though skateboarding from all those young kids like chaz ortiz is breathtaking good, its poisoning skateboards soul. All the kids on the street now are just sucess-seeking competitors. Only established Pro's like Koston still seem to just enjoy riding and have fun...
Professional skateboarding means your going to have to compete, to establish yourself as the best. Its a dog eat dog world in the career of professional sports.
Start skating for fun, but once you get good enough to make a career out of it, its going to be more business side than fun. Eric Koston has been in the game a long time but he is no where near the best now. Thus he makes less money at competitions. Establishing yourself allows you to create companys and enjoy it.
i know and they dont have to prove anything everyone knows how "good" they are and they sure as hell dont need that prize money...give someone else a chance
yeah man true, but just their attitudes more than anything, i mean whatever skateboarding is becoming more and more of a profitable industry but to me, thats not what skateboarding is about, and these dick heads only seem to skate for the money
@mikemofullyflared they arnt money loving faggots. skating is there jobs and competing in competitions is apart of being a pro skater. and the attitude you see is just on camera, i bet u in there home life they are more generous and caring then you realize.
@MrKilln4gold Its hard to make money in Hip Hop dude. Skating is gonna pay the bills faster than any song he could ever make for sure. I don't think he thought that whole quiting skating to become a rapper all the way through. Good to see hes back tho.
who gives a fuck about nike or addidas, they make good skate shoes! I would give a fuck about redbull though, but they do bare positive shit like comps and stuff
heres a hard queston for all of u which wud u take nike or addias (i kno its a chioce between two evils lol) but in 5 to 10 im guess one of thoz 2 companys will be running the skate world id personally take addias
I know what you mean, but you have to look at it both ways man, there maybe some fucking buisnessman looking at his profit chart for Kostons latest shoe in his office, but skateboarding is more popular than ever atm. Nike has a lot of exposure so that means skateboarding gets more exposure, Im not saying that Im taking Nike's side, I'd much rather see the skater owned companies at the top, they know the true meaning of skating, but Nike and Adidas will have garnered more popularity for it.
fuck you, you have some fairy fucking game videos on your profile you fagget. Go suck a dick you sandbaging son of a bitch. who the fuck are you to put me on trial. i bet your really fucking good at skating. you spell like a fucking dipshit too
true i've seen the vid off him on tampa 09 he's fucking consecutive. pulls out the craziest shit after shit. also his orlando trip he won prod and other pros. came out number 1. he definetly should be pro
Lutzka? i like his style but, doesn't repeat any single year the same tricks?? P-Rod should win, i thought the first sw flip transfer was sheckler cause hes so fucking stylus sw stance...
u no i believe its all a conspiracy and tht P-Rod plannd tht all from the beginnin. he got sponsored skatin normal but calld it switch and did a few actual ''switch'' tricks. so now in all these vids and comps its not really switch lol
rodney would get destroyed in a comp like this. becase rodney does a lot of flat and freestyle this is a park/street comp. plus rodney doesnt do comps anymore
he would not destory beacsue the judges don't want to see that, mullen can't even do a trick on the rail or over the set, he would destory the best trick maybe but thats about it

@ABCisDANK
skateboarding shouldn't be competition.. it should be having fun together and getting better and better..
there IS no real best skater and there won't ever be one because every skater skates different and you can't really compare them..
especially NOT at a single day of a competition..
and of course it's really depending on the judges how to rate those guys at competitions..
it's not like in atheletics that you can say "he jumped x.xx m" or "he sprinted the 100m in 9.4secs"
