fred gall aka the answer
-
All his interviews lately have been epic. I hope it will be at least an hour long.
-
Nah but really tho, someone post a part/clip that shows why yall love this dude. I got nothing against him he was just never on my radar and not someone we cared about. Why is he the patron saint of SLAP
-
none other than bo turner [who hates everyone mind you] referred to fred gall as 'the baddest 13 yr old around' back in 93. if bo turner gives you high praise then you're hot shit.

Parts in Photosynthesis, Inhabitants, Timecode, Mosaic, everything else....his style, attitude, personality, thug life naked, saving monks in Cambodia, quaffing ability, etc. Pretty much the finest human being known to SLAP. Shit, I'm about to drink a box of beer and watch all his parts back to back for you.

that time that shit flat out stuck? skuh!

All the 411s with him are mad. Crazy switch stuff all over the place. He’s still very creative. He’s a OG Alien and Habitat dude and The game of skate against Shecks it’s a favorite Uncle Freddy moment but the man won my heart with the story about the building on fire. He rescued a bunch of monks and that it’s top-notch shit on life. Can’t wait for this episode.

fred gall is a fucking legendary and the type of man who keeps the mythology going around the globe of the badass american.

My go-to Uncle Fred part is Inhabitants. It's all street tranny with a nice touch of classic switch stuff thrown in. I remember watching it and thinking he had cracked the code of how skaters should film as they're getting older. That being said, I got into skating too late to really know about the young Freddy with the killer switch back 5-0's. East Coast's answer to Tom Penny.

His switch flip back tail in the Sub-Zero Real Life intro is still the best one ever done.
Reasons to love Freddy:
- New Fucking Jersey.
- Switch push.
- O.G. hunch.
- Hubba Hideout Massacre
- East Coast ATV
- 100% genuine - no time for faking
My personal favorite Fred Gall experience was at an old skateshop in Jersey City. For some reason someone had thrown in a local BMX video. It basically was just playing in the background for music... but not for Fred. Dude was super into it. He was hyped as fuck, and he was calling out tricks before they happened - but calling them by skateboard names. Hype man, for sure.
Looking forward to this.

Fred Gall can be hard to explain because there's so many rad things about the dude. It's like, why should we like cannabis?

Listen to the Tim O'Connor Show podcast with Fred Gall and Janoski and you will realize why everyone loves him.

It's the battle of the video tapes. There can only be one victor!

Yeah if you don't know Fred's history it's a little strange, people might not realize he was tech ledge King before he was Hesh Freddie. Things that stood out to me
One the first switch flip back tails on a full size ledge
Probably first back noseblunt trick on a full size ledge
Switch pop shuv nose grind on ledge before anyone else
This doesn't even include the fact he was one the first dudes to really start stepping to bigger rails at the time and being good at transition.
-
So many proper examples in this thread of why Fred Gall rules. Official Patron Saint or Slap. I’m hyped for this upcoming Bobshirt.

switch hubba assault and that gap out to 50-50 the rail at love park in EE3 just seals the deal
