Steve Cobain

It’s called of the year because it’s annual. Duh

Kharyan

Are you still making the Goat video?

Kharyan

would like to see a supreme cherry analysis

I can't help but wonder how it came to pass that every time some butthurt little white man gets upset about society's progress taking his jokes away from him, he defends them as "legitimately funny". Like legitimised by which institution exactly? The hurtful humour conservation institute of White male dominant opinion? Fuxk outta here clown. Also, @Caro thanks for a very considered and insightful take. This is how racism within our scene should be discussed, with a clear argumentation and context. I hope Joa can agree.

Shredsi

Holy shit I just found out by cruising Slap that the substack Anthony Pappalardo is not the same person as the ex pro skater. Is that just a known thing for everybody else?! Certainly had me fooled...

Shredsi

i mean two other people skated it before him so that doesn’t make sense

John Philips

source?

John Philips

Son I am 42. And 4-5 years is a over exaggeration. That was different times with different considerations. Times change. So youngster catch up with the times. If a grandpa like me can then you can.

kelton

you’re probably young but companies used to release a full length video with “all” of their team riders and those would take like 4-5 years to film before it would come out. Basically any soty before the recent years you can just assume most of the footage was not filmed within the same year

John Philips

So it is called “of the year” for nothing. It should be called skater then. So next year Nyjah could use footage from when he was 12. And you would be cool considering that for his 2023 “SOTY”bid. Sorry it is now “S” since what year it was filmed doesn’t matter

kelton

it has nothing to do with when the footage was filmed, it only has to do with when the footage was released

John Philips

For real, thing was close to a high water mark of the park review format.

JP

Dill calling anybody weird is pretty rich

evcardin

Sorry for spamming the comments dog but the newest park review is so good. Not assume but are you filming with Luke Murphy now?

It looks like the photo of my landlord on the rent portal site

Great thumbnail in the pocket vid

Nyjah is the Leonardo DiCaprio of skateboarding

Nathan Watermolen

am i really supposed to believe that the only person who can skate that subway gap is tyshawn

evan jolley

LOL

Pete Currie

✅✅✅✅

J O

I didn’t mean that it is. I thought that Tyshawn said something else that was misheard as goo goo.

Caro

People were literally saying they gave it to tyshawn because he’s black as if nyjah is not also black

Alprozalambo

Uploading rn be up shortly

I been at work- vod link from earlier?

Alexander Cantu

saying goo goo is not aave my guy

BUMP

All the more reason I’m going to not get so butthurt about the award going forward it’s a bunch of old heads picking whoever they feel like

1

Idk I think thrasher just justifies it however they want, there’s probably no consistency lol

1

I heard a hot rumor today, take it however you will, FA is supposedly done as a board brand.. Shocking, but explains the $30 deck firesale, also explains Hockey having a separated website..

Joe Ferruccio

AVE's shit in the vans video was like complied from 4 or so yeas..

joa on weird little desk confirmed

"weirdo kook-fuckers doing commentary on skateboarding from their weird little desk on their weird little YouTube channel," - Dills little youtuber s/o in the new sneezemag

Jacob

what Tyshawn said was honestly gross and disappointing and I don't think your content garners the type of audience that would completely abandon you because a popular figure is trying to cancel you we got ur back <3

dbharr17

Tyshawn has Godspeed era footage, I think tyshawn maybe did more stuff this actual year than nyjah though, so that may have been a factor

1

Doesn’t the fact Nyah had element era footage kind of disqualify from skater of the year? This makes it skater of the past few years. Skater of the year is supposed to be of the past 365 odd days.

kelton

I put a filter on the cough so you’re protected 😍

lets stay there for a bit

Josh Calvo

It was legitimately funny if you don’t apply a critical race theory dissertation to it.

Nyjah and everyone else doesn’t have to “top” themselves to win. Mark Sucui’s verso part went harder than 3 of the 4 parts he dropped last year when he won.

Kharyan

Think this audio would have been great for your YouTube channel as well!

Felix K.

I think everyone should watch mark suciu’s interview with talkin Schmidt. He gives a lot of insight into how thrasher and sponsors coordinate for people to make a push for the end of the year to make it more entertaining for viewers.

Kharyan

Take some time off, I'll keep my subscription, get well soon

Barefoot Bomber

Wishing you a speedy recovery king 💯

playboi farti

agree it's crazy.. I do think it makes his type of skating, including that bs flip, less impressive, because it doesn't really seem very difficult for him to jump super high

Coinstar

Right? Dude has springs for legs!

Caro

Sigh… to dream the impossible dream 😕

Caro

Totally agree with pretty much all you said and, as always, appreciate your willingness to reconsider and evolve your opinions and stances. But… about the “goo goo” thing… Language, especially spoken language, is heavily tied up with racial and socio-economic factors. While you say Tyshawn got lazy with his speech on that ad, it sounds to me like what he did was fail to code switch from “unacceptable” i.e. AAVE, speech to “acceptable” I.e. “white” speech. Even if he just had a syllabobble, the history of white people dictating how BIPOC people should sound in order to be taken seriously is long and ugly. Even though I’m 1000% certain you didn’t intend anything racist by it, the context has a seriously racist track record, and I can understand how people would be sensitized to it. Lazy, in particular, is a hot button word, especially for Black people. Basically, I know you’re not intentionally being that guy, but white supremacists ruin everything and you’re treading into dog whistle territory. Jsyk.

Caro

did anyone see how easily Tyshawn jumped over the train tracks after he did the backside flip lol

Coinstar

Also about phelps and T-funk, I’m pretty sure phelps had a disliking to a lot of pros but would still give them credit that’s why T-funk was still on soty lists while phelps was alive.

zacho

That’s why I wanted Louie or T-funk, all their footy was either from 2022 or 2021 (about a year to year and a half which is average for a 5-7 min part) so they weren’t putting their careers on hold just filming for a part like how they usually do.

zacho

This could have all been avoided if they went with the real SOTY, Kevin “Spanky” Long baby

VapoRubBoy

The racist talk really blew me away... very racist to look at trajectories and angles lol

evcardin

Thanks for this, this is what I’ve been saying. It’s a publication choosing their skater of the year. This isn’t some federation that gets together with viable metrics and deliberates over something. Thrasher has a vibe that they “try” to uphold. If a skater of a certain vibe doesn’t fit the publications vibe they aren’t going to win if even considered. It’s Thrashers skater of the year, not the skater of the year. Thrashers just the only large publication right now, ideally there would be multiple publications with their picks

VapoRubBoy

He’s tyshawn’s David loy, hair dye and all

JP

Big agree. Good stuff from the Gifted Recalibrator

Donny Toothpicks

Nelly but Chandler should’ve put himself on it😩

friedtothemarrow

damn bro how many times you got covid

joey t

Kinda weird how so many people threw around that "people that say #notmysoty" meme and show a bunch of hicks with MAGA hats. So outta left field.

Morgasm

Sick. Very thoughtful reassessment. Rare on the internet. Speedy recovery sir

Theodore Barrow

He acts like tyshawns henchman

friedtothemarrow

Hope u recover quick from Covid shit sucks

Sam

nakel wins #droty (dick rider of the year) the interview he did with davonte jolly and tyshawn is so fucking hard to watch with his puppy dog energy toward tyshawn

Aidan Ellsworth

I remember in 2012 when I forsure thought it was gunna go to either guy Marino or figggy that year, but went to David Gonzalez. I was so bummed and outraged that I legit gave up on thrasher until I felt like they did something right when Wes Kramer took it. Thrasher isn’t perfect, they rep an idea of what skateboarding should or shouldn’t be. Most of the time they’re trekking through muddy watering. Just my two Sense.

Rene

That’s the next YouTube video, I am fully burnt on the drama

1

Can we have a couple videos of useless fun? A park review or a vlogman could really clean the palette after this past couple months.

JP

thrasher got a bounty on GH head stay safe joa

friedtothemarrow
