Mimz wrote I've never really noticed this. I don't skate much anymore, my last board I snapped a few years ago.
But I have friends who listen to OFWG and skate or even Lil Wayne.

How do you even dress like a skater? I've never seen a specific style. When I was skating I used to wear South Pole and Nike.

I think you misunderstood this. He is not saying that you can't skate and listen to OFWG and Lil Wayne, he is saying that people who skate just because of OFWG and Lil Wayne are irritating. Mainly because of the fact that most of those people can't skate well.

Im not dissing everyone, Im just saying all the posers that skate just to look cool and just because Lil Wayne and Odd Future skate.

And just wearing skate brands,baggy clothes, flannels,chinos. Im not saying If you dont wear these you aren't a skater but this is probably what a lot of skaters wear. So Im just generalizing off that.

Just saying, Odd Future has always skated. So don't bring that into this. No ****** is going to skate because Lil Wayne does it either, unless they're like 12.

I have noticed this but I just let them be. I can't skate that we'll at all anymore but it is annoying when I do skate and I can't do much and people call me a poser.

I do agree with this.

OT:
I misunderstood. But I can understand what your talking about, some people will skate because it's what everyone else does or their favorite stars do. Same as the clothes, it's irritating in that aspect. People should just do what they want.

That is a misconception of the term 'poser'. A poser is not someone who is bad at skating. A poser is someone who skates due to the fact that they think it will make them cool. Even if they're great, but do it to be cool, they are a poser.
Besides, usually, anyone who calls someone a poser, is the real poser.

People who dress like a skater and don't skate are called posers. They are common among the human population. Just ignore them.

Skateboarding is rapidly becoming a popular sport again, and it helped a lot with Lil Wayne having a shot at trying it out. Not saying I like him, but he does have a major part in re-popularizing the sport.
Personally, I skate everyday and have been for the past 3 years, and I hate all these kids that wear Diamond Supply and LRG clothing but don't even know the backgrounds to the company. Lil Wayne and Odd Future bandwagoners are stupid as well, OF honestly isn't that good and neither is Lil Wayne, obviously.

You misunderstood OF could of been skating forever thats not the point, all these kids at my school are like wearing Odd Future Merch. Got the OF Board and what not, but they cant skate and they all brag about how they can skate. Its annoying how now everyone wants to be a skater.And yes, people skate just because of rappers, and not 12 year olds. There are Juniors in my school that do that just to be cool.
