    you're right about that, but since I can never ever do some of the tricks they do or the way they approach spots I don't really care much about the way someone skates or dresses. and imo only innout and kanen look alike, and kanen does things even innout will never be able to do.

    like SG said, they all have the same style and most times the same character model. theres nothing about them that says who they are besides the name tag. the biggest problem though, is that they praise themselves so much. they have never stood on their own footage but rather on giving themselves all these accolades. i mean look at their youtube page, they named it that to trick people into thinking they had something to do with the game, and to tell you the truth, thats very similar to what that albert kid is doing.

    you're kinda right, I agree with you that they shove feathers up their own asses alot. But they did represent the "skate community" for a couple of years, didn't they? NO at least easkatetv did. IN HIS EYES

    thats the thing, they've never represented the community. of all the truly influential people from this community, they are the only ones who have tricked people into liking them. people like Demz have never had to claim to be someone else to get noticed, thats why his name gets used in other peoples tags on youtube, because he really has had an effect on skate. but they use manipulation to get people to like their stuff.

    I would put Demz, Magic, DJ Adam, Pawn and a few others ahead of anyone on BKS as far as being influential. Even Clay I think came up with the mid trick switch stance glitch haha

    besides southy is far better with the stix than Kanen in my eyes

    can't deny that. But they did represent what was realistic for many people I think. I mean Demz and all those other guys are influential and all, but I personally have never seen them like kanen or anyone else from bks, because I was just more into the realistic stuff.. It's true that they're arrogant pricks, but I don't really care, because imo they pushed realistic skating, without kanen or innout, I would've never thought of popovers or dub grinds like smith-feebs.. I'm not saying they were the first ones to do that stuff, but for many people like me, they were the first ones to show.

    thats the thing, they've never represented the community. of all the truly influential people from this community, they are the only ones who have tricked people into liking them. people like Demz have never had to claim to be someone else to get noticed, thats why his name gets used in other peoples tags on youtube, because he really has had an effect on skate. but they use manipulation to get people to like their stuff.
    did they ever say they represented the skate community like albert does? I've never seen them do that. (I started following them just before s2 came out so I might've missed some things in the early days.) I don't see the fact that they tricked people into liking their stuff.. I saw a couple of montages of them and I loved 'em, I never connected them to ea or black box..

    Whatever happened to DJAdam? And what Southie does is almost not fair, he could probably do one continuously for a video and I'd be entertained yet jealous of him being able to do it. Plus VHS is so much better than ABD in my eyes for that simple point that has been brought up that it's almost the same parts in ABD. Which ironically gives it an appropriate name.

    if it wasnt for linny's s1 videos and s2 solos at the beginning, half the people making videos now would not play skate the way they do now.

    Hahahahahahahah
    Now i love a good joke! And that was Great Thanks.

    Video was ok. Double grinds in S1 ain't really all that hard, getting them to look good and not squashed auto-lock looking, well that takes skills haha..

    As for the rest of bickering, it's just the good old days of EA returned yay!

    kanens name gets used in tags aswell, excessively. they dont use manipulation either, i understand if its not the type of fakeskating you enjoy, and maybe to you they didnt affect fakeskating,but thts your opinion. i love watching it aswell as many other people. and its fine tht some people like this and some people like that and whatever, the community shouldnt have any conflicts over mere preferences. its a dead end argument, it boils down to opinion.
