Title: Sharkmartin/A22 Insta-beef
Post by: Sammm on February 02, 2015, 08:26:47 AM
Surely I cant be the only one who saw this?

Sharkmartin (Jeff Martin I think?) hates Adam22, got drunk and made an IG post explaining this. Follow 600 comments talking about what BMX is really about, and who's to blame for Stevie Churchill's apparent alcoholism. Fucking lol

I can't work out how to link a post from PC based instagram, but it's this one

instagram.com/sharkmartin, 3rd post in. A lot of dumb kids posting, but if you can be fucked to scroll to the top there's some typical OSS/Adam22 gold

Why would anyone want their son to receive oral sex from a22?

Alcoholism? Isn't he like 20 or some shit? Don't most people get fucked up around that age? I get how you can not like a blog but I don't get how you can say it ruined bmx. Did MTBr or Pinkbike save mountain biking?

I dont really like Adam either. But I just dont read anything he post or follow anything he does anyway, so he has no impact on my world of BMX. People should just stop care, that is was BMX is to me, no caring...

I agree with this. If you don't like Adam, just don't follow him at all. Any press he gets short of something that would ruin him (like child molestation or some shit) just feeds the fire. He is like a Kim Kardashian or Paris Hilton of BMX, easy to hate but really fucking good at building his brand.

Ahhh, he's not quite as good at building his 'brand' as you think.

The quicker everyone ignores what he does, the quicker it's all gone.

My thoughts exactly. I'm sure I saw a post by Adam a few months ago saying he was still buying Stevie's beer because he wasn't old enough. I very much doubt Stevie is an alcoholic in the fact that he relies on it otherwise he gets the good ol' shakes, it's just that he drinks a fair bit more than he should given his age. Fuck it, he's young, let him party.

I don't care much for adam/OSS. I check thecomeup maybe once a week because it's nice that most watch-worthy bmx videos are all in one place, but I ignore all the childish shite that comes with it like I imagine most of us (other than Rusty) do too.

That's a point, ol' Rustin, whats your input on Stevie being a liquor fien given you work/ed at OSS or whatever?

Yeah not bad thanks. I started riding again (rarely) after a solid 6 months without. I'm telling myself I'll stick with it this time but I guarantee there will be another hiatus aha/
I might spray my bike this week and post some pictures.

I have not been on TCU in a little over a year. Will not watch any vids hosted on their YT account. Don't follow any of their stuff on any social media.

It was awful to see that mainly because of the oss minions talking shit just to talk shit trying to defend oss and not really ubderstanding the situation they were commenting on.
But there is a lot of kids 4plasticpeg freecoasting. Cant tell you how many local kids have this setup with huge ass bars that are shorter than me and cant do shit. Most of which have OSS stickers on their bike. Doesnt bother me until they ask if i can bar.

They index content from around the web so TCU stuff is on there. Very easy to avoid it though.

He is a knob but I am quite enjoying those big interviews he's been doing. He's at his best when he goes into street riding nerd mode.

The interviews are decent but that motherfucker was milking other people's videos to get page views way before he did any sort of original content.

And in the Big Daddy interview he admitted he "puts on a character for the kids". He sure as hell ain't Mirra so what character is he putting on based on his brands? Great message, as if the world needs more douche rockets following blindly.

as if anyone thought big daddy actually acted like that for real. he was pretty funny when those daddy vision videos first came out (the bits where he was actually riding)
