But really, he doesn't do anything different or exciting. He does the same tricks everyday of his life and it's boring.

I want to see him push as hard as he can and do a foward flip down a drop or something.

Not the same old formula: (insert stance here)(insert heelflip or kickflip here)to(insert grind here)to(insert heelflip or kickflip here) on a (ledge or rail).
As much as I like that type of skating it is pretty trendy to be creative these days, to the point that you're not even being creative by doing so. Back in the early 00's and late 90's you could actually do a wallride and be considered creative, now every kid and his best friend who can hardflip a 7 stair is doing that type of shit. Like I said, I enjoy that type of skating, I myself am forced to abide to that trend due to lack of "spots"

For me it comes down to seeing the terrain fully taken advantage of.  And finding new unskated shit to skate.

I think P Rod has loosened up his style a bit over the past year. He seems like a good guy with a good head on his soldiers and has yet to do something as lame as having a tv show or launching a rap career.

what about an acting career...
I wouldn't consider acting as wack as crying on a tv show or pretending to be Lil Wayne
It's funny that you mention that because I was at the skatepark yesterday, steady ollying the 7 stair they justt had built and noticed that there was this ledge to slanted wall thing so I ollied over the ledge, did the wall ride and got out. Some kid who was seeing how many tres he could do in a row was critisizing me.

So would you consider steve berra creative since he makes his own spots? In my opinion, to be creative you have to do shit noone is doing. Omar hippie jumps bushes, Dill does tech manual shit that none of the flip to manny flip out technicians would even think of, John Motta does wallride nollies to nose/tailslides on curbs THAT'S creative not Nick Trappasso or Austyn Gillete doing a wallride or a polejam in their brown cords and Ralph Mouths.
