In reference to the clown ballerina : In 1988 a sculptor chose to make it (before cvs was there) to show the ‘juxtaposition’ in the Venice beach area. So he put a clown head and a ballerina body, showing two sides of performance. As well as a male face and female body. I got you.
You and Andy together is like my favorite thing on RUclips! Both of your guys skating is so different and unique in the best possible way. DANDY DANDERSON!!!!!!
Amazing to think us 90s kids use to wait months for videos to come out on VHS and now we get to see a day in the life of legends like AA almost daily!🙌
These dudes are so sick! Been a few years since I’ve watched some skate videos and came across y’all yesterday and been stuck on you guys! Keep killing it and having fun my dudes!
Holy shit the cvs you just unlocked a memory. I used to live in cali when I was a kid and I would always drive past that statue and think wtf. I have no idea why it’s there
This video was the most fun I’ve had watching skating in years. Both of those dudes skate like I always wish I could have: consistently banging out creative shit that fits the spot and having the most fun possible. Keep this up!
I'm only about 2/3rds of the way through this video, but this is such a memory trigger that I had to pause, and post this comment. I want to thank you for not only sharing this video, but also for capturing the footage in this video. My more hardcore years of skating were in the Midwest back in the '80s. Good skate spots were few and far between. Before any of my friends and I had cars, we would skate all over the place; from one city to the downtown area, over to an adjacent city's downtown, then over the river to another state, and another downtown area, to an industrial area, to yet another downtown area, back over the river, and then typically back to my place to clean up, fuel up, rest up, and decide what we would fill our night with . . . often, more skating! Skating a distance of 20 to 30 miles, round trip, plus all of the skating we did along the way, having a session at some of the better spots, was fairly typical for us back then. However, with skating through the streets that kind of distance it was still rare for us to come across a feature that was significantly halfway decent. Sure, we knew that one road over another provided less pebbles, and potholes, or that taking an alley to the right offered more features than staying on the residential street. Although we knew what route to take to maximize our skating experience, there wasn't many obstacles, or features, for us to incorporate into our skating. Nevertheless, no matter how insignificant a bank, or more often just a slant, may be, we still hit it . . . every little non-horizontal surface, every bump we could launch off of, every curb we could slappie grind, or simple trick off of, every little set of steps we could ollie down or acid drop, anything, driveway to driveway ollies thinking we were bombing some San Francisco downhill. We had to be creative when we skated if we actually wanted to feel as though we were skating and not just riding some 2 x 4 down the road with roller-skate wheels nailed on. We did not have much street terrain to skate, and in skating from one place to another, we had even less. When you have a cool feature to skate, or several decent features relatively close to each other, it typically would not require much thought, much creativity, to know what to do with them. Likely, you would have at least four different tricks you would want to try on the feature, or some variation of a trick that seemed perfect for that spot, or maybe a line to connect one feature, to another, to yet a third. Skating was nice when such a situation was available to us, which was rarely, and so when it was, it almost seemed as if we were being pampered. Usually, we had to stretch our brains somewhat in order to skate like we wanted. Of course, we could have been busting freestyle tricks the whole time while rolling down the street, but it wasn't doing tricks on top of the street that we sought to do, we wanted to skate the streets, to skate the terrain of the streets, and with our imaginative creativity we somewhat allowed the streets to dictate to us what feature to skate . . . because most of the time, we never had to decide between two different features, although the features we miniscule, we skated them as if they served no other purpose! I thought I was going to say the following only about the opening scene of this video, but as I continued to watch, the essence of what was being shown on the screen remained the same, and two-thirds of the way through this video, I am still being triggered with memory recall of skating with my friends through the streets, with inspiration from recently watching The Bones Brigade Video Show, we skated the best we could, with what we had available to us. We didn't have much, yet we were still able to derive a tremendous amount of enjoyment from skating, and I don't know if those moments of my youth could have been spent in any other better way as far as great memories go! This video brought some of that nostalgia back for me, so thank you for that! For today, I doubt many skaters at all, even in our home town area, skate in a manner quite like we did.
andy using the whole world as a skate park is one of my favourite genres of content. ditto for anything with kilian on your channel, i know it won't last forever but i am enjoying the hell out of it while it does lol
Watching while having covid. Think it's the first time I've missed a few of Dan's videos. But at least I have a few to catch up on now. Life finds a way ;)
That wall talk is a thing skaters and graffiti writers got in common. It’s a different perception of the environment in a city and I hope I never lose it.
You Cali kids always making it look like a natural way of life and not a sport or an extracurricular activity. Many many of my best days were spent on a skateboard. God willing, many more to come.
I have just introduced my sons (a 5, and a nearly 4 year old) into to the world of skateboarding, and showed them a few of your videos. I just wanted to say, with Dan and Andy role models, exposing us to this level of skateboarding, skateboarding knowledge and its creativity. My sons will be inspired for years to come. Thankyou🤙
This intro Andy line. Top filming dan. It reminded me of a first person video game into.Things goin on the dog Barkin. Like the world is opening up. then the the camera angle zooms out and your playin a skateboard game. I guess like a SKATE intro but first person. Eitherway bonkers as always
Got a theroy on the dogs. A skater pushing in the streets sounds like an intense growl, that ebs and flows, like a real growl, it reaches a fierce point, then drops off and repeats, grrr, grrrrr, grr ,grrrrrrrowl.
The lore behind the name of spots can sometimes get mysterious. There's a Brandon's Gap in Owasso, Oklahoma that I skated for many, many years. Nobody can tell me anything about this "Brandon."
The thumbnail made me think Mr Anderson was doing a casper slide on a round bar.... and I clicked just to confirm my theory about TH cheat codes downloaded into his brain.
DAN + ANDY + KILIAN = best skateboarding content these days... the only one I dig the puzzle approach to the savage streets little spots are the most interesting aspect of skateboarding for me
thanks for this... im old, in my 40's, and out of the loop for a long time, but andy is such a genius that he crosses over, and all generations "get him", plus, his attitude, and the example he sets with the helmet is super admirable, ...i cant remember worth a damn, it was ages ago, but thats what may have really drawn me to him in the first place years ago. and good lord, the other guy is crazy rad too, love the primo-drop....amd is that a modern powell freestyle board he's riding? thats rad if so, i just recently learned that modern freestyle decks finally have double kick, lol...anyway, thx:D....subbed
amd ....ALL of this, andy, and the other guy (of whom, i now must learn his name, lol)...all of this is just pure, 100%, creativity, which, to me, is what skating has always been about....this is just, pure, gonz-level creativity, and its inspiring, amd its awesome:D ...when i saw andy do the backside, zen-poll-bonk (the first time, off the yellow poll), i had to rewind, like, it happened so fast, and i was just like "???", haha..."what happened?"
last thing...which was the first thing i was gonna say, but got carried away w/ long-winded-ness....even in the most mundane spots on the planet, andy is a magician, makes it so epic...same goes for killian...damn, this made my day; sorry i talk so much.
Not sure if this was answered already but: Sculptor Jonathan Borofsky's creation, unveiled in its current spot in 1989, is 30 feet tall, standing on a large crate above the entrance to a CVS Pharmacy.
Man I love the long haired dude who is that? I use to skate just like that. Technically and smooth. I just got bored one day in high school and friends were kissed I stopped. He is good skater.
the Freedom of Skateboarding is amazing, as a Graffity tag ( like those in the first Tony Hawks ; pro skater yellow cd (for the engine size computer we didnt even use for that long) when being outside with the crew , from landing the trick in those 3 stair set, to the confrontations with the Trespassing Kens before guns were everywhere or well an option in those skate rage,, to the landing the flip / 180 / or 360 at the biggest ass drop infront of your buddies and in my case (my ex crush which was the only skater girl around the hood at that time); to the blessings and curses of being skating solo with those tricks landed perfectly only for a random stranger , dog or most of the time when nobody was around but as tricks were flowing there were this cosmic gems or levels a skater follow the track to collect like a pokemon, the basics or shove-itsm i know sounds like a religion sounds fun ; the Flip-matics, which was the dress to impress once you flip you could get that defense on the games of SKATE moving on , once you pass that you were ready for the varial-statics, my favorites mosty because they look even cooler as you do add a sex change its like that fire sauce with trippy messages we used to go get in Taco Bell, all sweating and rolling, in my sk8Kase i landed everything backwards, literally first backside, then heelflip, then Varial Heelflip, doesnt meant I wasnt repping all of them tricks, such a group, my skatebros and the fact phones were not engaged, information, Ego, wasnt a thing ,we used to make skate videos, so many tries there was always this RocketPower Flow,, and everyone got their own badass tricks as cards they would pull one of them clean 360s or hardflip, lazers, or nollie heelflip and you knew their flaws too, so many memories so many loves under the Shape of a Board, so many slides and falls, and the best thing is we got the chance embrace it, phones we so out of the picture, so away from thyself, and by that i mean that Life was good, the , beautiful piece of Art, if you experienced the magazines which decoir the the room afterwards the safe moments, when life had this 90s Aura, what a scenery , literally Viva La Bam symbols with sharpie all over my school, even with snow i slide, damn how i wish i could go one day back to this dream that was Youth , the days of skating the whole day, and watching them robot chickens at night with my late Bro, haha so many candles stolen, so many grinds done

What shoes are Andy wearing? I love the old school lace-saver look.
Copy that
@@teknik12k Those are his pro model shoes!
@@Grndrgn4CrackTea Thanks! I'm getting a pair for sure
okay we need killian, andy and bev all trying to make up worlds first tricks that would be a crazy video as these guys have some cool imaginations.
yeah, totally. killian, andy, bev and dan are such fun skaters to watch.
i wanna see a full length from all the regulars on dan's channel, would make for great skating and some entertaining b roll stuff in between
6:40 ?!! This was so sick. This could easily be added to a part in a video. 👏
"When you skate into the abyss, the abyss skates back at you" 😆
These dudes are so sick! Been a few years since I’ve watched some skate videos and came across y’all yesterday and been stuck on you guys! Keep killing it and having fun my dudes!

Haahha
Definitely more than try hard simp Dan 😆

I love it. Wish I had the skills to be this creative.
Holy shit the cvs you just unlocked a memory. I used to live in cali when I was a kid and I would always drive past that statue and think wtf. I have no idea why it’s there
You three are unreal. Love the way y'all's minds work. Best!
These kids are pretty funny.
killian and andy in the same video is almost too much talent. like a nuclear reactor about to go critical.
Hahaha agreed
This video was the most fun I’ve had watching skating in years. Both of those dudes skate like I always wish I could have: consistently banging out creative shit that fits the spot and having the most fun possible. Keep this up!
thanks! i shall do my best
Andy's a magician.

It’s people like you that make people like me feel great.
The sunset 🌅@12:48 is so perfect! Killian killed it again! That Casper variation on the pole at the alley T-intersection was SICK!
I feel like that needed way more "Yeah!"'s
I love watching Andy skate, so much control and consistency without looking robotic
I agree , but give me an example of who is robotic
@@letsgoletsgoletsgoletsgoletsgo Nyjah lmao
I can hardly bike in that alley and Andy just makes every foot into a spot.
this road looks exhausting to pump on haha
i love how andy skate's! it's like every obstacle is just another oppurtunity.. and he makes it work.. no doubt one of the goats!
That is a VERY ENTERTAINING TRIO ❤❤❤🍹🤙 Nice
Thank you for sharing this Dan 🙏🤙
Before I watch this through and I see what happens. Iffy title alone... Dan, You've Created Some MONSTERS And They Can't Be Stopped!!!D:

My eyes like weren’t registering what the thumbnail was until I watched the video. Freestylers are psychotic. Love it.
You Cali kids always making it look like a natural way of life and not a sport or an extracurricular activity. Many many of my best days were spent on a skateboard. God willing, many more to come.
dude this would be the life. walking around the city all day skating. eating good food. smoking doobies. damn I'm jelly
ok. but dont throw a wobbly.

13:36 that sunset and lighting is juicy.
Those are some loud wheels Dan!!! Where are your Dragons???
Ooo ooo if Killian and Andy are trying this its about to get hectic! Zack def got NBD
Hey man. Just curious on if you used his new board or not. I'd love to hear your thoughts on width and wheelbase and whatnot
Telling the freezer to freeze made me lol.

When you skate into the abyss, the abyss is like, 'bruhhhhhh'
Lol, freakin Andy. He's never met a stranger.
If you skate long enough into the abyss the abyss will skate back into you.
Parkour athletes talk about the "grippy-ness" of walls pretty much everyday!
Agreed, we talk about the grippy-ness of everything we touch including our shoes lmao
Homie gets down. We need a sesh with you, that dude, Andy, and bev.
GET SOME SOAP SHOES!!! If you grind it on the round bar at the same time as the Casper you could grind longer and would definitely be a cool video
has the primo slide to wallride ever been done?
“The abyss skates back at you…” would be the words…I suppose
I like all skating, i don't care about whats cool or trendy tricks. I like skaters that have fun and you guys are fun to watch
I've been telling you or Johnny Geiger to do the dark side tail slide for the longest LoL

Parkour athletes will join you in judging the grippiness of walls. And these damn designers and builders just can’t seem to get it right
2:33 haha that car was just like, "uhh..." 😐
Idk, I started smelling burned toast at the conversation
I heard that CVS statue has Arnold's face and he had it covered when he went Governator
i didnt know you had crust in LA
You guys are the polyheteroskatethruple we need right now

What wheels do you and andy recommend for these crusty streets
Andy Anderson and killan Martin the the same video some unlimited potential there
That sunset in the background ;)
As a fellow boomer I love the boomer camera man being like psssh.... ok. After they nail ridiculous shit
this is the rebirth of skateboarding
As usual Andy Anderson proves he can skate ANYWHERE. 🤪🤟
Hahaha love the creativity!
Keep at it guys! Awesome

Haven't skated for years, but I always was a streetskater and still prefer it.
