@evoheyax , not directed towards you at all , but somehow it is a trend on here lately, that poeple proclaim themself as experts of the highest caliber and spew hate and disbelief on others if they don’t agree with them or don’t show as much ambition as them.
I mean, heckling poeple only based on your dislike of their disinterest is ridicoulus. Following that logic I would have to heckle pretty mucht the whole forum. E.G:“Why the F*** aren’t you learning toeside predrifts at 60 mp/h you imbacile, you noob, shame on you you filfthy casual” I mean common, projection much ?
What skaters forget is the risk. As a park skater or freeride/DH you WILL get hurt. I haven’t met a park skater who hasn’t broken their arm, pelvis or ankle at one point (poeple pushing their limits). Or a freerider without some serious road rash or a trip to the ER. It is because we want to progress, daily if possible. We push ourselfs and our limits.
That being said, there a longboarders who go for a short ride in a park, once a month, on flatground and for them it is pure bliss. Awesome right? There a freeriders who ride 5 times a week during holidays, eatch session over 6 hours, having road rash as their companion for the whole saison. Allways searching the next best spot, the next thrill and enjoying nature on those beautiful early morings while throwing down a mountainside at crazy speeds. Aswesome right ?
There are esk8’ters who just want a fun toy, go for joyrides after work before they go back to their regular family diner. Awesome right ? There are poeple who push the agenda of esk8 and go for 4wd builds, crazy speeds and serious riding skills. Awesome right ?
Could go on ad on and on… Basically to eatch their own. If a qeustion is not asked, don’t force the answer on them. We live in the time of the internet, making innformation so easily avaivable. So IF somone has not chaged their bushigs or once touched their skatetool to adjust the trucks, it is just not in their intrest, or at least they don’t have enough passion for it to spend 30 seconds on google, meaning they don’t really give a damn about that. They just want to relax, clear their heads and have some innocent fun.
It happened way to often that poeple who become ambitious in skating (esk8,dh,fr,etc) also become an elitist with it. Forcing your ideals, ambitions and ideas on others is disgusting, truely truely unsavory.
Let the guy on his yunec 2 have fun. Let the beginner at 35 have fun. Help if help is wanted, give a hand if it is accepted. But don’t go forcing your shit on others and try to project yourself on aynone.
Sorry rant over
To often lately there are poeple talking out of their ass withh bad information or pseudo-knowledge and force their shit on others on here.
Once In a while you will see me loose my shit, if the losing my shit is granted. A blast from the past
