Jeff Dechesare on Dating Life as a Pro And Why he Gets so Much Hate!

[@jeffwonsong]

Fun conversation with my bro! Cant wait to see more guests on the show! 🙌

[@tristan_JediMind]

Ignore the haters. I see you Jeff! You are changing the game in the skateboarding industry. Be yourself and never give up that drive in you 😈🔥

[@tristan_JediMind]

I have a question that wasn’t answered. Do you get bruised heels takings heavy drops like that? If you do, how do you recover from that

[@jeffwonsong]

@@tristan_JediMind every now and then. Preventing bruised heels is more about knowing how to bail properly than anything. To recover there isnt much you can do besides ice it and stay off it for a bit.

[@jeffwonsong]

@HeartTribeJaap just gotta keep pushing! 👊🙌

[@citrificaL]

Damn Jeff writing bars.

[@grizzyization]

Jeff is a legend. Freakin love that dude. One day he’s going to get a paycheck he deserves and it’s going to make up for all the years the skate industry didn’t take care of him. Keep on ripping Jeff! Can’t wait to see what you do in the future!

[@jeffwonsong]

Thank you my man! Whatever happens, happens. Just glad to experience all this in my lifetime 🙌🙏

[@heshhippietv]

Love how he stayed true to himself & continuously pushing skateboarding…amazing interview 💯🙌🏾

I absolutely love this podcast, can’t wait to see who else will show up. Forget about the haters, hate doesn’t even actually exist because it’s just another version of love. Like they say your haters r low key your biggest fans. Keep up the great work.

I respect lamont because he keeps grinding be it skateing music podcasts, content in general truly an inspiration and he will get his flowers in this lifetime i say that with 1000000% certainty

[@crookedrain771]

Idk how this bro gets any hate, one of the coolest dudes alive

[@austinmanuel500]

Lmao people hated Jeff bc of “HOW” he skated, not because he’s a skinny small guy lol.

Fuck that, Im 39, been skating since 96, seen a lot come and go. Jeff rips, the shit he does looks hard af, hes got skills and hes doing something different which is sorely needed in skating. He put a lot of work in to be able to do the stuff he does.

[@LamontHoltTV]

Same lol

[@fullyfb3847]

Good job, guys! Do more of this

[@themindfulsk8r]

Duuude people do hate because they reflect what they hate about themselves on you

[@fantomlimb5008]

Yo Jeff you're dope. People use you're style as an excuse to hate. Its because you're doing dope tricks that they can't do so they attack the thing they might be better at like skating fast. Also you're come up story is so relatable. You never had the dope skate park... you had the loading dock. Every kid has a basement, so they hate on you because they know they could have been you. P.S. Shout out to Defiant Wheels and Glen!

@@LateGrabber I dont think iv ever met you

[@cooldip45]

I think Jeff is right. People have an idea of how skating should look and when it doesn't look the way they want it to then they'll hate. Personally i like that skinny sort of nerdy rocker emo haired skate style that jeff has. Also his tricks are gnarly techy and clean.

[@sixtystixs]

[@FATMOUTH-zm5zo]

Bro Lamont I want to tell you it's really awesome you had Jeff on your podcast because when all is said and done he's the most realistic representation of what skateboarding is all about at heart also representing where I live east Coast Jersey baby Love park bubba spark...I was able to talk to Jeff on Instagram and he liked something i posted and it made my whole 15 years of skateboarding that he took the time to actually talk to me bro...let the haters hate because Jeff has nothing but love in his heart man 💞 it's a beautiful thing not only that the dude rips on a skateboard 🛹 balls of steel. Godbless both of yous in Christ Jesus of Nazareth. Thanks for show casing a representation of what Jersey east Coast and in store what's supposed to be skateboarding is about.... thanks again Jeff and Lamont for being real and true not fake and fake news 😂

Many blessings are coming your way. The way you guys just speak the truth is so motivating and encouraging to just keep pushing 🤘🏽

[@bobDotJS]

I would never leave hate comments because that's just fucked, but Jeff did take some time to grow on me because of the style of hardflips and inward heelflips, and the tendency to time flip tricks to land at the same time instead of catching. I quickly came to respect him but skate culture drills style into your head pretty hard and that style of tricks isn't something we're conditioned to appreciate. Same thing with helmets really. It's good to protect your head but we all have some deep aversion to them.

Lamont, Jeff, Great video y'all, felt like I was there! Jeff is just a humble humble dope fkin dude and now I just have even more respect for the guy now. Deadly honest guy. Serious props. Talkin bout the whole virgin thing of course. I definitely wish I woulda waited longer to lose my virginity or at least waited for a better situation, better girl to lose it to haha but yea lost mine at 17. All I cared about was skateboarding and cars til I got into drugs and that led me to lose my virginity. I'm clean now tho so lit. But anyway Lamont you're a great interviewer and you're just a funny dude, I was laughing with you multiple times in the video lol. Definitely need more podcasts bro! And Jeff we've actually had a small conversation on Instagram DM cuz I be defending you from haters in your comments and I put something on my story regarding the hate you get. That's how our convo started. And just that makes me feel like really fucking inspired cuz you're someone I look up to because you are that black sheep of the skate world right now but you still manage to keep your heart and mind open to just random strangers like me that support you. Like I'm tryna be in your position at some point in my life before I die lmao. Like fr. Jeff is just doing great things with his influence because he's genuinely a great dude. Like I don't even have to meet you to know that. It's just pure vibes. But like I said maybe one day we'll meet if I really get on my shit in life. Definitely more of the podcasts Lamont. Just wanna give both of y'all the props y'all deserve. I seen ppl hate on Lamont's music but I got a song in my Playlist RN! Like bro haters are just so wack. Keep it up guys. Pure love. ❤

[@jeffwonsong]

Thanks man! Means a lot! Hopefully we do get to meet one day, glad you’re vibing with the podcast 🙌

17:31 Just for the record; I met Nyjah over the summer, got a picture with him, and told him he was my favourite skater and the entire time he didn’t make eye contact with me let alone say anything.

[@recession81]

He does that to alot of people

[@skateboard446]

@@recession81 what a ducky

[@Sellbow]

Its a combination of factors, as is the case often times in life when dealing with people. In his case, the skate community didn't understand how to appreciate his skating, he came up through the internet, and to be honest he never made an attempt to refine his skating after dealing with the criticism. I think if started catching some tricks with height and style in a traditional form he would be extra appreciated for the bizarre spazzy tricks he does than he already is

[@NW_ADV]

I think Jeff road map would be: to build up his body. Strength training ( be more explosive) Smile more( less blank stare) be more expressive in body language ( confidence) Grow some facial hair ( add some edge) Brands sponsors for marketability. Skill, style and personality . He has the skill just needs to work on style and personality in my opinion. Andy Anderson out there but he really shines with personality. You got this Jeff

[@freehammerskateboarding488]

Should never have gotten so much hate. Jeff skates like no one else.

[@jeffwonsong]

[@DustinLegg]

Love the podcast. I've been watching jeffwonsong for yeaaaars. In my opinion, all the hate has been generated from a place of jealousy, and also Jeff's style is not traditionally what we think about when we think about pro skaters. The crazy tricks that he throws are so crazy that sometimes they suffer in style. When you do a quad flip down a set, there's no way your gonna be able to backfoot catch and bone that shit out. People have wayyy to high expectations. Amazing skaters both of you.

[@AnonymousPersonAP]

Come on, y'all have to be self aware. One of the main reason people are hating truthfully is because is his style of skating. He looks like he is about to fall down at 95% of the time he rides. He also doesn't catch most of his flip tricks, and doesn't have crazy pop to them either. Which i feel makes other skaters think they are better, not like it , etc. It's dumb for sure, cause dude can throw down and does some insane stuff and can pop and catch just alot of the tricks posted are the crazy flip tricks. When i first saw him skate i saw all of what i mentioned, still do, but i have grown to like it because its so sketchy and exciting. Yall have to stop think people without follwers, videos, or private profiles are beneath you or says anything about them though. Yall have alot of good stuff here , sprinkled in with nonsense, but that is what happens when you try and generalize any group of people.
