If you grew up skating in 70's,80's,90's you where part of a very special time. It will never be replicated or duplicated, the era has passed. We were having the time of our lives and didn't even know it! Cool back story, back in the late 80's the boys in the neighborhood built a huge halfpipe out in the street. The cops said it couldn't remain there and instead of destroying it they all worked together to tear it down and rebuild it in the back yard! Ah the good old days😎👍
This is a very well done documentary. Not only is the information accurate and genuine , but the narrator and the writers tell the story from the perspective of someone who knows how the world perceives this little past time of ours. I have watched so many movies , shows , videos , documentaries and animations of skateboarding and the lore of skateboarding. This is the best that I've seen . Good job!
I’m a middle aged skater who started in 87 and to be honest it wasn’t a false assessment that most of us were losers and kids from broken homes in the 90s. It wasn’t the rule but it was the norm.
we went to different schools together man . 50 started in 85 AND AINT NEVER GOING TO STOP! we were the bad kids back then. if we didnt come to the party it wasnt a party. there was us then everyone else. it was exclusive hard to get in with us
Born in 69 in the “valley” of San Fernando. Started at 6 riding a “pro class” with orange slalom wheels. And never looked back.just turned 55 last week and completed building an entire wood skatepark for a youth group at my church. Still skate with my 18 and 27 yr old sons. life is good if I can still skate.
As a skater from that era: “We skated because there weren’t rules or authority. And that’s what you heard in the music too. We were done with being told what to do and we couldn’t care less about what you thought, or your tv image of us.” End quote
Nobody marked their boards under the trucks. Kooks. I grew up skating since the 70's and managed a skate shop for years in the 1980's. TV and movies have never gotten it right. Most of the guys who I skated, snowboarded, and surfed with, and went to punk shows with, went on to get graduate degrees and work as professionals.
i skated in the 90s with a 70s board, wasnt uncommon, you go to a junk shop as if they had any boards, and sometimes they had an old beat up 70s or 80s board in the back
I was lucky enough to skate “pipe line “ Before it closed I remember You had to have a helmet in order to enter the park I didn’t have one and almost didn’t get to enter the park Fortunately my older brother found one after asking around I had pads already so I don’t remember if it was just the helmet or knee pads and helmet Any way My brother was always looking out I had so much fun that day It was the most fun I had with my friends skateboarding I’m glad kids today have skateboarding parks all over the place and it’s free
I'm gonna thumbs down if I don't find out if part 2 exists, or it's yet to be made? I hate it when it says part 1, if there's no part 2 it's not a part!
I chopped 20 minutes out of this, hence the "Part 1" designation. Technically, Part 2 doesn't exist yet so it looks like I'll have to take another thumbs down hit.
hi there good work... you might benefit from watching the canada made NFB film called THE DEVIL'S TOY from 1966.. similar to skaterdater and exposes the social disdain trend of skaters as outlaws.
I concentrated on television, though I'd like to incorporate The Devil's Toy somehow in a future review. Almost as quickly as Claude Jutra was rediscovered, his acclaim was quickly withdrawn after allegations from his illicit behavior came to light.
@@breadandcinemas6996 Claude the scumbag isn't the focus it's the skaters and the historical context - Yes many in film production and in the entertainment industry unfortunately have this evil problem !! (makes it prevalant , but not right).. To be fair the short was seen on TV many times growing up here in Canada - maybe not in context of wedged into a popular sitcom or drama . Thanks for your kindly reply ! Can you believe in Canada they are softening the laws now for Pedophiles? It's insane !
I’m confused. Is skateboarding in an act of war or something. The writer and the voice over makes it feel like there’s something serious about portrayal of image. Is it not a privilege to roll on anything and just turn to be free. Skateboarding is an escape, a joy to ride. A free ride. Expression of body and mind in motion. Nothing more or nothing less than a simple privilege to be free.

This was an incredible experience, a life long skateboarder, I learned a lot today, thanks for doing this
I remember seeing that CHiPs episode as a kid and that park has forever been my idea of skateboard paradise.
This is so great. And I have to go back and watch that Chips episode.
This was an incredible video, can't wait for part 2
Fantastic, absolutely needed this
Wow amazing job with linda carter plus Farrah faucet is 2 of the reasons why i feel in love with skateboarding
I'm a long time Slap modmin, and I'd forgotten all about Lumpkins. That whole period was insane.
Excellent work.
damn you should do something better with your life
@@i-never-look-at-replies-lol - No doubt, pookie! Please send my apologies to your mom.
Slap is a cesspool of PC gatekeeping. you're in toxic company shame on you
speaking of your mommie she'll be home soon to administer your diaper change.
yes slap is a piss pool
Wow! Remember those days it like you were invisible even though you could fly! thankyou for sharing
Thanks Bread for all the time and thought that obviously went into your essay. Please keep up the good work. Can't wait for part 2.

Stated in 87 the year my dad died. I was 12. You nailed it🤣
Nice research and compilation. We used to learn on a magazine and beta max or vhs about skateboarding. And riding on a flat nose skateboard.
Excellent piece, great story telling.
Let’s not forget Spicoli falling out of the vdub with smoke everywhere skating off to ridgemont high
Not forgotten.
EFFFF SPICOLI ...

Great Doc. I was there.
Born in 69 in the “valley” of San Fernando. Started at 6 riding a “pro class” with orange slalom wheels. And never looked back.just turned 55 last week and completed building an entire wood skatepark for a youth group at my church. Still skate with my 18 and 27 yr old sons. life is good if I can still skate.
So that’s where I saw those Peralta Gslides😂
this is pretty great. thank you for this.
thanks for this
I’m digging the ‘68 Cougar in the opening sequence. Not nearly as much as I dig Lynda but it’s still cool.
I miss skating back in the 90s. That was the best era imo.
As a skater from that era: “We skated because there weren’t rules or authority. And that’s what you heard in the music too. We were done with being told what to do and we couldn’t care less about what you thought, or your tv image of us.” End quote
incredible video.

Ha, like any stolen skateboard would ever be taken seriously to end up in property recovery for an i.d. check 😂
incredible. thank you
excellent job!!
As an actor, you never want a "mongo pushing stand-in"
agree
Great job
I just started last year eeeeeeeeheeeeeee!
(Not counting that plastic yellow 'banana' board from when I was 5)...
✨🧙🏾♂️✨
Anything with wheels was dangerous for me back in the day had many bails and injured myself lol

I didn’t have one and almost didn’t get to enter the park
Fortunately my older brother found one after asking around
I had pads already so I don’t remember if it was just the helmet or knee pads and helmet
Any way
My brother was always looking out
I had so much fun that day
It was the most fun I had with my friends skateboarding
I’m glad kids today have skateboarding parks all over the place and it’s free
End hate, go skate! 🛹🛹🛹🌏🌎🌍

Mounting trucks on backwards is nothing less than a provocation of war.

All pending copyright claims have been released after filing appeals. This is one is finally here to stay, for now.
If anything, this is a reminder of just how stupid Hollywood is. The whole concept is moronic. Glad i stepped away from television.

Wonder Woman Mongo push.
The narration is so weird.
Total propaganda
Good god what a stupid show.
Wo bro, your elocution, beyond queen's English.
