If he rode for Anti-Hero this would of been one of the greatest parts ever.

I always wondered how he landed on 101. Found this interview from ~2007 with him just now:

I can see why he may not have been the most reliable pro from the companies' points of view, but he's got some pretty good stories for sure.

Somebody did an identical post about this part and how if "he was another person this part would be" thing a couple of years ago here.   He got delegated because he made a rail with a ski jump at the end to flip out of.  Too many cargo pants, controversy with Muska and shit talking in an interview.   He's a chill dude tho.

but this should be in my 411VM Best Of vol.5 appreciation thread...

jokes aside, he was definitely ahead of his time. his style was always rough as, in a great raw way but I guess right around the time he should have reached his peak, everybody was already looking up to a current of fresher dudes, thinking Girl / Choc fam or Stereo. were he to put out lines from this exact 411VM segment nowadays, with AVE and other aggressive styles being popular again, he would definitely get... Instagram likes ? nah, actually, fuck that.

He was always a favorite growing up, both of these parts aged well.

I used to love that 411 part and imagined that he was the best skateboarder in the world. Today it's more in the guilty pleasure category, but that's okay too.

That nollie flip out of the bowl straight over the massive table is still amazing.

The self cheering stinkbug front flip in the 411 really sums it up well.

Thanks, I’ve never seen that. Say what you want, but really liked him on 101. His snuff part had some good stuff too.

Thanks for posting that, Willy.


His style reached peak weirdness in Snuff. He'd bend over and to the side after landing a trick, and his arms would do some sort of windmill rotation.

Any OG with super knowledge know what those 1st pressed Goodtimes boards looked like?
How feasible/cheap is it to start a silk-screening facility in your garage?
I got beef with Brian sumner and it’s onsite for that fat fucking red coat.

you could probably rig it up for less than $100 bucks in 1992-94
 The only thing that is difficult is getting access to a screen burner to burn the images on to the screen and the screens themselves. You could rig up a home made press with random parts from a hardware store.

Always loved that evol section. The Genitorturers tune makes it pinnacle even though I wouldn't usually listen to that shit in a million years.

He's before my time but I noticed that too. He "had a certain lean." New thread?

Jeez. Never saw that before. I've seen a few of those on instagram but not the full thing. bs 360 nollie flip over the wall was super sick. His style looks like it was getting more polished at this point.

I don't know that answer, but his claim that they were "11 color screened" is dubious. I mean, it's not impossible, but I don't think anyone was doing more than 8-9 colors even in a professional shop, and he's doing 11 in his garage?
