid is undieably good. chris cole nuts as usual. i agree that a full speed clip of the 360 kickflip would be nice.

the chief still comes through, ben gilly was a let down, dude had plenty of time to film more than that. tony cervantes is usually one of my favorites this footage was a little stock for him. he's ususally more creative.

[Fongstarr.]

^^^^Dude....you are barking up the wrong tree. He doesn't even know you and I am sure he thinks you're a faggot. Haha! But no....I am messing around. I actually saw the footy last night and had no idea too. I guess I finally get all those nollie heel noseslide jokes.

I have a few honest questions for you.
First of all, Really, dude?

Second, Really?

Third, Are you fucking 12 years old? Because it's usually little fucking snot-nosed kids who tend to say juvenile stuff like this.

Fourth, Do you not realize how unbelievably shitty of a person (whether you are or not) it makes you sound like by saying stuff like this?

Fifth, Do you honestly think a bunch of people you don't know and never will meet in real life really give a flying fuck about you and your personal skate abilities so much that you have to constantly, and I mean constantly remind everyone of how much better you think you are than them?

Congratulations, you're great at a couple of aspects of skateboarding and those couple of aspects of skateboarding only, you should be happy with that and stick to what you know because in your own words, people that skate everything are lame!

Post your footage.  I want to see how good you are.

I delinquently jumped in on the COTG hate, but it's too bad this thread has turned into a complete pissing contest. uhhh the zero video?

[jeremyrandall]

My two favorite tricks....




Keegan is fucking awesome!!

those were actually the only two tricks i liked in his part, both were done really well i'll admit.

[HoneyBear]

I've pretty much seen all the parts exept james brockman and jamie tancowny.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

You know who else had a sick part? Dane Burman. That guy did some really crazy shit. And his ender definitely is nuts. Looks like its down hill at the end too, so after going super fast to clear the gap, and picking up a ton of speed ollieing into the bank, he kept speeding up. Its not like he landed and could just ride it out and slow down.
