Q/A

Would like to record an audio post so feel free to ask questions in the comments:

I’m a bit under the weather so no massive productions until I’m healed

Comments

Yes, can you please review Nicg200 Instagram?

Patricio Farmer Gonzalez

come skate oakland you would enjoy

Leo Isaac

Do you fuck with egg shaped boards

Victoria

Test the Andy Anderson deck lmao

Spey s

You drink a lot of caffeinated drinks but just seen you with a Yerba for the first time. My favorite thing to do is drink one of those and watch my favorite videos, cause that drink has a certain kick to it that gets me extra excited/inspired on whatever I’m checking out. If I had a YouTube account talking about skating like you, I would probably always be drinking them. How’d you like it 😂

Jimi Wilson

real mfs hang up boards they already skated

Douglas Rorrison

Opinion on wall boards, some of my homies think it’s dumb af and deletes the point of a board, others see the art in it and the limited time a graphic hangs around before they all get tore up.

Jules

Did you watch the new jackass? If so, how was it and if not do you plan to watch it

zacho

brett jochum

shaun

What do you think of Steven Fernandez and do you think if he hadn't quit he would have come a long way in skateboarding (would have a career).

Spey s

Hey, gifted hater. I feel like T Funk used to skate really different before Rowan got on Baker. Ever since Rowan came on the scene, I feel like T Funk took on that same grimey look and started skating like Rowan in a way by having that super loose, sketchy surfer type style instead of progressing the clean and solid style I watched him show in Skate Tank part 3 of 3. The skating he did in the Skate Tank 3 video is a style i feel he's abandoned long ago in favor of the rugged, loose surfer boy style that Rowan is so known for. I feel like T Funk was greatly influenced and changed his style according to that influence. I wasn't a fan of that style change, personally. Have you noticed this with T Funk? I suppose this is an extended thought to your already made Elijah Berle video

Steven

how’d you meet nelly / how’d she get on limo

Henry Bagdasar

Can you review ‘Billy Trick’ by Will Miles

My Name Is Alfie

What is you honest opinion on the direction that the skating culture is going altogether. There is a lot of cool shit still happening and as always there is a lot of whack shit tryin be apart of the culture. What are you excited about and what are you not to stoked on for the future?

Morgasm

Opinion on the last Dropping Podcast video? I don't think theres much to say, but i do find it weird how they mention not wanting to feed more into "drama" and yet use your picture as the thumbnail.

Computer Tree

No bubble. The strongest will survive.

robotbrian

i was just pondering this earlier today: what exactly is up with fa turning vincent touzery pro 2 years ago but there being absolutely 0 footage of him since then. its not like fa hasnt been putting out videos

Leo Gynther

Should people be allowed to use “legal street spots” in video parts like LA courthouse or even DIY spot footy?

max lesniak

Ever been approached by a brand or another channel to work together since u started ur channel? What people/companies?

max lesniak

would love to see that

spitting_goblin

Thoughts on Jeff Dechesare

Braylon

Do you think 917 can make a come back

Tiarnan Gardiner

Slap! Based on their lack of IG activity and having not released new decks in a long time

Davis Campbell

Oh damn that’s crazy isle is so cool. where did you hear this rumour

zacho

Christ air. Best trick in skating?

grandma2

Should have added that this is in response to rumour that Isle is over

Davis Campbell

But I wouldn’t be surprised if they collabed with isle skateboards because they all mostly ride for the same two company’s

zacho

I’m also all for it but I don’t think they would make boards seeing as most of the people on drift ride for isle skateboards

zacho

What abec are your bearings?

spicy peter

Is the amount of companies starting up that supply hard goods sustainable? At what point does the game become so over saturated that there ends up being too many options and a bunch of companies shut down because no one can turn a profit? So many new companies have been started within the last two years and a lot of them are actually cool to the point where I no longer consistently support the same brands and I wonder if it’ll reach a point where only the big corporations can survive and we wind up in a similar position where there are only a handful of companies to pick from instead of the vast array we experience today.

Matt Picard

Do you think skateboarding hardgoods have reached a final point in evolution/engineering? Seems like there’s little room for further innovation in functional side of skateboarding equipment

sexyprostateexam

First pro you ever met

Alex Clayton

Have you ever broken a bone?

Alex Clayton

Will you ever do a 24 hour stream?

Alex Clayton

Yo also is it Corny to do the same trick in different stances in a video part (ie kickflip and fakie flip in the same video)

Benjamin Saunders

How do you warm up and warm down for skating?

Nicholas Kanakis

As an apparent hater of European skateboarding 😜what are your thoughts on the idea of Atlantic Drift becoming a board company? I’m all for it!

Davis Campbell

favorite music album ?

boylife

how do you feel about “ pay to skate “ skateparks?

nine beam

is there anything you can do to improve ur style or are you just stuck

skygate

Damn good to know that makes sense I’ve only skated the mids/high

Logan Jones

Half size down is perfect for me, however I do notice mid tops seem to be a little larger, and low tops feel a little tighter

1

Have you had issues with Last Resort sizing? I skated 2 pair, and found that a half size down was too big and full size down is too tight. Bummed because the shoes are so sick.

Logan Jones

can you talk about Evan hay as an influence? or just a general reflection on his content? I was a big fan of his stuff, so funny.

trip hazard

Cool things can’t thrive on Reddit Because cool people don’t use Reddit

Garrick Slings

Did all this turn into your dreamjob and do you think you could do this for many many more years?

Felix K.

I asked this already but would you consider posting videos you took off of YouTube for being too mean or edgy, like the Nak lotties video on here? Also advise on making skate friends I’m tired of skating curbs alone

Garrick Slings

do you think skaters not having instagram makes them more desirable (like jake johnson, max palmer, kevin rodrigues)

miss misery

who was your first fav pro?

spitting_goblin

favorite candybar? mine is wunderbar

spitting_goblin

do you listen to aphex twin and what do you think about him?

spitting_goblin

Do you read? And if so, what was the last book you read and what is your favorite book?

Gabriel Snyder

What board company would Monster ride for? I think she’d fit in quite nicely with the Jah at Disorder because they would welcome her chaotic energy with open arms

Val

Favourite Crash Bandicoot game?

Crash

How tall are you and who is your go-to skate friend!!

Donny

Do you read books?

nippleslover

Your take on wheelbases, why do all board companies do the small and super squirly 14” and what wb is on your special real shape? 14” wb sucks for taller skaters since the wb should ve wider the taller you are for obvious reasons, especially if you combine that with a smaller wb truck like indy or ace.

Bugglagg

favorite color?

paralelu 45

Why is the skateboarding subreddit so lame and full of beginners? Is it a symptom of niche reddit hobbyism? Is Slap the only way Core™ skaters can actually interact?

Badge Marquee

List of Wood Shops and companies who use them in case anyone’s curious!^^^ https://www.existskatestore.co.uk/blogs/news/2019-wood-shop-manufacturers

Danny Perez

Do you have a favorite wood shop? Personally I love BBS for the feel, not heavy, good pop, and not flimsy. Opinions on different technology boards? i.e. Flight Decks, Everslick, Impact Light, VX, and Powerply. Preference of dips or stains?

Danny Perez

Can you do any finger board tricks? Basically more finger board content is what I’m after sensai. The time has come

robotbrian

Let’s hear your rapid fire wit da ghost

honky

Hot take Japan is gonna b trendy this year

nabye.y

With the (relatively) recent popularity and growth of brands like FA/Hockey and the shift in styles of presentation to more experimental (the recent Aidan Mackey vid being a pretty good example of this, and maybe Bill Strobeck as a whole, if not on a video by video basis, since he is fairly consistent stylistically), do you think it presents an opportunity for less talented skaters to make a name for themselves via an interesting aesthetic or presentation? Or will talent and a fisheye always take precedence over anything new people feel like trying?

kingpin

I’ve heard you mention Evan Hay before, me and my buddy Eric loved his stuff. I was very sad when he stopped putting out videos and deleted everything he had already put out. I was just curious if he was an inspiration of sorts?

Elliot Rooney

Straight from 7-11 what’s the best Ice Tea drink ?

Emilianus

To what extent are content creators responsible for the actions of their followers

Zane Blake

are there any good techniques you've found for overcoming fear in skateboarding? you touched on this a little bit in your front crook vid, would be cool to hear any more insights you might have :) (get well soon hater <3)

angcient_rock

Not skate related but do you have a favourite movie?

Rhys

Top 10 skater’s that are black?

Kedrick Bryant

What do you think about splitting up contests like street league into more different events to give more different types of skaters a chance? Like having a rail section, ledge section, flat ground/game of skate and best run where you try to use the whole park.

Babel2GK

What's something outside of skating that makes you happy.

sosalistener

How has the fact that you have started making good money as a skate youtuber changed how you view yourself, the content you create, and your plans for future content?

Iriemon

do you think companies like frog making videos that have amazing skateboarding yet don’t take themselves seriously (e.g. recent Hayden Burns part and EvanFrankie video) has or will influence the way people think about skate videos and approaches to it? In wake of skateboardings recent explosion in popularity, it almost seems less cool to make overly serious, self important skate videos. You mentioned once that the “van” culture of skateboarding seems stupid and dated now, which I agree with. Is it cooler now to be less serious, or to not hold onto these “traditions” given that skateboarding is no longer seen as sort of rebellious or underground?

blue3

How much do you plan ahead for your ‘higher’ production videos where you talk in depth about some subject? do you kind of speak off the cuff, and sort of change and enhance a thought here and there and simply edit out the bad takes? or is it more of a scripted format. I ask because Im mostly impressed by you’re ability to coherently speak out your thoughts very well, and was wondering if that just comes naturally to you.

Adrian Allen

Gun to your head: Blind or Darkstar?

Barley
