Is Jerry gay?

Are you referring to Jerry Hsu?

There was a video where he "supposedly" came out of the closet and admitted to being gay. Not sure if he was trolling or not though. I can find the video if you want..

[Goon_Panda]

I meant Hsu. I've heard rumors and shit, I was just curious.

Why are you guys bashing this thread? I think it's a good initiative since obviously some people on here don't skate. Scaring them off can't be a good thing; I mean, wouldn't it feel better to actually help them understand and appreciate skateboarding and perhaps even encourage them to start doing it?

Could someone explain to me what pricepoint boards/products are? Came across the term on the Slap forum but I couldn't tell what it was.

i think this would be a good thread if some common sense is used,cause like you said not everyone here has that knowledge.
moose's questions are a good example,goon..sorry but asking if Jerry Hsu is gay isn't.
i believe pricepoint products are stuff like blanks,shop decks,etc.

Typically M7's explanation is right, no pro name means no royalties, or less colors are used so they cost less, but always be wary. Some companies use chinese wood for their price points, and canadian wood for the legit boards, so be mindful that sometimes you're really sacrificing the quality of your board for a few bucks.

I'm pretty sure these are jokes but do any of these terms actually exist in skateboarding: raver babies, beer cats, goth juggler, ringworm tinkletoes, tuba tuva, whatgrass wamper, and zodiac boofer. All terms on this video:

I have another question:
What is the reason for removing the 'lids' on bearings? I've been skating for about 10 years and never done it, have I been missing out?
