i remember a old 411 on this kind of

like nerds naka well myself never can market to the mases for the masses want to be cool"

i remember in a old 411 they talked about that it wasnt just about crazy innovative tricks, but it was how it looked while they were doin them

ok

well look at how clean rich alder is but he still gets the back burnner

to a cat like fred gall

who both rip

but

yeah

rich is pushing what can be done and frec decorates what has which is rad though

I just think skating has gotten to a point where everything just has to be perfect now days

like i feel it is funny how some of thease dudes for eaxmple in the far eastern video mags who are off the charts have never been heard of but yet there allwesss enough room for another 50 50 down a rail from some other casrbon copy

not to hate or sound bitter but it makes me sad to see so much talent not get respest

yup same here brotha

good point

nobody cars about haslam

or innovation it is about

being perfect "style"

style to me is often a word used to make up for one's lack of talent"

stoked u feel me man

it is strange how crativity has been hinddred by style

i mean r mullen

one of the most raw and inventive ever

rad

if you could brng back any skate spot

what spoty would you brng back?

sorry i meant spot>

?

lol

you rock thanks 4 doing this buy the way and rrading my drunk shit will spell cgeck it b4 prin. lol

This school called Hickory in Torrance. They had the best 3 in a row ledge spot ever. Daewon and all the Dwindle riders would show up

lol

word

anytime man

i saw that in d won vs rodd round one?

i think?

u wwre in round 2 right?

or was it later?

yup

yea round 2

those were the days

rad thanks man why do u feel innovators seem to get slept on more than followers in any industry? it seems to me cats like you will spencer alex maul ron kinnige never get the respect thast many cats that do not think outside the box do?

if u want to skip it no prob

ir might to hardcore this late at night.

its all good

i guess it is funny like john coltrain never got reapect like charls bird jimi hendrix never got the rtespect of eric clapton and mussy waters never got the respect of elvis

it is funny to me so many people get fucked over

and it is not right

what bugs you more a chip in your deck or high winds?

yeah i hear ya man. i just think if your gonna be a innovater make sure you think it thoroughly first

lol

amen to that

i feel u man

i agree

what is mote of a prob

new kicks

or new bushings?

hmmm

to break in I mean>

yea

?

For me it would be new bushings. I hate getting used to new bushings. Something always goes wrong and i end up getting putting my old ones back in

rad man

so who do u feel are some of the most underrated skaters out there right now?

Thats a tuff question

no stress take ur time my brother

I think there are a lot of underrated skaters, So many of my close friends dont get the props they should get

and all in all, If everyone's havin fun then its all good rite?

word

Rite now in skating i just think it has a lot to do with Marketing yourself rite and being creative

who are some of ur close friends who do not get the respect they should have ?

Derek Fukuhara, Aaron Babila, Robert Lim and Marty Murawski. They are all SUPER good and clean styles.
