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

GOD this was need appreciation thread
mother fucker gets me so siked
saw him at the banks jam and its so unreal hes so nasty

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.
-
he can punch pretty hard.
-
Heath was one of the first pros I met, as well. He's a cool guy, as well as being an amazing skater.

cool story
-
he's always been one of my favorites. hes really good, really creative, really gnarly, and a bit under rated.
-
Heath is a beast... one of the greats!
-
always been one of my favorites.
-
certified badass with skate credentials that are unquestionable
-
dude is sick. definitely would be skating big shit even if it wasn't "in"
-
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?

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.

His parts always get me hyped, nice dude too

skating switch is boring-heath kirchart

dont forget his sight unseen part..... hammers with amazing style, especially that last tailslide that he came out regular....
i had 2 pairs of his emerica shoes.... the ones that looked like space boots..... they lasted forever but the board feel was terrible....

his transworld part and his shared birdhouse partds were soooo good

I had a pair in black and white and they looked like space shuttles but skated good. Ive always loved his skating since I saw The End, I thought the rest of that video was shit though besides Heath and Reynolds.

Yea Heath is rad. For some reason I confused heath with Austin Stephans for a second when I read the title... ???

i think thats actually in the old animated gif night thread.
That old footage of heath as a kid with josh beagle is really cool. When he goes to a bar in the ghetto and all that.
-
sight unseen is basically one of the best videos of all time, with amazing skating contributed by cardiel, henry sanchez, dustin dollin and kirchart....
Kircharts tailslides to regular on rails were what inspired me to learn tailslides..... to come out fakie from a tailslide is easy but to turn it back regular is hard and just looks way better....
lets hope kircharts next part is not his last....
-
i love hateless slap threads.
-
the thing about heath is, he skates gnarly as fuck, awesome style, always one upping himself, and he's had longevity in the gnarly game. Lots of people come out of the gates droppin hammers and burn out real quick, heath jus tdoes it, forever, at night.

I get chills from the kickflip he eats shit on down the gap in I think it was four wheel drive or another old tws video.

i wonder who would win in a gnarly-weird off heath or rowley.

his switch flip manual on top of a picnic bench going mach ten is insane. mosaic. also the line with a sw nosegrind 180 out into slowmotion and then gp to lipslide the rail is great.

he is for sure my favorite "hammer" skater , he has the nicest Lipslide and front tail ( i will never forget his Sight Unseen Part or his Birdhouse the end part - CLASSIC!!)
I'm waiting for his next big part ... does anyone have some news about that ??
-
Such a raw skater, one of the most stylish hammer throwing skaters ever.
I still watch his sight unseen part all the time, that whole vid is fuckin sick, minus tosh's part (im sorry but the music alone for tosh's part made it suck)
-
Yeah Heath's great, that shared part with Jeremy Klein is one of my favorites ever.
Slightly interesting side note, Panda Bear from Animal Collective has said that Heath's part in Sight Unseen was his favorite part ever. It's cool to know that somebody like that is not only into skating, but has good taste in it as well.

You mean the Tosh part? Apparently he hit a girl with his car and killed her. I remember hearing that rumor in 02ish, and I'm fairly sure it's true. And I guess that whoever posted that thinks Brent needs to switch up his trick selection. I don't post on that site, just lurk it every once in a while looking for bootlegs.

Old thread but whatever, heard a good story the other day.
So apparently Heath wanted to skate Bob's Mega but Bob was on vacation. Heath and Mike Manzoori sneak onto the Mega and Heath starts trying it, walking back up the hill after each try. Bob's dad hears the noise and comes down the hill to check things out. In the process of scuttling to hide, Manzoori hits his head and needs medical attention. They go take care of Manzoori and Bob ends up calling Heath and inviting him back to try again.

Heath's Sight Unseen part is probably my favorite of his. So hard to choose though. Dude is a fucking beast.

There’s an old slap thread when the workshop video was being filmed and everyone was saying what a joke Heaths part would be. How he’s lazy and hasn’t filmed shit. Saw it a couple months ago and got a good laugh.
Said it many times here but I was just like 15 and he sat around and talked to me and my friends for an hour or so and was cool as could be.

So sick. His cross country bike adventure is really inspiring too. I'll be riding my bike from Seattle to Portland in July but can't imagine doing it cross country with absolutely no training at all.

When I was very young I got the Sight Unseen VHS as a gift, I watched it over, and over.
My favorite part was Heath, 'Knights in White Satin' just fit it so beautiful and even though I was young, I could appreciate the art direction and Heaths style.
He's remained my favorite skater since. I wish he didn't retire early but that's just how he is so I can't say much.

He snubbed me as a kid, but I don’t blame him

met him briefly on the Stay Flared tour in Denver. he was just sulking between the two vans after the demo by himself. I asked him to sign my old 2002 Emerica team poster that I brought and he obliged. Carroll was in a similar gruff mood. all in all, a great day :)

i skated the 2010 berrics once with a homie, manny was there, some dude and oscar meza, the went to get some food and offered us a sub, we declined but asked if we could stay in the meantime, they locked us in and asked us to be respectful and if anybody comes just to let them know why we were there, so yeah. Couple of minutes went by and we hear a motorcycle parking out front, heath came in and just nodded at us, and started skating flat, full fucking speed just hitting the metal qps (back and forth, no kickturn)and busting a flatground trick in the middle, did all kikflips all frontside flips, all the backsideflips, 360flips and then he just halfcab boarded the 7 stair and left, we could not process what the fuck was going on, didnt even say anything at all. One of the best days of my life for fucking sure, i still cant fucking believe it.

Damn, this is an awesome story. Gotta think that seeing him skate in a setting like that is like seeing a unicorn.
I was at Tampa Pro in 2011, and at some point during the awards one of them shouted out Heath who was sitting above the rest of the spectators by himself. Not quite the rafters, but high enough to where nobody could sit with him. He seemed kinda bummed to be outed like that but it was still a cool moment.

I was feeling pretty burnt and hungry at my local when he pulls up out of nowhere with two of his homies, i wasnt sure if it was him then i saw the Workshop board and shat myself. no one else in the park knew who he was and fuckin snaked him like 5 times as he was trying figure out how to find the speed to boost the fuck out of a back three over this pretty burly hip. he got a couple that he wasnt stoked on, his two homies were filming, but finally got a good one and left right after. which i was really hoping he wasnt gonna do. im stoked tho he tapped his board when i got a pretty nice nollie backside flip over a much more mellow hip on the pyramid. at least im pretty sure he did as i was trying hard as fuck with all the self control i could muster to not look over at him as soon as i landed it. i hella regret not saying whats up but i wasnt sure if he'd be stoked or bummed on it

Chops at Chromeball had Dave Swift talk about shooting Heath Kirchart for pretty much his whole career. There's a UCI section, the story of HK working on handrail bs nose blunts for his first Hook Ups ad, and attempting to get the cover of the first issue of The Skateboard Mag:

@rocklobster agreed
another fs tail - this one on an 11 stair curved rail at night (second pic):

I always visualize my front arm / shoulder pointing forwards in the same way he does his FS Tailslides, its the difference between a controlled exit or flopping out Fakie.

Missed out on the Stay Gold B-sides in the time I wasn't skating, damn. Having the camera crew on the Mega Ramps puts into perspective how huge that thing is, just standing on the drop in you can hear how desolate the place is.
In classic Kirchart fashion, he takes the worst slams enroute to landing his tricks but when he does it's picture perfect.

I think that's my favourite era Heath along with the late Alien one. Thanks for posting.
On a semi-related note, I've only ever seen that spot in Sean Sheffey's part in Mouse, and then only a few weeks ago it popped up in another 90s video I saw for the first time, and now here.

I was in Des Moines, Iowa last weekend and ran into him at Subsect skate shop.
He was really nice, I guess he used to own the shop and still owns the building.
Pretty cool to meet a legend in person.

Beautiful, I've not ventured into his back catalog (only Sight Unseen and after) so this was rad. It's weird to see someone so light footed on handrails, and he always looks like he's got the perfect posture to roll away with zero sketchiness.

I've been to that park several times and that box jump is no fucking joke. I was tripping looking at it knowing that Heath did that back 3.
