2023-05-25 04:43:52 +0000 UTCCouldn’t agree more, thought I’d give those dicksons a try because I don’t mind his skating and that under rubber was something new for Emerica but legit first time putting them on the whole front of the outsole fell off from the upper and that was the last time I gave Emerica a go

2023-05-17 10:11:26 +0000 UTCIn regard to the LRAB comments, unfortunately, look at the Polar team as a whole. LRAB is also a reflection of Pontus and his decision making. Shoes looks incredible, skate kind of crappy, but yeah... love to see Last Resort (and Polar honestly too) embrace skateboarding and what it looks like in 2023.

2023-05-14 01:42:46 +0000 UTCSo many of the "core" skate shoe companies have fallen (pun intended). I picked up some Lakais out of curiosity a while back and was disappointed, but not surprised. Currently looking forward to taking my Adidas out behind the barn so I can pick up a pair of Last Resorts

2023-05-10 07:29:07 +0000 UTCI think that’s more on Rowan for biting what’s cool rn in skating and he’s in a band so I’m sure that’s their music not crailtap biting Daniel dent
Kenneth Copeland
2023-05-09 19:03:48 +0000 UTCEmerica was my go-to shoe for years, and I held on a lot longer than other skaters in my area, but it got way too hard to deny the decline in quality. I want to like them so badly but I just can't.

2023-05-09 12:11:40 +0000 UTCI think his homies filmed a lot, music was not good but damn he's sick as hell
Coinstar
2023-05-09 05:35:52 +0000 UTChaha damn you're not wrong but a little too angry imo. I like his opinions for the most part but I'm out on his patreon shit like five bucks isn't that much but it seriously is pretty worthless. Catching a stream once and a while and watching his clips channel is enough for me, I'm not gonna pay five bucks for a fuckin tier list every two weeks anymore.

2023-05-09 04:34:31 +0000 UTCI thought the skating was good too but I could not stand the music at all

2023-05-08 22:49:14 +0000 UTCwhat did yall think of the new Rowan Davis part. Kinda weird to see Crailtap biting daniel dents style so heavily while simultaneously doing it much much worse, especially for pro announcement part. skating was sick but filming was really botched
Jawn Shanahan
2023-05-08 22:09:52 +0000 UTChomie just stop paying him then he has a life as well
loris
2023-05-08 22:01:55 +0000 UTCDude where is part 2 lol ? This dude's patreon is very sus. Does not post nearly enough and even when he does shit is mid and unprepared more often than not. Dudes entire shtick is forming an opinion for teens who think they are smarter than their 17 year old friends. If you take the money,at least put something out no

Joseph
2023-05-08 18:40:10 +0000 UTCkinda weird that this is on patreon only. like this is the GH content we all loved on youtube. the tierlist type stuff. Just not sure why this is behind a paywall

2023-05-08 17:50:39 +0000 UTCI like that they are essentially doing the cariuma strat but with the opposite types of skaters. Can't wait to try a pair when theyre available in the US

J D switchstANCE
2023-05-08 14:53:45 +0000 UTCI wholeheartedly agree, best shoe I've had in a while
Dávid Lizom
2023-05-08 11:11:12 +0000 UTCthe emerica wino slip ons are sick they're full suede, in plain colours, with little branding, good insoles and the little heel tab thing puts in work for keeping them on your feet. the videos are trash the companies kinda washed but the wino slip is undeniably the best bang for buck slip on's in the game edit: plus you literally will never have to pay retail on them ever
Jake Lewis
2023-05-08 11:02:02 +0000 UTCI knew you were going to shit all over emerica but I don't think my heart was ready for it

2023-05-08 05:15:00 +0000 UTCSo many awful shoes being produced I can’t help but think of the environmental impacts of fast/senseless fashion. Would happily pay more for a shoe that’s been made ethically in America/Europe as I’m sure we’d see an increase in quality too.

2023-05-08 01:59:52 +0000 UTCI watched you talk about the ASICS skate program on stream last month that’s started out in Japan, they’ve got Emile and you probably know they sent some shoes to the late night stars guys recently, would be interested to see what you can dig up about the reasons behind their starting in such a sneaky backdoor ass way? Their dedicated skate instagram is also crazily low rent, anyway kisses

2023-05-07 01:33:16 +0000 UTCya having hiding logos really speaks volumes of the design, for it to not need them to be identifiable . so many smart people in the patreon audience lol
evan jolley
2023-05-07 01:22:08 +0000 UTCI like what you are saying and think I get it. I despise designer brand clothing articles that blast their logo on the side of their “accessible” or basic consumer product. louis v “never full bag” is a prime example. But they use those bags to get exposure to a larger audience who can’t afford their couture (a completely different animal). It’s hard to find a brand/product with a balance of low profile, style and accessibility. I think Last Resort does a good job of making that balanced product. (Not saying Louis v and last resort are on the same level.)
Haroldo
2023-05-07 00:49:17 +0000 UTCthe talk about your ex and the nostalgia surrounding them is opening my eyes, thank you

Nature Table
2023-05-06 19:33:09 +0000 UTCi understand what ur saying with the logo not adding to the design, but please consider running shoes pretty much any shoes, or company would want people to know what shoe u are looking at. its not a skateboarding problem, its a business and branding problem. some of the most alluring high fashion brands do not use logos to define their silhouettes ,making them very subtle ,few and hidden, but u are also paying for that. rick owens , prada , margiela come to mind. but ya. i prefer that, and last resort may not get enough credit for that.

2023-05-06 18:57:24 +0000 UTCCouple of those emerica x oj wheels pretty beast tho
Benjamin White
2023-05-06 17:47:31 +0000 UTCI truly believe if he takes breaks to either skate or just regain his mental health, the content will be better anyways so I think it’s good when he takes the time off
JP
2023-05-06 17:46:55 +0000 UTCThank you for the content ❤️

2023-05-06 17:36:08 +0000 UTCMarana XLT is my shoe of choice. I got a pair on sale and they fit, skate well, and last a long time so I bought them again.

2023-05-06 17:07:36 +0000 UTCI love how joa is apologizing for going skating instead of working to us who've been going skating instead of working our whole lives

Dylan Roeder
2023-05-06 15:18:08 +0000 UTCI pay monthly for the quality not quantity, maybe Im in the minority but you could go a whole month no vids and Id still be happy to support you as a creator, I love watching the streams or going back and watching old videos on here or your youtube. Nothing but love and support for you gifted fam!

2023-05-06 14:53:49 +0000 UTCAnyone else feel like joa has a monopoly on skating content? Like even if he did stop making vids… where we going? There isn’t a single other good skating YouTuber out there. Glad you’re back tho papi! 🥺☺️🤕🥹😌🥰😋😏
Bell
2023-05-06 14:20:18 +0000 UTCHang in there, buddy. Just when you think there couldn't possibly be another shoe as perfect as your old shoe, a new shoe will enter the picture and you'll forget all about your old shoe. You live in a shoe Mecca. Remind yourself of all the incredible, smart, funny, attractive shoes out there. It's just a matter of time before the right shoe comes along. Wait...what exactly are we talking about?

Kedrick Bryant
2023-05-06 12:11:37 +0000 UTCSkateboarding is very diverse, literally everyone and their mom skates. So if your team is just a bunch of white guys that skate similarly and your company is lacking representation then you won’t have as much outreach and will 100% stunt your company’s growth.

2023-05-06 09:37:19 +0000 UTCno he should not he is indebted to us we are paying him he should slave 24 hours each day to provide us content
loris
2023-05-06 09:37:00 +0000 UTCAlso I shouldn’t speak for the other derelicts within your fan base, but we know you’re sponsored-not-sponsored by Sci Fi Fantasy, so if you’re skating a lot and taking advantage of your youth and these opportunities to skate with them, you should definitely pursue it and not be sorry about it. Paying for content we’re not getting is kind of a bummer but it’s not like months have gone by with nothing.
jay
2023-05-06 08:22:59 +0000 UTCI love skating Lynx OGs but I hate wearing them They skate really well and I don’t go home with sore feet and ankles, I actually like the old school running shoe look, but I’m not really a puffy shoe guy. I don’t know how I’m going to live with this conundrum.
jay
2023-05-06 08:08:54 +0000 UTCThe Emerica Romero Laced is pretty cool and a good shoe but they botch most of the colors
