I have been getting back into skateboarding, and watching a lot more on YouTube.
I have been enjoying Dan Corrigan’s channel, and I’ve enjoyed seeing the elements that make up a pro team like Powell.
There’s also podcast style shows I’ve been watching, like The Nine Club, or Hawk versus Wolf.
Having been out of the skate scene for the past decade or two, what have I missed out on, and what are you guys getting hyped on?
You know what I’m probably thinking of the slap thread where they just rip through his socials - apparently liked a lot of Charlie Kirk type grifty shit. https://www.slapmagazine.com/index.php?topic=132216.120
Roger is definitely complaining about Gifted Hater. ‘Cancel Culture’ refers (I think) the Chris Cole debacle (beat up his wife and neglected his kids pretty badly over the years) and that just kind of got swept under the rug by JT and a bunch of other industry stone heads. GH made a video about that plus other shitbags like Tim Poole.
Glad you liked it!
Thinking about parts of note from the last couple years. This T-Funk is probably the one that sticks in my head. Just a fucking beast. Worth watching the whole vid but it is very Bakery ;) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uyfck1p430
Louis Lopez dropped loads of great parts while making a run for SOTY- His Cons one- https://youtu.be/2m8gvIzgfik?t=439
Evan Smith is also pretty banging - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tUr2NZfRq4
Supreme’s Cherry just bc if you haven’t seen it, it seems to have been one of those seminal vids of the teenies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zIVTDbve7k (not a supreme product fan but the vid is great)
