2014 predictions

[AdrianLopez]

No PlanB video. It will never come out, never!

Back in the 80's, going years and years without releasing footage on a tape would have erased you from the mind of most kids, these days the riders can just tweet and instagram pictures of their freakin cars or food to stay relevant. Fuck this!

I demand my PlanB video!

(except for the Sheckler part which has been posted on Slap this year, included him backside fliiping El Toro)

[Endless Toedrag]

2014: Figgy starts a team with Dickson and provost...team fizzles out the same year due to overdoses on mescaline, and art direction gone awry.

Nyjah will try even harder for SOTY - cause it's pretty obvious how badly he wants that.

[Cajungly]

The last three years nyjah's dad has been training hard. He will not release any footage only to Rob Dyrdek himself. Rob sits back in his chair and smiles. Street league 23 is coming around the corner all the skateboard athletes are there nyjah starts getting hot n heavy and he sees a familiar figure do a switch back tail in the distance. Oh that's just bastien he thinks to
Himself. He does a double take as the figure approaches.. Could it be. It's Nyah's fucking dad KILLING IT!!!!!!FUCK YEA NYJAS DADdd!!!!  That kickass song from grind about stealing the sun from the sky comes on and they shred nyjah's dad wins real good and rides away holding hands with chad Fernandez fuck yea chad Fernandez

[360 frip]

Nijah will get Thrasher face tats.

Lenny Kirk will return as Jesus 2.

SLAP will keep the hate alive...

[D.B. Cooper]

Jereme Rogers sets up Amateur Hour Apparel under the Selfish Umbrella

The high 5's after a land will become just as important to film as the trick being done

I totally agree with whoever said there will be a further polarization between skaters and $katers.  

People will continue to use thousands of dollars worth of film equipment to mimic the effects of shooting on VHS tapes. 

Hate! will probably keep on hating.  Hopefully.  

[AdrianLopez]

As Cole is already on their list and did a comercial for them, half the DC skaters will be sponsored by BeatsByDre in no time!

[PsychOut]

someone from $LAVE will go pro
someone from the vans video will be SOTY (hopefully Dollin)
2 pro's will fight with each other
instagram fights between pros/ams will increase
Tony Cervantes will go pro
Dane Burman will get a pro shoe on fallen
Dennis Durrant will get hooked up finally maybe by cliche and may have a board by September-December
Tommy Fynn will go pro for stereo
Sheckler will have a Thrasher cover
Jake Duncombe will ride for Cons

[Pedro]

Pat Burke turn pro.
That's all I need in 2014

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

Some kid is going to have a gruesome injury skating one of those double rails people are skating  when a limb gets stuck in between them

[dillanharp]

Nyjah will try even harder for SOTY - cause it's pretty obvious how badly he wants that.

You don't think he's going to go with the "less is more" approach this time? I think he learned a little something these last 2 years.

[SHARPSHOOTER]

2014 - Year of Naked Skateboarding?

[Andrew]

following the success of the filmer filming nobody in that one nyjah line, companies will start orchestrating skits/scenes/hijinx in the background of tricks for the viewers. soon, all skate tricks will become choreographed one act plays

[Gnarly Brown]

Koston comes out officially as a scientologist- tarnishes his reputation
Skateboarding DVDs officially become a dead medium, skate world continues to be saturated with amazing but forgettable internet footage
Threat goes out of business, baker picks up Forrest Edwards
Mystery goes out of business
The meaning of SOTY continues to depreciate in value
Zered Bassett and Eli reed release footage, the world rejoices
Mark Suciu continues to reign supreme in the streets
Fucking Awesome actually does something
Nyjah does something so unbelievably gnarly not even slap can find a reason to hate on it

[Matze]

Lotto will get into the skate shoe game, with indoor soccer  shoes like adidas.

Yeah, but that was a different time, and now Chocolate has a heavy SJ connection and Daryl has a pretty well established name. Habitat's pro roster is pretty full, and Daryl's skating kind of reminds me of the skating direction Chocolate is heading in. Its a total left field prediction, but isn't that part of the thread? If it does somehow happen (an outside chance) I'll be able to say I predicted it.

[dillanharp]

Enjoi loses a few more riders, goes full mall status.

[cletus the slack jawed yokel]
