Where'd you go ? I missed you so...

So, I haven't posted in a few months and here is why. After Evan and I finished our own local skate video back in August I really had a bad taste in my mouth as far as criticizing anyone's skating. I tried pretty hard for some of the footage that I had in my part and showing it in front of a group of people that I'm sure were judging every second of my footage was a mind trip to say the least. I'm sure pro skaters go through the same insecurity. Here's something that they worked their butt off on for a couple years and some little kid that only does flatground in his driveway comes on the internet and rips on the dude when in reality the kid probably will never do a single trick in that pros part. Have I completely changed ? No. I still hate on certain skaters but this blog will not showcase that. That's something that will stay among friends and in the skateshop/skatepark. The new goal of the blog is to inform everyone on who I think rips. Probably alot of old footage will be up here. Some names you might have heard of, some not. Some new footage that I've filtered through, in all the countless internet video garbage that floods todays skateboard market. Today I'll start with a classic. Wade Speyer, the man. His skating speaks for itself. Burley, fast, could slam at any second.
