seeking Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 dude, c'mon, i understand other people not understanding what i'm saying, but you? put down your need to be 'contrarian' for a minute, would you? i'm not hating on philly hands, i appreciate the shit out of a good one, which is exactly why you never saw me even attempt one while living there. ;) i'm hating on seeing a billion shitty generic versions, and the idea that just because something is done in a philly style, that it's good, hence my 'illegible unifrm scribbles' comment. maybe you don't notice as much because you're there, but once you start seeing people trying to do philly's in detroit, you'll understand where i'm coming from. be honest, i'm sure that someplace inside you is an angry little fat guy, wishing he could fit into a trucker hat, mad at the bastardization of his cities style. :) as for wickeds/wickets, you got me there. i'd never heard them refered to (by anyone, ever) as 'wickeds'.

seeking Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 i didn't say futile to argue, i said futile to reason. there is no argument, we're not on seperate sides of anything. my opinion was that i felt philly hands were becoming like LA hands were a few years ago. people jock them, people bite them, but people don't take the time to understand them. instead they run around trying to emulate them, totally degrading them. now you don't have to agree with this opinion but it can not be proven 'wrong', it's an opinion. it's not that i'm so concerned with philly hands in specific, what i'm concerned with is the integrity of graff as a whole, and the lack of appreciation and respect that people have for any regional style. if you haven't heard/seen about bad philly's popping up all over the country, then consider yourself lucky, cause just cause it's not on the internet in the handstyle thread, doesn't mean it's not happening.

selfishone Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I appreciate all handstyles,but by far Illadell handstyles are the hardest to execute. Sure some may look like scribble and unledgible and mad similar to someone from outa town.But once you can decipher them folowing the hand motion and then actually trying one that looks good. Thats when you realize the shit is difficult,and fascinating at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF1 Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Originally posted by seeking@Mar 24 2005, 04:49 PM SF1, the word is 'wickets', not 'wickeds'. jesus christ. if you're gonna rep your style like it's life depended on you, atleast learn to spell it. Quoted post Ehem...It's wicked and wicket. Origianally they were called wickeds but since everyone pronounces them whicket thats how people spell the shit sometimes. Know what the hell your talking about before you pretend to. Oh that's right, your not FROM philly so you dont. Also every one of the hands dude posted were official non-bastardized and different from the next. It's just a fact that in Philly our hands are so advanced and superior than anywhere else that if you aint thorough in your own right (hand wise) it probably would all look the same to you.

SF1 Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 And for god sake stop calling them "Phillies". There are wickeds, tall hands, and print hands. And yeah, people not from Philly shouldn't bother trying them cause they always fuck it up bad. Case in point that "Fake" tall hand :yuck: :yuck: You got the right name at least.

thephunkbaby Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Yeah umm, i don't know much, but what seek was saying about shitty style biters, that's graff. They are called toys, and it happens everywhere, it doesn't take away from the fact that good writers got good hands. Fuck the wack shit, i don't even look at bad graffiti anymore. It's wack. But c'mon, kadism, espo, those hands is illy, you can spend your time knocking some toys hustle, i like to appreciate the better things in life.
