Stop trying to convert us, its not working. Ive tried it and I prefer longboarding. Thread moved.
LOL footbreaking is a lame way to slow down? You try lifting a foot at 40mph instead of having them snugly strapped down like a puss. Speedchecks and sliding are other ways to slow down. You know nothing about longboarding. Our community DOES know about freeboarding and we don't like it much. So stop trying so hard to make us agree with you that freebording is better.

To All,
I wasn't trying to convince anyone that freebording is better merely that its another fun way to ride on the streets. I see now how it was falling on deaf ears but thats cool to each his own. If anything I figured as fellow board riders youd be stoked on the progress the board world has made instead of hating on it. Its not like i'm trying to promote the ripstik I know a few people who longboard and freebord and love both but I understand that can't be everyone. I have respect for longboarders but unfortunately sometimes it isn't mutual. Lets all just chill and relax and agree to disagree.

Man, you really are thick.
How long ago did you discover the Freebord?
We have seen some of these films you posted for years.
Yes, you absolutely were and still are trying to explain all about the board like nobody here has ever seen it and that it was some great new thing you were bestowing upon the ignorant bunch here.
Deaf ears?...., lots of people said they knew what it is and that they have tried it and did not care for it.
Progress the board world has made?
You come here to tell everybody about a nine year old "new" thing you have found.
Your approach has been done here a dozen or more times by other Freebord missionaries.
That's why I said I wondered if the marketing group at Freebord had some special powers.
At least if you were here to talk about a Ripstick it might be slightly newer news.lol
Disrespect came from you, when you would not listen and learn, so has been returned to you.
Now you want everyone to chill and relax... why don't you read and learn for a couple of months before you shoot your mouth off again.

You are still acting like you were bringing something new here.

The hating came from your stupid attitude, not for the Freebord.

Your approach was stupid and you were warned several times to get your head back in the right place but you don't listen real well.
Now you want everyone to chill and relax, you found a way to piss a whole bunch of people here off over and over again with your crap so why don't you read and learn for a couple of months before you shoot your mouth off again.
I was trying to clear the air and agree to disagree but you took it as one more chance to bash me. Real e-tough of you 8) I never tried to make it sound like that I was truly just stoked for people to see it who have never heard of it. I'm sure there are some on here who havent. I know its "your" community but I dont think you speak for everyone one here. I've said my peace. Good luck to everyone and peace out all.

Your incentive was far from spreading the stoke, my friend. If you can't see that then you've got a lot to learn about yourself, let alone the dynamic of action sports and their derivatives. Your post was just a slightly less direct parallel of the shortboarders who show up here once in a blue moon to inform us that shortboarding is better than longboarding. None of the hostility you faced here was unprovoked or unjustified. Take a lesson from this and be ensured that none of us hate freeboarding... we just hate punks with attitudes.

Revolt,
I tried to be nice several times and you wanted a fight.
Now I e-kicked your ass and you're hurt.
I was not trying to go after you until you finally provoked it out of me.
It is not my community, I am an old, slow, skater who matters very little around here but I am not unintelligent as you stated and I know how to behave with strangers.
I am street smart enough not to go to a new surf spot or to a party where they don't know me and talk, talk, talk about my sh!t without listening and paying attention to what goes on right in front of me.
You asked for it... and now you want me to feel bad for you... for some reason I do.
So school up a bit... and peace out to you.
Ben,
We probably agree on a lot of stuff.
I got married young, I had kids young.
I am often cranky and disagree just for sport.
I love board sports.
It bugs me when people flaunt ignorance and stupidity.
I am of above average intelligence.
Does any of this sound like you?
I have far less skating experience than you though.
Interesting..... I would say be should have a beer sometime, but neither of us drinks.
