Bakers image is based on Satan loving bums with alcoholic problems while abusing drugs.
Bums don't skate like they do buddy. You're a bum. Also, partying after a long ass day of demos and signings shouldn't be frowned upon if they're capable of doing it again the next day. Kids like you are just too thick to use any discretion when watching this footage.
As for the Greco thing, please show me footage of him "abusing" substances since Baker 3. Mouthing off to civilians doesn't count. Dude's a supposed ex junkie, of course he still looks fucked up. Yet he runs companies and gets hammers. Look at the big picture instead of being a bunch of Mrs. Lovejoys.
Thats why I said "image". They do try to look like Alcoholic bums, thats not about how they skate, thats about the message they are sending.
Most of them have already realize that drugs and alcohol abuse were destroying their lifes and did quit, still they keep promoting the careless lifestyle cause they know it sells better.
My point is, they know drug and alcool abuse can ruin kids lifes, but they choose not to care. It would be bad for business havin Reynolds or Greco preaching about their bad experiences at each demo...
I'm not a kid, I'm 26, have been watching this guys for many years and have seen at least 20 different trends come and go in skateboarding.
You are probably a kid considering your huge amount of posts, that means lots of free time.
