[shatchett0]

Really cool video. You could not get away with this style now. You'd get laughed off the street. But I guess the boards are better now. And the riders too I'd guess. Still cool though.

[The777JesusFreak]

[shatchett0]

Things sure have changed. Damn.

[MADskater247]

these people arent longboarders u fucks. this is how skateboarding was back in the day

[BeMaC]

@MADskater247 your a preteen asshole my friend, i have a Board of the 70 and it's so more ah Slalome Board then a fucking Street Deck, more like riding a a Slalomeboard or a Short Carver....

I hate Streetskater how flame his own Community becouse Longboarder are Skateboard, Landyachtz FTW.. so STFU

[nunfu]

Mostly I see scene kids skateboarders posing.

One came with us to a garage session,... the kid couldnt even roll. The fashion is in regular skateboarding, not in longboarding.

Try hittin 60 on a board and tell us where the real men are.

[bitchbusted]

the one kid looked like jay adams skating del mar

[DrumGold]

SHAMON !!!

Love that slaylom !

[anticonformist777]

i skate and longboard because i enjoy it but sad what skaters have become when you longboard they mock you when you skate they dont do a thing if some skaters are reading this show some respect

[whiteyduvual]

agreed

it's starting to get that way with surfing also.

i enjoy longboarding more than riding a short board, and i get a lot of criticism for it.

[niceace]

no respect for longboarders. you might as well be fruit-booting.

[RealEros1]

why do you hate longboarders?

[niceace]

i dont hate them. hate is too strong of a word. I would have to care a whole lot more than I do 2 hate them. One thing i do think though; is that at times it looks ridiculous..but that's just my opinion. One thing i did notice though..more times than not...a lot of posers tend to ride longboards (not saying everyone that rides them is a poser). I dont like how people classify lb under skateboarding. I think each should be their own entity..plus sb being associated with that makes it look corny.

[RealEros1]

same i longboard and skateboard i wish many who longboard would just make it its own thing and no posers would stay with skateboarding(to just look cool) to keep their pose but if you mean people who suck at tricks just say that dont say poser cause poser=person who does it for the look and girls......non-poser=someone who loves it and not for the look :) big diff and there are no posers in longboarding but anyway i believe longboarding is fun on hills,pools etc etc :)

[niceace]

yeah theyre are deff posers in longboarding. Most of the people in my school who cant skate go around on theyre longboards trying to look cool with theyre shades n flip flops trying to pick up girls n look pretty Alot of em just carry those huge boards around not once using it. I even heard two of em bitchin about how they ride longboards becuz its too hard to skate and how one push hurts their feet...lol and i kno what a poser is; i dont need u to break it down for me.

[RealEros1]

wow lol your school gots posers haha i dont longboard for that i enjoy it cause its fast,fast deep carving,and i love sliding down hills maybe their just cruisers and what it hurts their knees haha its not hard to skate i think its pretty easy when your enjoying i can frontside flip,kickflip,ollie 180 you know fun stuff but i hardly do it now since longboarding you know but to say every longboarder is a fake is dumb its like saying every skaterboarder is a person only doing it cause its in

[niceace]

i didn't say every longboarder is a fake. you took it that way. not once did I say every longboarder is that way. and its not just my school; i've come across longboarders like that outside of my school too. Maybe if you reread what I previously wrote..you would see that i made a point in saying not everyone is like that. obviously everyone cant be one way in anything.

[RealEros1]

you made it sound that way anyway i would say if a longboarder brothers you why are you in the skateboard lifestyle? besides the only time a person should be treated like a fake,poser etc etc is if he's a dick period if he shows respect and is enjoying himself longboarding or skating then i see nothing wrong with it anyway dont reply to this i bet you getting bored of replying i am so bye :)

[niceace]

yeah i am getting bored and will not reply anymore. ill just say i dont even care enough to be bothered by a longboarder. i just think its corny...but thats me. n i skate cuz i love it. anyways im done. peeeeace....

[shittyshit69]

i'll say it, i fuggin HATE longboarders, should call em longbladers, cuz they are a bunch of kooks with no style, the only time you should longboard is downhill and slalom, if you are this type of skater then you get a pass but if you just ride around school with a hemp necklace lookin all sketchy then you are weak.

[RealEros1]

thats why you get a longboard so you can surf hills and go fast as hell or ride some concrete banks and slide but in no way should you hate them

[POCKYTIME]

dude dont be hater. I bet you cant even turn a skateboard asshole!

[shittyshit69]

@POCKYTIME sheeeeit, I'll do a 360 revert on your grave sucka!

[fortunesrus]

You probally hate longboarders because someone shoved one up your loose butt hole, and go get some wrtting lessons.

[shittyshit69]

@fortunesrus yeah, I'll get some "wrtting" lessons, shitbird.

[davidsquall351]

@fortunesrus Hahahaha I love these comments....hahahah......... Loose butthole.....

[d3dreaper]

lmao they would pissed themselves if someone busted a kickflip during the freestyle

[queenville]

"he's a very popular skateboarder and his good looks and natural style have gave him a big following" that's when i started to laugh

[shrinerlp]
