If you are like us, you know that Forrest Edwards is the best thing to happen to skateboarding in a while.
Infamous for his stint on SLAP’s 2010 One In a Million reality show contest, for dropping “not that gay” hammers while “not really trying,” and for his legendary answers on the Weekend Buzz show, he was recently invited to Street League to win the big bucks.
Problem is, that he’s a broke-ass dude whose flow sponsors won’t pony up enough dough to fly him to the Pro Open event in Barcelona.
Yes, yes, Street League is hyper-commercialized and makes you want to focus your board while puking Monster™-green vomit all over your computer, we get it, and that’s exactly why we should get Forrest out there, so he can show them what’s what. He’s the hero Street League needs, not the one it deserves, our dark knight.
Help support our beloved anti-hero, a guy with little chance to be successful outside of skateboarding, survive for just a little bit longer and have a shot at winning the contest and making Nyjah cry.
We’ve started an Indiegogo campaign to help make this happen:
We’re trying to get just enough money to fly Forrest out there, but tickets aren’t cheap. We’re putting up some cash, his sponsors are throwing in a little, and the rest is up to the Forrest fans, so let’s make it happen! Donate $10 or more and get a little somethin-somethin special for yourself too!
UPDATE: We heard that when someone told Forrest Edwards we were starting this campaign to get him to Barcelona that his only response was, “Oh, that’ll probably make them look pretty cool, huh?”
UPDATE 2: FUNDS RAISED!!! We’ll be seeing him out there!!

you aren’t either. I don’t understand what you ‘re so excited about. Hahhahaha, I bet you feel bad when you can’t land a “clean” switch 360. Bwahahahaha.

im very excited about watching fags getting offended by something that shouldnt offend them that much. it makes it easy to weed them out of normal homosexual people. regarding Forrest i dont give a fuck really. as for the clean sw 360, i dont know where this comes from but fyi i can do them both clean and dirty. fuck hesh anyway, i dont even have a clue what it means, for me its just a very gay word that got introduced to very young, imitating and gay kids through skating.
oh, i forgot, fuck you too

Are you angry?
Forrest sucks, the world burns and we ‘re seriously considering sending money for someone to travel to a contest….anyway, it’s not that he shouldn’t live his dream but it will not “rattle any cages”, he’s still going to compete. And he’s generally an asshole.
And I don’t give a shit if you are “good” at skateboarding, I was just being sarcastic.

i told you i dont care about Forrest but forgot to to say that i also dont watch street league. maybe this will let you understand that i really dont care about Forrests career neither do i give a fuck about who’s going to “rattle any cages”at street league. you are too retarded to understand (even after 2 comments) that the reason i initially commented on here was because i hate fags who pick reasons to act like fags. i hate people who are politically correct. the fact that you keep this argument going is implying that you either are one of these fags or are too dumb to understand what im on about. in my opinion you could be both. and im not that good at skating, i’ve just been skating for some time and find certain tricks very easy to do.
my regards and again, fuck you for being such a whiny asshole

Maybe irrelevant to the point but could we just all give AVE $10 for murdering it in the Vans video or something instead? I mean, I’d just assume somebody like that spend it on whatever the fuck than just give my money to a homophobic dickhead…
