Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2003 So yeah, there's not nearly enough skate talk on this board for my liking, so I've taken it upon myself to start some. Who's hot? Seen any good vids? Who sucks ass? So Hot Right Now Eric Koston- The man proved it in Yeah Right and nobody who's seen it can deny the same. If anybody could (theoretically) "end" skateboarding, it may very well be this man. Justin Eldridge- I seriously wonder if this kid is related to Pete Eldridge, 'cause they both have off the fuckin chain switch skills. Check the switch flip salad in the above mentioned video for more love. Danny Way- The best all around skateboarder ever. Brian Anderson- The 6'4 frame = butter smooth style. Along w/ Josh Kalis, the best tre in the business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the max 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2003 I'm more of a fan of the CKY related guys...Margera, Maldonado, Getz...but I have a liking for Burnquist too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JacK Report post Posted November 12, 2003 Well, I *used* to skate a little bit, a very little bit, but I kind of lost all forms of balance somehow, possibly from when I fell down the stairs, but now I can't balance for shit normally, let alone skating. Anywayz, Rodney Mullen does, has and will always rule all kinds off ass at everything! He's the best I've ever seen, that's for damn sure. But that's just my opinion.

Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2003 You and the rest of the world, apparently. Bam is good, but there's so much better out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2003 I'm a marginal skating fan, I don't do it myself, or keep up with the scene. My favorites are Mullen and Natas Kaupas. Yeah, they're kinda old. Like I said I don't keep up. I also love watching people fall down and hurt themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Insanityman Report post Posted November 12, 2003 Yeah, I skate. off-and-on recently, but some back and knee injuries keep me from really being able to just go all out. Anyway, I do an INSANE kickturn (might get it on some friend's website soon) and otherwise I just watch vdeos and skate with friends. I actually only own skate shoes and a free sweatshirt I literally fought for at a demo (product toss= big ass brawl). Oh and fuck Koston... don't know why, but I HATE the guy and his skating style. My favorite is prolly Muelln, a given, and Valley 'cause when I skate decently my styel's like his. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Report post Posted November 12, 2003 Guy Marciano and Jason Lee. Oh, and Jamie Thomas is the best. Fuck Chad Muska...Thomas owns Circa...not literally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted November 13, 2003 The best skateboarding related thing was on this video of horrible wipeouts. Bam Margera tries to ollie down this set of concrete stairs, only eats shit, and takes a header Ganso-Bomb style right into the cement. The very next shot was them putting him into a neck brace. He just folded like an accordion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
