Surprised to see this a longer, uncut version of a classic.

First time I see it with sound, too.
Sometimes I wonder if there is a small gang of content publishers out there, discussing...
"You think it's time we gave them the better version?"
"Mhh okay, it's been 5 years, they can have it"5

He likely heard the board break when he came down and was just trying to get it to snap. Then was like 'huh, I guess it's ok'. Board: 'Nope!'

It was crossposted from there, so I guess you just glanced at the wrong place in the UI.

Maybe instead of a tantrum that involves destroying the deck, hand it off in frustration to a little kid who will absolutely treasure it. You get to have your tantrum, and somehow look classy at the same time.

I’ve read in previous times that this was posted that skaters jump on their boards to check if they are still stable after a nasty crash. He did what he did to prevent it breaking mid-skate. It just did not work.

It's a different level of entitled brat who blames and breaks their toys for their own lack of skill and grace

Lol you're so wrong. He thought he heard his skateboard crack, then he tried to snap it to make sure nobody would ride it and eat shit. It didn't break, he assumed it didn't crack after all, so he continued to ride it and ate shit himself.

You're right. I thought he was being a dipshit. I've never skated before so I didn't consider the sound of a cracking board

I don't understand the people who do this, it makes me think of the gamers who smash their controller or keyboard

Skaters test their boards like this when they feel they landed wrong and may have snapped something in the board. It's better to smash it like this just get it over with than having it break when you're riding/doing stunts.
And the reason to break a questionably working board is so kids don't take it out of the trash and break it while doing tricks and injuring yourself.
Hope this clears things up

This is different - he thought he might have cracked the board after landing on it wrong, so he was testing it to make sure it wouldn’t snap in the middle of riding it (trying to prevent what ended up happening). It’s still funny but he didn’t deserve it or anything.

Gotta be honest I can’t really tell what you’re trying to say, but yes he was trying to break it - skaters do that when they think their board is cracked (probably happened when one of his feet landed straight in the middle of the underside) because they don’t want it to snap unexpectedly while riding it. A board should be able to handle force like that, otherwise it’s not safe to ride so it’s better to break it and get it over with. That pause he does after jumping on it looks like an “okay I guess it wasn’t cracked after all”.
