Oppinions on Sheckler

austinaroberts

One reason im posting this is cuz im sick of stupid posers talkin shit about sheckler

but mostly cuz ryan sheckler usually stirs up a good argument.

so here it is...

Ryan Sheckler does NOT suck...he is NOT a pussy nor a sellout.

he kickflipped a 16 stair, he varial heeled over the handrail of some big set i dont know how many it was, the gap he does in Oakley our life is HUGEEEEE...same for the back 180 halfpipe gap...KILLS at dew tour every year and has the cleaniest landings in skateboarding.

Life Of Ryan - i know its a reality show but its not actually reality...sorry guys, MTV scripts half the shit on there and sets up for the rest.

Everyone says he's a sellout too and that real skaters wouldnt skate for the money and glory, but..you all really would, any of you..you would all take the sponsors and money to skate...because if ur not getting paid to skate, ur making ur living somewhere else..not skating...so if ur getting paid millions to skate..you dont have to get a job seperate from skating, allowing you to skate all the time cuz you love it.

Sheckler loves skateboarding and kills it.

i agree hes done some gnarly stuff, but has he gotten any better since he was 14? i mean cmon. he makes himself look so good doing backflips... it takes athletic ability to do that, not skating skill. and , ftr, it took him like 15 tries to do a tre up the box at the dew tour. the varial heel anyone cudda gotten if they had a patient camera man that u wud put tons of money into. theres nothing consistent bout him. what im saying is, hes basically the skateboarding version of Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and A. J. McLean all put into one. this is my opinion.

I'm sorry to say but sheckler is a sellout he through almost in the dirt as soon as he found out Plan B would give him as many pro decks as possible and dude for just agreeing to make a show on mtv thats going to have tons of fake drama is just lame. He might a well be a pop singer.
Now for him being a good skater thats true he brings the gnar but not much more than anyone else, hes not overly amazing when looked at from a pro level and there plenty of ams and flow people who are just as good as he at his age but they don't have the pretty face and willingness to be exploited.

Sheckler is about as cool as a frozen hot dog.
