Met Geoff in 2011 and then 5 months ago randomly at my local in the morning ! I was alone and he popped up ! Showed him the old 11 year old photo and he was so happy ! Went to his car and gave me his pro model board ! It’s hanging on my wall ! Love this dude
This episode is deep man. I can relate so much to what he was mentioning about the life’s path and continuing the love for skateboard. Fucking love skateboarding.
Geoff was my favorite. So much that I used his first name in German class convincing the teacher my transcripts were wrong. The whole class went along with it and I had her convinced for about 3 months. Signed papers, tests, etc.
@@kerryogrady3637 I convinced my teacher my real name was Geoffrey Rowley Follis. Just for fun. I basically had her convinced for about three months until she found out that wasn't my name.
Yeah...Hendrix rocked that jacket most famously and that look associated with him - he was definitely inspired by the Beatles, but Hendrix served in the military and that was probably another reason why he rocked it
Imagine all the stories Ed Templeton has that he could tell on the show. Dude has been around for the past 35 years. He’s seen it all with the industry and is still going. Get em’ on the show
Met him in Brazil on Vans tour some years ago and showed him the mag with his first pic ever. Got happy. You have this mag? Hahaha...This dude was so amazing. Big respect ❤
I got to walk Geoff around Mystery Ranch Backpacks a couple years ago. Nice guy. I probably weirded him out, but I'm still glad I got to show him around.
This guy is such a legend. One of the best to ever do it. Looks amazing on the board and can back up anything he ever says because he fckin rips. Thanks Nine Club!
I was at Radlands in Northampton UK in Autumn 1992 when it opened and there was this little gnarly kid who was about five feet tall who really stuck out and Radlands was fucking RAMMED,you could barely move so for this kid to stand out he had to have something about him. After a while.I was on the small mini ramp with about eight million other kids and this small kid Ollied off the roof of the shop into the mini ramp and almost shut the place down. That Kid was Geoff Rowley. I'm fifty years old now and a lot's happened in that time,a lot of friends have come and gone so to see Geoff still killing it blows my fuckin mind. Nice one Geoff. Ed Templeton,Jeremy Klein and Geoff Rowley. Or Nyjah Huston,Yuto Horrigome and Shane O Neil Hmmmm?
I just learned this, this second. I’ve been saying it wrong and watching these dude since I was a tyke playing THPS1 & 2 and skating since then too. I’m now 33 years old. Thank you. Never again, RAWLEY!
As a fellow hunter/skater I'm glad my latest pair of shoe is a pair of Rowley xlt. Only shoe the shop had in my size never been a vans fan but these shoe great. Im glad to see I supported someone elsho shares my love of the outdoors.
This was an amazing couple of hours of Rowley talking lol seriously! Loved it! He's always been an inspiration and hearing him talk, he's a very sensible, driven, cool human
Growing up learning how to hunt from my elders in the southeast United States and also being a skater since the late 70s. I totally get where Geoff is coming from. The man is legend!
I remember the Flip Feast tour stopped by 3rd lair in Minnesota back in 2004 maybe….place was packed and my friends and I got stuck on a small quarter pipe to watch the demo. Rowley skated up the ramp, did a back nose blunt stall, and said “ how do you like the smell of my ass!….” And flew away to do some other epic trick. Instant legend.
@@RoseanneSeason7 Yeah! I remember that, too. Was that a Toy Machine's ad, too? I hadn't own any magazine with that ad, but I had one with a pop shove-it, really high, wearing baggy and super small wheels, was an early style of Toy, little art.
@@panard0 I think the ad of him sitting on a Vespa was a flip ad. Cause there was a flip board with the same picture/graphic on it. funny story I ordered that board at a snow board shop and when I went in to pick it up the guy working thought I was gay cause the picture of Geoff on the Vespa he looked like a model and was a weird graphic to have on a skateboard (some cute young British looking dude sitting on a Vespa)
When I got the original vans Rowleys….I thought I could run faster and jump higher.. tried to blunt my whole 8 foot box in the rain and ate it 😂! Those shoes and half cabs are the only 2 skate shoes I have in a case
please next -Tony silva, matt berger, matt allen, abdias rivera, josh harmony, gareth sterh, ali boulala, ryan smith, diego bucchieri, marius syvvanen, elijah berli, shuriken shannon, colt cannon, moose
300k subs yo! been with you from 'nearly' the beginning - keep on... keepin on! word . blessings from Cape Town, South Africa. oh.. aaaaand.. than you for blessing us with the legend that is Geof Rowley once again!
Geoff was always the hardest dude with the biggest balls going for the baddest shit, and pulling it! But all of the while, not only was he successful and dominant amongst his contemporaries, and in the world of skateboarding, he was smiling and genuinely loving every moment of it!
Its funny because the world of backcountry trekking, hunting, and hiking seem so alien to the 9 crew, which is completely understandable. Being from NW Montana near Glacier National Park, everything Rowley is talking about is the norm up here. There is something so incredibly special but hard to explain about being deep in mountains.
Legend. Nostalgia with my best homie Michael Chernikoff (R.I.P.)who got me hyped on Rowley almost 25 years ago. Thank you for keeping memories alive 9 Club.
havent skated now since I was 18 probably. 51 now. I absolutely love your show guys. The respect and camaraderie you bring to the skate scene is just amazing. Thank you and keep going! love from UK
Penny would be amazing but in reality, I don't think he's articulate enough to make it work, judging my the limited interviews he has done at least. maybe I'm wrong.
I sold newspaper subscriptions in highschool and went to buster haltermans house. We started talking skating and he bought a subscription from me and gave me a pair of bones Swiss. Made my day.
Geoff I doubt you will ever read this comment. If by chance you do and any September 1st or weekend of the first you are interested in dove hunting we have a great spot. I am down in the imperial valley, El Centro to pin point it down a little closer. We have access to 2 great spots but this season we just stayed at one. 3 guys over 4 days gotten our limit cleaned, cooked or gave away the birds so we could go shoot more. Bag limits are a little less black and white with white wing Dove morning Dove and erasion dove but we ended up cleaning 160 birds over the 4 days. Such a great spot if you can handle the heat. We are not exactly in the sun or doing much walking around like you do with your tracking big game. We are never far from our ice chest and plenty of shade. I don’t offer many folks the invitation to our kinda secret spots but I think for you I would be happy to have you and a couple of your friends/Family come out. I want to put the invite out if you ever want to shoot some upland game I can also give you an 100% success rate. But that’s completely different with birds as you know. We also have a pretty nice skate park but is so hot in September so swimming in the pool is better than skating them in the valley heat.
Props to him for still shredding, I had skated for 11 years and finally hit me to stop just recently last year. Just because I didn’t feel the love for it or the hunger to shred. I still push around and pop a few flat ground stuff but not like I used to.
It's amazing to hear how the scouse accent has adapted adapted for Americans to understand it. I'm from the very North West of England and have always wondered how much my accent or dialect would need to change for someone from somewhere else to understand it! For reference, Geoff would have sounded not too far from Paddy Pimblett back in the day. Much love to the north West.
Honestly. Alot of pros these days need to take a page from Geoffs book. It's all about the skating. Skating skating skating. Not about your modelling career. Skating is the be all. Not a stepping stone to being some new york socialite. Him talking about what is gnarlyness in his last 9 club should be on the 10 commandments of skateboarding
Im a middle school film teacher still trying to make my first feature. I skate when I can after work... My Pops and I used to hunt the San Luis Valley of Colorado when I was kid, R.I.P. But really enjoying this episode!!! Im copping those Black Rowley Vans with the pink stripe come payday!!!

Geoff is pretty awesome. Wish things didn’t end the way they did with Flip. As far as I know they screwed him over.
W experience! 🙌
Wholesome ❤
Insane Geoff experience! I met him at a SLS event in Chicago in 2014. Just said what up though and he was really friendly
Wtf daim so cool my dudes
The Ed Templeton episode needs to happen!
tbf every single name on that list would be fire
Exaclly @@1992AJL
Yes 💯
Long overdue but he’s a busy man
Why ?
48 years old, full head of hair and able to shred and slam, what a wizard
He looks great but also I am shocked he is ONLY 48 considering I am 41 and he was my hero when I was a kid, lol.
Does Rowley know the redcoats got whooped in the revolutionary war lol
@@joshuasmith6346 So? People are still out there wearing lakers and bulls jerseys. lol.
@@Demion83 hahahaha
It’s called taking care of your body and drinking and eating rite it does wonders trust me!
Ed Templeton is a legend for taking an Offspring tape and throwing it out the window lol
Lol. We use to do that in high school to girls Smiths tapes.
Figgy.
Definitely Figgy.
Also, I love how every year Rowley looks more and more like Charles Bronson.🤘
maybe he should drop Toymachine for Deathwish 😆
@@nil4309lol! Good one
@@nil4309toy machine fits him. Baker x deathwish is for young scalawags
holy shit I never realized that lmao... that's a compliment cause charles bronson is the fuckin' man
Damn bro that’s a great call!!!! … Charles Bronson…. I wanna know more about that man
Thank you guys so much!💎🛹
What a amazingly humble guy. His contribution to skating in bar none. Great episode. 😊
This episode is deep man. I can relate so much to what he was mentioning about the life’s path and continuing the love for skateboard. Fucking love skateboarding.
1:20:15 Thank you Nine Club 🙌🏽 and Geoff!! Such a great episode
It's disgusting that the industry doesn't provide healthcare for their team riders. Skaters need to start a union!!
Marx Gonzalez
I agree to an extent. But skaters don’t really generate enough income to warrant all that
The one name Chris says right. 😂
Kareem Campbell, Elissa Steamer, Rodney Mullen would be a dream come true.
We need Reem! The Ghetto Bird is the forever the most stylish.
Or Joe!
dunno if rodney is a good match
Rodney was on, or on hawk/wolf, but yea elissa & careem would be so cool. We are bored wanne hear these legendary tales. Is what it is
And Jim Greco too!

Dudes rocking the George Harrison during the Sgt Pepper era look :)
Must be a Liverpool thing 😂
Same hair and stache too ❤
Yeah...Hendrix rocked that jacket most famously and that look associated with him - he was definitely inspired by the Beatles, but Hendrix served in the military and that was probably another reason why he rocked it
Yeah-ha!! Love it.❤
Man now I want to listen to magical mystery tour, Geoff Rowley you played me like a fiddle! Touché
Imagine all the stories Ed Templeton has that he could tell on the show. Dude has been around for the past 35 years. He’s seen it all with the industry and is still going. Get em’ on the show
Epic interview! I'm taking a day off from archery hunting in Montana right now, so hearing about his hunts is just what the doctor ordered.
There was a 411 where Ed introduced him as "Geoff rooooley". Ed corrected us in the 90's.
Met him in Brazil on Vans tour some years ago and showed him the mag with his first pic ever. Got happy. You have this mag? Hahaha...This dude was so amazing. Big respect ❤
Can we get a Rowley Powley pudding pie toy machine graphic please 😮
Damn it. That deserves waaay more likes!
Pin this comment!!❤❤
LEGEND! As a over 40 year old, its so crucial to be active consistently. Glad he is still doing it at the highest levels and staying active.
this one is so good. love all he shared on benefits of backpacking. its such a full experience.
Geoff is a legend !! Growing up had all his vans shoes and skate boards !! Love flip skateboards bcuz of him !!

Hmmmm?
I loved skating Radlands ! Always friendly in there , I remember playing pool on the roof by the big roll in 😂
Best UK park that's ever been.The Ince family,legends.
I just learned this, this second. I’ve been saying it wrong and watching these dude since I was a tyke playing THPS1 & 2 and skating since then too. I’m now 33 years old. Thank you. Never again, RAWLEY!
So epic…
Thank you guys for bringing back this legend on the show.
So awesome he's back, his old interview was absolutely fascinating. Can't wait to listen to this one!
He was my fav skater growing up. He did some gnarly stair sets back in the day! Had countless pairs of his Vans. Love ya, Geoff!
As a fellow hunter/skater I'm glad my latest pair of shoe is a pair of Rowley xlt. Only shoe the shop had in my size never been a vans fan but these shoe great. Im glad to see I supported someone elsho shares my love of the outdoors.
Mark Gonz, Penny,….Mullen……the list goes on.
Yeah I second Tom Penny, would love to hear some gnarly stories. Gonz would be great, glad TH had him on recently.
Penny
PENNY
@@thejoydivision8 I will say it again…Penny
Gonz ep would have to a whole week! 😂😂

I remember that. Also the ad where he's on a scooter

Watching this made rowley my favorite skater again
This is the best skate podcast I’ve listen to in a long time
Johnny Rotten said “Rowwwley” that’s why we all say it like that
Great episode with the legendary ripper!!! Can’t wait to see what Rowley does next.
Geoff was always
the hardest dude with the biggest balls going for the baddest shit, and pulling it!
But all of the while, not only was he successful and dominant amongst his contemporaries, and in the world of skateboarding, he was smiling and genuinely loving every moment of it!
I remember seeing geoff GVR back in the day. I swear was so star struck just to see a great skateboarder. I grew admiring as a youth

Being from NW Montana near Glacier National Park, everything Rowley is talking about is the norm up here. There is something so incredibly special but hard to explain about being deep in mountains.
Geoff’s love for skating is contagious 🔥🔥🔥One of the best episodes🧡
Geoff Rowley changed my life
no he didnt
Who are you to say that him inspiring other people to skate isn't changing their life? I know he changed mine after Tony hawk pro skater@@JimP-tc7gg
Him, Rodney and Jamie Thomas were my biggest inspiration in the 90s
Holy smokes I have been waiting for Rowley! 🥳
Legend. Nostalgia with my best homie Michael Chernikoff (R.I.P.)who got me hyped on Rowley almost 25 years ago. Thank you for keeping memories alive 9 Club.

Y’all gotta complete the Shorty’s circle and get on Silvey and Smolik!
I met Geoff when I was in eights grade. He was so kind. Stand up guy..
Me too. My favorite autograph.
Met Geoff at a demo a few years back. I asked him to sign my Flip Sorry video - VHS. “Fuck, Mate. You are old”. Ya. What a legend. Great interview.
I definitely think Geoff is underrated!! The longevity and respect for the game is unmatched!!
Favourite skateboarder , such a cool dude , absolute Legend 🔥🙏
Hearing Geoff's take on the Olympics was truly refreshing. Legit legend of the game.
what an infectious dude, this one ruled
Geoff is a class act! We love you ROW-lee!
Rowley's a good Dude !!
From one Jeff to another !!
Cheers Bro !!
🛹🛹🤘😎👍🌴☀️🛹🛹
Legend...i have followed him since at least 96. dude that promo part he did a ways back with the motorhead song was soooo good. All his stuff is good.
Geoff was a huge influence on my skating when i was a kid. i'm so stoked to see him on TM. It makes so much sense. Such a based dude.
Penny if you can get him out his shell. He might just remain a mystery. Templeton would be amazing.
Penny would be amazing but in reality, I don't think he's articulate enough to make it work, judging my the limited interviews he has done at least. maybe I'm wrong.
Geoff is so real. Total legend.

Thanks 9 club and thanks SO MUCH GEOFF
Can’t wait to watch this one!!!
It’s because Johnny Rotten called him “(Raow)-ley” in the Sorry video, so we thought that was proper because it came from another Brit. 1:54
Geoff Rowley is easily one of the mos rad skaters ever. A true net positive asset to skateboarding as a whole.

Geoff's hunting story was the best content in this episode!
Geoff is a staple to decine a skateboard legend. His level of destroying is in its own class.
love my civilware pointer 2 knife.
This guy isn’t human , legend 🎉
Amazing interview
Anyone else rewatch every video part of the person before watching the episode? I genuinely look forward to the binge every week
I love Geoff calling Ed Templeton out about coming on the show!
The puddin pie should be a board graphic
Props to him for still shredding, I had skated for 11 years and finally hit me to stop just recently last year. Just because I didn’t feel the love for it or the hunger to shred. I still push around and pop a few flat ground stuff but not like I used to.

I had so many pairs of His rowley xlts
would love to see you guys get tony alva on
Hell yeah guys great show as ever ! Stay rad Geoff big grats on TM and all !
Imagine in 1999 being told Geoff would join toy machine and still be skating at the highest level in 2024. So incredible.
Been a while since I’ve watched your show and this episode is a great way to get back to it 👍🏼 awesome !

Blame Johnny Rotten for the whole Rowley pronunciation haha
He will always be Gee-off Rowley for me. 100% respect for the man but it is what it is.
Rowley was never the problem to pronounce. When I got Rowley's prime cap in 1996. I told everyone that it GEE - OFFS cap.
I also said his name like that lol
Rad episode, thanks 9 club!
Geoff is a man's man. Legend 🛹
Geoff is GOAT. My favorite pair of vans I ever owned!!!
