i like this thread alot and i like the people in it. ive been around for a very very long time, back when this place was a twinkle in a hobo eye and have to say most of the people who inspired me still do. like everyone demz has played a big part in my skate experience, i didnt understand his videos until talking to him and it opened my mind to the world of animations. i feel like i was cruising and demz showed me kickflips. magic is another big influence as he essentially seems to be my mirror half and this partnership that has started hoodlum, and that has also kicked off the e-Careers of many.

sss and dp where also quite an influence in that they represent an idea that i feel the best teams on here adapt to, they have become a fixture in this culture. this is really hard to right down in full cause i have so much to say but ill basically break it down to a sentence and a name
Jack: you are great and funny and im glad i know you

Robley: i have a great deal of respect for you and hope to one day own a condo with you, and all woman condo in which dress up as ugly ladies and pretend to be our male cousins.

Mack: youre black and that is good enough for me

Bullet: youre one of the best people hands down. period blood.

Skatehead: only person who can make the gonz style work, and youre my friend

heshfield: holy shit you are my hero style and graphic work you are a man!

Permy: youre gay and youre dad hate the internet i love you!

um too many people to name damn it skate for introducing me to too many nice people all the others dont feel slighted i love you all in the gayest way possible. and thank you to the people i have touched along the way, without you not pressing charges i would be locked away.
