Remember when cartoons were about being athletic and getting outside? Idk just something interesting to ponder upon

Did millennials actually like “extreme” sports?

God, KlaskyCsupo’s originals were so fucking ugly.

Those kids lived near a beach with surfing waves and other cool shit.
>>
>>156254549
Skateboarding was pretty popular.

This has to be their LEAST ugly show. Even the down-to-earth light drama As Told By Ginger is much uglier.

Neckbeards really hated this kino show

This is literally the only example

They did until boomers cracked down on them, banning skating from most public places and getting skate parks shut down

The only thing I like about it are their dad the Hawaiian guy and the fact that Devo did the theme song, but I don't think they listed themselves as Devo.

The hurricane episode was kino.

DOVE perhaps?

>>156254442
Yeah nick had the day of play, it was hated back then but now it's an unsung hero
>>
>>156254549
Yes kids back then liked extreme sports and stuff like jackass and Tony hawk games made it so most kids knew some x athletes by name

If you live in a place hurricanes happen and have had to go to a community center to weather them cause your house might not survive The hurricane episode is actually nostalgic and comfy.

>>156254687
The one where Otto tries over and over to do a physically impossible trick only to eat shit repeatedly.

sand castle competition
secret spot episode

I liked Rocket Power it was pretty fun. I also liked Skateboarding so it was fun to see it in a cartoon. I love the vibes this show had , a kind of fun version of California kind of like Weekenders.
>>
>>156255204
I thought they were Hawaaian
>>
>>156254442
not sure i can think of a single cartoon that isn't like this still

there's an entire episode of Bluey where Bingo cries because they didn't give her stuffed animal a good enough day due to being on their screens too much
>>
>>156256511
Tito was, I think Rockets were half that because their mom.
>>
>>156256605
I think there's always a balance of "modern content doesn't care to tell you to go outside and have fun" but also "if phones and handheld games are brought up, it'll likely be about overreliance on screens."

Craig of the Creek is unfortunately the only modern show I can think of in the vein of what OP wants, a show prioritizing the outdoor life. It's just that it does it in the faggiest way possible including having the kids talk about what pronouns they prefer.
>>
I was hoping skate parks were empty and dead to have it to myself but it's always filled with scooter kids. I hope they die and I find out so I can destroy their memorials.

Some did, yeah.
>>
>>156254549
Yeah some guy named Tony Hawk landed a 900 at the 1999 x games and the rest was history. Surfing and Snowboarding was also peak stereotypical "cool guy" for a while there.

While it wasn't unwatchable like Angela Anaconda, it didn't really stick with me. It was fine, I guess, though the New Zealand special was a chore to get through since the people behind the show assume that we all sound like ausfags.

It's called having PERSONALITY. But I know better than to expect Spongeslobbers like you to appreciate Rocket Power's unique art style

Yeah rocket power looks fine

Zillenial here, I loved skating for like just 2 months in 2004
>>
I never understood why people gave otto so much shit for being a jerk
The show always acknowledges when he's in the wrong and ray punishes him accordingly
Also whenever he's not the villain of the episode reggie shows that she can be just as vindictive, really the only unambiguously good person in their group is squid

>>156261383
Underrated loli

>>156260262
The extreme sports storyline ruined a storyline about Goofy's mid-life crisis by taking up too much running time.
>>
>>156254687
For me it's the one with the neighbor who has a cool pool the kids want to skate in.

>>
>>156262471
A shame, really.
>>
>>156263173

This. I knew it even as a kid at the time.

The other Nick sports stuff like GUTS was alright because it was real kids doing it. But Rocket Power always felt like an adult trying to be cool

As the ancient Hawaiians used to say...
It's time for a dicking
