i think everyone who hates varial flips got trounced in games of skate by them for years because they couldn't do them. i think that's why i used to hate them.
It's not that I hate varial flips in general, I just get bummed when its T to T and someone does one to end the game...or a fakie varial flip.
dude regular or fakie varial flips are fucking easy, acting like these pro's shouldn't take ten minutes out of their day to get them down (nollie and switch too) in order to win a contest worth a few grand is stupid. boo fucking hoo, some pro didn't prepare enough, who gives a shit? eh i guess i'm going against the grain but fuck you people who really give a shit about who wins a game of skate, like it makes someone better than someone else. pull your head out of the berrics' ass, they made you care about games of skate like they're advancing skateboarding. it's like you're invested in a soap opera, like what you think matters. it already has it's puppet masters, take it easy
It's a competition like any other, no one said it makes any skater better than another, but there are still winners and losers, and the winner takes home a hefty cash prize, so why the fuck wouldn't you take it seriously? It's also fun to watch as a spectator, I never expected Luan to pull out a switch 540 on flat, but when he did it excited me, because it's entertainment, and fucking difficult, and awesome to watch.
I think you're taking it more seriously than everyone else, and you need to stop giving so much of a shit, people who watch BATB just like being entertained, and there's nothing wrong with that.
