Title: what happened to Steven Reeves?
Post by: gsosa on July 30, 2022, 08:09:02 PM
I was watching a Thrasher tour vid and he was on it, and remembered how dope and exciting this dudes skating was, and he seemed to be on Creature, Bones (apparently Dieta later on) and a couple of other established brands and all of the sudden he just faded out. I had completely forgotten about him but it was dope to revisit his footage. Anyone know what happened to him and if he still skates?

the question that needs to be answered. I remember him from a lot of the vans downtown showdowns and loved his style and how raw he was. made me look into black label as a 9 year old and was stoked ever since 


also not to sound like some conspiracy nut, but what does the whole "watched !" thing mean on my account. I keep seeing it and I was like what the hell, never noticed it before. and while scrolling at work as a lurker, I noticed like one other person also has it

I think he was in an episode of silicon valley. Wonder if there's a connection

He is on the ‘gram. Looks like he is still ripping, has a lovely wife, and just welcomed a beautiful baby boy into the world a couple months ago.

Rock on, Steven.!

That guy seems like he got it figured out.

Sidebar: did anyone catch the Gifted Hater twitch stream on Friday night. There was a whole bit about "How are there so many software engineers in the chat?"

Does anyone remember the video that he was sort of the "main guy" in? I remember the video having a running theme around some kind of beer, like there were sketches set up to parody beer commercials. One dude wore stupid sweaters and skated to "Welcome To Miami" by Will Smith and ripped. I remember Steven having some pretty sick footage in that video.

EDIT*

I found it, it was called "Skirdoosh". Looks like Steven has uploaded parts to his YouTube channel. Wouldn't mind watching it in it's entirety again, used to watch it pretty regularly towards the end of high-school.
