"not trying to change skateboarding" reminds me of some go-to line politicians like to use. Like when McCain thought if he could just keep saying "maverick" over and over people wouldn't call him on some of his bullshit.
SLAP has now adopted this pseudo-political mentality where you can't say certain things, and anytime someone calls you out on something you just repeate your go-to line.

SLAPMAJORITY: "dude he's not trying to change skateboarding"
I sort of have a feeling that none of the people involved in the making of Fully Flared ever wanted to 'change skateboarding', there's a huge irony in that they started to feel major pressure to push the limit, and that a fair chunk if not most of that pressure came from what was being said on the slap message boards. Maybe if there was average or mediocre hype about it on here, there would be more night NYC footage from popps and less slo-mo everywhere else.
But, who am I kidding, its Lakai. I hope the hype about crailtap on here is fading with those guys, because they're in for the same shit with the upcoming chocolate video.
