Skated here for the first time yesterday. Had to go back for more today. You can just feel the history here as soon as you step into it. Thank you, Nike.
@@newvocabulary every corporation and operation under capitalism exloits someone somewhere. Since we cant do anything about it we should just accept the products.
@ Nike is a big evil corp though.... You're trying to make the argument into a false dichotomy, where I have to choose evil or evil. I don't have to do that, I can point out evil, say it's evil, and be correct.
People always talk shit about how Nike is "ruining skateboarding", it seems like in this case they did a pretty amazing thing for skateboarding so props to them
At the end of the day all company do the same thing nike! just had a bigger platform coming in to skateboarding and kinda toolkit away! From all the other company such as etnies , fallen, lakai , and many other company's did get is much exposure so when the new guys come in and get signed by nike because there so good who get exposure nike, so it takes away for other company's. Nyjah , luan , Shane , prod , Eric koston ride for nike!
I was there recently to witness the heaven that is the new west LA courthouse. Stopped by there on a day of skating in Venice just to reminisce if you will only to find out that the place was completely renovated to what you see today. It was an amazing surprise and treat and cant wait to get back there. SOoooo many great memories at that place.
yep, but still support the brands owned by skaters such as emerica, es, not so much addidas and nike which are only in it for the $$ since skateboarding is very ''in'' right now
Anyone who makes a company is in it for the money, that's how business works, nobody is making a company to grow skateboarding all these guys are trying to make money off skating some skaters and some business men it's all the same in my opinion
Everything was different in the 90's skatings not gonna die at the rate it's at, street league and zuimez are just point less. I'm just sayin the only thing ruining skateboarding are the skaters creating "skate politics" between corporate companies and skater owned companies. skating is all about just having fun with your homies at the park or in the streets and no company is gonna ruin that. Unless you want it to
+mikeyjallball but don't listen to me I'm just some dumb kid who wouldn't know anything a "Veteran skater" like you fine I'll skate the skater-owned brands and see what changes
I think the coolest part of that kid's line is after the crooked grind nollie heel out, he goes into a board stall on the ledge and then pulls his tail over it.
Yeah, I hear a lot of older guys put Nike and other large corporations down for sucking the soul out of skateboarding but this is really cool. They are putting someone in charge who has their heart in the right place. If they keep doing things like this, I may buy some Nikes.
I have tried them, the pair I skated had great control, but they weren't very comfortable and tore apart in two months. I just have a preference on shoes based on personal experience.
***** Hating nike became "cool" so most of the things you see on the internet is bullshit. I am an emerica guy myself but to be real, my Romeros had the sole on the left shoe basically exploding after like two month (from the heel to like the middle of my foot it just separated from the shoe) and i might have done like two ollies in them, it was my "going to school" pair of shoes. And my on my reynolds 3 the sole on my right shoe was just randomly popping out (bad glue i guess) Basically outside of the G6 wich comes out as one of the best skate shoe ever (and i heard the figgy's are pretty good too) but outside of that emerica isnt that much better than anything nike does. I've had a pair of Nike, the Satire and they skated good, felt really good and really the sole was so damn durable I liked them so much that I bought a pair of canvas to chill in. People have no argument against Nike outside of "oh they arent from skateboarding they want to destroy it" nigga please why is nobody hating on Adidas and Puma then ? and technically, Converse is the same too.
I think Nike is helping to progress skateboarding more so than many other companies have worked to. I also think people are hating on them for some really dumb reasons.
LOVE THE IDEA OF RESSURECTING AN OLD SCHOOL SPOT but not really feelin the colors so if they ever own a spot can you just make it an OG color.... cuz thats what the streets are all about
CAN NIKE PLEASE GO TO SAN JOSE AND UNCAP ALL THE LEDGES AT HATHAWAY PARK!!! 1497 Vallejo Dr, San Jose, CA 95130 it must have at least 50 skate stoppers and the ledges are chipped up pretty bad but kinda skateable.. no one sits on the ledges anyways some are too small and others are all black from waxing
now imagine a skateboarding city without houses, cars, people. only spots perfect spots to ride slow, fast, high, low, 1mile manuals and some good things in this.
Watsup bros, In the near future I'm gonna be your typical cool skateboard RUclips guy..with Tons of likes and subscribers. I just figured you might as well all go ahead and start now by showing the love and racking up some likes and subs. No big deal. Just saying.

no matter how much you dislike Nike,you can't hate on this.
They're an evil corporation that exists off slave labor. But yes, this is pretty dope. Win some you lose some.
John Duncan what do you mean “ slave labor “

Emir H. Abri I believe they were referring to the underpaid children they use to manufacture their products.... but ok Marx

There are pros and cons to it.
At the end of the day all company do the same thing nike! just had a bigger platform coming in to skateboarding and kinda toolkit away!

But nike do be hooking it up!!!😂
Personally I don’t like the Nike brand, but hey, they’re taking care of these guys; helping them pay their mortgages, etc.
I was there recently to witness the heaven that is the new west LA courthouse.

Man I want to go there and like...5-0 a ledge on the 30th try lol
nike is doing good.

"Veteran skater" like you fine I'll skate the skater-owned brands and see what changes
jacemarteez i don't understand this debate it's just shoes.
So cool to see Koston just casually still killing it!
Favourite trick has to be Chris Roberts' switch manny three shuv in Hot Chocolate. stomped it.
PotatoPlop switch flip switch manny u mean
Fire whoever filmed that Trevor line lol
Kurt Hayashi is a legend man, I'd like to see you film better with these pros.
ViCiousV Productions Haha...Didn't film that line, only the Koston ones.
Kurt H 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
haha "what happened to the fountain"
Was nice to see this happen and also for southbank to get saved. Nice to know that skating culture is being kept alive
This spot has been going for so long, I remember the early Girl videos and 411 vids when Koston was a kid skating this spot.
Nike's gonna have their hands full if they try to go for love park, DC put a million dollars on the table and the city of philly turned them down
nike has more than a million, and that was a while back i believe..
NEXT no DC offered a million but philly turned it down
Peter Neave
DC offered a million dollar over the course of ten years, not as a whole million.
RollAwayMedia nike sb is a whole nother fraction of nike
no shit Rip Billies
I don't like Nike that much, but this was a pretty sick thing to do! Thumbs up Nike!
Koston is a classic!
“Still got it “
Skateboarding is so beautiful it's Art in our eyes as skaters
was there a couple weeks ago. im glad the fountain is back
They should do this for Chaffey highschool in Ontario, CA
Those were the days....no worries about the world but full focus on the board and your set of wheels...off you go and skate!!
1993, 411VM's Eric Koston Profile!!!
That was one of my favorite parts from back then. Classic Koston skating to Gangstarr's best track.
You forgot the roof gap!
Gotta love that classic Koston humor...
Oh this spot!! Chris Cole was talking about courthouse on 9 club..
I think the coolest part of that kid's line is after the crooked grind nollie heel out, he goes into a board stall on the ledge and then pulls his tail over it.
RIP Courthouse
That shirt is fucking amazing
Greatest skateboarding!!!!😀😀 u guys do great things keep doing it
What a legend
I like his sense of humor.
peperruti hes a dick in person though
skizviz Never met him, if he is oh well..
I heard he is chill asf
when you met him not at a demo or contest you'll know what im talking about
Para mi en uno de los mejores lugares que e patinado en mi vida, gracias Manny Santiago.
Yeah, I hear a lot of older guys put Nike and other large corporations down for sucking the soul out of skateboarding but this is really cool. They are putting someone in charge who has their heart in the right place. If they keep doing things like this, I may buy some Nikes.
I definitely recommend them. I usually don't go for corporate skate merch, but Nike really does know what they're doing when it comes to skate shoes.
I have tried them, the pair I skated had great control, but they weren't very comfortable and tore apart in two months. I just have a preference on shoes based on personal experience.
Nah I had the hermans they have no board feel
***** god emericas are the shit...but they make some shit shoes also
*****
Hating nike became "cool" so most of the things you see on the internet is bullshit.
I am an emerica guy myself but to be real, my Romeros had the sole on the left shoe basically exploding after like two month (from the heel to like the middle of my foot it just separated from the shoe) and i might have done like two ollies in them, it was my "going to school" pair of shoes.
And my on my reynolds 3 the sole on my right shoe was just randomly popping out (bad glue i guess)
Basically outside of the G6 wich comes out as one of the best skate shoe ever (and i heard the figgy's are pretty good too) but outside of that emerica isnt that much better than anything nike does.
I've had a pair of Nike, the Satire and they skated good, felt really good and really the sole was so damn durable I liked them so much that I bought a pair of canvas to chill in.
People have no argument against Nike outside of "oh they arent from skateboarding they want to destroy it" nigga please why is nobody hating on Adidas and Puma then ? and technically, Converse is the same too.
Damn, crazy seeing Koston with grey hair. still kills it though !!
that's spot looks like paradise. too bad I'm all the way in South Carolina
I think Nike is helping to progress skateboarding more so than many other companies have worked to. I also think people are hating on them for some really dumb reasons.
I think this was a inspiration for a spot in one of the Tony Hawk games
I want to build a house next to that park! damN! That's perfect!!!!
Koston, you're a good man!
It's the best spot i've ever seen
"the theater" is in tony hawk american wasteland
Thats really awesome to see!
2nd track Joseph Rusnak - Summer Nights 🤙😎
The courthouse that he was skating at is the one they filmed BAD JUDGE 😂😭I miss that show
Pretty cool shit, Nike liberating skate spots
Big ups to nike. Awesome!
Can't wait for that Jordan skate shoe.
love park next please
2 late boi ;(
I'm don't mad that Nike only sees skateboarding as another market to expand into if it keeps doing cool stuff like this
***** Make this in Skate 3
This place is one of the spots in a tony hawk game.
We grew up skating here....EVERYONE is welcome. Just BE COOL! =)
Did I just hear…LOVE?
He looks so much like him himself in Skate 3.
song at the end please :)
that is beautiful!
Epic Koston
Next renovation project should be Freedom Plaza in Washington DC
Thanks so much Nike I was trying to get a trick but I would always get kick out
Steezy Skates lmfao what
TREVOR !!
They need to do Love Park.
LOVE THE IDEA OF RESSURECTING AN OLD SCHOOL SPOT but not really feelin the colors so if they ever own a spot can you just make it an OG color.... cuz thats what the streets are all about
I agree man. It kinda looks like a "street" design made skatepark with those funky colors. Still a legendary spot though.
so sick I hope they turn love park back to how it was
great it was in tony hawk´s american wasteland in santa monica.
Sweet
that wollie was fucking sick
Hey what about the top of the stage roof is that skate able?
They close love park
you just have 2 unlock it again
Thatd be sick if they turned Love Park back into a free skate spot.
Count how many time Koston said "you know"
Isn't this spot from the movie mid 90's?
Rip love 💔
Just a question: was that stage in the movie Mid 90’s
FinobeSkateMagazine nice

Noooooooo!!! not the fountain
Make freedom plaza in Washington DC a skate free spot
What's the name of the song you guys used ?
