What the fuck is the point of a petition?! People don't get hired for jobs or go professional because of petitions.
We used to skate on a sculpture by Henry Moore. Good times.

i mean, i'd buy a nate broussard roger deck 30 times. and the whole petition thing is to let roger know that there would be enough people interested in buying his board so they could actually go ahead and make it, son.

there are currently 21,103 registered members on slap, so for the sake of argument let's assume they are 21,103 individual people. there are approximately 12.5 million skateboarders worldwide (citation), so if every one of slap's members voted on a petition they would speak for approximately 0.16% of the world's skate population (that's not 16%, 0.16 of 1%).

just something to keep in mind when you mistakenly think that what happens on this forum carries any weight whatsoever in the skateboarding industry.
i'm not the official voice of the park, i'm just a guy who skates and works there...

what does being infamous have to do with carrying weight though? maybe if 1/5th of the posters on here actually put their money where there mouths are this place would carry some weight

Slap carries plenty of weight. Arguing otherwise makes you look stupid.

I'd go as far as saying the vast majority of skateboarders in the US have never either never heard of slap or have no interest in checking this site out. it sounds stupid but its true. word of mouth still carrys more weight than the internet

We're not talking about the vast majority of skateboarders in the US. While unfortunate, we're talking about the 50-100 industry heads that decide who gets paid to ride one. And if you think those 50-100 people are wholly ignorant of Slap, you are extremely misininformed.

The slap board is the invisible hand of the skateboarding market. How else did Pete Eldridge get on Mystery?  :-*
Because you can't kill and idea, and we will not be ruled!

the visuals are also mad visual yo

It'll be about 5 years overdue but he'll go pro soon.
Done the proper way though, he's always skated solid with decent style and that's it.

Would've been pro if he stayed with Skate Mental. But Nate is a classy guy, reunited with Stacey and still hanging in there. His time will come, and now thanks to HUF and Roger on the rise, more exposure and coverage AND shortly thereafter, boards with his name on it. HUF pro models too.
