It doesn’t look great but it’s hardly apocalyptic.

That website (redirect) is quite something. They’re offering books by the pallet (not free).

Accidently made my wife jealous after she pointed out I have repeatedly talked about Sabrina Carpenter’s BRIT’s performance all morning - It was the music honestly…

Thanks for the heads up, just had to pop to YouTube to make sure I’m up to date with the current… music. Don’t want to be out of the loop of the cultural zeitgeist. Might have to watch it again

Barry Keoghan you silly silly boy
Gotta ask you guys because I’ve been thinking about this too much and it’s killing me.
Alright, a while ago somebody posted a clip of Penny doing one of those nosewheelie nollie 180 to fakie wheelie things, and we all agreed that those were illegal because of the 4-wheels-down-at-the-same-time-mid-trick factor.
I later asked about lipslide to nosegrinds and @anonymity or @neddy confirmed that those were illegal for the same reason.
By this logic, boardslide to fakie 5-0s on ledges are equally illegal, which makes Pepe Martinez and Paul Shier serious criminals.
What about the trick Ray Barbee did up those 3 stairs in Ban This (the same stairs loads of people skated in Goldfish) near the 2:14 mark?
Pepe, Shier and Ray Barbee are all skater’s skaters as we call them. How and why do they get away with those tricks though? Are those guys special because they can make questionnable tricks look dope, or are those tricks dope because those guys do them?
Sorry if I sound like I had a potent edible. Bit of a chicken and the egg dilemma but I had to ask.
I feel like trick illegality has levels and I don’t feel anything you listed is that bad. I’d rather see any of those tricks than a grind to manual for example

Yeah absolutely.
I like some grind or slide to manual combos, some can be tasty, but I prefer doing them than seeing them, if that makes sense.

That makes loads of sense. I learned nose grinds because of Mark Nicholson’s nose grind / nose manual / nose grind on the Harrow blocks in the first (second?) Death video. I think it’s more about when it became a fashionable thing that bothered me
I do loads of illegal tricks and couldn’t care less (lipslide to any truck grind is a great trick)

So true! Manuals on mini ramp are the stinkiest of stink, but they feel absolutely amazing!
Nowt wrong with a bit of stench.
