yeah pj is the only non-robot left.

[close]

HAHA pj's not a robot because he's from the east coast, and somehow torey is because he's from california. i swear people on here are idiots.

yeah that was a stupid one i admit,torey isn't a robot,only prod and shane are.
but i do love robots i'm a huge prod fan since day one.i don't get the east west coast thing you're talking about but whatever pj's and prod are my favorites for the win.

when i don't think about it too much, i tend to implicitly believe that we actually have ronald reagan('s ghost) arguing with oj simpson about skate tricks on this board.

[The Ghost of Lenny Kirk]

sean malto is definitely a robot, he does the same 5 tricks at every contest and it gets pretty boring to watch. same with torey pudwills ledge dance, its still pretty craze but at the rate he's going hes gonna burn me out on it.

[carbonite]

kinda wish i was a robot.  lock on rail...destroy rail...seek new target...beep.

^affirmative

two terrible people that only slap could bring together.  that's not really fair.  reagan was one of the worst people in history.  the juice is completely out of his league.

impossibles are incredibly wack.  the argument that the only reason someone doesn't like a trick is because they can't do it is brain numbingly stupid.  templeton is the only person i ever wanna see do an impossible, but i'd much rather see any of the other 5 tricks he has on lock.

definitely the foot wrap, not the angle, that makes an impossible

[chronic taco]

Just wondering is that dude Cotg Handicapped? Or just a piece of shit?

dylan reider over a bench is now o.k. too....I do them all the time but hate seeing other people do them....i was glad to see david gonzalez get stomped....

any trick requires a certain bit practice to execute, but a trick like a front shuv is easier to make look good than an ollie impossible. ollie impossibles are about as easy to learn as front shuvs, maybe slightly harder, but not as many people can make them look good.  also keeping in mind the ollie part helps so much.

obviously there is not linear level of difficulty for skateboarding trick and it is different for everyone, but in my experience observing friends and skaters in general, especially if you have the motion of 3 flips down moderately well, ollie impossibles are fairly easy.  myself and pretty much all my friends, who have taken the time to try the trick, found them to be much easier than expected, especially after realizing how important it is to focus on the ollie part

[Beeda Weeda]

I wish skateboarding was more competitive, we should start divisions, like east and west, and have groups of skaters reppin' their cities, with uniforms, we are already half way there, shit would be soo sick, we'd get competitive, have divisional matches, play offs, shit talk.....I can jus tsee it now, and maybe one day, if we are lucky, skateboards would be in the olympics.

Pro skater X, says to his wife "sorry honey, we gotta move to San Diego" I got traded over there cause they saw value in my switch hardflids, I'm getting the veterans minimum on my contract though

I still can't do impossibles.  I think I should really try to learn so I can do much more "Fucking Around" when i skate.

[ChildoftheGhetto]

tre flips and impossibles are totally different. I don't know what in the hell that guy is talking about

[ice nine]

So the finals are being played this weekend? And shown? Or wut

[tangar]

i hope t-puds wins so there will be another 10 pages added to this thread of people crying about his arms. fuckin babies.

[Beeda Weeda]

I have been doin 360 flips for like 14 years, and I have never done  a legit impossible, i don't understand how they work.

[BriDen]

People who think tre flips are impossibles are similar are probably doing 360 shuvs and just keeping their toe on the board.

[Beeda Weeda]

in that case, i dont think I have ever done an impossible. I'm ok with it though.

YOU DON'T SKATE. YOUR OPINION DOESN'T COUNT. Also, if you ever did skate, you obviously never could do 360 flips or impossibles, meaning your opinion doubly doesn't count. Although the trick looks far different, both require a  very similar scoop with the back foot, and a more prolonged float before the catch, it also comes around in a similar way

[ChildoftheGhetto]

I can do both, and they aren't similar at all. Impossibles are closer to pressure flips.

[evil swine]

Impossible wraps around your back foot.  Nollie Impossibles = shin destroyer.
