Title: The Skately "Library" / Skate Nerd Heaven
Post by: streetPirate22 on August 14, 2010, 09:20:11 AM
Check it out, Skately has a "library" of videos, brands & people from the last few decades. It's crazy seeing all the old brands and videos, talk about a stroll down memory lane! http://skate.ly/library/ (http://skate.ly/library/)

Holy shit! The person that did this put in a butt load of work.
Back when I was a kid I owned the very first Foundation video
called "Glam Boys (too cool to skate)"
This was back in 1990. I thought the video was terrible but since I only
owned 2 VHS tapes, I watched it all the time.
I went looking for it on this site and found it
and the dude chronicled it part for part. T
Hell, he put up every Foundation video
ever made! (correct me if I'm wrong)
If i wasn't leaving for work right now I'd probably waste the
whole day looking at this site
(stupid job!  >:( )

Thank you all for your kind words, it means a lot to know all our work is being appreciated. We are looking to preserve skateboarding's history through it's various brands, videos & people, and welcome help in any form. So if you had, have or know of a small brand that we haven't included, please e-mail us the info and a logo (if possible), and we'll get that page built. Or if you appeared in a video that we don't feature, please e-mail us and we'll see about adding it to your page or building a page for you. Our one stipulation is that the video must be at least 2-3 years old, as we aren't looking to take away from video sales or the livelihood of filmers, etc. Thanks again, and keep skating.

i owned so many old skate vhs tapes and thought i'd never get to watch them again when they were lost, especially the big brother videos.  so stoked to get to watch them now.

Post by: Stanley Hol on August 17, 2010, 08:31:28 AM
This is hands down the best thing i've ever seen.


If only to stop myself over-romanticizing videos that were actually pretty mediocre...

Videoradio is a good example of this.    Shouldn't be thought of as a classic just cause you saw it when you were 14 and now you haven't got a copy.


Thanks again though.

Skate.ly - I created a profile and have been using the site all day.

One question, when you "like" a part or video, is there a way to view all the videos/parts you "liked" in your profile?
Title: Re: The Skately "Library" / Skate Nerd Heaven
Post by: onsomefelixshit on August 18, 2010, 09:59:14 PM
This site rules, but it looks like some of the videos got deleted from YouTube.  Who the fuck is "The Orchard" and how can they claim ownership of so many old skate videos?

Just finished up the library search, give it a shot.

Not at the moment, but we are working on a profile upgrade this week so you can see your history and liked stuff.

Beats me. It bums me out that some corporation can claim ownership of 15 year old skate videos by defunct companies. These guys even deleted the Fully Flared parts from Lakai's own YouTube channel.
