Ryan Sheckler On Fans & Haters

by The Editors on August 3, 2009

ShecklerRyan Sheckler sat down with Sports Illustrated’s Arash Markazi for a Q&A this weekend at the X Games and here’s what he had to say about his fans and haters:

My fans are the best fans in the world and my haters are the biggest haters in the world, and I love both of them. I [frigging] laugh at the haters. I laugh at them. It’s the most funny thing to see them. I try to put myself in their shoes and look at someone that’s doing way better than me and making way more money than me and I look at them and I’m proud of that guy. I’m happy for them. But the haters that are sitting there, running their mouth and talking [trash], they’ve never had to work for anything. They’ve never had the pressure of 100,000 people watching them. They’ve never been in that situation. So go do something productive with you life. Leave me the [heck] alone; I’m doing [stuff]. I got things to do with my life.

It’s amusing how he says all the haters “… never had to work for anything.” It’s that assumption that creates the haters in the first place.

leave my life alone by not appearing in axe, proactive, and other senseless commercials that obviously make you look like a kook to any skateboarder. good for you for being so good, i enjoy watching you. but you honestly can’t see why some people hate you? you come off as a showboat that only cares about winning and being the best, even when not in a contest. do all your kooky deodorant commercials in japan where no one will see them. at least they’ll be funny.
