ok first off…i havnt met anyone with the exception of maybe a few people who has a more solid style…are you watching the same reel dude? its true he could prob bend his knees a lil more but saying hes not solid or doesnt have good style says to me your just trying to hate on my boy casue your boy got booted.
there are alot of park clips because yes he does skate alot of park, but also because despite living in atl its aparently hard to actually get a session together other then the park. and not to mention part of the reason for the edit was for woodward.
as for basic jawn…just shut the fuck up huh? you CANT be original nemore. people really needa cut that shit out. everyones like “psh he did a 5 switch up with spins in and out (which richard can do probably) thats so gay he needs to do more solid stuff” and then when you see someone do solid stuff you say” jesus christ this is boring” i mean where does it end.
richard hasnt been skating that long and im sure hell make you eat your words…and that goes to all the haters.
and ya know your makin a big mistake too because i met the dude for a weekend and i got his back for life. and all you negative people wont be able to see or experience this rare all around kind dude because your too self absorbed in bitterness

When Obedobe got onto Eulogy I was happy for him and surprised cause he’s filipino and that’s great. It’s a great step for other filipino riders to see that. Same as the Yasutoko’s for asian riders. it simply brings people that wouldn’t normally get involved into this sport to really check it out cause they have someone that they have something in common, no matter how big or small it is.

Richard is very talented and I hope he makes something out of this opportunity he’s been given. like make RB actually put out a descent video with all their riders in it. Or maybe just show us how good their new skates are by your skills.

Stop making things worse than they are and simply support the rider, you don’t have to support the company to be happy for the fact that he’s sponsored. That’s a big thing.

First off, its not about his race and really, who gives a shit. The kid is good, but he’s not a well rounded skater. He only grinds. LSk, yes there are a ton of kids that should be sponsored, but aren’t. And yes it does suck that there not. But regardless they keep skating anyway because they love it. I also agree with you LSk, since Tom got on board RB, some how your seeing a lot more ATL kids on RB. It really sucks when Katie Ketchum (pro girl rollerblader) and David Jones (just turned ASA pro and an amazing park skater), just both got dropped to the Flow team. What bullshit is that. Your pro, now you get dropped back down to flow team. Once your a pro, you stay a pro. Unless you get dropped from that team, then your just out looking for another sponsor. In my eyes RB will never be what it used to be in the old days. They’ve lost their mojo.

Dear ‘harrie,’
You just contradicted the hell out of yourself brah. You obviously still take race into account when judging a persons skating or otherwise (I assume). You just unintentionally revealed yourself bro-ham; not cool.

Richard. From one black skater to another.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA”:D::D:D::D:D:D:D

but seriously….what his skin colour to do with skating?, i have just as much comon with any white, black, chinese…we all skate….
or are u going to tell me “u dont know what its like being black”….

It has everything to do with my statement. You can name the number of black pros on two hands, there’s less than twenty black sponsored skaters, it’s not a race thing but it’s a proud that one of us was good enough to get in, Mike Johnson, Rachard, Julian, Dre, Montre, Nicky Adams, Matt Andrews, M. Thompson, Black Mike, Frankie Morales ( i think) and that’s it. So stop with your trying to make my statement a racist statement. I’m sure that the latino world was thrilled when Louie Zamora came onto the scene cause there weren’t too many latinos in the limelight or on the scene either. Or how about Shima, or Eito, there’s a few amount of pros and ams of different races so it’s good to see a mixture that can represent the world.

Well the way ur puting it is that all the latino skaters are one big(or small) family :D
and the same goes for black skaters…
ive got some talented friends who are black aswel and skate really well…
but the thing is…they dont really care wether a pro is black or white, they just his skating and maybe his personality if that pro ever comes close.
my point is that is just doesnt matter where ur from what skin color you have…its all good.
let me put it to you this way, if richard williams was white, then you wouldn’t be as impressed with him as you are now.
so just let the whole skin color, race thing go, and just take people for…people
