Oh, ok the mainstream is showing the mainstream what skateboarding is all about??

What is the real intent in your mind?
haahahh this is too funny!
sounds like a great show
Yeah- World industries and core have no business being in the same sentence. The folks who took over World are kooks who don’t skate and are all about department stores.
Their shoes are lame. At least ‘Es was in the mix, now that’s a program.
World=lame
