Eflixxx is Hoodlum's 35th active member!! Thirty-Fucking-FIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man I used to be worried about our numbers. Fuck that. I aint worried about shit. We all throw down. We're all responsible for our teams but I want all of us to remember one thing..
We're still a team. There ain't no "I" in TEAM.
People.. Just because we have 35 ACTIVE members, doesn't mean you slack on your activity. If anything, you work HARDER because there are so many of us.
I also want us to skate together even more. I know some of us can be annoying to others but at the end of the day. We're a team. Regardless if you're on a branch or not. We were Hoodlum Family as a whole before the branches, and we're Hoodlum Family as a whole even on our branches...
Once again I have to say I'm psyched to have Flixxx on the team. It's crazy to see him reppin Hoodlum, now. We got your back man. It's REALLY time to throw down harder than ever.
Wanna know how DEEEEP we are?
Including inactive members. We're 45 deep. Eflixxx is the 45th Current member of Hoodlum.
Not adding the 3 who are confused as to whether they're apart of the team or not (i really dont count them because they're lost in life)
That makes 48. 2 short of 50 fucking members..
I'm not even gonna get into the branch that hasnt even been made yet. That's gonna knock the team up from an active 35 to an active 40+.. making us a whopping 50+ deep team.
50 fucking people.. Now you can bitch, complain and cry about the numbers alllll you want. Ain't no denying we're the biggest team to hit this game. but while you're doing all the bitching and complaining.. think about how dope and fortunate we are to have 35+ people we can call our team member and still call ourselves a team after almost 2 years coming October 22nd. 35+ people we can play not just skate with, but multiple games with. I've gotten a group of people together to have fun. Regardless of what game we play. That alone, makes it all worth it when you bring people together to have fun.
Think about the way we've taken this team shit to a new level. Ain't no such thing as TOO big anymore. Sure.. not a lot of people would want a 50+ member team. But who can say they have one on skate? I salute teams regardless of their team member count. (Shouts out to AnimalMachine, Frequency, The Golden Standard, Recession Free, PKS that's STILL here. And last but DEFINITELY NOT LEAST.. Doppelganger. STILL HERE!!!! TOGETHER.. BANGIN!!!
I don't recruit for numbers. I'm also not afraid of the number anymore. I WILL however try to keep it at a minimum as much as I can but if the right skater comes along, i'll snatch him up. The "right" skater could mean anything. I won't say what but I will say I dig a fun person over skill any day.
Another thing you can't deny is our ridiculous ROBUST style spread. We have one if not THE most universal team on this game. You can't say we all skate the same. No 2 teams are alike. NO 2 TEAMS. You can't call us "robots". There is a style to suit every kind of person who watches our videos.
You got the ultra realistic..
You got the Realistic, but pushing the line, doing shit that makes you question its realism.
You got the "wild in your face"
You got the "FOR FUN" AND BANGING OUT, WITHOUTADOUBT, HIT And RUN kind of skaters.
You got the calm and mellow..
You got the RAW and LOUD..
You got the guys who just throw BANGER after BANGER.
You got the Seriously TECH-hit shit in ways you couldn't think of kind of skaters.
You got the MIXED guys who can play both sides of the fence with the skating..
And that can be just one of our teams at any given time :)
It goes on and on. You get my drift. We're like a one stop shop for all your viewing pleasures. Hahaha. That's what I wanted. I wanted a team that was well rounded and DOPE to whoever. We do this for us.. the props are an added bonus. Props are fun tho! :)
I'm glad to say I'm Hoodlum.
If you're a Hoodlum, you need to realize what you're taking on. You become 50+ people. You become the amount of people on your branch. You become apart of a group of people who love the hell out of this game and play the way they want no matter what people say. We've come a LONG way. We're just getting started tho :)
HOODLUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
