wakesk8r9610, I didnt think you were bragging about your shots or interview. I was seriously saying congrats. I think that is really cool. I'd be pumped.
The article...was simply humor. there was no seriousness to it. It was a kid, who probably has browsed some forums, and has seen some young kids trying to get sponsors...response to that. I still do not see why people claped for la sewer when they said it. that thought la sewer was c0re, and thats what wakeskating needed to be, no one sponsor hungry, let the sponsors come to you. And now NL says the same stuff and it's hurting wakeskating?
Most are saying that he just copied alot of other websites, and mags articles. Alot of skate and snow mags do this, and even a wakeskate site. Ya...maybe it has been used...but it was still funny to me. However, I can agree with the guys who think this...
other's are saying he should be fired, he's a kook...and it's bad for the sport. Wakeskating needs peope who are passionate about the sport, people who care, and want things to progess. People in their own local scenes teaching kids how to skate...this way more people will buy skates, and all these companies will prosper. In turn being able to bring more talent onto their team. so guys like Andy P, and Stu shin, and Blake steele can pick up some serious sponsor money and making a living off of it.
We dont need kids getting a bro brah hook up from a company and going around acting like they are this shiz.... _________________ 10101 |

Classy, Maybe the reason people "claped" at the guys who wrote the La Sewer article is because they are wakeskaters, not interns. _________________ -Jordan Schwaller

I think this thread is mildly stupid and I'm sick of seeing this shizzle at the top of the page.
My prediction: By page 8 it will be so far off topic and so personal that it will get locked like all the others that do this. _________________ The promise of heaven out of reach.

Satire should, like a polished razor keen, Wound with a touch that's scarcely felt or seen.
I wear my Pen as others do their Sword. To each affronting sot I meet, the word Is Satisfaction: straight to thrusts I go, And pointed satire runs him through and through.
excellent satire. _________________ Life's Kredo = "When the snake falls in love with the spagetti it's time to buy a new hat." & "I guess I need to whiskey up these corn flakes..and heroin up this Orange Juice." |

I think its funny when he talks about having your daddy go out and by you a new master craft or some shiz cause there are in fact many kids who do that, who are all about the look and not the actual ride. I don't think this guy was attacking all wakeskaters I think he was more so pointing out what is wrong in certian areas of the sport. So if you dont meet the criteria to what he's talking about, and you don't care about the sponsorship and just want to have fun then why get offended? I don't know I thought he was mocking the "Dude Bro's" of our sport so I found it humorous. _________________ Sometimes I'd rather live in a tent then bust my ass to pay the rent. |

yeah lets get conflicts going on thats really gonna get people excited about a sport, who wants a good vibe every one listen to that. thats really gonna help everything out..... if it was people magazine! but not for a sport. i thought we were doing this for fun but i guess its just ratings.
personal opinion thats it. oh and tad andrew pastura is immortal and boy does he make it look good
electricsnow that was the best compliment i have ever gotten about esoteric thank you!
everyone go out and ride have a good time and make it a party. its the best way to do it.

wants to be accepted as "cool" in his respective sport. you guys should be nicer. you make fun of someone once, they compare you to rollerbladers for hte rest of their career. congratulations.
