  • 17 people are posers

  • @noproofskateboarding And which 17 people are you referring too?

  • I am amazed at how some younger skaters disrespect the pioneers of the sport...without them, skateboarding might never have become what it is. Alva and the other giants of that time raised the bar for everybody. Also, I personally hope for a resurgence of pool skating and vert-based skateparks and skaters. 

  • @thefreedomartist It truly is amazing that a lot of skateboarders have no clue where their roots came from.

  • @louiebaur the people who disliked the video that was at 17 at some point.

  • Great serious documentary feel about this!

  • @louiebaur I think he was talking abou tthe 17 dislikes

  • it is not about how hard it it, I just love vert thats it!

  • Tony Alva is old now,all he does is carve bowls,If you want to see some sick skating check out Elementality,Its a good video,and Bam has the best part,he is the best on Elemant,and The Band CKY is in it,check it out.

  • @louiebaur he is talking about the tumbs downs (sorry for bad english)

  • in the clip at 0.27 he reminds me of frank zappa

  • @louiebaur the dislikers

  • Such a living legend! Can't wait for Summer X Games 17! They make it look so smooth but the intensity is crazzzy!! July 28th weekend can't come soon enough!

  • most of the skater kids nowdays that talk negative about pool skating or anything other than street are prob like 16 years old and wont even be skating in a few more years anyway. Im 37 still skate only 1 of my friends still does. Anything all those kids say doesnt matter to me because i dont even consider them real skaters they havnt really paid any dues or even been seriously injured yet.
