Spot Check
fuck taking cabs and fuck taking vans,
i'll skate there...
September 18, 1999
okay, sorry for that bad punny shit. but i actually saw cab this weekend--didn't talk to him for fear that i'd call him a wanker--but i did see him skating the combi pool. of course that was after watching him crawl around the street course bailing 25 krookid grinds in a row.
so i checked out the vans park in the hell mall of all hell malls in the hellish mall capital of the world orange county california. the combi pool rocks, and otherwise the shit is a bigger waste of space and concrete than the HB park.
 vans flew out representatives of selected retailers (i.e. ones who they want to buy/sell more $hoes) put them up in the DoubleTree and gave them free run of the park (valued at ~$60 per day). meanwhile they were checking ben shroeder and lucero's receipts to make sure they paid?!? all i learned is van$ is all about making big money. they could give a fuck about skateboarding. they have no fucking clue. they see skateparks as a fucking investment in future shoe buyers. fucking fucks. and cab is a fucking p.m.a. aging rock star. he's gotta live with the fact that he's a rich old wanking pro athlete. if he gets payed for "designing" shoes then he's fucked. his shoes hurt my feet and didn't bend right. no skateboarder would design shoes like that. they're built for maximum profit to hang his name on. of course he could do goddamned long boardslides in the combi-round.
van$ don't give a shit about skateboarding. its like DC giving $$ to milarepa-- they got the beasties to rock their shit. its all fucking business.
fuck vans, and cabs still an old wanker even if he's my idol.
