@phillipjayfry Really? That's rad. I hear he's working on something, but I don't know when or what. I hear Motta's got a full part in the next Nike video. I'm surprised i don't see many people around here. They live here, but go everywhere else.

@phillipjayfry I'm just surprised it hasn't happened sooner. haha. Reider's always been sick and Gilette's always been sick, I just don't think he's as underestimated as you think he is. Most skaters have something cool you can like em for. I just gotta rep Motta and Carlin. Carlin's due for something soon actually I hope.

@phillipjayfry his part's pretty good, I'm just not personally a fan of standalone parts. Gilette is just the new hype. He's just the taste of the month like Gonzalez was a couple weeks ago and then Westgate before him, then Ortiz before him and so on and so forth. I think jaws is working on something next, but I'm gettin tired of just having the separate parts so they can market one skater at a time. I honestly love Gilette and his Quik part was totally rad and his Thrasher part was pretty rad because it didn't overtech anything. If you take a step back right now, though, and look at the skate community, Gilette's on the top right now.

@phillipjayfry Well as cool as it is to hate mainstream skaters and stuff, there are a few I like, shane and P.Rod always deserving my respect. Shane for making the extremely tech look so simple and P. Rod for his constant switch throwdowns. He's always been rad. Nyjah's alright, but I don't really like his style much. Rise and Shine got really old really fast and I didn't even want to watch most of it despite it being undoubtedly good. It's just boring and repetitive. The point is to develop tastes based on actual criticisms as opposed to bias like that.

@phillipjayfry i've been meaning to, but I don't know anyone with a car or have a very large group of friends I skate with. Ditches are fun in general. The really tech stuff is cool and I admire it for it's difficulty and all that, but it's just not even fun to watch. Innovation and fun mean different things to different people, but as haslam said "who can do the tech stuff and look good getting away with it?" I feel O'neill and maybe P Rod are the only ones in that category.
-
@phillipjayfry no, it's totally true. I'm just tired of the same old tech flips and flip-in flip-outs in plazas and perfect sets that major videos tend to rely on. I like a nice mix which most don't seem to offer. Like local AZ videos usually have ditch skating and more run of the mill spots with a nice set thrown in. It brings it back to the fun, innovative stuff. Not doubting the dudes are rad, but the skating is kinda "bleh"
-
@phillipjayfry You seen it already? They usually rip, but, I mean, it just ends up being typical pro skating with crappy styles that I don't really like. It's the reason i don't really watch videos from major companies anymore. They're good, but the style usually gets old.
-
@phillipjayfry I'll probably go across the street and snag it. Not a big fan of the Baker crew outside of Reynolds, Nuge, and Lizard, but free videos are free videos.
-
@phillipjayfry Yeah. Finally getting around to buying A Happy Medium 1 and 2 and that Pyramid Country video has alot of rad dudes and bro style. Why not drop $55 on em?
-
@phillipjayfry Whoa, those are neat, where did you get them?
-
@phillipjayfry Oh, I refuse to go in Hot Topics, especially alone. I guess that's the only option with the online selling going as it is.
-
@phillipjayfry Oh, lucky. Got em before they sold out.

@phillipjayfry Haven't seen you in a while. Looks good.

@phillipjayfry that'd be nice since I have a lot of debt right now. :)
-
@phillipjayfry Good. your avatar is that.
-
@phillipjayfry Well if anything, it definitely makes me feel more assured about paying $100 for a plushie. Not that I don't think it's more than an understable price, but it is still money I'm shelling out.
