add whatever you can find and post stories if you have them

back around when i first got into skating, learning tricks, and finding out what was what, the emerica team had a signing at the local shop. heath stood out the most, he was probably one of the most genuine people i have ever met and talked to. he was a down to earth person who came in and hung out just like a local. after the signing he watched videos, skated some flat out front with everyone that stayed around, joined in conversations, and a bunch of other stuff. he sticks out as one of the coolest pros that have ever swung by this way

i saw Heath at a demo in 1995 in Baton Rouge.  He was acting weird, and wearing long sleeves inside of the warehouse in the middle of summer.  He skated for a few minutes, then freaked out and ran through the ghetto screaming.

Heath was one of the first pros I met, as well. He's a cool guy, as well as being an amazing skater.
Ha SLAP's resident libtard and NY pro cocksucker.

he's always been one of my favorites. hes really good, really creative, really gnarly, and a bit under rated.

He's one of the best.
His lipslide down El Toro was so ahead of its time.

Always a favorite, but at the same time I kind of forget about him sometimes, so when I see some coverage  I get soooo stoked on him. One of the gnarliest with one of the best styles. Does anyone know if his new shoes is any good?

Quote from: YouTube
No Videos found for 'heath kirchart anthology'

that was pretty much my inspiration when i was little. last time i saw him skating he was skating a wombo toy machine. so if hes off alien it would blow but at least the machine video coming out in two years will be hella good.
Han solo blew up the Death Star in Episode 4.  Heard it from a friend.  Reliable source.
