  3. johnnnnn Says:

    so sick!!! RIP

  4. Neary Says:

    Don’t memorial edits usually show the person its dedicated to skating?
    RIP Waggoner.

    rip

  6. dizzy Says:

    The best thing to do in this situation is to get together and do something fun. So this was a very good idea. I know what its like to lose a friend. Keep strong.

  7. Travis Stewart Says:

    Rock on ATL. Don’t question the means in which they convey their memories, just know that they know best, and if this is their pathway, and then we shall all walk along side them. Keep strong.

  8. Xsjado Girl Says:

    Rip Josh

  9. w.N.H 2 Says:

    funny thing is they just did this since like last night cause I watched all of his edits last night on youtube. this was in my opinion very poor taste. This isn’t in memory of but a way to debut all these other riders. Search his name and he has like 8 videos which they could have used of him skating and doing good shit. I’m sorry to have to write this but seeing as how this person had the edit which I guess josh made or something along those lines they should have simply taken all of the footage they had of him and put this song or another one which is more personal and then put up his picture instead of holding the camera kinda steady. Nevertheless I still am very sad at his passing. I just pray that if I should go, my friends don’t give me a memorial edit with me not being in it not even once.

  10. what the fuck Says:

    yea i was kind of watching it waiting for his clips

  11. dan Says:

    agreed wnh2

  12. xsjado man Says:

    RIP.

  13. cody sanda's Says:

    wnh2 is an asshole!!!! i really doubt the atl kids thought “oh hey our friend died so lets use his name to get some exposure lolz”.

    they held a session in his name, because im sure if he was still alive he would want to see all his friends still skating. Thats it, no secret motives.

  14. dizzy Says:

    Yeah wnh2 that was a very disrespectful comment. These guys just lost their friend. The last thing they are thinking about is themselves.

  15. sss Says:

    wnh2 you have no friends to make a edit for you. probably just shitty clips of you skating on your own . looser

  16. d amkhinich Says:

    Ok haters here’s the thing. We had a two day session in honor of him. A memorial session and i took the clips and made a edit. What the hell are you talking about debuting the skaters? Are you saying that since our friend passed away we cant skate in honor of his name and make a edit? Well if not then fuck you cause you must not be a real true friend. Richard Williams made a edit for him last night for the funeral today. So if you dont like it then thats your problem, but dont you dare judge us when you dont know us or what we are like.

    R.I.P JWD

  17. John Kelso Says:

    Do you guys love rollerblading?

    Good. Now just be happy you’re still alive and well and able to that with your friends today.

  18. W.N.H.2 Says:

    Cody is a dumb fuck the video is on youtube and was posted in september of last year. You had a session in his honor. That’s great then why didn’t you shoot that footage instead of the same footage that’s up under the title of the skate park and is tagged with his name. Its okay that you were caught. Youtube is free and people can easily see what I’m saying for their own eyes. I’m sure he would have loved to know that you’re skating in his honor. THe problem is two things. He’s no where in it, as you try to get all upset at me and that Your footage isn’t from two nights ago but from A few months ago. While he was still alive. I also saw another clip your crew made with I believe just him and Richard WIlliams. That would have been more of a memorial tribute than what you posted. SImply put you can say that I’m an asshole for all you want, but I have lost friends and family. When I make a tribute video of them, It’s not a video with everyone else they knew in the video with no clips of them. That’s Something that you’re going to have to grow up to see. You’re young and eager to either do it the lazy way or the selfish way but I’m sure that if his family saw that and saw the title. They’d be pissed. If I was his brother, I’d be like where in the fuck is Josh.

  19. d amkhinich Says:

    Dear W.N.H.2,
    1) Its a MEMORIAL SESSION FOR JOSH. That doesnt mean he’s supposed to be in it.
    2) From youtube and i quote ” Added: March 30, 2008 ”
    3) Richard did make a memorial edit of only Josh, mine was different, get over it.
    4) Rollernews is free and people can easily see your an idiot.

    -David Amkhinich.

  20. tom Says:

    RIP Josh, cool edit guys.

    WNH2 is out of line and completely stupid, clips of adam mcmanus in red valos last september? ha..

    peace

  21. W.N.H.2 Says:

    SSS. Your attack on me is pointless. Others agree with my thinking and either don’t want to be blasted on here or just don’t care.

    Dizzy I just lost my fucking aunt in January and I made a tribute video of her too in two days. I took footage of people from my family, her husband, her friends and spent all night long editing it so that I could show it in the end but the most important thing that I showed was her. When she was alive and put to rest. That’s a memorial Tribute. Christopher Reeves had one and they had pictures of him from his Superman films when he was out on vacation with his wife, his family, his friends, his horses, his home and in the end they showed a lot of his fans mourning his loss.

    You guys can hate me all you want but the truth is that what I said isn’t in poor taste, it’s the fact that with all the footage they have, cause I have a lot of footage of my friends skating. The thing that they came out with to show the world their love for their friend was a edit with not one clip of him in it. Not one smile while he was hanging with them, not one shot of him horseplaying around with them.

    Check out a video called Living Anonymous. In the very beginning the bladers talk about their friend which I knew him as well. They showed pictures, clips of him skating while Garrett was talking about how he was when he was alive and they had several clips of him skating and kicking ass on the tricks he was lacing. That is a memorial edit.

    I once again feel your loss, but for you to try to find fault in my words is like trying to blame pros for us getting hurt. each person is responsible for his or her own actions.

    If my mother died I wouldn’t show clips of me, and my girlfriend, my car, her friends, her boss, Her sister, her brother, My dad and not show any clips of her. That right there is disrespectful. All those clips would have to incorporate her being either with them or running through the scene.

    You can hate me but the logic rings true.

  22. W.N.H.2 Says:

    check out your title “Intro to through our eyes” that would’ve been perfect.

  23. tom Says:

    wat ur saying is ur opinion and u shouldnt be telling people how to mourne their friends, u need to stop getting so worked up and offending the people who made this. leave it alone

  24. d amkhinich Says:

    tom - none of the footage was all. everything you saw happened in those 2 days.

  25. tom Says:

    yea dude i know i was bein sarcastic up ther lol sorry:P

  26. dizzy Says:

    wnh2 is a complete dick. These guys lost their friend. It is completely out of line to make any negative comments on this video or to even critique it. This isn’t fuckin film survey so just drop it.

  27. W.N.H.2 Says:

    bro you’re right, rollernews is free. It’s also a place where as we are suppose to come together to share our opinions and views about anything and everything. I’m not hating. I actually feel sorrow for Josh, even though I don’t know him personally. If I’m wrong about the time it is placed on there then I’m sorry. The fact still remains that there’s footage that’s out there that has him skating and that would’ve been more appropriate to show to the world as a memorial edit.

    On a separate note. I truly do feel your pain. I know that having to hear something like this is most likely very hard to take or hear. Don’t take this as a blast on your character. I know that you’re young and will continue to grow into the type of role models that we need in skating. The fact that you had a skate session in his honour is great, did you talk about what you remember about him though. Or what made him who he was . Erin did. Anyone who watches that video should’ve been able to tell from watching this that he was close to you. everyone should have said at least a little something about Josh. Talked about his personality, showed some pain or loss of a friend not having a great time at a sick park. That’s in my opinion. Take it or leave it.

  28. Scorpionking Says:

    Dude. WNH2 is harsh but I see his point. RIP Josh.

  29. mike harper Says:

    i love my boy josh… theres no need for drama guys

  30. colin hughes Says:

    nice job, david
    with i could have gotten a ride

  31. colin hughes Says:

    wish**

  32. The Truth Says:

    wow it seems like
    Cody Sanda’s.
    Dizzy,
    D amk,
    tom,
    and SSS
    are all really bitter at WNH2 when he said the exact same thing that Monkey Shoe and Neary said. That to me seems very childish if a few people agree then apparently there’s some validity to what is being said.

    Dan
    What the fuck
    Monkey Shoe
    Neary
    WNH2
    Scorpionking
    all feel like it was in poor taste.
    Perhaps you guys should stop trying to be so on the attack and listen to what they’re saying cause I do agree as well with them. I don’t care enough to argue though.

  33. Real Talk Says:

    Man this ain’t no fuckin memorial edit.. This was some bullshit. I was looking to see homie skating at least talking, shit at least a good steady picture of him and you gave me this bullshit. If I was his dad I’d be pissed as hell at yo ass. Ya niggas ain’t real homies. Real homies woulda kept shit on the mellow side and at least did somethin special for tha man. Ya punk asses when to go skate, something you do every damn day of yo miserable existance.

  34. Real Talk Says:

    This is pathetic. Tom Is Tom Hyser. The same guy that was foolish enough to lose epoch frames the same one who was foolish enough to mess up fizik frames. The same one that was foolish enough to go work for RB and take really talented riders and put them on a team that will do nothing for them. So that in two years they can feel resentment for wasting their time helping to build a brand that cares nothing about the riders or the people that buy their shit. Bah is sick with it and so is Rob G. How in the fuck do you turn a pro onto the flow team. Tom.. How. Once a pro, always a fucking pro Tom. Katie is pro, Davie Jones is pro Tom yet their on the flow team now. RB hasn’t gotten this much good hype since Davie joined the team. What happened to Willie Woo? what’s the deal with David Sizemore? What did you do to take care of all your riders RB/Tom? nothing. Yet you get the idea that you’re smart enough to call someone stupid for stating the truth Tom. This edit wreaks. It’s a sad excuse of a memorial edit. Your boyfriend D. Amkhinich was a selfish asshole to make this edit and call it a memorial edit. The correct title would have been a memorial session. Dizzy is ditsy for talkin shit to W.N.H.2 cause I’ve been watching what he says for a really long time now and homie only speaks the truth. We are taught the correct way to mourn people when we’re young. People may do it a little differently but we are taught that we shouldn’t be selfish at the time of mourning. This asshole was very selfish. A showcase of him and his friends and he knew that it would get played on Rollernews cause of the title and subject. Since Both David and Tom make so many wrong decisions. Here’s a question Tom since you’re so fucking smart. How’s Skatepile doing. You still own that right? oh no wait. You don’t cause you weren’t smart e-fucking nough to run it the right way. You always make the wrong business decisions like when you decided to bring in stupid ass bullshit like Alchemy frames which is owned by a fucking skateboard company. You may seem all nice and all but so was Forrest Gump. What have you done for this industry. You made K2 designs then got fired for them cause they were wack. THe only good thing you might have done was introduce us to soft shell boots. You did create suspension frames and fucked that up too. how in the hell did your shit cost so much back in the day. What did your engineer fuck you over or something and you were too stupid to pull out. Was it the manufacturer that screwed you and you couldn’t go to another one? I mean, damn dog you’re a big fuck up. You have good ideas but can’t be in charge of them or you’ll fuck things up. RB’s best skate ever came out when you were with them. The fucking frame is what you made sick and that’s it. You are an excellent frame maker and a fucking moron in life on everything else. You lost the communities respect when you decided to work for them. Shit I bet you were looking first at working for Salomon huh. What happened to Randy Spizer with RB Tom? They fucked him over. Just like you just did with These guys and just like David did with Josh Waggoner’s Memory.

  35. Landon Says:

    what the fuck, you guys dont even know the family, you dont fucking know us, if josh was still alive, he would want us skating, we skated for him. you didint know josh personally. you dont know shit. but “real talk”, how are you gonna talk about his dad being pissed at us for doing this? you dont know the facts, his parents supported us in making the edit. josh would have loved this edit.

  36. Landon Says:

    and why would you attack tom and his ideas? that doesnt have anything do with josh

  37. Real Talk Says:

    Landon. I don’t have to know the fam. To know that that shit you showed the world was some selfish bullshit. Your ass fuckin showcased alot of nobodies and to me and the world, the adult world of bladers what you did was unacceptable. You made a memorial edit. Key words Memorial edit and didn’t even show the man not once. The only thing you did was have a pic of him with push pins on some wood and fuckin not even a steady camera shot. My Nig. I have that LA video that wnh2 was talkin about and I looked at it and he was right. I saw and remember when Richard Taylor died, RB made a dope ass memorial edit for him and his fam. This shit was exactly that, Shit. Why the attack. Cause Yo boy I see him on here a lot and the muthafucka can’t even keep his own shit straight yet he’s callin someone “Completely Stupid”

  38. Real Talk Says:

    Maybe his folks were just happy that you thought enough of him to even give them something but let’s be Real. Real talk, yo that shit was and is wack. It’s like what the news did to Eddie Gurrerro when he died. That shit was wack as well. WWE gave him a dope ass memorial edit. Follow that example and leave just one nigga alone. I read all this shit. WHy did you find it so important to bash on one guy. One guy who was right about this shit.
    “If Josh was alive, he would want us skating, we skated for him” Bullshit. If he was alive and knew he was gonna go to blader heaven soon, I’m sure he’d be pissed that someone made a montage of his “Friends” skating and put it on rollernews instead of Keeping that shit to yourself. Why didn’t you put out a post on rollernews to tell people about a skate session in memory of Josh, you should have done what Richard did and done the damn thing right the first time. No one wanted to see your asses skatin and havin fun when a soldiers just fallen. Hell you wouldn’t catch hell if there were a few clips of him in that video.

  39. Real Talk Says:

    In regards to Tom. That cat lost his rights to talk when he started workin for RB. FUCK RB nigga. I was waitin for Epoch to come out. I called over to his shop and was all excited, I called about fiziks, I heard about his “new” skates on here. That man is a complete fuck up. I had K2’s and look how they ended. I knew Alex Broskow, I skated with Frankie when they let his ass go. I knew Spizer when they let his ass go too. I remember when they Let Fabiola go. That’s some treachous shit right there and to work for a company that acts like that means that you agree with their actions.

  40. flatblack Says:

    Wow. I’m really disappointed in our “community”.

    A bunch ridiculous comments.

    To Josh’s true friends and family, god be with you through these tough times.

    …and as far as Real Talk’s BS rant about his hate for the industry that has nothing to do with Josh, go do something. Let these people do their thing. You’re making yourself sound like a complete idiot. With all of your talk, you’re disrespecting Josh’s memory more than you say the kids edit is.

  41. Anthony Timmons Says:

    GUYS!!!! Every one of you shut up!!!!! all of you! Kelso is the only one who has the only right to talk!!! You try carrying your best friend to the only place that he’ll ever be!!! Kelso, me, and 10 other guys were close to him like that. Josh wanted us to skate! Josh would have loved seeing all of us skating for him! I know he ate that up with a smile! Do you know how hard it is to skate hard while trying not to cry? I did that because Josh would have done the same for me! You want to know something……..I had the same thing happen to me when I was 17 and I wasn’t wearing a helmet. I was out for a week. Josh was up there for a few days praying for me. the whole week people skated and then came to see me. Thats what I wanted! As for the Family………They loved BOTH edits! I loved the one of Josh more than anything in the world! They also loved the one with us doing what we do best for Josh! Which was skating! So for the love of GOD!!!! Please PLEASE stop all this stupid drama! We in Atlanta do things the way we DO! Thats how we do things! So please stop hating. You like it or you don’t thats fine I love it, everyone in ATL loves it, and the Family loves it more! Just stop PLEASE!! I’m begging you all to just stop and go skate!!
