The fact that the most visible thing is a giant strip of knobs at the bottom makes me think this was intended parody. But then I think—eesh. I doubt it. If this was a joke, it’s *really* well done. Very smart. If it wasn’t (spoiler, it wasn’t), I have some advice—practice posing on some smaller obstacles. Get that realism. You know—be an artistic faker. Or, you know, just *actually* put in the time and learn to skate

awe. you caught me my man...blew the whole industry wide open with this one comment! It's all a sham and the magazines are made up up wholly unethical jerks who just photoshop skateboarders doing stuff they could never do. and the skaters just let it happen cause it helps their careers. There's even a documentary about it. [VIDEO] nowadays skate videos are all deep fakes using wires and green screen technology. No on
