Mike Vallely, Are you his fan or his foe? - Skateboard Forums

eight-x-4our · 10-05-2005, 10:42 AM

I am personly a very big fan of Mike Vallely, and think he attitude to Skateboarding and the world around him is the best attitude to have! He has an amazing style on a skateboard, constnatly going fast and busting him self up, and when he does slam he gets rite back up and trys again! I just want to know what you other people think of Mike Vallely, do you like him or hate him? please tell me why you like or hate him.

I dont really like him that much. Hes an awesome dude, always helping people and such but i dont like his style of tricks. Although that video Dan posted of him was cool.

He has worse style than a dog with one leg, i don't think pro sections should be made up of variations of bonelesses and handstands, it's embarrassing.

LoveMetalSk8er · 10-05-2005, 09:23 PM

mike v rocks. thats it. but 80% of his stuff is street he should get into vert more.

eight-x-4our · 10-05-2005, 09:29 PM

LoveMetalSk8er i total agree with you there..... I think the unique style and tricks that Mike V goes around with is Great! I would love to meet him in person, he would propperally be one of the most sound guys to meet ever!

Iconic · 10-06-2005, 12:52 AM

Completely agree with you on that,based on what i have seen from him he should not be pro or even am for that matter. I don't even count boneless as tricks in games of skate simply because you basically use your hands to do all of the tricks not to mention they are just ugly as can be. Boneless are fun to mess around with or use as filler but when it gets to the point when you have done more than 5 boneless variations in a video it becomes old..fast.

Mike Vs a good skater and a cool guy. Hes also my cousin in real life.

HELLonWHEELS · 11-04-2005, 04:24 AM

The boneless's are his trademark trick nobody is even close to him at that trick he has so many variations of that tricks its incredible i do think he should have a wider verity though

i think hes good , cant go wrong with old school stuff

eight-x-4our · 11-05-2005, 10:25 AM

The way he views skateboarding is a amazing i dont think there is any other pro skater with mike v's approach to skating which i think is great. I think the way he stands up for skateboarding is great.
I got jumped on my way home last night by some Chavs (some of you might know then as "neds" or "townies") just becuase I skate, now i dont see what is so wrong about skateboarding that makes then think "oh my god he skate, quick smash his face in", I like to think that its becuase they tried skateboarding and couldent get any where with it, gave up and got jelouse of the people that are progressing in the sport.

well thats his problem and thats why he gets in so many damn fights. hes just gotta relax a little and not fight so many people.

eight-x-4our · 11-05-2005, 09:20 PM

He hasent had a fight in over 2 years, since the conflict that was shown on CKY, he doesnt beleave in fighting, and that violence is not the answer...

listen2cky · 12-02-2005, 02:19 AM

Mike V has amazing style in skating and does some extremely tech moves.I unlocked his video footage on TH Am Wasteland and he he comes up to a ledge, board in hand and just puts one hand on it stays upright on the ledge upside-down and comes off oposite of entrance and bomb-drops(caveman) on to the ground out of the one-handed handstand!!!!!!!!!!!
