LMAO!! I didnt know they put a review of scarred live up….

Anyway, here is my two cents: MTV paid us to fly to san diego and skate/ride.
this was an amazing experience for all of us, i really could give a shit less if i can skate or not, i stopped skating shortly after the accident and hadn’t been on a board for probaly 5 or 6 years. in practice i landed the shitty boardslide a hundred times. im a comedian not a skater. i got to met bucky lasek, brian deegan, wee man and kenny hughes, that was amazing in itself, i shoulda jumped in the f-ing shark tank when i had the chance!

yeah, that looks stupid.. skateboarding should stay out of these clowny shows, real skateboarding is not anything even closely related to this, Viva La Bam och the X-games.. All that shit need to stop, if people would want skateboarding they would have something produced and arranged by skateboarders and not some money-making clowns.. all this shit needs to stop and that is now! this makes me sick..

Haha… Funny article. None of that stuff the author said about me was true, but still funny.

The show was completely lame and horrible, but I had a blast out there.

Sorry so many people got suckerd into watching that garbage.

I’m gonna have to go with Brandon on this one, skateboarding is not a sport. If it were, contests would have teams and you could pass the skateboard back and forth to your teammates. I don’t like MTV exploiting skateboarding like this. But at least the host (Jason Acuna) knows something about skateboarding.

Chacina, We were there the whole day watching the skateboarding. Fat Tony made it first try and Mitch thought he made it first try. I did see Josh skating before camera crews went on and then his dissopointment when they wouldn’t let him try it a third try so they could get an interview. However they left the chain up for 30 more minutes – if it were for the love of skatebaording I wish he would have redeemed himself and tried it again. I work in skateboarding so I do know a lot about it. Yes you can’t tell how good someone is based off one trick thats why there are contest skaters and ones that do mostly street. Maybe I was a bit harsh to him but his attitude towards kids that tried to talk to him as well as the media sent to cover the event put him in a bad light. We all have our off days. He just had his on MTV.

You guys have no clue at how good josh is. I have pictures of him doing some sic moves and landing them. I also have a picture of him olling over a trunk of a car and landing it. I think you guys are jealous because cardiee english gave him so much attention and not you.

Obviously you all don’t know much about what goes on behind the scenes. Those guys were each supposed to perform their recreation stunts 2 times. They were told by MTV to miss the stunt the first time, so in reality they had one chance to make it. Although some of those guys broke the rules and tried it several times. Also, if you know anything about skateboarding, then you would know that you can’t tell how good someone is by watching them try to recreate something in one try on live tv. In any case, I doubt any of them care what is said about them, considering they do it for the love of it and not to impress the likes of people like you, and they got a free trip to San Diego.

This is the kind of shit that ruins skateboarding. Bringing skateboarding in to these cheesey fucking shows just makes everone look stupid. You got this dude who can barley ollie trying to boardslide down a little rail off a two stair. The guy in the show lost his balls doing it on some janky skatepark rail in his home town. which was higher then the one going down the two stair and dued still couldint pull it off. He looked rediculous even attepmting it. And some kisd to olllli over a chain. thats a foot off the ground. These people can not skate they have no fucking balance. No reason they are on this show for getting broke off. they break them selves off and break bones attempting shit when they them selves cant even ride a skateboard.
Then you got Kenny Hughes. Who in my opinion has allwasy been an amazing skateboarder and still is. Skateing a rail with only one push room to get to and they MTV want him to just throw himself down it like first try, so they can get the show going.
All in all you got these shows of people who know jack shit trying to make money and something they think is a sport (skateboarding)
And people out there. Skateboarding is not a sport.
