Great rider, but i hate 95% of Adam LZ fans. Buncha dick riders, cover their frame in his stickers, make annoying "webisodes" (i made one a few years ago. Realized it was really gay though), only talk about LZ in discussions about pro riders (i.e. "You see that new hucker edit?" "No idrc but have you seen the new LZ webisode? It was funnier than the last 75 of them. Oh you.haven't seen it? Dude lets go watch all of them right now. LZ is life.") talk about how they want to ride just like LZ, etc. I don't mind watching his clips that he posts on Facebook, but i won't watch his "webisodes". I think he is highly over rated and obnoxious, though he does represent BMX in a good way. His ANTI-SCOOT thing he has going on is obsurd. I understand that a lot of little scooter kids at parks can get in the way and be annoying, but to judge everyone who rides a scooter off that is ignorant. Taking advantage of the huge fanbase of little kids that are obsessed with him and basically telling them to go out and hate scooterers is just wrong to me. There is a problem with this generation that roots from lack of discipline and peers teaching them young to do wrong, and this is a fine example. I know i would be a little pissed if i rolled up to a park and saw a bunch of skaters rocking "anti-bmx" stickers and gear, in fact i would probably avoid them and skip out on an opportunity to make new friends. And im sure there's plenty of little scooter kids that go to the park hoping to make new friends just to meet a bunch of people who, joking or not, have it labeled on their clothing and ride that they dislike scooters. Pretty intimidating to a little kid.
