[@PristineTX]

Yeah, breaking glass and littering for no reason is just a dick move. Shit like that ruins otherwise good skate vids and ruins spots. Surfers learned this in the 1970s. Don't know why some skaters can't just be chill with the world we live in.

Phil, breaking a bottle and rolling around in it would’ve been the "punk" thing (since that’s the picture Thrasher is trying to portray nowadays) to do instead of breaking glass in the road so someone’s dog or kid could get a free trip to the E.R. after they impale cut themselves from it, that’s just lame and stupid. I’ve been sober for 8 years and if I was still out there using I wouldn’t be here rubbing some people the wrong way.
