There isn't anything at all lame about this clip aside from a typo. It's just an insta clip of a day out. Its more atrocious that someone sees this as a "crailtap is so wack now" kind of thing. Stoops man.

People that don't get why some skaters would be upset about the caption, search the hashtag saturdays are for the boys.


The only thing that bothered me was no one smacked Maltos butt when he made that great jump shot

Why are people saying it was good with spike.  Crail never had a grasp on culture.   What I always hated was the 'humor' and dorkiness that they've always run.  Fuck off.     Can you imagine if girl just ran some serious ads\edits no self deprecating laugh along bullshit ruining everything.

it really is insane how out of touch they are and even more, how they can try so hard and fail so miserably. at this point crail is like a ex that you just really want to see do well.

"Saturday's" is possessive

pluralize weekdays correctly 2k18

It's like they do this all the time like a group of friends..

i have to admit that while watching this I imagined a group text that read:
"the short answer is yes, you have to be there"

And people wonder why crailtap is a sinking ship

it's a shit post anyway, didn't really expect it to take off. I did intentionally write tumultuous as a joke because they are acting like a bunch of frenzied idiots in the clip.

compare that to the genuinely awesome vibes in super champion funzone or their old tour clips and that instagram ad is complete bummer

I looked it up and saw some pretty adorable puppies, so I guess I understand why folks would be upset.

Not really into the basketball but it’s still cool, good tricks, adults having fun. I like.

the old crailtap site with the ringer and daily randoms were ahead of the curve by 10 years.  it was brilliant, so were the little tour nuggets like I'm Ok, Euro Ok, Yes WeCanada, Yanks on Planks etc.  major bummer

holy shit you're fucking punk rock as fuck. anything to do with sports is automatically misogynistic. using a lame ass joke catchphrase automatically means that Crailtap hates women. Crailtap hates women.

instagram captions are fuckin hard man, especially if you have to post skateboarding clips like 3 times a day.

I didn't say that it was misogynistic that they were playing basketball. 'Saturday's are for the boys' as a phrase is though. It echoes 'ftb', 'the boys are on', 'tits out for the boys' etc. Please tell me that these chants aren't somehow disrespectful towards women?

it 'mirrors'?
come on CCL, they said nothing of tits. 'boys' aren't inherently bad.
for what it's worth, mike carroll never beat up megan and then megan came on slap talking about carroll's old ladies pill collection and who's bad at parenting and who does cocaine.
crail could be a lot worse to women.
