The Tao of Skateboarding

Rolling Through Life: A Skateboard Philosophy, Volume 1

De: A E Gold

Narrado por: Ari Evan Gold

A modern interpretation of the original Tao Te Ching. The meter has been preserved to its original intent, while the subject matter is about skateboarders and non-skateboarders instead of merchants and farmers. May this bring peace, empathy, compassion, and stoke to all who hear it.

Don’t waste a credit or $2

The audio quality of the narrator is horrible and he has a cadence that is like a mix of the worst parts of William Shatner and Christopher Walken. Makes me want to go deaf so I never have to hear it again.

Disappointing

Feels like the narrator was not taking seriously the text and was about to laugh at any given moment. One credit for only 28 minutes? Maybe in the context it is a nice pome parallel to read through but don’t get your hopes up, it’s not the Tao of poo for skateboarding.

A righteous & soulful iteration of the original classic

Preserving the structure laid forth in the original Tao te Ching, A. E Gold’s iteration of the Tao manages to embody the philosophical significance and convey the wisdom within.

An enjoyable read that’s “true to this” not new to this l, so much so that the hymans lf average intelligence will not be able to make sense of this work of art.
