@brocksart

He couldn't remember what steemskate week it was. LOL Same thing happened to me dude! But luckily he had "STEEMSKATE WEEK #3" written on his hand. Oh else he has a really tiny phone...

Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 9.38.10 PM.png

His name was Brock Springstead. What he brought to steemskate was something we've never seen.
He drops his board on the ground and it does a flippy thing and then he lands primo on it doing a pressureflip out.

This was by far the funniest entry ever. This is the future of steemskate. This is the kind of stuff the whales will upvote.
This dude made me laugh 5 to 6 times during his clip.

He also did like a num-chuck move with his board. He held the wheel of his board and spun it around like that.

He had Zelda grip tape.

Like a badass, he skated private property!

I would have funny gifs to make from his video but you will have to go over to dTube to watch his clip.

"raggety-ass skatepark," he says at the beginning. He is right! Look at that huge crack in the ground at that skatepark! Its like some crappy skatepark in the middle of the country! Its on a farm? There are silos not 20 yards from the quarter pipe!

Still, its sick that you have a skatepark. Hey @nicksmitley, if you plan on living in that town for a while (like the next 10 years) hit up Spohn Ranch Skatepark developers and just shoot them an email saying how your town might be willing to spend money on a new park. Thats a money shot for my homie's skatepark company. I don't know if your town has extra money to throw at a skatepark, maybe you don't know either, and thats OK.

But what was @nicksmitley's trick?


Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 10.31.04 PM.png

THIS trick looks simple and primitive, but it is really racking my brain on what it is called. I think @nicksmitley intended this... to trick us with his trick. Ah ha! Nick Smitley did a Boneless 180 finger shuv!

Not many are acquainted with the finger-shuv

Almost breaking his board!


Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 10.33.28 PM.png

LOL good thing that boards old and flexible bud!

Even if it broke, wouldn't be the end of the world, you could always look at the top of the ramp and see if...


Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 10.54.26 PM.png

Someone left their weed bowl and phone at the skatepark!
Take the goods and runn!!!! runn @nicksmitley! lol jk


@stickchumpion https://steemit.com/steemskate/@stickchumpion/my-entry-for-steemskate-steemit-skateboarding-contest-week-3-free-skate

First of all I want to thank @stickchumpion for creating a STEEMIT post for his entry and not just a dTube link!

Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 11.02.57 PM.png

"ALL THE SBD MADE FROM MY POST WILL GO TO THE WINNER," @stickchumpion says.


That is a Boss move. He should win for offering his entry post rewards to the winner. He has STEEM SOUL.
Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 11.12.47 PM.png

His steemskate video was EXTENSIVE! A whole journey. He set out wearing a pair of baggy grey sweatpants and encountered....


stickchump.gif

AH HA YES! the crust polejam from an ole! This cracked me up when this barely-skateable object popped back up on the screen. @stickchumpion dropped in on the Crusty Ole'
No music during this part makes it hilarious.
Does @stickchumpion SKATE TO THE SKATEPARK?
Those streets look smooth too.
No, @stickchumpion must recon with the driver at a parking lot, where he finds...
A waxed? parking block that looks like its from the 1800's.

tickchump2.gif

What on Earth is he doing?
AH HA! It's a Fakie pop shuv caveman footplant 180!
The bystander does not notice him.
But the cops do!
He quickly boardslides the parking block before the cops come.
Escaping to the skatepark...

YEAH STICKCHUMPION good skate! And look you guys...

More STEEM added to the pot!


@snaildpe

Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 12.01.26 AM.png
@SNAILDPE IS ON STEEMSKATE! HELL YEAH BRO
He says "steemskate week three" in slow motion it sounds dope! I'm gonna do that next time!
This video is so rad! Look at how fast they skate when they grind the parking block!
A nollie half cab and then a switch slappy on the parking block!
Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 12.08.31 AM.png
I was expecting a handrail from you bro! But I admire the effort to keep it beginner friendly!
We have had two people skate parking blocks and thats fine by me!

One of @snaildpe's homies feeble's the waxed parking block.

And then...
Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 12.00.04 AM.png
He does a FREEDOM front blunt! And he slides too, you can go check out his video on d-tube.
He says that winter is actually the nicest weather for skateboarding where he is in Arizona.


@leosk8 https://steemit.com/steemskate/@leosk8/mg2cwtib

This entry is from a person in Venezuela!! Wow! I can't believe there are people skating in Venezuela! From what I know their communist dictators destroyed their currency, and it got hyper inflated to where it costs like $20 to buy a single roll of toilet paper.

Giving Venezuelan's a way to earn crypto is awesome, but giving a Venezuelan skateboarder a way to earn crypto is even better.

Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 8.00.02 AM.png

Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 8.02.43 AM.png

To be connected to the Venezuelan skate community through the internet like this is very rad.

He does a line for us in this week's Steemskate. He stomps a fakie front heel, setting off a nearby car alarm, followed by a front noseslide on the ledge.

@leosk8 make sure you say "STEEMSKATE" at the beginning of your video to ensure that your clip is raw and recent, and made especially for the contest. I will let this one slide!

Look at how smooth the ground is at that spot. You should make more vLog style blogs about life in Venezuela! Show the rest of the world what it is like there! People on steemit would be proud to upvote you when you show then how dire the situations there are.

Its so gnarly that you guys are "battling to keep skating alive" in Venezuela when people are in the streets killing each other for food. Venezuela is the top region where the term "steemit" is searched in google

Get more Venezuelans on the steemit money minting machine. But we need people to POWER UP and not just remove money from the ecosystem. Steemit is still young and we gotta build up our STAKE in the proof of stake blockchain before the millions of people flood to steemit in the coming year because of the censorship on youtube ect.


@nicolcron https://steemit.com/steemskate/@nicolcron/v8gbtwk7


OK! back to the contest here we have the essential @nicolcron's steemskate entry!
Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 8.29.51 PM.png
Look at the spot he is skating. It is a DIY spot under a bridge. He is so lucky to have that. Hey @stickchumpion, have you ever skated this spot? @nicolcron and @stickchumpion are both from England.

@nicolcron does a super tech trick! Front Noseslide switch manual half cab out!

Look at all the sick graffiti under that bridge!

Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 8.32.27 PM.png

He has a full length edit of that session coming soon! Be sure to go check out @nicolcron's page if you arn't already subscribed.


@web-gnar https://steemit.com/steemskate/@web-gnar/steemskate-week-3-submission-by-web-gnar-3-flat-ground-tricks

@web-gnar participated and did a few flip tricks.
He is also donating his earning from that post to this WEEK 3 "contest". I put *contest* in quotes because its not really about competition. Think of it more like an art show. STEEMSKATE is just a platform within steemit to exhibit skateboarding and to form a strong SKATE NODE on the STEEM blockchain ecosystem.

@sk8boardingshow https://steemit.com/steemskate/@sk8boardingshow/f0tkz1jr

Oh whats this? I searched the #steemskate hashtag and found a straggler entry! Its a guy skating an orange bowl! his name is @sk8boardingshow.

Screen Shot 2018-03-06 at 8.45.56 PM.png

He cruises the bowl and does a rock and roll on the coping!
DISQUALIFIED! ahah sorry bro you did not follow 2 of the main rules ! You gotta say steemskate and you gotta actually APPLY your post in the comments section of the STEEMSKATE week post by @web-gnar.
Still, we appreciate your entry! The skate community here is still in it's infancy. We are still gathering the flocks of shredders at this point.


And the winner IS...

![drum-roll-please-2.gif]()
@nicolcron and @brocksart BUT EVERYONE IS A WINNER THIS WEEK! I WILL SEND +1SBD TO ALL PARTICIPANTS!

OH YEAH @stickchumpion I think you should send your winnings to @ambermayormaynot to call her out on not submitting something this week!
YEAH thats right everyone! we have a female shredder on steemit!

Screen Shot 2018-03-05 at 9.18.54 PM.png

She makes knee pads look cool! wow. she is going to have awesome style if she keeps skating . hey! @ambermayormaynot, your heelflip video was awesome and as a "Progress" video would really make an interesting addition to steemskate. I have never seen a "progress" video before, probably because people (especially girls) don't BLOG about thier skateboarding !

That is why its so cool! @ambermayormaynot, you can be the first woman to earn crypto from skating!

Freeskate you can literally do anything. someone could submit a video of them watching TV, with thier skateboard on their lap, using the skateboard as a tray to set thier beer on while they watch TV lol.

P.S.


My brain is fried This post has taken over 5 hours to compile lol. I have never had to stop working on a post to go to sleep and then come back to it the next day.

Going through the entries IS super fun but you gotta make sure it stays fun!

  1. say web-gnar steem skate
  2. post it in the comments of the contest
  3. upvote the contest post. (we had 32 upvotes this week). maybe some day some rich guy will appreciate what we bring to the steem world. with a click of a mouse, someone could pay a whole community of people to skate.

STEEMSKATE DISCORD CHAT
https://discord.gg/98d3sMv
This is what I would say if I was in the discord chat,

yo you guys gotta start using youtube or vimeo for these its really hectic clicking all this D tube video and I cant make GIFS out of the highlights of your clips like I want to!
use STEEMIT not that dtube app. for these STEEM SKATE contests because its going to get crazier and crazier for me to go through all the entries. its the SAME THING! just once in a while the @DTUBE ACCOUNT WILL RANDOMLY UPVOTE YOU. you can use dtube for all your personal shit and i mean if you love dtube i guess you can still use it.

WOW IT feels awesome paying people to skate here! So much fun! thats the dream to be able to pay dudes to go out and get buck wild!

Sort:  

Had fun with this! I like the review man. I'm ready for week 4, let's skate!
Btw, thanks for the info for fixing the skatepark. Actually, this park is a few towns away, but I am in the middle of nowhere lol. My town has a park, but really it's like a gravel pit with a few pieces of sheet metal tacked together. I do intend on moving out in the near future lol.
