We’re people nitpicking this hard when Alex Olson clearly clipped on the regular lengthwise ollie?

[close]

he didn’t clip he just went beside it

[close]

So even fucking worse than clipping lol, he didn’t even ollie over the fucking thing. I hate Alex Olson, what a fucking chump. Didn’t TJ kickflip a table lengthwise?? Eat shit AO

[close]

I don’t understand this and feel like I missed some expose.  When rewatched, it appears he’s over the table in the part and he has no shadow on the ground so the table is blocking it.   It happens so fast that I never questioned it before and I still don’t really see the complaints now

Ty messing around with forced perspective/camera tricks/post production/spike Jonze

It's not like he ended a 10 minute epic with a simple 50-50. He's fine.

Fuck, I stand corrected. Maybe he bussup'd even harder the first time then. Tyshawn laughing it off in the comments, so it counts.

perspective of what? going beside the table?

[doomstation55]

I wanted to see if there were any sus looking angles on Diego’s kf long ways where he went kinda toward to the side but it looks clean. That’s impressive.

I think it's weird that thrasher put that switch Ollie on the cover because i assume he didn't land it that day since they show that clip of him eating shit in the same outfit on the cover and the make he's wearing a different fit. So he must have  went back to get it anpther day and thrasher ran a photo of a non make on the cover which theyve said they never do. Thrasher brags about only running makes in the mag. That's the real controversy to me. I actually think skatin picnic tables the long way is kinda dumb

[close]

From the clips in the teaser it looks like there were at least three different days he was trying it. Could see him sticking it both days but the first one maybe he bussuped or something?

If you're looking for controversy look into the T-Funk cover. There's just no way in hell he did that one twice... or maybe he did? Still need to watch the mini-doc.

Edit: Just remembered T-Funk's clip and cover are most likely same day it's just the camera angles that don't line up.

The cover rarely is the actual make. The rule is only that the trick has to be landed, doesn't matter if it's on the same day or whatever.

Isn't the rule that the photo (especially a cover) has to be at least from the same session? (or at least maintain the illusion by wearing the same outfit)? Otherwise it's just unequivocally a photo of a bail, isn't it? Must be a good story behind this mystery...I wonder if Thrasher ran the cover before the make. The plot thickens...

(anyone else notice the sneaky edit in the bsnb that cuts TJ waving the pedestrians away with the make. Bit of Powell magic with that one too, which I liked).

UPDATE: Actually just watched that bsnb and it's just a jump cut, but same attempt/the make, that threw me off.

[straight fucking edge]

tyshawn is one of those that you can't just watch and enjoy in peace

[Dwyck]

No, the photo does not have to be from the same session as the video. The trick just has to be landed before publication

[kook1234]

Me and the boys find it more impressive he did it wearing jeans

No way man, Kenny cleared those tables clean from flat. Your move, Tyshawn, I want to see switch oliie two stacked tables. JK style is fine off a bump. Let’s go (I actually think he could).

in my opinion, no. youre trying to represent a specific trick in the best way possible, even if it means the actual make is not the photo that runs in the end. usually photos that were bailed but actually landed on the board will look pretty natural.
only thing i dont really appreciate is running a photo with a super tweaked or popped trick and in the footage you can tell it wasnt even similar to the make.
 magazines running only lands is a myth that only people who never met an actual photographer believe.

[backfliptofiftyfifty]

People arguing against the nollie flip is fucking stupid imo. The shifty made it look so much cooler. No one has ever nollie flipped that high.

The switch ollie was disappointing however. Idk why the footy they used in his part is different from the thrasher cover (he's wearing a completely different outfit). In the cover it looks like he clears it considering how high he is above the table. Maybe the filming made it look bad but in the part he 100% would have clipped it if he went straight on. Sucks cause you definitely know he could clear the table. Can't wait for him to switch flip it the long way in a couple years from now.

[Allen.]

Is he really wearing a different outfit on the cover? Big if true

[kook1234]

What would Andrew Reynolds do?

One of:

• not vote in the 2016 election
• buy a house with thps money to sell it at a loss less than a decade later
• have the child prodigy hes invested the last 5+ years into leave his team
• frontside flip or some ledge line which will have the slap forums going nutz

his first cover was sus too. landed on the curb in the footy. no reason to cut corners if you already got it like that

Looking at that cover, he's def going over the side as well. He's not going straight over the middle. Not a chance.

So, different board, different outfit, different time....and is that a different table? Interesting. I’m sure that lots of photos from clips aren’t the specific make, but I didn’t expect this many differences. Does seem controversial. Kinda cool too in a zero fucks kinda way. That is a great photo.
