His switch backlips were so fucking good.
-
He just had a tight switch back tail bigspin on the TWS site.
-
i guess he works for blackbox now or something. They had a 'employee best trick contest' and Emmers won by switch backtailing the double set rail (not kinked, but still a big rail over a doubleset).
check it out,

Imagine the Kayo company
golf skate tourney?
I'd actually eat hot dogs at the Blackbox one instead.

manual labor is the worst skate video of all time. Celentani should be shot for creating that nauseating testament to his own idiocy.
-
Brian Emmers was ahead of his time . He was coming up and then disappeared...
-
Emmers skated to DJ shadow, had tech tricks 10 years ago that I still havent seen done today, and had a good style. He needs to make a comeback
-
so good.........now think about some of the ledge skaters of today
-
I never understood how a man so tall with such big feet could skate a 7.4" board with so much control.
-
APPRECIATED, still see him around, he does great sw bk smith shoves, he skates big boards but yea he is 6'5" or something.. and he will kill anyone..in fact i think hes probobly killed a few poeple already. Dont expect a comeback but check out the Germ vid :'(
-
he is a dick head,,,,forreal...i met him along time ago...smart ass...ya he's ok but i would not want to see him skake..he had his time and blew it.....plus his tricks are wack....never really liked him...attitude for days....fuck him let him work...
-
1992, is that you?
-
dude was unreal on a skateboard
-
yeah he was kind of unbearable to skate around. i rolled up to washington one day and he was there trying to nollie backside flip it and was putting on one of the gayest displays of bitching ive ever seen. i still cant hate on him though he was clean as fuck and ahead of his time for sure.

Some one please remind me what did he do to get blackballed by the industry several years ago, before he disappeared. He wrote a letter of some kind to potential sponsors or something like that?
-

One time way back in the day my friends and I drove from Minneapolis to Green Bay to skate this little indoor park they had. Being dumb broke teens we were trying to figure out how to avoid paying to skate. One of us, may have even been me, came up with the bright idea of calling the park and saying we were the Nicotine Wheels team (I know) and we were in the area and wanted to check the park. Mind you we all could skate so we thought we would be able to pull this off no problem. Anyways long story short we got there only to see an unknown Brian Emmers completely destroying the park. Needless to say we were slightly shook but dude was cool as hell to us and we ended up skating for free.
