I have vented all my hate concerning Theed, it's really just kids who won't leave him be that bothers me, anyways...I've come to realize that he deserves respect for his influence on steeze culture. MALONE put it in new perspective for me. "...Homie never wanted anything more out of skiing than he got, and he got more than he wanted including all this internet cock riding. So get off it..."
Heed never asked for the hate, or the adoration, he just did his thing and it was cool. That's it. Now leave it at that.
That being said, notice any similarity in these 2 pics?
Theed rail steeze
Slater Pipe steeze
2 of my fav pics of all time, skodeo7 pointed out the similarity to me: "hahaha its funny, in that kelly slater pic, his body is in the EXACT same position as Heed on that dope C rail. Checkit."
He's right, steeze is steeze, whatever the sport may be, hopefully skating, surfing, boarding and skiing culture will progress to influence each other more in the future. I know I have always been inpired by people riding w STEEZE in all those sports.
...what do you think?
