yo you’re completely just overlooking the crazy shit he’s doing while over analyzing the small stuff that just annoys you, YOU use your brain and realize how amazing of a skater he actually is.
This video is honestly hilarious to me, I cannot imagine being this wound up about what a guy does or doesn't do with his back leg. I genuinely didn't notice any of these "problems" when I watched the original so I really don't think he's faking this for clout or whatever you seem to think. I feel like you could stand to relax a little lmao
bro honestly and w no hostility in my heart I cant believe that as a skateboarder you cant appreciate the context in which these "simple tricks" are done. He has to be hella precise to pull a lot of these tricks off, and we all know that speed is going to definitely up the difficulty (especially when it comes to maintaining style.) A trick doesn't have to be super technical to be impressive and entertaining, and there's a huge difference between having fake steeze and having fun. Edit: skids are fun.
Just for a lot of us it seems honestly forced, I might be wrong but he just looks like he's trying too hard with a lot of these spots to make something out of nothing. sure there's some really impressive tricks like the drop in on the narrow ledge, the 180 and the 5-0 but its honestly laughable to say this deserves to be in the conversation about Soty when there's Louie and Nyjah in that list.
Dude but at the notoriety and level he’s supposed to be at he should still be more technical. This dude is supposed to be a pro skater. But I can COMPLRETLY seeing a local skate shop skater who is just a really good local producing this exact part. I’m sorry but I’m not sold on style unless you can show great skill with it. Also I know he is better than me and better than I’ll ever be but I’m not a pro. So that argument is invalid here
My issue is that i enjoy watching skateboarders make hard tricks look easy. T Funk makes easy tricks look hard. So the gimmick doesnt do it for me. Like i despise making my tricks look harder by adding steez
Literally been threatened tens of thousands of times on the internet. +1 to that... Strange that no one has EVER in history.... EVER.... done anything. 10,001
Im glad hes embraced as much as he is regardless of so many other pros who are more technically profecient. Style is held in such high value because no other sport embracing the arts and individualism more than skateboarding. Its about self expression and feeling free.
@@NinjaLifestyledude literally WHAT are you talking about, the amount of delusion you’re indulged in is crazy, fully analyze the full part and don’t just smother your hatred in small shit man
@@NinjaLifestyle I'd rather watch 1000 funny looking 5050s on a curb over Nyjah's sterile rail skating any day. At least there's more variability in the process. One of my favorite skaters is this older guy who comes to my local and does bert slides and funny bonelesses because they look so much more fun than the dickhead kids doing unfathomably large flip tricks. I understand being salty about marketing, but eh. idk Ninja.
Just curious if you have ever been to China banks on SF? There is a 25ft drop on the other side of that. It’s a bridge across a street. That is so gnarly that he ollied that whole bench. I don’t think Anyone has ever filmed that Ollie across the whole bench.
There is literally no chance that you will fall off that bridge doing an ollie over an bench. I go there all the time. This is casual nonsense. You'd have to screw up so incredibly bad to go over the other side lmao
I just cannot understand what make him so hate. Forgive yourself please. If you dont like him skate, you just shut it down and turn on a porn, you no need to comment that like only you know what is skating.
@ it’s the new way for people to realize your age is clouding your judgment. Like when older dudes say “I don’t like the new music these days” we realize you’re getting old.
Adding steeze to your tricks is the heart and soul of skateboarding ! Self expression like painting a picture for the viewers.. calling it fake is crazy
I see a guy whos feeling himself too much and wants to make every trick as stylish as possible, the fake leg steez bothered me when he started to implement it, it was rarer first, but i think hes become more natural from part to part. Thats why hes so relatable, everybody wants to be a guy like tfunk, enjoying the session and his own skating and also landing all tricks perfect is not barely as interesting to watch as tricks on the knifes edge. If you want to go deeper analyse his last and earlier parts, it obviously changes over time. But as i said it, i like it, now.
Skateboarding is also about style. There are a lot of great skaters that I don't really like the style, but I appreciate the love that they put into it and I hardly miss a part. I think that the skateboarding community is bigger that our personal taste. T-Funk is, with a 100% certainty, not giving a fuck about what you think about him. Get up from the couch and go skate! ❤
Fake steez is not fake, it's free will... non skaters are into religion, culture and bunnies, I'm not saying TH-cams doing bad job they just literaly represent beating kids who make simple edits from some place that's been years untouched sometimes...
Nah this just sounds like unnecessary commentary on someone’s style. Truth is majority doesn’t care because his skating is enjoying to watch, video parts aren’t all about nbd’s, some parts can simply just be skating what they want…
Gotta disagree with you on this. His style is very much influenced by Tony Trujillo. I like your videos but you come off whiny and judgmental for really no reason on this. You sure judge a whole lot for someone who barely skates anymore.
I barely skate? that's weird... I thought I've put out a video of me skateboarding every single week for the past 10 years. Also I don't need to be physically skating to see when someone is using fake leg movements. Did you see the video where I emulated this style flawlessly? How do you think I pulled it off? Because it's very easy to do and the internet is very easy to fool.
Bros just hating at this point, just because you were pro like 20 years ago doesn’t mean you get to determine everything that’s right or wrong in skateboarding
That’s why we watch it. If you don’t then don’t watch these vids again lol softie. Restart the video and listen to what ninja says. That’s directed for you lollllll
Lmao, I always agree with Ninja. Although skating is originally derived from surfing, and a lot of the excessive stylish stuff does emulate surf style. Maybe unnecessary but in my opinion it looks dope and probably feels epic. Not to mention the tricks themselves are fucking absurd. Obviously ninja is just fucking around, take it for what it is he’s funny, the original troll. Have a good laugh
Everything is on the title THE STYLE IS FAKE / Think be yourself I don't want to hear someone trashtalk about someone for "help me to get right" I don't need you
What's up with that weird clothing style? Don't remember that was a thing like 10-20 years ago. All of the sudden so many (especially young) skateboarders dress like that. To me it comes across that they're trying so hard to be different or to stick out, like forced creativity lol.
We've been known t Funks steez was fake. Watch his older DC parts,and then out of nowhere he's got careful hands and crazy knees. And true, your style develops as you put more years on the board and get older, but his style is most definitely put on.
I mean I get it, its not everyones cup of tea. But tfunk atleast rides more than 2mph unlike ninja did in his old parts. Kinda weird to hate on style or trick selection (especially when ninja was doing old mans hand plants) when this is obviously something subjective. Fake steez or not, a whole lot of people like his steez.
Andrew Reynolds, Independent, and Spitfire all sponsored him because he has no talent, just fake style. Thrasher gave him TOTY as well. I guess you know more than them. 🙄
I assure you I have done a 50-50.... I just haven't yet done it 10 times in a single video part. Also bending my leg weirdly and putting my hand on the ground is easy. Need proof? Watch last week's video.
I’ve done that with my knee. It’s not fake style some people just land like that. For example jaws bends his legs into a triangle when he takes impact which is good because if you build a bridge out of popsicle sticks and put books on it the ones that form triangles hold more weight.
Complaining about a baker maker in a baker video is like complaining about looking at the ground and not raising your hands after a trick in a dgk video
He's a transition skater skating street. The point of his style is to get your adrenaline going because of the danger factor? Anyway it doesn't bother me because I enjoy and appreciate all styles of skateboarding. It's like watching an Thriller (chaos) vs a Musical (choreographed). It's not that serious bro😂.
dude thats t-funks whole thing, he skates super fast. you try oli over china banks, you seen how he had to push as fast as possible right before snapping the olli
I used to watch your skate videos 10 years ago to get me hyped for skating. Stumbling upon your account 10 years later is so sick to see. I love how brutally honest you are, fuck all that toxic positivity where everything is supposed to cool for no reason!! speak your mind hell yeah
I’m not the biggest t funk fan and I don’t love his style. But I don’t think it’s as fake as you say it is. You pointed out his switch hill bomb, but a lot of people have different style skating switch. If you watch a switch heel a lot of people almost look backwards. It’s harder to fake a style than to skate naturally. Also if he was doing nothing with his hands or knees you’d say he’s faking the effortless style or that he looks robotic and like he’s not trying.
I didn't understand how he was up for skater of the year. I didn't care for his part. It reminded of him trying to be like Chris Senn. Chris was my era and even back then I didn't understand how he kept winning contests.
I don’t think it’s ‘fake’ style, exaggerated/ performative perhaps but only with the goal of making his skating look the way he wants it to, which is his prerogative, wouldn’t you say?
I appreciate your negativity. I really do. I hate tfunk i think his style is stupid his capris are stupid and the clout he gets for basic tricks is stupid . Also him threatening to sue someone for not letting him skate his property was stupid
You are right, there is too much of "I did it, now I roll and skid" type of stuff. I like Ali Boulalas parts, but he also has alot of fake steeze in them.
He looks like the bad guy from the movie Brink. He does some pretty gnarly high speed tricks though. Gotta give him props for that. I hate the word steez. It didn't exist back when I skated, or not that i was aware of. I guess it means forcing style when it doesnt need to be there? Im still not really sure.
I wouldn’t say I have all those negative feelings towards pee funk but I’ve just never found his skating interesting, this is coming from a guy who likes the east coast style over tricks, Pee Funk
Are they impossible to skate? Didn't two guys casually ride over the bench in this exact same video part? You can't ride over a bank holding a beer smiling and laughing, THEN when you bend your leg slightly differently and do a small ollie it suddenly becomes the craziest spot ever. Then again Thrasher decides your opinions for you so...
This guy is basically a sketchy lower quality version of Erick Winkowski. Erick is 10x more stylish and just generally a better skater, plus doing it on an 80’s shape board. Look at guys like Andy Anderson too, who could easily emulate this style just for fun, while doing way more difficult tricks. That’s my opinion. Doesn’t matter.
That’s so funny. I love skate content and surf content and lately I see a lot of surfers practicing their surf techniques on a skateboard on flat ground and vert ramps. Acting like it’s impressive to skid ur board and make wildly over dramatic turns.
Probably you haven’t surfed. Doing that in surfing is EXTREMELY difficult. They’re “training” for it. It’s that difficult. And I’m not joking either go fucking try surfing yourself.
I try to listen to what you are saying and really look at it from your point of view about Tfunk, but it’s hard to imagine he’s faking all of that lol it’s just his style and he’s really good.
For me, it really doesnt matter if its fake or not. If he feels cooler tucking his knee in, why not? And I like to see basic or easy tricks on cool spots or used in a creative way, its just more fun to watch. But I understand that for some people the technical/athtletic side is more important, fair enough. Thats taste imo
Not saying YOU but... The same people who would write a comment like this often turn around and say Braille and Revive is stupid when arguably... they are having a lot more fun and don't fake their leg movements.
How do people confuse style and steeze with this? dude has his own style and can shred. But homeboy is all over the place like a sloppy joe. When I think of steeze and good style, PJ Ladd, Mark Appleyard, Antwuan Dixon, P-Rod, Mike Mo, etc come to mind. a lot of brazilian skaters got it to. Skaters that do tricks with natural steeze to where it looks almost effortless for them. To me that's style.
Speak what you want, listen to what you don't want. Ninja, you're a clown. Let the guy ride the way he wants, it's not about whether it's difficult or not. The guy rides like that and that's that, he's not a "fake". Not to mention his attitude towards what skateboarding has become today is admirable. It's because of guys like him that skateboarding hasn't (yet) become a marketing competition with circus acrobat skateboarders dressed like stockcar drivers full of bank sponsors. If his ollie way is cool, that's fine! If his 50-50 way is cool, that's fine! I repeat, it's not about whether it's hard or not, or what Trasher said or not. The way he rides is the way he rides, and that's that, accept it. The guy was even a SOTY finalist... and that's fine, mate! The concept of what is "fake" is very open and depends on interpretations, for example, for me, "fake" is a lonely 40-year-old guy who teaches kids how to dismantle a skateboard on a youtube video saying that the way a guy rides is not cool. I took the liberty of checking out your instagram profile, you know what? The way you ride is pretty weak (VERY WEAK) compared to T Funk. Envy is a painful feeling. But I'll give you a piece of advice, be cool, rethink the things you say that belittle other people's work, put yourself in your place, and be a little more humble. This is a video of immeasurable envy and mediocrity.
They need to throw this whole style of skater away. The fashion, the skate style, the regurgitated trash garage band doom tracks, the neo-70’s pool tricks, it’s been beat to death. We only need one Lizard King.
The knee tuck, while a lot of people might fake that, is a better form for absorbing impact and maintaining speed as you can use it to pump. Its a better base for control as well instead of being a straight squatter. Its pretty common with skaters who skate fast.

I ollied them on my second channel @steveHatesSkating
Obviously t funk lovers have never seen Markovitch, cardiel, Westgate and Josh katz... those dudes had had speed for days and original style!
Add guzman and the butcher to the list too
Yup. Josh Katz is a real speed demon.
@@ashleybrown4754 it's the helmet.. it's aerodynamic for magnificent speed
I'm so confused LMFAOOOO
Who are you?
Steve
I used to watch your skate videos 10 years ago to get me hyped for skating. Stumbling upon your account 10 years later is so sick to see. I love how brutally honest you are, fuck all that toxic positivity where everything is supposed to cool for no reason!! speak your mind hell yeah
I’m not the biggest t funk fan and I don’t love his style. But I don’t think it’s as fake as you say it is. You pointed out his switch hill bomb, but a lot of people have different style skating switch. If you watch a switch heel a lot of people almost look backwards.
It’s harder to fake a style than to skate naturally. Also if he was doing nothing with his hands or knees you’d say he’s faking the effortless style or that he looks robotic and like he’s not trying.
well maybe you just dont understand skateboarding at all
I unsubscribed after this video
This video is a year old
Funny you posted this - I watched this part and was extremely disappointed lol
I didn't understand how he was up for skater of the year. I didn't care for his part. It reminded of him trying to be like Chris Senn. Chris was my era and even back then I didn't understand how he kept winning contests.
the leg steeze is so he doesnt have to turn his upper body so much ,gives him more flexibility for better balance
imo
Bro def blew the candles out at his cousins funeral
probably just feels nice to him everyone has a certain tick like thing we do
blud mad cause u aint got no steeze, it makes watching it fun. u cant tell me after bussin ollies that fat you wouldnt get low for control
I don’t think it’s ‘fake’ style, exaggerated/ performative perhaps but only with the goal of making his skating look the way he wants it to, which is his prerogative, wouldn’t you say?
I mean if every time someone landed a trick and did jazz hands it'd be pretty stupid despite how much he wanted to craft his look.
@clever got it right
I appreciate your negativity. I really do. I hate tfunk i think his style is stupid his capris are stupid and the clout he gets for basic tricks is stupid . Also him threatening to sue someone for not letting him skate his property was stupid
You are right, there is too much of "I did it, now I roll and skid" type of stuff. I like Ali Boulalas parts, but he also has alot of fake steeze in them.
He looks like the bad guy from the movie Brink.
He does some pretty gnarly high speed tricks though. Gotta give him props for that.
I hate the word steez. It didn't exist back when I skated, or not that i was aware of. I guess it means forcing style when it doesnt need to be there? Im still not really sure.
ninja always calling it like he see's it. love it.
use me as a dislike, ninja hating on a skater cause of how he places his legs. do a smith on a handrail "Mr fake steez"
I was smithing rails many years before fake steeze got popular 😂
@@NinjaLifestyle you just an old man bro stop hating. no one cares that you did a kickflip 50 years ago
A lack luster part with a handful of rad shit 🤷🏻♂️
Great way to put it
I wouldn’t say I have all those negative feelings towards pee funk but I’ve just never found his skating interesting, this is coming from a guy who likes the east coast style over tricks, Pee Funk
I'm so weak this dude hates T Funk....this made my night thank you I just found out some bad news!!
you and gifted hater are doing god's work 🙏
Someone clearly has never been to the China banks😂
Are they impossible to skate? Didn't two guys casually ride over the bench in this exact same video part? You can't ride over a bank holding a beer smiling and laughing, THEN when you bend your leg slightly differently and do a small ollie it suddenly becomes the craziest spot ever. Then again Thrasher decides your opinions for you so...
@@NinjaLifestyle you say that till you go to the spot…
This guy is basically a sketchy lower quality version of Erick Winkowski. Erick is 10x more stylish and just generally a better skater, plus doing it on an 80’s shape board.
Look at guys like Andy Anderson too, who could easily emulate this style just for fun, while doing way more difficult tricks.
That’s my opinion. Doesn’t matter.
T funk just goes so fast its unbelievable. Wincowski is a vert skater bro he could never, and andy simply would never go this fast in the streets😭
Why are Capri pants a thing?
Stop spending time hating man just let people like what they like and you can like what you like.
That’s so funny. I love skate content and surf content and lately I see a lot of surfers practicing their surf techniques on a skateboard on flat ground and vert ramps. Acting like it’s impressive to skid ur board and make wildly over dramatic turns.
Most of the time I don’t even think they can Ollie lol
Probably you haven’t surfed. Doing that in surfing is EXTREMELY difficult. They’re “training” for it. It’s that difficult. And I’m not joking either go fucking try surfing yourself.
I mean if they are practice for surfing, why would they need to Ollie ?
@@ironleeFPS in surfing it’s difficult but on skate boarding it’s easy
I try to listen to what you are saying and really look at it from your point of view about Tfunk, but it’s hard to imagine he’s faking all of that lol it’s just his style and he’s really good.
For me, it really doesnt matter if its fake or not. If he feels cooler tucking his knee in, why not? And I like to see basic or easy tricks on cool spots or used in a creative way, its just more fun to watch. But I understand that for some people the technical/athtletic side is more important, fair enough. Thats taste imo
Someone earlier mentioned you can do jazz fingers after each trick and call it style... Doesn't make tricks harder tho
@@NinjaLifestyle sure, whatever. But i dont think hardest tricks equal best skating
@@bitumenboyy fair enough. i think that's where our opinions differ. cheers dude
love the amicability, these are great takes
Why do American YTers always have to shout to get their point across ?
because of this weird stupid idea called freedom
I was just thinking the same.
@@NinjaLifestyle Oh, freedom is it. Never heard that tired old chestnut before.
I dont think style has anything to do with it being necessary. It just adds a little extra to it and to me it just looks like he's having fun with it.
Not saying YOU but... The same people who would write a comment like this often turn around and say Braille and Revive is stupid when arguably... they are having a lot more fun and don't fake their leg movements.
How do people confuse style and steeze with this? dude has his own style and can shred. But homeboy is all over the place like a sloppy joe. When I think of steeze and good style, PJ Ladd, Mark Appleyard, Antwuan Dixon, P-Rod, Mike Mo, etc come to mind. a lot of brazilian skaters got it to. Skaters that do tricks with natural steeze to where it looks almost effortless for them. To me that's style.
Speak what you want, listen to what you don't want. Ninja, you're a clown. Let the guy ride the way he wants, it's not about whether it's difficult or not. The guy rides like that and that's that, he's not a "fake". Not to mention his attitude towards what skateboarding has become today is admirable. It's because of guys like him that skateboarding hasn't (yet) become a marketing competition with circus acrobat skateboarders dressed like stockcar drivers full of bank sponsors. If his ollie way is cool, that's fine! If his 50-50 way is cool, that's fine!
I repeat, it's not about whether it's hard or not, or what Trasher said or not. The way he rides is the way he rides, and that's that, accept it. The guy was even a SOTY finalist... and that's fine, mate! The concept of what is "fake" is very open and depends on interpretations, for example, for me, "fake" is a lonely 40-year-old guy who teaches kids how to dismantle a skateboard on a youtube video saying that the way a guy rides is not cool. I took the liberty of checking out your instagram profile, you know what? The way you ride is pretty weak (VERY WEAK) compared to T Funk. Envy is a painful feeling. But I'll give you a piece of advice, be cool, rethink the things you say that belittle other people's work, put yourself in your place, and be a little more humble. This is a video of immeasurable envy and mediocrity.
t funk would literally sue you lol
You say the guy's style is fake, and he sues me? Excuse me.
WATCH OUT FOR THAT CAR, that was a close one young man
😂
I wanna see that video part again where do I find it?!?
NEAT Black Ninja Video part on TH-cam only the ogs know
@@secretsociety81 I remember !
I'm glad someone finally said something about this.
They need to throw this whole style of skater away. The fashion, the skate style, the regurgitated trash garage band doom tracks, the neo-70’s pool tricks, it’s been beat to death. We only need one Lizard King.
we only need you shut yo ass
The 5-0 did have knee steez. And you say it’s after he landed? Was he supposed to do it before he landed?
I mean he is shredd’N but it’s not like he’s dropping in on a 40 foot wave 🌊 🏄♂️
According to the internet... it's more like a 115 foot wave LMAO
Ungifted hater
The knee tuck, while a lot of people might fake that, is a better form for absorbing impact and maintaining speed as you can use it to pump. Its a better base for control as well instead of being a straight squatter. Its pretty common with skaters who skate fast.
Weird that the biggest stair skaters in the world don't do that... but the guy who 5050s a curb in his thrasher part does. Interesting take
Absorbing impact?? Have you ever seen Joslin or Sheckler do this bs down 18+ sets?
@@mclarensaleenf7 absorbing impact AND maintaining speed not just absorbing impact, completely different styles we're talking about here
1 minute into this video and the screaming says it all.
