WTF!?! hoodride is back?

[beetlemandan]

stumbled across this site:

http://hoodrider.com/

i thought that the "hoodride" guy was still universally hated. what the heck? did everyone forgive him and start over? or is this someone trying to ride his wave?

I read somewhere this was a wave rider type thing.. but can't remember where.

i've said it before & i'll say it again....the name hoodride, all it stands for and all the people involved with it will be forever tarnished by the thoughtless actions of the heartless imbecile that created that whole "movement".

that is all!

Can anyone post a link so I can read up on this controversy?

ok, ok, i know its a ridiculously long link. anyways, the creators of "hoodrides", dope beat derrick and steve serranos, really did take the money and run. if you sent money to hoodrides for anything, you got got nothing. and then according to this link, d.b.d stole a battery at the gcvws. i heard from many respectable zundfolge members that the man in question was indeed at the gcvws, and was indeed a total slimeball. in any event, you read the thread on the samba and come to your own conclusion. hope that helps.

Wow, I did not even know about the controversy. The whole Hoodride fad annoyed me from the beginning just like a lot of other fads do. *shrugs*
