Assumptions...

August 1, 2008 | Skip To The Comments (5)

For some weird reason, lots of people assume I hate Ryan Sheckler. I think there's this thing that if you're some dude in the "core" industry or whatever, you're supposed to hate on Ryan. I didn't get that memo... must've missed it. He's always been pretty cool to me and I'm always impressed when I see him skate, I know that much. First try 360 flip over a large gap from today's X Games Street finals:

    I'm glad you take the high road on this. Haters can say all they want, but Sheckler really is the best contest skater ever. He may not have the street cred of guys who don't compete, but he's got everything else; girls, money, fame, celebrity, and x-games gold (x 2). I guess when you're just a street skater, with no girl, no money, and no future...then it's easy to hate someone successful like him, but it's kinda stupid.
