It still trips me out when I get text from him, hes the fucking nicest dude ever and just loves skating so much. He's all sober and cleaned up his life and still ripping over 40!

First time I ever saw Sheffey I was visiting friends in SD and ironically was skating a rock when he cruised by on his mountain bike.  Made the trick and almost rolled into him.  It was pretty epic.

Sheffey is a ground breaker and stylish mofo. Original east coast powerhouse.

That line with the switch tre and switch flip at the greyhound bumps always/still gets me so hyped.

its funny how much people hate on lifestyle shots now, and truthfully they pretty much all do suck, but Sheff's are timeless. Especially the one of him ollieing over his kid in the car...okay, maybe not entirely a lifestyle shot, but its still something that could have not made the final cut of questionable. And to me its really prolific

You can't bum on that. Sheff is the best.

He randomly had a few super sick clips in this Danny mimmick (sp) video Genie of the Lamp.  Switch flipping nollie flipping over benches and stuff.  So gnarly

Wish I has that VHS tape

That's not what prolific means. I used to think it meant what you do, but it means they produced a lot- so Mark Suciu is a prolific video part  producer, and Nyjah Huston is a prolific contest skater.

I agree with you for the most part though. still every time I've seen one of those cars since I saw that video I think "damn, how the fuck do you ollie over that fucking thing?

The back tail on the picnic table is one of the most amazing clips I've ever seen.

A personal favourite of mine for many years. The one foot landing makes it so much better.
