Thank You, Powell-Peralta Team for bringing these decks BACK to us Old (40+) Dudes. I’ve been carving on a Pin-Tail longboard for years, but I’ll be adding a few P-P Decks to my X-Mas list this year…my Wife will understand…she had the 2nd Hawk XL model & a Cab mini back in the day, both will GullWing trucks (rich Girl). RiP, Ripper Glasses, though…that’s a damned shame
I love how excited you get about your boards and gear. It reminds me of how we were in the 80s where every board you got was a new shape and always different colors for wheels and grip tape. Popsicles are nice and all but I miss the graphics and shapes we used to have. 🤘😎🤘
Thank You, Powell-Peralta Team for bringing Production of these decks BACK to us Old (40+) Dudes. I’ve been riding on a Pin-Tail longboard for years, but I’ll be adding a few P-P Decks to my X-Mas list this year. my Wife will understand…she had the 2nd Hawk XL model & a Cab mini back in the day, both will GullWing trucks (rich Girl)…I could only order the completes with Ventures & Rat-Bones. RiP, Ripper Glasses, though…that’s a damned shame
Just wanted to say thank you! I was having a really tough day, depression is a bitch. But seeing you so stoked and happy. Then skating that box, pulverizing those pint glasses accidentally, trying to open another box with wax, hell the whole video lol helped pull me out of a dark place. Thanks man. Happy Thanksgiving. Much love, keep being you!! :) ✌️✌️
Love your style. We teach kids in our skateboarding programs how to skate. It would be so awesome to have Powell do a demo for us. That would be AMAZING!!
Chris. You are the goat man. You've got one of the most distinct styles of skating in the entire industry. Your attitude and demeanor and character is admirable man. Always smiles always happy. Your positivity is infectious bro you will go far in this industry.
My first board was a Steve Cab. I really love your style Chris. Keep ripping. I'm 50 now but you inspire me. I may get back on a board. I miss riding so much. Also love the videos you do with the guys over at Brail.
Amazing decks! Love the per welinder! But the shape of the Steve saiz is really beautiful. Congrats Chris! What a haul! I can't wait to see your own pro model! You so deserve it
Bro, I love how you ride old school boards. Keeping us old(er) skaters alive. I still have a 99% mint condition Christian Hosoi hammerhead Deck with limited edition Christian Hosoi indie trucks and slimeball wheels and reds brand bearings I had it built in a skate shop in Hawaii where Christian used to go to get his gear when he was coming up. Many many posters in there of him with his signature to the skate shop.... I really REALLY LOVE IT.... So, no... You can't have it 🤣 Keep up the fantastic fun my dude. You ROCK 🤘🤘
Those Powell Peralta boards are so artistic. I especially like that pink one! Cuz of you I just bought a yellow Chinese dragon Caballero Shaped board and loving it. Thanks for bringing these ol’school boards back and making it cool. So much cooler than the cookie cutter popsicle board.
My first board was a Vision Psycho stick. It's hard to believe people still ride these older style boards. This video makes me want to skate again but I'm old (45) and it's been at least 15 years. My dream for a long time when I was young was to go pro and move to California. My goodness the memories lol
The Per Welinder board was my very first one back in the days. It's the one I learnt the first tricks, including ollie (and that board has little to no tail). Such good memories.
I love your style and the old school decks you skate make me want to drop the popsicle shape all together! I want to find one of the pink ripper decks i see you skate all the time but I’ve never seen one in the wolf at a shop or online.
I watched your videos on RUclips and noticed in some you skate more contemporary shaped boards. I started skating in 1988 so the boards you normally skate are very familiar to me. What is the main reason you skate the old school shaped boards? I would think it's harder to do most tricks on the old ones. Love your vids
It's been so cold here in Michigan I haven't rode my pink Cab yet! Shaped and ready to get bionic like it's 1987! I also have a new Chris Gregson popsicle in case I want to do a nose slide. Lol
Mean while in Company: - Guys we are seriously having trouble marketing this boards from the 80s there is only 1 guy that's riding them on youtube! - Quick send him all we got. - You think he's gonna ride the package? - What no are you kidding me who does that? - OK I'm sending some Glass around hard wood boards in the same package then. - You sure that glass wont just spill all over the Boards? - It's be fine as long as no one skate the Box. - When has anyone ever skate a Box ... Chris: I got a thingy I'm skating it!
Ha ha. That was an epic way to open a box. Sad to see all that crushed glass. So this was the box The rockstar was supposed to get. Saw the NKA vid and thought: where were Chris’ shaped boards. Now I know. Was a shaped Powell Flight Ripper deck included in the batch? Hoping Chris can skate and review that one.
Awe the glasses. See Chris this is why we never have nice things 😉. But you do have some nice things indeed. Love the Per deck cause it was my first board and that tail pops so nice. I too just got a box this week can’t wait to ride my new Nora deck with 85 duro wheels. Stoked
Do you not like skating normal shaped decks ? Would love to see you skate one! Feel like your tricks would be easier for you to do and you’d be even better 😂🙌🏻
Actually, after watching for a bit longer I'm not entirely sure that the truck sizes that I said would be accurate. On my deck I have (I think) 159mm trucks so I'm assuming these may need to be 170mm (give or take) To maybe 183mm
You know,I love ur style of shredding. Inspires me to actually comment on more tricks. Lucky how ur sponsored by Powell and I love Powell lol. Well shred on bro.
Do you use iMovie to edit? Because I do and I have a skating channel like u but it’s not as good as yours btw I was wandering if you had a RUclips channel and now that I have found it you’ve got another subscriber ☺️
Fun video, Chris. We'll remember to mark fragile next time if necessary😁CHEERS!
Sorry about your cups
And the Chris model Powell Peralta?
@@paul.a.zoschke probably the same case with Andy Anderson. He had to make himself well known so his shaped board would be marketable
You’ll need to add a warning label on your glasses. “Not for rail slides”. 😂
Thank You, Powell-Peralta Team for bringing these decks BACK to us Old (40+) Dudes.

I am 50 years old, and when I was 16 Powell Peralta was my life. Love to see this stuff. Keep it up Chris you are crushing it.
I’m there with you!
Me 3! I'm 44 still kicking around a little bit!
Same my brotha!
If transition skating, get knee + elbow pads, those tees w/ rib pads, inner shorts with hip pads and palm protection. Thank me later.
Old school decks all the way, sorry lollipops
😂 you skated the box no way
Can't wait to see your pro model 🤘
I love how excited you get about your boards and gear. It reminds me of how we were in the 80s where every board you got was a new shape and always different colors for wheels and grip tape. Popsicles are nice and all but I miss the graphics and shapes we used to have. 🤘😎🤘
That feeling of going to the skate shop to get a complete new set up...can`t be beaten...

The welinder deck is a good one, but out of all the reissue decks they’ve made I think the cab dragon/bats deck is my favorite shape to skate
Just bought one a couple days ago
@@oliverharrison1313 it’s a good one, I’ve skated a lot of the reissues and I like the cab the best
You skated those cups hard! Lmaoo
Dude, we asked for this video and we got it 2 days later?! PP doesn't fuck around! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love your style. We teach kids in our skateboarding programs how to skate. It would be so awesome to have Powell do a demo for us. That would be AMAZING!!
Cups were hilarious! Can't wait to watch you skate the new decks!
thanks Chris, cant wait to see the board set up vids, have a great holiday!
First unboxing without a cutting tool EVER.
Great vid, Chris… love how you rock the OG board , keep nailin’ it
Getting my first Powell Peralta today! Ordered the Mini Cruiser Skull & Sword 8” Complete
Chris. You are the goat man. You've got one of the most distinct styles of skating in the entire industry. Your attitude and demeanor and character is admirable man. Always smiles always happy. Your positivity is infectious bro you will go far in this industry.
I guess the “Braille” way of opening the box isn’t the way to go ever🤣🤣🤣
My first board was a Steve Cab. I really love your style Chris. Keep ripping. I'm 50 now but you inspire me. I may get back on a board. I miss riding so much. Also love the videos you do with the guys over at Brail.
Go back to skate if you miss it, it’s worth every second 😉
never to late to come back!
@@jdoriginals9223 you are so right. I love watching you guys skate. Takes me back in time. When I was truly my happiest.
Play stupid games, get stupid prizes.
Respect the box!
Those Per Wellinder boards😍💯 do a board set up with the yellow wheels 😍
Amazing decks! Love the per welinder! But the shape of the Steve saiz is really beautiful. Congrats Chris! What a haul! I can't wait to see your own pro model! You so deserve it
The dream sponsor. They take amazing care of their team and have the sickest graphics in the business.
Bro, I love how you ride old school boards.
Keeping us old(er) skaters alive.
I still have a 99% mint condition Christian Hosoi hammerhead Deck with limited edition Christian Hosoi indie trucks and slimeball wheels and reds brand bearings I had it built in a skate shop in Hawaii where Christian used to go to get his gear when he was coming up. Many many posters in there of him with his signature to the skate shop.... I really REALLY LOVE IT.... So, no... You can't have it 🤣
Keep up the fantastic fun my dude. You ROCK 🤘🤘
chris has been hanging with the Braille dudes so much that now he is opening boxes in crazy ways
I think you need to tell customer service "The glasses broke in shipping", they'll never know what you did
Until they see this video 😂
Love your videos man, always sending out good vibes :)
Those Powell Peralta boards are so artistic. I especially like that pink one! Cuz of you I just bought a yellow Chinese dragon Caballero Shaped board and loving it. Thanks for bringing these ol’school boards back and making it cool. So much cooler than the cookie cutter popsicle board.
Can't wait to see ur pro model... Your my fav skater fur suressss 💯
Do a stained glass project with that lol
That's the first thing I thought too, you could do a pretty sick mosaic with epoxy resin 👍👍
Great minds think alike 🤘
Wow I totally forgot about the Totem deck - haven't seen one of those since 1989 dude.
Next video
"Chris hiett looking for new sponsor" 🤣🤣🤣
My first board was a Vision Psycho stick. It's hard to believe people still ride these older style boards. This video makes me want to skate again but I'm old (45) and it's been at least 15 years. My dream for a long time when I was young was to go pro and move to California. My goodness the memories lol

Such good memories.
Just got the blue per welinder deck for Christmas awesome decks funner than popsicle shaped decks
Got one of the Steve saiz boards last week .Love to see whats possible on those
Awesome video, I felt like we were 2 Bros hanging out in your front yard unboxing the Powell shit. Awesome man
Super dope bro
What kind of trucks you rockin!? Mini-logo ? Winkowski rides Indy 159 on his OG boards.
I love your style and the old school decks you skate make me want to drop the popsicle shape all together! I want to find one of the pink ripper decks i see you skate all the time but I’ve never seen one in the wolf at a shop or online.
Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole
I'll bet his ex-wife disagrees with you. 🤣
All that`s missing is a Tony Hawk "Medallion" reissue...come on Tony and the powers that be at Powell, MAKE IT HAPPEN ALREADY!!!!!!!
I love this guy! Super stylish
powell made some cool shapes back then i got a cab dragon in silver with the bat bones reissue ..its hanginf on wall .
OMGosh that blue one would of made me faint😂😂
Looking so fire PP
you have out done yourselves!
I'll forgive you for skating the box because I love how you appreciate old-school skateboarding!
Keep killing it Chris!!!! Watching you skate has inspired me to skate even harder!
I watched your videos on RUclips and noticed in some you skate more contemporary shaped boards. I started skating in 1988 so the boards you normally skate are very familiar to me.
What is the main reason you skate the old school shaped boards? I would think it's harder to do most tricks on the old ones. Love your vids
you are literally my skate inspiration, I love your style, just thought I should let you know
It's been so cold here in Michigan I haven't rode my pink Cab yet! Shaped and ready to get bionic like it's 1987! I also have a new Chris Gregson popsicle in case I want to do a nose slide. Lol
Sweet modern day info-mercial !!!

So awesome! can't wait for tomorrow morning at 10 for your video to drop! Powell Peralta, NKA and Chris Hiett! running shit!
AYYY HIT 20k!!! LETS GO CHRIS🖤🖤
just curious, have you ever tried skating the andy anderson deck and if so what did you think dude?
Best shards of glass unboxing I've ever seen 😆
Hey Chris hope you're doing good. Why do you skate the old school shapes don't you think you'd do more with a popsicle?
What a nice box sen! Hot dang!
Per is one of my favorites too! Love skating it..
So fucking happy to see you getting more views. Keep it up dude you're clearly getting more comfy in front of the camera, you're the goat ❤
If I've learned anything from Braille it's never to ship anything fragile to a pro skater.
Mean while in Company:
- Guys we are seriously having trouble marketing this boards from the 80s there is only 1 guy that's riding them on youtube!
- Quick send him all we got.
- You think he's gonna ride the package?
- What no are you kidding me who does that?
- OK I'm sending some Glass around hard wood boards in the same package then.
- You sure that glass wont just spill all over the Boards?
- It's be fine as long as no one skate the Box.
- When has anyone ever skate a Box ...
Chris: I got a thingy I'm skating it!
im so glad you were in some braille stuff; your skating is great and your personality is even better! keep being an awesome example man. good shit!
Best part is the broken cups 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Could I get one of your old decks ? Please would love to get back into skating again .
Remember what Bob Ross says,
"No mistakes, just happy accidents."
Love your new bio vid!
Stay shredding!
Ha ha. That was an epic way to open a box. Sad to see all that crushed glass. So this was the box The rockstar was supposed to get. Saw the NKA vid and thought: where were Chris’ shaped boards.

They wrapped it so nicely in bubblewrap too xD
Hey Chris, what size trucks do you ride?
BEST UNBOXING EVER ONG
6:36 ordered one of this should be here soon can’t wait to skate it!!!!
Watching you destroy and that style of deck is amazing. I'm not poking fun or disparriaging your selection. I've tried one. Amazing work!
Seems like such a nice guy
Love your skateboarding!!
Do you not like skating normal shaped decks ? Would love to see you skate one! Feel like your tricks would be easier for you to do and you’d be even better 😂🙌🏻
ruclips.net/video/JnWhh2VtXgw/видео.html this one shows him riding a normal deck
Hey Chris, feel free to ignore my comment, but what size truck do you throw on those shapes?
Probably around 183mm or 254mm
Actually, after watching for a bit longer I'm not entirely sure that the truck sizes that I said would be accurate. On my deck I have (I think) 159mm trucks so I'm assuming these may need to be 170mm (give or take) To maybe 183mm
When we getting a Chris pro model?
love ur vids u inspire me a lot
No worries about the glass, stay alive 🖤
glasses shoulda been shipped seperate ...but it made for a great entertaining video
I wish i could have one of those deck for Christmas ❤
Man that sucks about the glasses, I could make a cool resin project from the broken glass though lol
What a quiver! Great video
the cups!! XD oh no sick
Hey Chris. Will there be giveaways????
LIFE HACK: with those straps, if you find the end of the strap on the UNDERSIDE, it is easily peeled apart. Enjoy!
I smashed that like button, like you smashed that glass.
We all said how come Chris didn’t get any reissues in the last video !!! Guess they heard us 🤣
Can't wait for you pro model to drop I need two 😁 keep being the best you man 💪
Sorry to learn of the passing of them glasses man! I keep rewatching the start and going for an emotional Rollercoaster. RIP
dude when will you get your pro board ??????
love you chris actually my favorite skater
You know,I love ur style of shredding. Inspires me to actually comment on more tricks. Lucky how ur sponsored by Powell and I love Powell lol. Well shred on bro.
Wow that's a nice box full of decks.
And glass lul
I've never seen anyone perform a magic ritual with a skateboard before.. 😉
The Rubber Boyz, our first introduction to Steve Saiz. Trying to find a Saiz re-issue deck in Canada is next to impossible. :(
Love this!
Do you use iMovie to edit? Because I do and I have a skating channel like u but it’s not as good as yours btw I was wandering if you had a RUclips channel and now that I have found it you’ve got another subscriber ☺️
Hey Chris, what trucks do you like to skate?
