Hey y'all. 19yr old here. I'm a youngin and my knowledge of skateboarding is limited, so I want to know what video parts are classic and a must-watch. Baker 3 and Yeah Right! are probably my favorite videos and to me, they are very important and influential in skateboarding.

There’s a lot!
Jon Allie in Zero Dying to Live came out around when you were born, and that ushered in an era of people flipping into rail tricks like never before.
Mike Carroll - modus operandi, one of the best lines ever in this.
Elissa Steamer - welcome to hell. Put women ripping street on the map
-
for my generation (born in 90s):
mike mo - fully flared (and MJ)
supreme cherry
dime videos
theres a ton more but those 3 had the biggest impact in my circles, mike mo being a marketable internet friendly guy without needing to chomp handrails that showed how good the kids are getting - got a lot of people into skating lifestyle
cherry for showing how modern videos and brands dont need to be ty evans squeaky clean and theres still room for creativity in skate videos (but this style is now overdone). also cemented skating influence on street fashion
dime for showing that were still playing with a child's toy and we shouldnt take it too seriously and focus on what made skating fun in the first place: using skating as a way to joke and have fun with friends
you all can disagree, just my experience for 2005-2015
-
Look up all Tom Penny footy from the 90s, for starters.
-
Pig Wood - Slaughterhouse
-
Eastern Exposure 3 put the East Coast on the map.
-
Jerry Hsu - Bag of Suck
-
Eastern Exposure 3 put the East Coast on the map.
This an the FTC video, Mouse, welcome to hell and Trilogy are my favorite videos. Timecode could also be part of that list for me.
Ricky Oyola's part in ee3 is perhaps my favorite par ever. Then these parts come in just after that. Lennie Kirk in Timecode, Guy in Mouse, Lavar in Trillogy, HUF in FTC.
This is just my personal list. People can disagree. Peace out 8)
-
Arto - sorry
Appleyard - sorry and really sorry
Dill - photosynthesis
Cliche Bon appetite - all of it
Brian Anderson - yeah right
Shane - Shane Goes
Harold Hunter - mixtape
Reynolds - the end
Menikmati -- whole vid
The reason -- whole vid
Chris cole - ride rhe sky
Jamie thomas - welcome to hell
Dylan Footage
Ronnie Creager super part
Daewon - skate more
-
Pj Ladd - WHL
Mike Mo - Fully Flared
Smolik - Fulfill the deam
Koston - Menikmati
-
Arto Saari in Flip “Sorry” is definitely one of the most influential parts (in an extremely important and influential video). That was one of the videos that I remember people checking with the skateshops waiting for them to get copies of when I was younger. Definitely highly anticipated.
From more of a skating that I’m personally a fan of perspective, I think Anthony Pappalardo in “Fully Flared” really stood out in stark contrast obviously to a lot of the other skating in the video and kind of set the tone for the direction of skating to come. In an era where everyone was doing the most technical tech and the biggest gnarly big skating he kind of just simplified things and did good looking tricks at cool spots and did his own thing. It helped in setting the tone for the style-over-outrageousness vibes that a lot of people like watching today.

I would recommend approaching this the same way that people study art or film history.
1.) Start with the most recent major piece:
We will use 2018’s Blessed for this exercise, but you can argue that one of the earlier Primitive or GX1000 vids is more influential to today’s skating. Watching Blessed is just easier for this.
2.) Look at the recent pieces that directly influenced step 1
Blessed is a sequel to 2014’s Cherry and an homage to the late Dylan Reider, so you should check out:
- Cherry
- Gravis ‘Dylan’
- Cinematographer Project
- Mindfield
- A Time to Shine
If you chose to rewatch blessed after this, you’ll notice a lot of references.
3.) Then you start looking at the earliest major piece from that genre
- I would recommend starting with 1991’s Video days, because that’s when you start seeing a lot of modern editing choices (and you see a young Gonz in contrast to what you saw in the supreme and tws videos), but if you want to go earlier than that you should start with 1987’s Animal Chin
4.) Look at all the major stuff in chronological order until you return to the starting point
Most of which has already been listed
-
Seems like guy Mariano’s part in video days inspired a whole generation of current pros.
-
How did no one mention Reynold’s Stay Gold part. When that part dropped it left people speechless. I straight up had goosebumps watching it. The varial heel. The kickflip. Everything
-
All you need is Jim Greco's part in Baker2G
-
Look up all Tom Penny footy from the 90s, for starters.
this af. was chilling with a homie i met at the skate park last week or so when he tells me tom penny is his favorite skater. i looked him up i realized right away that my homie was straight up ripping off his steez, he even dresses like penny. never heard of the guy until then now i see him everywhere in skateboarding and his steez is so often copied.

If we are talking influential, Video Days and Questionable. Specifically Gonz in Video Days, and Duffy in Questionable for rail skating. Those are monumental in how they changed things, but the whole on a whole videos were massively impactful.
I'd put up Koston's Menikmati for what it meant for tech rail skating. Of more recent parts, I think Suciu-Cross Continental was very influential for shaping what came after it. While I'm not a fan of the style, its pretty obvious for a ton of recent parts what Cherry did to HD filming.

We are talking inluential tho.

I don't suspect anyone's going to mention this one any time soon and so I'll do it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixwY_cSbhqc
I think it's a great and accessible entry point to start developing interest in earlier SF skating from that point on (FTC, Adrenalin, Forties, the first Stereo vids, etc.). Not limited to, but in particular.

And yeah JJ Mindfield is pretty up there.
Dylans gravis part obviously.

This is a very good list. Perhaps something that should be mandatory for kids that really wants to understand skateboard history, to watch these at least.

The beauty of skating is that any part can be influential or important to an individual.
But really, the answer is

Great list. Seven steps to heaven is a fun choice. That's my favorite Marc Johnson part by far. Jason Carney had a good part I liked when I was younger in it to. I always thought he looked like an washed up alcoholic in it, perhaps he was? I heard he could drink heavily. Donger is the shit and an unique skater.

never has a skate part been so emotional and powerful

Shit! Haha! Curb dogs! The video that was the complete polar opposite of “sick boys”
Speaking of influential “sick boys” that video did it for me back when it came out.

There's a lot of new ass parts posted in here, I feel so old, also someone needs to mention Heath Kirchart's legendary Sight Unseen and Koston in Menikmati.
-
All the early toy machines and zero vids, Flip sorry and really sorry, photosynthesis, yeah right. Great era.
Stay Gold and Mindfield are personal favourites also.
-
Koston mouse. No dramatic music just some chill not taking urself too seriously music edited to some beautiful skating by Koston. Also koston goldfish

Ignore everything else in this thread... there is only one video you need to watch
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fphPaXu9b08

Most of my favorite video parts (or videos) were mentioned, old and new (Gonz in Blind "Video Days", Brian Lotti in Planet Earth "Now 'n' Later", Pat Duffy in Plan B "Questionable", Henry Sanchez in Blind "Tim and Henry’s Pack of Lies", Fred Gall in Sub Zero "Real Life", Jim Greco in Baker "Baker2G", Jake Johnson in Alien Workshop "Mindfield," Dylan Rieder in Gravis "Dylan", etc.) were already listed, however, I’d like to add a couple:
Jeremy Klein in World Industries "Rubbish Heap"
Jason Lee in Blind "Video Days"
Ethan Fowler in Stereo "A Visual Sound"
Gino Ianucci in 101 "SNUFF”
Van Wastell in Krooked “Gnar Gnar”
Mike Anderson in Krooked "Naughty"
Kevin Rodriques in Polar “I Like It Here Inside My Mind…”
Bobby De Keyzer CONS “Purple”
Andrew Allen in Hockey "Hockey III"
Kevin Rodrigues in Supreme "Blessed" & FA/Hockey "Dancing on Thin Ice"
-
Most of Koston’s parts
Guy Mariano -Mouse
-
If you are into the polar videos (which in itself has been crazy influential), then I know the generation of Hjalte in Copenhagen was very much into Bobby Puleo in Static 2. It kind of showed a way of being minimalist, while still keeping everything very impressive and most of all beautiful.

I quite like this approach and I would like to add that TJ has spoken about Herman's influence on him as a young skater. So having a peak at Baker 3 and specifically his Stay Gold part ( the table lines) will tell you something about where TJ seems to be coming from.

Didn't see it mentioned yet: but Transworld's Sight Unseen (2001) is a super sick video. Another Greg Hunt & Jon Holland masterpiece.
Everyone has a good part: skaters: Cardiel, Henry Sanchez, Tosh Townend, Dustin Dollin, and Heath Kirchart shuts the curtains on us beautifully. But since you mentioned just video parts:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvqgS2a-Jbs&t=1s
Also you said your not very knowledgeable about skateboard history, watch a few OnVideo segments, or jump into the full movies. They are probably my favorite skateboarding histories...next to Epicly Later'd
