I saw the Kelly Bird thread and was like, isn't it time for a new Bobshirt video? And here it is! Hallelujah!

Not one question about 1st & Hope or Free Pegasus? Still good to see this dude gets some shine, but woulda been nice to hear more about those 2, which are both amazing and unique skate videos.

bobshirt interviews are always incredible, but it shocks me how good their memories are. he pulls out a board and lottie instantly remembers it. from who made it to basically exactly when it came out.

That now n later part is One of my favs... i know he hated the commentary, but i always thought it was pretty funny...

I remember in the early 2000s i heard he had left skating to join a Hare Krishna church or something ha... granted i was a little kid so it sounded believable... i actually never knew he had so many injuries.

Great interview, I always get excited when I see new Bobshirt stuff come up.

Does anyone else remember this?

It's got a handful of Lotti tricks in it, I feel like it's been mostly forgotten though.

This is great too, if you keep an eye out he tends to pop up here and there in stuff still occasionally.

That's one of my favourite parts. First and Hope and Blue Line are also excellent. He's before my time but everything he puts out has been awesome. His paintings are amazing as well, I hope to own one in the future.

Just wanted to say, Brian is such a great guy in person. Super fun to skate with and good for a laugh. I miss hanging out with him.

Hare Krishna is not that far off , he actually moved here to Hawaii to be with Buddhist monks, apparently he was super into Zen Buddhism at the time and I remember hearing about this and being like "no fuckin way" but we started seeing him pop up at our local park and he was actually still skating.

It was very trippy to see him in person , it wasn't like he was a weirdo but the dude was definitely reserved and kept to himself kinda, we only knew about this from our homie Andy Henrie (former Nike SB team manager and same guy that was in NY with him when he saw Gino do the 360 ollie down the double set in Yeah Right)

Anyway this dude rules, I celebrate the guy's entire catalog, fuck, imagine if that full length Blind video with him, Henry, Guy, Rudy, Jeron, Bertino and Gavin ever came out, holy shit.

Brian Lotti was before my time but I appreciate this guy and his stories.  Seems like my kind of skater.  Thanks for posting

What a great fella he is!

I wish there was more talk about his later career.. Always been a fan of his paintings too, a true originator
