So, how long until Tricking becomes an overly commercialized shit sport with a bunch of shitheads performing on TV with "Pepsi" tattooed on their foreheads with absolutely no originality to their moves and combos?

I don't know about you guys, but I like how Tricking is sort of "underground" thing. And how it just peaks its head up into the world of XMA. But wouldn't it just be super shit if it became a big ESPN 2 deal?

Seriously, I was watching some ESPN 2 the other day and there was a fucking "AMERICAN NATIONAL JUMP ROPE CHAMPIONSHIPS"... what the fuck??? And some of these dudes where basically doing tricks while jumping rope... except, it totally sucked!!! They all did the exact same moves! With the exception of one guy who did the shittest B-Twist through the rope ever.

But imagine if this happened to tricking and then we got an EA Sports game with playable characters like Manny Brown, Jujimufu and the unlockable Antoine?

It'd be fucked up that Tricking got commercialized... but atleast we could all stop tricking and just play the game right.

The dream of humans everywhere. To live life through a computer and to grow a fatass and die of a heart attack at age 41.

its pretty cool that not a lot of people do tricking because that makes us tricksters rare and stand out...and rare is good. although i would like to play a tricking game, that sounds fun.

IDK, a pure tricking game might seem a little boring as far as location and environment interaction. Just to be at a gym or outside in a circle of people could get a little boring, but it seems like a good concept. If they combined it with parkour, then that might be a little more exciting. Using your environment to pull off crazy stuff might appeal to a much wider variety of people, and thus keeping tricking as somewhat underground and not in the mainstream. I can just imagine some fat kid playing the game and pulling of something like a snapuswipe in the gam and being like WTF?!

I really don't know if people would be able to appreciate pulling off massive combos and huge tricks unless they themselves trick.

I can't see tricking going any further than skateboarding has. In fact, less so.

No, no parkour or just simple tricking game, that type of gameplay would be compared to mastururbating at other peoples samplers! I would like to see some beat-em up or at least fighting game wit tricks.

Stuff like tricking, bboying, and parkour just isn't fun unless you're actually doing it.

In a game there would need to be a motive, a reason why you're tricking, or bboying, or parkouring. Maybe you need to trick or bboy battle, maybe you're running away from cops, maybe you're sesshoumaru or Tony Jaa and kicking people's asses with tricks because they stole your elephant.

Can you imagine some retarded MMORPG game where all you do is go around handing in resumes and working for money to go to tricking gatherings? I dunno about you guys, but I'd rather go out and trick than play a game like that.

If commercialisation does take place I'm sure everybody with a brain in this forum (which unfortunately isn't too many people) will protest and rape some babies or something horrible like that.

You see what happens when you commercialise something that's underground? BABIES GET RAPED.

TKD_Andy
Jan-24-07, 03:43 AM
there already is a PK game! They were going on about it on jump britain or w/e.

anyways, i dont really see tricking getting that commercialised, for the following reason: If a kid sees someone on TV on a skateboard, they can go buy a skateboard and ride around on it. But if they see someone do a 540 on tv, they'll probably jump around in their garden until they get tired then give up.

Tricking is unique too because you dont need anything to get started. Therefore theres very few products you can market for people 'starting' tricking. I mean you all know about eigo and noni, but thats as far as it goes really.

lets just hope it stays underground.

Jan-24-07, 03:43 AM
i cant see tricking getting commercialised on the level of skateboarding cos you have to be fairly fit and strong to pull off most tricks so fat 10 year old kids will have no chance.

Okay so if what TKD Andy said and there is a parkour game then its being narrowed down. Because there deffenetly is a bboy game coming out in canada (think its out in the states) pretty soon. So parkour games, bboy games, whats left? just jump right into tricking games? BAH!

Jan-24-07, 05:53 AM
The parkour game is for the PSP and it sucks donkey balls.

I can't see tricking becoming commericialized because of the amount of dedication and training it entails, much more so than other "sports." But I could see individuals getting commercialized, but as stuntmen or acrobats, like Jackie Chan, not as a trickster.

Let's keep it underground and kill anyone who breaks our laws.

Someone already tried taking tricking to the public. Mick Chat. He had the XMA clothing for sale and everything. No one bought into it because.... well... XMA is lame. People actually started calling Mike Chat the Tony Hawk of martial arts. So basically he busted out on his friends to sell out and become a joke. However, to people that don't actually board.... Tony Hawk is awesome.

Tricking won't ever become that big. Too much of a steep learning curve. With skating you can just roll and around and have fun and in parkour you can just jump off stuff to begin with. With tricking though the basics take a lot of time to learn like backflips and 540s.

Mickey
Jan-25-07, 10:34 AM
Problem is. Too people who dont trick its like "wow thats a nice little jumpy bout thingy. Do a backflip. I dont think tricking will ever take off like that. But its already pretty big in america. Trickers are just classed as martia artists really. So the only place u might see tricking is in a film for a brief second or in the next Black eyed peas video.

Dave C
Jan-25-07, 11:16 AM
Every attempt to bring tricking mainstream has failed, and I can tell you exactly why. Because everyone who's ever done it has had the ENTIRELY wrong approach.

Alright, check it out. When I started tricking it was just me and my friend Steve. Over the course of the years, the number of people tricking in my area has gone from 2 to probably about 30. This is entirely from word-of-mouth interaction between groups of people and from everyone who's heard about it, 30 people have decided to take the time to start training.

I wonder how many people know it exists expressly because of me and my friend Steve? A rough estimate would make me think the number was easily in the hundreds. Anyone who knows me knows exactly what I'm talking about when I tell them I went tricking.

So why is my approach so much better than Mike Chat's if he's got a fucking website and a squad of advertisers and a discovery channel special? Granted I know he's turned a lot of 8 year old kids into 540ing XMA hoodlums, but why are the kids training with me hitting boxcutter raiz corks in under a year?

Because to me, tricking is a lifestyle, a passion, an obsession. For Mike Chat it's a way to make money. I emphasize the technical, stylistic aspects of tricking. Mike Chat emphasizes the rigid, Dojo-inspired training methods. If you took XMA kids out of their classes and put them in a session at my gym, where it's balls to the walls every day, I think they'd progress a lot faster than they would being taught by Mike Chat. But that might be because Mike Chat isn't really that good of a trickster...

I think when people stop trying to market it and just start trying to EXPOSE it, then the time will be ready.

that's a very good point you made there :good:

i really hope tricking stays underground, if it would be mainstream it would spoil all the fun of the reactions of non-tricking people and the showing off at random places. when i say i can backflip people are like "wow!", simply because they think it's physically impossible. for me that's the fun of tricking.
i hate everything that's commercialising tricking. whenever i see a music video on tv that contains tricking moves, i immediatly turn it off, because it pisses me off immensly. black eyed peas for example: i already hated their music (fake ass bitches that call their music 'funk', fuck off!), and after i saw that clip of that annoying 'pump it' song i hated them even more. same goes for madonna.

tricking being underground has a few downsides though. it annoys me a lot when some people act can act so stupid about or lifestyle. for example, when i was a school a couple of days ago, i found out a teacher of mine does kung fu. so i asked him if he could butterfly, then this annoying classmate shows up and saying: "butterfly wtf? you have watched too much matrix man!".
another example: when i was watching some bboying clips at school a couple of weeks ago, that same classmate shows up, points at the dancing bboys, and asks: "why do they do that?", and i was like: "uhh, it's their hobby i guess", he: "but why?"
damn people like he just need a good punch in the face.

For everyone getting their panties in a wad about if tricking became mainstream...

Would it really take the joy out of doing a flashkick?

Would it really make you feel like you were less of a badass while doing a boxcutter?

Would it have any effect on your training (other than making you train harder)?

I submit that it would not.

In fact, maybe if knowledge and understanding of tricks became more widespread you wouldn't have so many people ignorantly smiling through your 720, hook, btwist s/t cork combo and then asking you to do another backflip.

I don't think it'll ever be widely practiced, but I could definitely see it becoming a sport that people watched on TV. Just because the "muggles" can't do it doesn't necessarily mean they wouldn't want to watch someone else do it. Most UFC fans don't do MMA, most motocross viewers don't own a dirtbike and there are all kinds of people that watch the X-games that couldn't ride a skateboard/a bike/rollerblades if their life depended on it.

Point being, if tricks went "mainstream" there would be a relatively small increase in actual practitioners and a massive increase in public awareness and appreciation. That's not really a bad thing.

Jan-25-07, 09:30 PM
Yup, I sure hope it stays small. That's the great thing about the tricking community, it's like one big bunch of friends or something. Like at a gathering, you wouldn't need to push through a huge mass of fans to get Juji's autograph.. Geez that would be gay :tongue: And it's true that tricking is MUCH harder to start than other sports (the very first proper trick can take up to 3 months) thus limited commercialization..

Swartz
Jan-25-07, 10:37 PM
Yeah Mike Chat-a-ram-a-butt.

Bubba, that btwist-round in your avatar is disgustingly awesome.


Also, I think we've concluded already that tricking will become bigger but not really mainstream. I stick by my original opinion. I'd say it'd stop short of skateboarding. You all made a lot of good points. It seems the majority are overly concerned about it being mainstream and you shouldn't. It's too difficult and you can't really commercialize an activity like this, at least not without twisting it into something else, like XMA.

I also liked Hap's post. If it does become a little more popular (and it probably will at least a little), there's really not any big disadvantages and in fact, some advantages.

No matter what happens, tricking will still be an activity for the few, so all of you quit worrying and bitching about where it's heading.

it would be good for the sport.... probably... more publicity, possible chance of making money out of it. It could be like what happened to beatboxing or even breakdancing. Except its alittle different kids trying to make noises with their mouths and spin on their backs then doing backflips...

i agree with you hap, however...

you used motocross as an example, now most people will watch motocross and if someone does a superman indian air and it doesnt look 'good' then they'll say "wow that guy sucks ass!" even though he's doing something absolutely incredible.

I fear the same could happen to tricking, you could carry on but there would just be a MASSIVE increase in non-trickers going round saying "You're shit!" just becuase you're not as good as the people on MTV.

I can just see it now *hap is doing boxcutters in the park*
little kid - hey dude, u trick right?
Hap- Yep
Kid - Yeah well your doing it wrong i saw this guy on tv and he does it way better than you.
Hap- NINJA VANISH!
Kid - *neck snaps*
Hap- NINJA APPEAR!
Hap- yeah, well fuck you MTV boy.

aaaaaaanyway that went a bit off topic, but you know what i mean.

Ha ha, nice scenario... and I see where you're coming from but let me put it to you a different way.

It's kinda like when I'm spitting flows on the street corner with a random group of guys and then some kid comes up and says, "You freestyle right? Well I saw this guy on MTV that does it better..." Yeah, that's why he's on MTV... that's also why I'm constantly perfecting my craft (fuck MTV by the way, I'm just using it as an example).

If you're afraid that someone is going to criticize you because they actually know what you're doing... that's basically saying, "I don't want tricks to go mainstream because people would realize that my technique isn't perfect and I'd like to bask in my imperfections without criticism."

It goes back to my assumption that it would just make you train harder...

Also, when "haters" approach me it usually goes more like this:

Hater: "Hey you trick/rap, right?"
Me: "Yep, your powers of observation are simply astounding!"
Hater: "Yeah, well you're doing it wrong, I saw this guy on TV and he does it way better than you."
Me: "Really, well can you do it better?
Hater: "Um... ah... err...
Me: "Well... you can either step up and get shut down, or STFU." :wicked:

Then if the guy actually CAN do it better:
Me: "Ninja Vanish"
*neck snaps*
:ninja:

I'd like to take this opportunity to compare Tricking to Goatse guy's ass. Sure, he can stretch his ass in some sick ways, and thats like the public side of tricking, it can get stretched and get pretty mainstream, but the same as the goatse guy's ass, once you let go and stop stretching i think it'd shrink back to its original size.

Ok, ive thought about goatse enough for one day...

Agreed, it's too hard



True dat, as i said in my previous post, it's not like we'd be bringing tricking to the 'masses', tricking is far too hard for people to just take up as a semi-hobby alongside every other 'extreme soprt' they do



Exactly what I was thinking. Tricking is probably one of the hardest physical things for a human being to do, if you're even reasonably good at it. Too many people are fat and lazy. At my old highschool there were 3 people who could trick, including me. Tons of other kids would come and be like "ZOMG do a wall flip" - and then they would try, bail out, and never come back again.

In my opinion, the closest tricking will come to the mass public is through martial arts/action movies. Tony Jaa is a prime example of what I'm talking about.

where i live, maybe 10 people know what tricking is or parkour.

But, a tricking game would suck, i mean, press x for run up, L1 for backflip. to easy, or press o and x at the same time to get a fully sick combo!

Swartz
Jan-27-07, 12:36 AM
Yeah Jon I know breakdancing would be a better comparison than tricking, and like I stated it can't be marketing at all like tricking would be. Was just throwing out an example. Breakdancing is the prime example though, you're right. I can't see it going past that. It really is the same type of thing in the end, I mean a little of tricking's influence is breaking afterall, but in the end they're both about doing difficult moves and trying to outdo the other person (if you're into it at a competitive level anyway). Both are really just done for fun though.

I'd rather be really awesome at tricking before it gets whored, then i have a shot at being on TV and getting paid to trick, selloutFTW

i came to the exact same conclusion, plus, it would mean we could possibly teach it as well, and access to gyms may be a little easier... we may even have mini judo mat/gym type areas made if it got popular enough... i dunno i think i'm just overthinking a little though :P


hell, i think orginised tricking battles, (proper non XMA ones ha) would be sweet

completely agree, it would be cool to battle other people in the street, like this vid http://youtube.com/watch?v=WZ0C1rwczPM

it would get shit stories about people getting hurt and shit from it though, like parkour...

If you are into tricking with the intent on cashing in on it, not only are you dillusional but you're in it for the wrong reasons. Most people, when they have bills to pay get a job. Joe Eigo is in it for the money. Don't be that guy. Don't be Joe Eigo.

Yeah, if I enjoy doing this and I can make money doing it, why the fuck not? And Joe Eigo isn't just in it for the money, he's a douche for completely different reasons (See MOC thread).

Who cares who the fuck I am? If you are a good trickster and you want to be a stunt man, then good for you. I don't care. It seems to me though that getting into tricking initially as a career choice is a bit ludicrous. I wasn't trying to burn KJER (although I have no idea who the fuck HE is either), I was just trying to make a comment. More to the point, I was poking a little more fun at Joe Eigo, but apparantly I did that wrong too. Obviously Eigo has a whole grocery list of problems, I was only pointing out one of them.

And as for you, User Name... I might just go do that.
