I would rather watch Gino SKate than watch him fucking talking. I miss the old skate mags in which you would see SKATEBOARDING. Not some wack cunt posing in sunglases. Skateboarders are cool and all but I don't think they are very interesting to hear. More skating Less talking/posing.

That's because you've never watched Gino find the perfect cantaloupe at Whole Foods while some Coltrane is playing.  Life changing.

That was cool.  But I gotta say, a lot of heads are putting pressure on the guy to come up with an epic Guy-style-part.  Dude is 37 years old.  I'm still super stoked to see whatever he comes up with... but he is 37 years old.  

Just sayin!

True, true!  But how many Kostons (or any other similar dudes that have been continually ripping for years, without interruption) are there? And Lance is up there (45 or 46) too for sure, but he skates tranny, which is much MUCH easier on the knees.

I just don't want to get my hopes up too high and get let down.  The fact is, we've seen the best of Gino...  At least that's what I'm holding onto!  If I'm wrong and he one ups Guy for the comback part of the year... Well, it'll make it even sweeter wouldn't it?

I'll enjoy whatever I get.

What I mean is that Lance can put out a part consisting of the same tricks he's done for 30 years and we can be stoked on it (& I definitely was - Lance is a favorite).

For guys like Gino who were once super progressive & technical (which Lance will be the first to say he never was) I think there's a little more pressure to "top yourself."

I hope Gino isn't feeling that pressure & just puts out a sick part with some stylish lines. I don't need a Guy-style comeback from him - I just wanna see him roll, like most of us here I think.

it was cool lil interview he seems like a pretty mellow dude. like whats been said before hes 37 and is past his prime. he's just skatin to have fun. hell have a re-watchable part in the chocolate vid but i doubt itll be that "super epic comeback part" or whatever. this will probably be his last one unless he does something for a future SB Chronicles vid.

it's easy to hate on what he's doing when you have unremarkable ability on a skateboard. it's impossible for you to put yourself in his shoes because you will just never have an inkling of what it's like to be gino. man's an artist that doesn't wanna water down his discography with some bullshit webclip, it's a good thing.

I loved Ron Allen's one footers when I was a kid.
Plus the airwalk to boardslide a handrail blew my mind over 20 years ago.
