    I can never quite put my finger on the cause of people's underlying hate for Hyun + Jun.
    They are two local guys who stayed local, stayed skating for themselves, made a brand for themselves, made some incredible parts. That's like the real dream, not the whole move to america, get sponsored, get shafted by sponsors, turn your skating into a job for someone else.
    But the comments (from the start) have always been baying for his downfall. Especially recently.
    They did sick stuff, they're doing sick stuff, and I hope they keep doing it.

    Loved the Bob Ross reference you made at 4:45 which I feel like is a major part of what makes Hyun's style so dope. So many clips in this video are of him making a mistake but still landing it (sketchily) which is normally a big nono in skating but he pulls it off and it adds to his allure. Just like how Bob Ross makes happy accidents and then turns them into a sick little tree or something. Solid vid dude

  • @doggosupremme

    I like Hyun, and I like that his footage and presence is rare. I think a lot of skaters post too much on instagram make too many parts, I appreciate his footage that much more when it drops. I also respect that he wants to do his own thing because he should stay in germany, he's got a good thing going on and he is so unique that where would he really even fit in, in the context of a skate team. Him and his crew is the vibe and it's what makes his presentation what it is. Him trying to be a pro on a board team and living in LA is just competing in a rat race.

    In my opinion, I do agree with the theory he comes from some money.
    But he is a rare case of being a genuine skate rat in spite of that.
    He doesn't need the industry validation; you can tell by body language he doesn't really fuck with Crob in that BATB interview.
    I don't think his goal was influence, I think he was just a kid who wanted to skate with his older brother and eventually got better than him.
    Yes, the brand isn't marketed well at all, they really just rely on organic traffic and don't organize full parts in their videos.
    But I feel skateboarding needed Hyun because he broke a lot of rules.

Also they used to skate in a Green park all the time as opposed to the cement park they’re always at now. You might be right but like you said it’s awesome they’re genuine Skate heads.

He was completely silent the whole time, just shredding. I think its more what his personality is like, it's not for show.

Some of our local skaters hung out with him and genuinely said that he has a very child-like character, which says alot because we all were around 17-18 at the time. They said he liked to smoke a lot of weed and just chill. I guess if he doesnt know you like that he wont entertain a conversation with you

      in what way? i also think skaters should credit their filmers, especially if the part took very long to film. i never ask for tags but in my mind i think of it as rather a d*ck move and i'd imagine most people do but they don't want to make drama over some tag. it's not that filmers hope someone will see the tag and follow them or whatever, it's just a nice gesture of appreciation and if i see no tag i feel like he doesn't acknowledge me willing to just sit there for hours for him or is too embarassed to tag me or something. like literally what other reason could there be. that it's gonna make the description look less sophisticated? lol

I still love skateboarding though, so when I found out everyone just uploads to YT now, and you don't have to buy the DVD's, I was on it.
