Spey s
Test the Andy Anderson deck lmao

You drink a lot of caffeinated drinks but just seen you with a Yerba for the first time. My favorite thing to do is drink one of those and watch my favorite videos, cause that drink has a certain kick to it that gets me extra excited/inspired on whatever I’m checking out. If I had a YouTube account talking about skating like you, I would probably always be drinking them. How’d you like it 😂
Douglas Rorrison
real mfs hang up boards they already skated
Jules
Opinion on wall boards, some of my homies think it’s dumb af and deletes the point of a board, others see the art in it and the limited time a graphic hangs around before they all get tore up.
zacho
Did you watch the new jackass? If so, how was it and if not do you plan to watch it

What do you think of Steven Fernandez and do you think if he hadn't quit he would have come a long way in skateboarding (would have a career).
Steven
Hey, gifted hater. I feel like T Funk used to skate really different before Rowan got on Baker. Ever since Rowan came on the scene, I feel like T Funk took on that same grimey look and started skating like Rowan in a way by having that super loose, sketchy surfer type style instead of progressing the clean and solid style I watched him show in Skate Tank part 3 of 3. The skating he did in the Skate Tank 3 video is a style i feel he's abandoned long ago in favor of the rugged, loose surfer boy style that Rowan is so known for. I feel like T Funk was greatly influenced and changed his style according to that influence. I wasn't a fan of that style change, personally. Have you noticed this with T Funk? I suppose this is an extended thought to your already made Elijah Berle video

how’d you meet nelly / how’d she get on limo
My Name Is Alfie
Can you review ‘Billy Trick’ by Will Miles
Morgasm
What is you honest opinion on the direction that the skating culture is going altogether. There is a lot of cool shit still happening and as always there is a lot of whack shit tryin be apart of the culture. What are you excited about and what are you not to stoked on for the future?
Computer Tree
Opinion on the last Dropping Podcast video? I don't think theres much to say, but i do find it weird how they mention not wanting to feed more into "drama" and yet use your picture as the thumbnail.
robotbrian
No bubble. The strongest will survive.
Leo Gynther
i was just pondering this earlier today: what exactly is up with fa turning vincent touzery pro 2 years ago but there being absolutely 0 footage of him since then. its not like fa hasnt been putting out videos
max lesniak
Should people be allowed to use “legal street spots” in video parts like LA courthouse or even DIY spot footy?
max lesniak
Ever been approached by a brand or another channel to work together since u started ur channel? What people/companies?

Thoughts on Jeff Dechesare
Tiarnan Gardiner
Do you think 917 can make a come back
Davis Campbell
Slap! Based on their lack of IG activity and having not released new decks in a long time
zacho
Oh damn that’s crazy isle is so cool. where did you hear this rumour
grandma2
Christ air. Best trick in skating?
Davis Campbell
Should have added that this is in response to rumour that Isle is over
zacho
But I wouldn’t be surprised if they collabed with isle skateboards because they all mostly ride for the same two company’s
zacho
I’m also all for it but I don’t think they would make boards seeing as most of the people on drift ride for isle skateboards
spicy peter
What abec are your bearings?
Matt Picard
Is the amount of companies starting up that supply hard goods sustainable? At what point does the game become so over saturated that there ends up being too many options and a bunch of companies shut down because no one can turn a profit? So many new companies have been started within the last two years and a lot of them are actually cool to the point where I no longer consistently support the same brands and I wonder if it’ll reach a point where only the big corporations can survive and we wind up in a similar position where there are only a handful of companies to pick from instead of the vast array we experience today.
sexyprostateexam
Do you think skateboarding hardgoods have reached a final point in evolution/engineering? Seems like there’s little room for further innovation in functional side of skateboarding equipment
Alex Clayton
First pro you ever met

Yo also is it Corny to do the same trick in different stances in a video part (ie kickflip and fakie flip in the same video)
Nicholas Kanakis
How do you warm up and warm down for skating?
Davis Campbell
As an apparent hater of European skateboarding 😜what are your thoughts on the idea of Atlantic Drift becoming a board company? I’m all for it!
boylife
favorite music album ?
nine beam
how do you feel about “ pay to skate “ skateparks?
skygate
is there anything you can do to improve ur style or are you just stuck
Logan Jones
Damn good to know that makes sense I’ve only skated the mids/high
1
Half size down is perfect for me, however I do notice mid tops seem to be a little larger, and low tops feel a little tighter
Logan Jones
Have you had issues with Last Resort sizing? I skated 2 pair, and found that a half size down was too big and full size down is too tight. Bummed because the shoes are so sick.
trip hazard
can you talk about Evan hay as an influence? or just a general reflection on his content? I was a big fan of his stuff, so funny.
Garrick Slings
Cool things can’t thrive on Reddit Because cool people don’t use Reddit
Felix K.
Did all this turn into your dreamjob and do you think you could do this for many many more years?
Garrick Slings
I asked this already but would you consider posting videos you took off of YouTube for being too mean or edgy, like the Nak lotties video on here? Also advise on making skate friends I’m tired of skating curbs alone
miss misery
do you think skaters not having instagram makes them more desirable (like jake johnson, max palmer, kevin rodrigues)
spitting_goblin
who was your first fav pro?
spitting_goblin
favorite candybar? mine is wunderbar
spitting_goblin
do you listen to aphex twin and what do you think about him?
Gabriel Snyder
Do you read? And if so, what was the last book you read and what is your favorite book?
Val
What board company would Monster ride for? I think she’d fit in quite nicely with the Jah at Disorder because they would welcome her chaotic energy with open arms
Crash
Favourite Crash Bandicoot game?
Donny
How tall are you and who is your go-to skate friend!!
nippleslover
Do you read books?
Bugglagg
Your take on wheelbases, why do all board companies do the small and super squirly 14” and what wb is on your special real shape? 14” wb sucks for taller skaters since the wb should ve wider the taller you are for obvious reasons, especially if you combine that with a smaller wb truck like indy or ace.
paralelu 45
favorite color?
Badge Marquee
Why is the skateboarding subreddit so lame and full of beginners? Is it a symptom of niche reddit hobbyism? Is Slap the only way Core™ skaters can actually interact?
Danny Perez
List of Wood Shops and companies who use them in case anyone’s curious!^^^ https://www.existskatestore.co.uk/blogs/news/2019-wood-shop-manufacturers
Danny Perez
Do you have a favorite wood shop? Personally I love BBS for the feel, not heavy, good pop, and not flimsy. Opinions on different technology boards? i.e. Flight Decks, Everslick, Impact Light, VX, and Powerply. Preference of dips or stains?
robotbrian
Can you do any finger board tricks? Basically more finger board content is what I’m after sensai. The time has come

With the (relatively) recent popularity and growth of brands like FA/Hockey and the shift in styles of presentation to more experimental (the recent Aidan Mackey vid being a pretty good example of this, and maybe Bill Strobeck as a whole, if not on a video by video basis, since he is fairly consistent stylistically), do you think it presents an opportunity for less talented skaters to make a name for themselves via an interesting aesthetic or presentation? Or will talent and a fisheye always take precedence over anything new people feel like trying?
Elliot Rooney
I’ve heard you mention Evan Hay before, me and my buddy Eric loved his stuff. I was very sad when he stopped putting out videos and deleted everything he had already put out. I was just curious if he was an inspiration of sorts?

angcient_rock
are there any good techniques you've found for overcoming fear in skateboarding? you touched on this a little bit in your front crook vid, would be cool to hear any more insights you might have :) (get well soon hater <3)
Rhys
Not skate related but do you have a favourite movie?
Kedrick Bryant
Top 10 skater’s that are black?
Babel2GK
What do you think about splitting up contests like street league into more different events to give more different types of skaters a chance? Like having a rail section, ledge section, flat ground/game of skate and best run where you try to use the whole park.
sosalistener
What's something outside of skating that makes you happy.
Iriemon
How has the fact that you have started making good money as a skate youtuber changed how you view yourself, the content you create, and your plans for future content?
blue3
do you think companies like frog making videos that have amazing skateboarding yet don’t take themselves seriously (e.g. recent Hayden Burns part and EvanFrankie video) has or will influence the way people think about skate videos and approaches to it? In wake of skateboardings recent explosion in popularity, it almost seems less cool to make overly serious, self important skate videos. You mentioned once that the “van” culture of skateboarding seems stupid and dated now, which I agree with. Is it cooler now to be less serious, or to not hold onto these “traditions” given that skateboarding is no longer seen as sort of rebellious or underground?
Adrian Allen
How much do you plan ahead for your ‘higher’ production videos where you talk in depth about some subject? do you kind of speak off the cuff, and sort of change and enhance a thought here and there and simply edit out the bad takes? or is it more of a scripted format. I ask because Im mostly impressed by you’re ability to coherently speak out your thoughts very well, and was wondering if that just comes naturally to you.
