Status of Pro Longboarding
Episode description
On a April 19th, I published an opinion piece on my Instagram/IGTV. I knew it could ruffle some feathers around our longboarding community but I did it anyways because that is what Longboardarian is all about, covering longboarding! There are many topics to visit and discuss. this particular subject is about pro longboarding. I chose to start a conversation on this particular because as an observer I feel like 2019 is bringing some interesting changes in the highest levels of PL. I would love to see the WSL and The Relik have success with their respective tours. On this episode I propose an idea for pro longboarding that in my opinion would assist in bridging the two main disciplines of competitive longboarding. I am not the best orator around so when I tried to put together a video with my proposal I feel like it may have been slightly misinterpreted. I was accused of being divisive and misleading. All I wanted to do was start a conversation. I feel confident about my proposal for competitive pro longboarding and I welcome a respectful discussion about it. Here's my take two in presenting my idea. I hope you enjoy!
