Hey everybody!
Lately I've been thinking about why Half-Sideways or Angle Surf is hated so much. I shouldn't be caring about it so much, but I wondered.
I'm seeing alot of people just have pure hate against HSW and I don't understand why. It's just a style of surf you can do. I don't really care about if people don't react to me beating a WRCP or WR, that's fine with me. If you don't like it, then that's your opinion. What I don't understand is, why so many people seem to shittalk about it everytime it comes up. Mostly reactions are something like "HSW haHAA" or similar. Like yea, I get it you don't like it, but what is the point of literally being mean and shittalking someone because they surf that way. No matter how good you are doing it, you get shittalked about it.
I'm not saying that I'm complaining about it, since I don't really care if someone says some shit like above to me. I still do it and will do it, even if someone comes by and shittalks me for surfing HSW. I just like to know your opinion about why there is this hate about it in general.
Yeah, we aren't even close to being as good as the top surfers, the WR's aren't remotely close to being as good as the Forwards WRs, but it's a surfstyle you can do and people like it. We have a small community of HSW surfers which is nice, but seeing so much hate about it has me wondered.
It's always hate if you are using binds. I get it, it's kind of an adventage, but it keeps my fingers healthy. I use binds, yes, because using 4 fingers for surfing HSW hurts like hell after some time. It just makes it a bit easier. Maybe that's why people hate it? Because you have it a bit easier when using binds? But it doesn't really make the map easier. The map will stay the same difficulty using binds or not. So why hate it so much? I might not be around too long to be asking this, but it would be nice if you could post some examples to why you hate it (or dislike it) so much. And seriously, I don't care if someone just literally comments something like "It's just shit". Please just be nice and respectful, that's all I ask. I don't need pure toxic comments and I definitly don't care about a pure toxic comment.
People also say it's "eye-cancer", but I don't really have that problem. Yea, it's a 45° angle but it isn't bad. But if people have problems with it, I'm fine with it.
I'm having fun surfing HSW and probably will keep doing it for as long as I surf. It's just my way of surfing. I love it!
I don't seek attention with this post, it's mainly for understanding the hate a bit more (even tho it won't effect me in anyway).
I'm sorry for making it a bit long, but thanks for reading and considering dicussing it here.
