I don't get how people can skate anything but straight black.  Like seeing all the pictures of pros with shake junt and grizzly.  It seems like it would be distracting. Then all the kids at the park with the crazy artistic stuff, with photos and stencils.  I just don't get it, but to each there own.  I guess it's like dudes who wear, "Gear" when they skate.  I respect guys like Duffel and Greco for their talents, but could never see throwing on a leather jacket, a bunch of jewellery, and fedora to go skate LA when its 80 degrees out

Never understood the grizzly. Its pretty wack in my opinion but what ever

Recently I saw a pic of a teenaged T-PUDZ riding in some tournament (let's say Tampa) and the little bear was there on his tape. It was shocking and it made me warm up to the brand a little... but I'm not paying a premium on sandpaper and glue just because there's a doodle on it. Ever.
I'm guilty of skating it before
I'm a fan of Mob and I feel that Grizzly is too slippery. I don't understand why people sand that shit down
Nothing I do deserves more than an iphone camera.
