"we would chain all that shit together because it would get stolen, or somebody would do something better than you did."

Taking a bench, then claiming it as your own, bringing it spots, for only you to skate it, is wack.

Great content! Skateboarding can be hilarious sometimes. If you tried to tell someone "yeah I got this huge metal bench I stole from a park in my garage, because other skateboarders will try to steal it to themselves if I leave it somewhere", they'd probably think you are losing your marbles.

For real. Kosta doesn’t even have to try, and QS has been the shit since it was called 50-50Skateboarding or whatever. Whereas jenkem is the most tryhard shit of all time.

This was sick. If you have a problem with dude locking up something like that at a popular foundation spot, in the middle of downtown LA for that matter, you probably have never had something stolen or destroyed at a foundation spot (once it’s blown out that is.).... I get it.

Still waiting for the 2 page ad introducing guy to FA and Freddy to hockey. Or Vice versa. What in the fuck could y’all possibly be waiting for, I know someone over there is reading this.

Heard bits of this story here and there throughout the years. I can't believe I watched and enjoyed a 10-minute interview about a bench that was stolen, lost, found, lost, rebuilt, and found again, all so a grown man could slide his wheelieboard on across it.

If this was anyone but AVE people would be talking about how wack it is. Idc either way, but keep the same energy.

The dedication to one bench is hilarious though. Moving it, finding it after 13+ years, building a new one, getting the second one AND the rebuilt one. I want to skate this bench now

It'd be around $600 on the low end to build this bench, its just a little more than 20ft of rectangular tube and square tube welded up. Metal prices have doubled, going to triple in July allegedly too. I bet they paid close to a grand though

Thanks for doing the math!

I love skateboarding and the community but we know instinctively that leaving a box or rail out is bound to get stolen by none other than fellow skateboarders. And this is why we cant have nice things.

Ain’t this the truth. I had a fucking quarterpipe stolen from my driveway. The first skate obstacle I made with my dad. Really fucked up my perception of “fellow skaters” from a very young age.

Skateboarders are their own biggest enemies sometimes.

Yeah that's what I meant, while what AVE did could be seen as wack at least they were using it regularly. Hence it's even more wack to take it and leave it at your mom's house for 15 years, I mean surely word got around enough to know AVE was still wanting it years later, even people on here seemed to know.

But they didn't go through with the replica. And even if they did, it's not like that would have made it  any easier to skate. And even if it WAS easier to skate, we're talking a single clip compared to multiple parts of stock tricks from a guy who had private training facilities for the majority of his career.

Holy shit, this is seriously the kind of thing I can't get enough of these days, not least because it showed pretty much all of AVE's Dancing on Thin Ice Part in raw footage.  Also, as others have said, it's an interesting story and AVE does it justice.  I also thought he was a bit taciturn based on other things I've seen from him but he surprised me by what a lively and engaging storyteller he seems to be.

Well, It was pretty clear from the footage that AVE hat found and moved the bench, while berra did everything he could to disguise the fact that he had built the loading dock spot himself. Berra tried to lie to everyone.

This fact makes AVE‘s Clip cool and Berra‘s Clips in the DVS Video  pretty wack.

Marc Johnson had a bunch of tricks on a ledge he built himself in his epic Lakai part. Nobody complained because they also showed a short timelapse of him building the ledge. It was made transparent he was skating an „artificial“ ledge.

Well, It was pretty clear from the footage that AVE hat found and moved the bench, while berra did everything he could to disguise the fact that he had built the loading dock spot himself. Berra tried to lie to everyone.

This fact makes AVE‘s Clip cool and Berra‘s Clips in the DVS Video  pretty wack.

Marc Johnson had a bunch of tricks on a ledge he built himself in his epic Lakai part. Nobody complained because they also showed a short timelapse of him building the ledge. It was made transparent he was skating an „artificial“ ledge.

Absolutely agreed

I love videos and articles that show a skaters dedication and love for a specific spot/obstacle, makes guys like AVE doing tricks I could never dream of doing seem a lot more relatable, few outside of skateboarding would understand a relationship with an inanimate object like this

Stoked on the response to this. It was a lot of fun to work on.

To answer the question which has popped up a few times: the copy of the bench that AVE got built cost around 1,300 bucks and was pretty much spot on except it ended up being about foot longer.

The audio for this was about 20 minutes long so some stuff that wasn’t so important got cut in the name of concision, ha.

A part of the story was told to me years ago by Aaron Artis, he said he and Wes Lott took the bench and kept it at Wes's house, and at some point got stolen by another skater from a spot they left it at.
I believe Aaron is in the footage with the cops at the foundation spot.
I might be mis remembering our conversation but that's How my brain recalls it.

@Sweeps thank you for posting this video. It awesome to look back to that era and re-experience how sick Rob Dyrdek's skating was. He even made a fs halfcab heelflip look pretty nice. Ave is one of the all time greats and probably anything involving  his skating is a precious commodity/experience.
I wonder how come nobody ever sat him down and told Berra that he's not a talented thespian? He's almost painfully unappealing to watch in that regard. He's a rad skater but yikes. Or am I way off and people find him entertaining and charismatic?

The one AVE does in Berra's old park at 9:29 is perfect. The way he whips/fast wraps them and how they come right up leveled to his feet is that beautiful mix of aggression and precision.

Green Bench aside, I also talked to AVE for QS about where he feels his career is at post-40, the 'Mind Field' days, F.A. and his friendship with Greg Hunt.

"If you’re given a gift and you’re able to fully realize it, then you fucking did it.

Still, it doesn’t take away from me wanting — you know, “what’s my best now?” Like I said, this last video part was a lot of fun. It had its moments, but I enjoy a certain amount of suffering. Yet, there wasn’t that thing which drove me in the past either." – AVE on his career, post-Propeller.

Haven’t we been shitting on Bera for over a decade for essentially doing to same thing with the yellow flatbars?
[close]


A moveable street obstacle and a skatepark obstacle are very different things.
[close]

Is it though? His boy was making a replica of one so he could get a trick.
[close]


But they didn't go through with the replica. And even if they did, it's not like that would have made it  any easier to skate. And even if it WAS easier to skate, we're talking a single clip compared to multiple parts of stock tricks from a guy who had private training facilities for the majority of his career. I get your point but it's a huge reach to say both things are the same.

Wait but they did ?? He says in the video that now he has two of the fuckin things. So while he did film his ender on the original, he still followed through with making the new one too.

Taking a bench, then claiming it as your own, bringing it spots, for only you to skate it, is wack.

Haha - about time.
To be honest I was trying to build a replica for
my local skatehall/dojo - but it was kind of pricy to bend the square profiles and if you do it in the OG size it’s pretty heavy and not handy enough to move around in our place.

Then and only then will we know that the United States has truly healed. It would honestly be a really cool community moment if all 4 were reunited and someone grinded all four in a single grind.

Oh wow though, I had no idea there were 4. Any info on the other two?

There's also the recreation AVE had commissioned. So that's 4 + an imposter bench? Or is the recreation included in that count?

There’s three: two OG and one replica.

First bench (as seen in The DC Video) is lost. It went from Santa Ana, to that LA spot from DC Vid, to Tosh Townend’s boys, to some dude’s garage for 15 years, to AVE for some of the footage in ‘Dancing On Thin Ice’ (everything sans the switch back noseblunt, I believe) until it was taken away by maintenance in the carpark he was skating it.

Second bench (the FA/Thin Ice/Noseblunt bench) went from Santa Ana, then it wound up in Tony Tave’s parents backyard, went to AVE for the sw noseblunt, to Tompkins for the opening of the FA and then got jacked and taken to Philly.

Third bench is the replica and that’s the one at the skatepark in HB.
