When someone complains about the're spot / park but doesent want to go street skate, when you're filming someone at a spot with pedestrians and they freak out  causing everyone to think skaters are mentally ill people , skaters that hate to be filmed under the argument of not wanting to be judged by others on the internet.

also people that double flip in games

perverted super otaku!

definitely that kid/his parents that are apparently trying to sue biebel over his park, that takes the cake. those kinds of people are the fucking worst.
[close]

can you please elaborate a little on this, sounds interesting.

did some kids try get into biebel's park or something
[close]

So Biebel and a few other people have a warehouse skatepark thats a few blocks away from North Hollywood skatepark. 

For the most part you could just go there and skate if the door was open which it pretty much always was. 

Then I guess the kid broke his arm, there was some subsequent legal action

Public access to the park has been pretty much over since.
[close]

A similar situation happened here in Portugal. Some random kid that barely skated fell in the park and broke an arm. Parents were some kind of advocates and sued the city. Next month they demolished the park... That was 5 years ago.

but the last time i was there some local kids told me it got torn down since some kid got hurt and his parents sued. same place?

POVOA! that was the name thanks. i saw some guy rip outside a skateshop there too. he was skating a fountain with skate stoppers all around it. like different length metal bars forming a wave pattern.
so hows the skate scene in Povoa now? completely dead?

from what ive seen the skate scene in portugal seem pretty shitty honestly. ive witnessed a handful skatepark fights the times ive been there. i met some cool skaters but the rest were assholes. long time ago tho. i also remember skating a really fun tranny park in ponte de lima. it had long vert wall i think. thats still there right?

The skaters that believe in weird conspiracies.  I'm looking at you Matt Beach night time dinosaur hunter.

Skaters that ramble and are inarticulate.  The Jake Johnsons and Ocean Howells are a rare breed.
Sorry that that's personally embaressing to you. Me? I'm probably both 1 and 2. Couldn't tell you if they're "conspiracies" and if they are if they're weird though.

Skate scene in Portugal is strange... In the small citys, like mine, we are always suportive and try to help each others, but then in bigger citys i see lots of small groups were people dont talk to each other and lots of times they look at us, strangers, like some kind of posers when they dont know us at all. I dont know. I dont like that vibe at all. I grew up in a city with 2 other skaters. I always was nice to strangers because they dont come that often. Everyone is welcome to skate with me, except if its some person ahaha...
Ponte de Lima park is sketchy as shit. I simply cant skate that... but the scene there is awesome. The local shop "korner skateshop" is super suportive to everyone that go there and they have lots of ripping little kids skating the park! A diferent scene since tranny is not a big thing in Portugal.

I don't understand this. How could Marc Johnson, Kenny Anderson, Mike Carroll, etc. embarass you?

Marc Johnson? Are you kidding? Every time he opens his mouth it's embarassing. 
Mike Carroll and Kenny Anderson are just boring. It's more to do with Girl and Chocolate itself.  Their affiliation makes them guilty by association.

The majority of interviews with pro skateboarders are embarrassing to read, they often don't say anything real about what their asked about and they are usually boring ass answers. For instance, it's always "yeah he's sick, I want to see everyone's part, they are both good". Now, I'm not looking for a fucking scandal every time I open an interview but (nearly) every pro seems shit scared of offending anyone if they speak their mind. There would be nothing wrong with someone voicing their opinion of not liking someone's skating or being annoyed that someone else did the same trick as them and released it before them. I'm aware there are some great and honest interviews etc but mostly, they are stale, bland and lack what feels like real personality.

Ha, I suppose I can take your point seriously but why quote my unrelated post in yours?
I'm going to argue that Placebo owes their entire career to a Canadian dude's skate video part. Appleyard should be getting royalties for this shit.

idk, I've ridden motorbikes since I was four so that's even before I started skating.
Can't really hate on people for getting into bikes, they've kinda gone hand in hand/ been part of the culture for a long time now

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

Lutzka and his fedora

Berra for sure - he's not that funny

P Rod talking about dedication, practise, motivation etc...

Chris Cole and the obscene monster endorsement

Ben Raermers - that guy is dumb as fuck

Jim Greco and his attempt to compete with the Berrics

The whole plan B team during the montages and non skating sections
except Joslin - when he bit is lip and spat during his intro he looked
pretty cool

[close]

Joslin is just a mad guy with a short career.

You spelt practice wrong. Benny boy isn't the only dumb one.

Girl is/was more jock than plan b. Their look in the 90's s one of the all time lows for skate styles. They looked like fratboy date rapists and acted like it too.

Yeah dude seriously I mean all his stuff in Shackle Me Not, Hokus Pokus, Not The New H-Street Video, Questionable, Virtual Reality, Finally, Goldfish, Paco, Mouse, Penal Code, Chocolate Tour, Modus, Chomp, Yeah Right,  Hot Chocolate, Cheese and Crackers, all the tour videos, Fully Flared, Pretty Sweet and all that other horseshit he's put out over his short and uneventful career is totally not inspiring at all and I could see how someone like you would not be psyched and want to go skate after watching any one of those parts. I can totally see that because you are a fucking person that hasn't been skating very long and your opinion sucks.
