The skatebording thread

Im down, hes never put out a bad video part. Guilty pleasure kind of skater but i dont care. Definitely some weird shit happening at his parties though.

My favorite skaters right now would be jon dickson, wes kremer, ishod wair. Skaters from the past jon allie, jamie thomas, erik ellington and heath kirchart

not a huge fan of his skating or his vids but he deserved soty last year no doubt. all the rails he did was insane, so gnarly. tyshawn is sick but I still don’t get how he won
 
Yeah worst soty decision of all time, major blow to nyjah and even louie lopez, these 2 are goats but still tyshawn has 2 soty

Louie have been so consistent for so many years and still no soty, same with tfunk.jah and tj sat on older footy that they have been collecting for the past 4 years or so. thrasher was really pushing for tj to get the award though
 
Probably the best full length I’ve seen in a while. Lotta people love to hate on Nike but they have such a stacked team:

[video]https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sqBRdEBlGN4[/video]Also probably a hot take but FA and Hockey have fallen off mad hard. Like don’t get me wrong, I love their boards and their teams go hard af, but they just aren’t what they used to be imo.

Yah Joe Campos shreds, you can definitely tell Donovan Piscipo and John Fitzgerald have been mentoring tf out of him, same gnarly style.

And good, there better be. Half that damn team never skates. If I don’t get at least a full Kevin Bradley segment I stg.

forreal, fa has my favorite team but only aidan and louie put out parts pretty much, the rest are lazy or doing other things. kinda sucks that the fa full length didn’t happen while nak and tj was on, closest thing would be blessed. but I think this full length can be really good, they have been going on trips and it even looks like even kb got some stuff, fingers crossed because Benny magliano has never made a bad video

Gonna sticker the thing up and then clear tape it, should be pretty sick and it will actually stay on the board for longer than a month. Deck and tape shipped cost me 60 bucks I think this is my new go-to screw payin extra for decals. Will post photos once I build it
 
Jake Anderson and Curren Caples are on FA now. Those two and Louie can easily carry the team and I'm really looking forward to the vid

actually so hyped

this is probably the best vid I’ve ever seen, the editing is damn near untouchable
 
I just started skating a few months ago and I like it a lot. I'm trying to learn mini ramps and quarter pipes. I love watching the second half of this video. Hopefully I will learn to rock fakie soon.

Love Spankys style and trick selection so much. Definitely one of my all time favorite skaters, especially with how his skating can blow you away without hitting big stuff or getting super tech. Dudes had a crazy long career and an inspirational comeback.

Haven’t been skating as much as I was hoping to this summer. Full time office work has been killing my motivation. This super rainy colorado summer hasn’t helped either.

Lean towards your front foot as you flick is probably the answer. Probably putting too much weight on tail and not shifting your weight to keep your momentum in line with the board’s direction. You’ve got to concentrate on keeping your hips over the board, so to speak

whenever i try to kickflip, i always end up shooting my board 3 feet away from me with very little flip. how do i fix?

Thanks, that sounds like it’ll work. I’m not putting too much time into flip tricks for now cause I just like skating whatever feels best and eventually I’ll get bored of that and really start flip tricks

Ive always been a standard black grip kinda guy but since I just bought this blank deck I wanted to spice it up somehow so I'm doing this sticker top and clear tape. Got the chromag monster and a kicker sticker on the tail (so I dont forget). The tape I got is fucked though so I'm waiting on new tape to finish it off and skate

I don't know how I managed the rock to fakie on the cutout and I haven't been able to replicate it without hitting the rail first.

Dude boardslide was so dope. What park is this?!
 
Skated LES today and it was pretty empty, so fun. Also skated the only section of brooklyn banks that is open, not much but pretty sick, had songs from THPS2 and Jamie Thomas in Welcome to Hell playing in my head
 
Been to our local the last few weekends working on keeping my feet under me. I only get a few minutes at a time as my kid gets occupied with wanting to go and explore instead of riding his bike or board.

That spot is a big RIP. Super fun and the only thing I remember particularly fondly about going to NY other than some decent food. Sucks they couldn't do the same as for Southbank and save it. Legendary place for skateboarding.
