[@nyeeeeeee9346]

i dont really care what people do, but i cant stand skating in expensive clothes because skateboarding is quite possibly the most destructive thing you can do to a set of expensive clothes

[@GraveyardLurker]

How much is too expensive

[@Miguel-jj3vf]

@@GraveyardLurker anything above $100.

[@Bubeeer]

500 or more

[@audiosandedits2894]

Me and my brother both skateboard and he was skate it in Air Forces while I was in vans

[@nyeeeeeee9346]

@@GraveyardLurker it depends on how much you earn absolutely, but i wouldnt personally skate in any shoes above... idk 80-90 dollars unless i know its going to last a long time

[@usmc1379]

Tiny wheels were definitely more preferred in the 90's. I remember when they started getting larger and thinking it looked stupid. Little did I know it gave you better pop having your board higher off the ground...

[@tsb4576]

i never thought of that. i always just thought bigger wheels made it easier to go over small pebbles but adds more weight making it harder go in the air

[@daveanderson9506]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂🎉

[@landis277]

4:28 there’s nothing wrong with customizing your grip even tho everyone does it it just shows that everyone is unique with their designs it shouldn’t even be a trend

[@mally5972]

how is being quickfooted a bad trend if you can land aton of dope tricks back to back then congrats it means you prolly got skill

[@TurtleNeck_]

if u do it too much it kinda looks ridiculous and stupid like ur hopping on ur board like a damn child who drank too much juice boxes or something but if u do it in a moderate amount its really dope

[@jojoversus1100]

yeah, he's talkin about people just literally stepping in circles & sh*t

[@BDA1137]

Ikr, idk why people say it’s bad

[@1776AxlePowerDM]

I don't get the skate culture these days. They claim everything is stupid. They watch a video of someone with quick feet and get mad because they can't do the same. Skaters are a bunch of whining babies these days. Sad to see how it changed so much.

[@jamesstewart7784]

@@1776AxlePowerDM I dont skate but as an outsider watching this vid, it makes it feel like skate culture is absolutely insufferable. Like it feels like they just hate everything to the point where even doing tricks is bad.

[@errorsans2474]

I mean I don't see quick footing as a bad thing... it can be a bit of a show off depending on certain things I understand that but-. It's honestly just another way of showing "Hey I'm a good skater not a poser claiming I am" Random note: Just got a skateboard yay

[@usmc1379]

As a 90's skater having large pants was part of the "skater" look. Tugging both pant legs up a bit before a trick always felt like it looked cool to me also! Then Jenco made their famous "elephant legs" with 50 inch bottoms and that was the beginning of the end!

[@LastDays7]

Haha Jenco. Forgot about that brand. That was definitely taking it too far!

[@beautifulagonization]

It hurts to see people break board when I need a new one

[@garlickytoes]

Yeah it annoys me so much cuz like I can’t afford one for myself and seeing ppl js destroy it makes me mad

[@Perryprime1999]

[@LastDays7]

As a 90s and early 2000s skater the trends I didn't see coming: #1. The influx of pop and jock brands expanding their habitation ($$$) into skateboarding culture. #2. The mainstream acceptance of something that was considered rebellious and misunderstood.

[@lilweevus751]

What pisses me off the most is that Sketchers are trying to market as somewhat of a skate shoe, like NikeSB for instance is one of the best skate shoe brands, but they started off with running shoes (i think) and everyone looked at them with concern when they were getting into skateboarding, but SKETCHERS?! Never, what gave me this idea was a TV ad for sketchers of a kid riding a skateboard. IM TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW IF SKETCHERS MAKES MARKET FOR A SKATE SHOE BRAND, I WILL EVAPORATE INTO SAND

[@idmhead0160]

You're going to get worked up over that? The world has a lot bigger problems

[@hentaifansandpfpusermustdi7021]

@@lilweevus751 I mean, YOU'RE RIGHT. I thought Sketcher sell skate shoes because their shops look likes Vans but instead they sells running shoes only wtf...

[@LastDays7]

Yet that's how people felt about Nike's introduction... It was a brand for "posers" back then. Your mixed feeling about Sketcher is my moment with Nike.

[@joshdavidson854]

I still refuse to wear them !! Nike was for jocks and New Balance were shoes only dads and grandpa's wore. ​@LastDays7

[@AmputeeAdele]

In fairness, a shoelace belt is better than ur trouser falling down while skating lol 😆

[@DerFliegendeMocca]

i still, to this day, think rodney mullens freestyle and later slow but technical street skating is literally the best.

[@gigglerock]

i still use shoelace belts and used it way before i started skateboarding its just practical

[@slitzmcduse]

Not to forget the reason skaters don't associate with designer is because we are the underground we don't want to be on top

[@thestick9182]

Never really thought about the dunks but now that I searched it. The base colors are over $100. That’s wild.

[@willegym]

Nice vid bro !

[@Odyssey-ot6nb]

I love how it’s basically hate against any skate technique or style that goes mainstream.

[@shawnannul]

I was definitely a small wheel skater back in the 00's. I was just too poor to buy new wheels, so I would skate until they literally fell off!

[@LastDays7]

Yes!

[@lokorkitsune4931]

Legit

[@capybaragod5732]

Love your videos your the reason I started skateing

[@perraputta4743]

baggy jeans are dope

[@hawkwind769]

89 to 96 was my hay day 🤣 I rode 38mm wheels for a min... Pressure flipping baggy pants wearing😀

[@usmc1379]

It wasn't mentioned as I thought it would be but as a 90's kid myself did you also wear a chain wallet? It was huge among skateboarders where I grew up.

[@LastDays7]

@@usmc1379 That was a big trend when I skating in the 90s and early 2000s. Some people swapped the chains for industrial sizes!

I still remember my poor skateboard after I saw the board smashing part of yeah right!

[@lordxpotato8705]

For a bit I went through a faze were I would ONLY skate free style but I just kind do what I like now

[@nicktrbl3515]

I do respect the effort you're putting into making the videos! But most of the things you're mentioned are just part of the culture... Not trends! I'm not trying to hate!! Would love to see you skating... I do like this video, but I will press the unlike button... No bad feelings keep making them! 🤘

[@goofygam3z327]

i was thinking the same thing pre much all of these are skating culture and i don’t think they are trends like freestyle for example, that’s not a trend it’s a way of skateboarding and has always been accepted in skating i do agree on 1 or 2 of these because they were at one point a trend but most of them just became culture still no hat on the vid just my opinion

[@landis277]

@Nick TRBL exactly I agree

[@idmhead0160]

The kid at 2:41 is hilarious. So pissed, he screwed himself over

[@LastDays7]

5:19 This is super exaggerated. I had one pair that was 40x40 cut off to 32L but that was extreme. Most of my friends had loose pants for functionality and to separate yourself from the jocks.

I used to wear a shoe lace belt cause I was broke 😭

[@julianduzbmx]

i wear baggy pants or reg fit to bmx. its comfortable, i hate shorts, and falling on them isnt bad at all. also shinning yourself with a pedal is a pain nobody should have to experience

[@LastDays7]

What creates the obsession with skateboarding trends? It was easier to be unique pre-Facebook and KZbin because the exposure was limited to magazines and video (skateboarding wasn't mainstream yet)... The unavoidable influence of social media I guess. It's a good reminder to get out and enjoy life and don't miss out on the special moments.

[@notpark3r704]

I feel like the people who over due fast feet are the people who spammed their controller in the Skate series games

[@knowinglack]

8:12 i love that park it’s so sick. it’s in eugene

[@bialek.online]

dude, if you wanna concisely covey the complexity of a concept of “a Spot’’, compare it to a commonly comprehended one, like a church (synagogue, mosque etc) tldr: “Sir, what is a spot?” “it’s like a church for skaters, where miracles happen”

[@hungry384widower5]

you love to see you're own park in these vids

[@ethanalbert7633]

If I remember correctly I believe there was a period when people would skate wearing southpole, fubu and ecko unlimited... that was pretty fricken cringy.

[@NYC735]

Honestly where I live there’s only one skatepark in town and the little kids love to be on the ramps which is super annoying

Ok look, had no clue a shoe lace belt was a trend, just did it cause it’s more comfortable then an actual belt while skating😂

[@doctorstrainlove6318]

Holy fuck i never thought i would see the resergence of phat pants, bowl cuts & chunky sneakers like those big osiris juntt

[@mnmldev8636]

You wear shoe lace belt because you can tie your belt with precision. Where as a normal belt you only have 5 or 6 holes to choose from. Too loose, or too tight, and its uncomfortable to skate in. They do have Web Belts, but a lace is free.

[@denvisemand949]

It not the sneakerheads that are bidding up the price. Its the resellers

[@duanebrown2157]

Small wheels were the best

[@3DEditor]

Freestyle isn't a trend, it never was. It's always been part of skateboarding, it's the origins of skating. Although it died off for a majority starting in the early 1990s, few who Freestyled like myself during the 1980s into the early 1990s, we still Freestyled ocassionally after it went under ground. It started making a slow comeback in the early 2000s, getting a strong following in the mid 2010s.

[@rubenlopez4341]

Kids at my school who skate usually wear Pro Club hoodies and sweatpants and either wear Vans,Adidas superstars or Nike Air Forces.

Pick a team.

[@dr_small8512]

So I'm just a beginner and I don't know much about skating, do u think it would be fine to get a non-branded 30 dollar Walmart skateboard to start of and get a real one once I get decent or get a real board and stick with that

[@idmhead0160]

Depending on how much money you have, I would look at Mini Logo. They are cheaper than other boards, but, still quality. I think Braille makes a board that is sold at Walmart and is supposed to be of higher quality. There may be another brand also. Never tried a Walmart board, but, heard they are garbage, don't roll, and break immediately.

[@dr_small8512]

@@idmhead0160 oh ok, thanks for the info appreciate it

[@idmhead0160]

@@dr_small8512 Mini Logo won't be as cheap as a Walmart board, but, it will be a real board that won't immediately break. Basically, it's Powell Peralta under a different name and cheaper. Trucks are $30 vs $50+. Boards are $40 instead of $50+ or more. Bearings are $10 versus $20+. Wheels are $20 versus $40. Basically, you could build a complete for around $100 rather than $150

If that's all you can get then go for it. The fact youre even considering any deck is the 1st step. You can still learn to skate. Honestly starting on a board that crappy will have you killing it when you get a good deck. I'm in love with chocolate decks. 🍫

Big clothes r just better. They make most clips look a lot better and there comfy but it. All comes down to preference

[@The-Man-On-The-Mountain]

Destroying on purpose a new pair of shoes. I never did that but I remember some friends that when they got new shoes they were like "hey dude, step on them. More, more.". And dragging them on the floor. They used to do the same with tshirts, pants, everything. It was the peak of grunge. It's probably one of the most stupid trends ever. I am talking before tik tok, of course. That sht is a whole new level.

[@joshuaanothereraseddad]

[@jacobfoster9185]

Does anybody know what the name of the following was? Had a skateboard deck except larger like a mini snowboard and 2 rolls of skate wheels bowed in the middle so that both rows of wheels looked like half of the geometric shape called an Ellipse !? PLLLEEASSE I have been looking for one for years ! Used to be in most skate shops and I'm certain I could find one if I knew what it was called ! However, despite my description being very accurate it isn't the kind of description that lends itself to a Google search. The experience of riding one was akin to snowboarding or surfing except on the street.

To the bad trend of breaking boards. It will be a year ago (November 2021) I broke my board cuz I wasn't in the mood. I had rough day and went skate alone and didn't stay calm and just smash my board in half. lmao If I'm not in the mood I'll just cruise around lessons learned since I'm student and don't have much money :d Do you have any similar story?
