i don't think its about alva and the likes trying to make themselves look cool as its more that they are letting all the little groms out there know where skating was born and the people that made it happen.
alva is still the skate punk he's always been... i had the pleasure of meeting him at premiere and he is def a down to earth guy... he even took the time out to skate the local bowl with everyone else.

'chlorine' fucking RULES
Right there in that dvd is the heart of skateboarding...as tank said above:
" those little skate punks are the new chavs...totally no respect..."
Thats why I don;t go to skateparks any more...it just depresses me to watch some 14 year old kid try a double kickflip down 10 stairs just to impress his friends...
skate for yourself.
skate or die.

you complaining now about kids learning kickflips down stairs
=
Old guys complaining back in the day that you were learning how to ollie instead of riding a pool.
- gruntt0
the only kids i complain about are the ones that are trying to learn kick-flips when they haven't even really got a solid ollie down yet.

yeah, and ever since the Dogtown and Zboys Doc, all the old 40+ guys are back, on 10" wide boards and bitching about the street course.
"dude those guys could never carve up this shit"

(Jun 6 05, 11:53)if by fun you mean frustration, pain, fear, and an occasional triumph of being satistied with the feel of a grind, then yes.
- markd0
fun is all I have left with skateboarding.
Not sure about others but my body started dieing slowly after 25. I just forget about the trickes I USED to do and have fun with what I CAN do.
