Papa pros: disgustingly divisive. undeniable talent for tech + done on rails.
Cons: he dresses like a nerd. has a shit style. has a big fat ham for a head which makes him look like a cartoon character.
Neutral observation: facially, he looks like an AI generated merge of Mike mo and Chris moltasanti. Given the vastness of utter drivel of ‘interesting’ skating and flip into stall on an overly waxed ledge and slide 15 foot super ‘tech’ that we’ve been exposed to in the advent of the internet, his stinking selection is (in the greater scheme of things) not that bad. Wild time be an aspiring professional skater/observer of aspiring professional skater
What is it with 35 year old Canadians skating like they’re 25. Must be something in the water. Or just the pressures of being a Canadian skater on a Dwindle brand
There was and I’ve spent 10 mins looking for it but going on what I just watched it’s probably pointless.
Berrics and cariuma has sucked the life out of this season just with the first episode. Wish they’d stay out of this stuff . Was way better when it was actually done by macba life .
Dire .
Just watched that Rowan Davis part.
Damn! To be that progressive and skate those spots that fast is unbelievable. Definitely witnessing greatness.
Thought it worth quoting this comment off Slap from someone obviously familiar with where it’s filmed.
“Fucking unreal. All of those spots are within a couple of KM’s of each other and are certainly not spots. Newcastle might be a ‘city’ on paper but is certainly not a city by a global standard…. More like a beachside suburb that has a professional rugby league team and a history in steel making.
To film all of these tricks on those crappy spots that thousands of skaters wouldn’t have looked twice at is simply incomprehensible.”
He’s fucking great. There are a few really amazing kids coming up like that Eetu dude too.
Stuck record moment so stop reading from here.
SOME of those massive/incredible tricks were ruined by being too close and preoccupied with getting that face shot.
