So Mark Appleyard is still on Element; working on a videopart to drop later this year.

And hes into kids stuff cause hes a dad now. At what point this guy become a boring adult ?!  

Anyway, hes also working on a create a clothing company; hope thats something tight. Hes all time favorite !

[Bloody Matt]

Appleyard claims he hasn't won contests in this interview but he did in fact win the under 16 in a thing I organised at Slot Machine in Grimsby back in 97 or so.

[Andrefosho]

Fire show.

based on what he said in this interview, that's quite a stretch

[i used to skate]

on another note, is it weird that a company like Globe still exists, let alone has a team that it pays regularly?

where do they sell Globe? do they do any videos or ads?

Surfshops. I always liked Apples Globe shoes. 

Actually Mark Appleyard skating on a bunch off Globe videos is pretty awesome to watch.





Dude, that song is amazing.

That other shoe that was around the time hes of Flip was also a good shoe. I liked the green ones with the One Love detail; that shoes and a hawaiian shirt. Pretty awesome.

The Mahalo is a good one. Comfy and theres a bunch of models, like the Mahalo runner here:





To be honest I dont mind Mark Appleyards shoes out on the market even in the year 2040. The guy knows whats good.   

[ice nine]

there are tons of wack people who are into skating, and they have money and are going to buy shit too. he markets to those people and it seems to work. see above ^^^.

[Paul Cicero]

Pretty rad that he makes enough money to buy his mum a house outright.

[Tracer]

His Mom is cool as fuck she lives in the Cayman islands and visits the Pearl frequently. Had a chance to talk with her Mark visits the islands sometimes, if he bought her a house there serious life hammer property is cripplingly expensive. Coldwell Banker KY still sends me their quarterly reports I'm looking at one right now lol

i've heard some crazy rumours about why that place closed down and normally i'd question it but niagara region is a weird fucking place. do you know anything about why it closed down? 

[Paul Cicero]

Loving this since I recently moved and have a longer drive to work now! Can someone explain (going back I know) the supra stuff in the Stevie episode you guys are talking about, must have missed something?

This was hilarious, I agree on the J Lee story, so good. As someone who's sees and skates with mike it hilarious to see he held nothing back on this.

[Shifty Flip]

To good.

i am pretty sure they were running hard drugs out of there, I can't be specific. I do remember the owner having blonde dreads. It was a pretty sweet park, used to see mark causally destroy it .
I got second  place  appleyard in two contest growing up, which I considered a huge win, the gap between him and the rest of us was obviously unreal.
seeing him skate as a kid really put skateboarding into perspective for me.

The owner's name was Zack and he did have blonde dreads. He lived in this huge pool house on his wife's parent's property which was on the lake in Grimsby. The rumour I heard was the Zack and his wife got charged with kidnapping and assault after putting someone in the trunk of the car and stabbing him. Zack would often slip out the skatepark around the same time two huge men would come in asking for him. A couple of years after the park shut down I saw him doing road clean up in a jump suit. We made eye contact but didn't speak. His blonde dreads were gone by that point. I remember being pretty bummed on him for keeping a bunch of product that a sponsor for that contest sent up to us late after I'd done all of the leg work to set up the event. FUCK YOU, ZACK!

That is the story, nice little peninsula chat over here, there isn't a single independent skate shop left in Niagara.

Funny how Jason Lee was so sensitive, if you dish it out you should be prepared to deal with it. And I remember seeing that Crailtap clip! Great interview. Wish they asked him what trick "The Devil Worshipper" is, been wondering about that since I read it in Transworld.

oh so it was true haha okay then. thanks!

[Beeda Weeda]

I remember when stereo first came back, I bought that firs tour(way out east?) video on dvd and it was so fucking bad I was literally upset with Jason lee, he showed a slow mo of himself doing a washed up 360 flip to fakie on a ditch bank 3x, it made me angry and I hoped the company would go under.

[j....soy.....]

Keegan told me he didn't have a great time with Stereo either......

I don't care who you are....you have to get down with other skaters...you never really see that with him...he always seems like he has more important shit to do....

Good episode....not sure if I'd kick Scotty at this point.....

Sad to hear Zack was stripped of his dreads....

[mattchew]

Sick episode. So stoked on that little Travis Stenger update!!!

[Chris Hansen is back]

Good episode....not sure if I'd kick Scotty at this point.....

My thoughts exactly.

[Paul Cicero]

Gailea episode was fucking rad. ISUCK, why didn't you want that kid to get his shine?

[Beeda Weeda]

i am about to listen to this after work, pretty stoked.

Zack once sent goons to my house looking for payment. Full Roadhouse style. Pops chased them off with an old shotgun.
