an ollie trick tip. I personally wouldn't want to show a kid a part and be like" this is how you should skateboard". That's whats wrong with 90% of faggots on slap. someone else formed their opinion for them.
This is actually a fair point but there's a difference between showing some young kid something just to get them stoked and showing them it while saying how good it is compared to some other type of skating.
yeah i thought this thread was asking what you would show a kid to get them interested in skateboarding, not a kid who's already interested and is trying to learn tricks.
as such, i think baker 3 would be a good one. say what you will about showing drug abuse to impressionable children or whatever, but my whole family sat through baker 3 entertained the entire time, it made it look fun and showed what was possible in skateboarding that someone who isn't familiar with it wouldn't know. they tried to watch strictly for skaters videos with me like the black box videos and were bored to tears. most of the older parts that people have mentioned fit that description of skater only audience, i doubt anyone would want to get into skating these days watching that ricky oyola part.
