One of the best/heaviest tour videos I've ever seen. Greco fucked some shit up!! Muska and Penny both did a lot of great stuff. And all the young dudes were great too, Neens bs heel wtf?!? Seeing the old dudes rip so hard made my day
-
greco, penny, muska, slow mo's..... loved it
plus spencer hamilton is fucking amazing
-
Greco was on a fucking mission.
-
after "talking" to him i can surely say that greco is a freaking nutcase, but goddamn he is on a mission right now.
-
Pennys no arm raise tre to fakie was sick.
-
There was so much good shit in that clip. The greco footage from the last 12 months has been a blessing to skateboarding, true boss status.
-
Really impressed by everybody, the young guys Nick Tucker and Pat Rumney are coming strong too!
-
Greco fucking kills it lately!
-
How do Penny and Muska still have pro spots on the team? Milking it.

If I was a new guy and got to go on tour with fucking Tom Penny I'd feel so blessed, Supra has a great team.
-
Geez I really hope youre fucking kidding about Penny/Muska
-
that has to be the shit- puttin it down with all these legends around! motivation for days and it shows in these supra clips!
-
great clip. im really impressed with the stuff greco was doing. spencer, rumney, neen, and romar had some really stand out stuff too. im starting to like nick tucker, but i just cant fuck with those nollie front foot flips. that switch inward heel he did down that double set made up for them though. romars nollie back 180 over that gap, that was ridiculous.
ive always wanted a full length from supra. their lineup cant be fucked with.
-
That was awesome. And as ugly as it looks, Penny's no pop tres are sick!

I know this is an unpopular opinion to have on SLAP. However, I cannot see why these two somehow deserve pro careers. Sure, they killed it 20 years ago. But they are no longer relevant at all in skateboarding. All the footage (which isn't much) that they have put out recently is garbage. There are so many rippers out there who kill it but can't move beyond flow status and these guys sit and around and collect checks because they put out some good video parts years ago.

Really? I feel Skateboarding has a such a large population that covers such vast age groups that making a statement like that truly shows how discontented you are to this. You may get excited about a guy like Nick Tucker but for me Penny and Muska name in the line up made me want to click on the video, and I'm down for the skating they did. Those Flow guys you speak of its not the old guys in there way its the fact that there is so many amazing young skaters out there and who gets "put on" is all who can be marketed and bring something different to the table. Penny and Muska were key to the making of Supra and have some ownership over the company from what i hear so they will get paid skating or not skating...i think they chose to skate cause they can and still love it.

I don't think you understand the concept of loyalty, friendship, or respect. I figured a "thug" would understand this sort of thing.

just because theyre not ripping as hard as johnny flowboy doesnt take away from the fact that both of those guys are beyond legend status. a tour isnt just about getting the sickest tricks, its about going to demos, signings, meeting the kids, and all that stuff. the younger kids who come to a supra demo might only be there for kevin romar and nick tucker, but anyone who was skating at the time when penny and muska were in their prime i bet you are beyond psyched just to see those guys in person. maybe this is just my own opinion, but id be probably just as psyched to shake hands with muska and penny as i would be to watch those new guys skate a stairset at my local park.
i agree that there is a point in a pro skaters career when they should step down and let the new dudes shine, but there is a small group of dudes who still deserve all the coverage and attention theyre getting, muska and penny included. its about showing respect where its due.

greco putting it down!
pat and neen came through too!

I think skating is just not like say the NBA. It's not like if you suck that you have to retire right away. You can have a board out just cause you know people love that skater and want to support them. Skating is more relevance in the way of being known or out there...not just skill. We all know there are tons of kids that are better but who the fuck would want to buy a board with their names on it.
-
Pat Rumney has a very similar style to Lizard...looks more like a human being though.

I absolutely disagree...
Do you have ANY clue about skating? Penny's US take over was unseen. He did stuff (with great style I may add) pros back then were dreaming about.Those dudes were next level in the 90's. They paved the way for the flow kids you're talking about...
Skateboarding is hard, and it only gets harder when you get older. And living from skateboarding is hard as well...
Seeing greco, penny and muska rip made my day. Sure muska is extravagant and weird, but he has charm and gets people hyped. And he is always knee deep in skating. Always on top with the sneaker game ( not my taste ) but still...
Saying that they're not relevant is the same as saying that gonz, rodney, hawk,... Shouldnt be pro anymore either. Or that anthony hopkins and jeff bridges should retire because some young actors are coming up...
If you want people to retire, send a hanwritten letter to daniel castillo...

It may not be a popular opinion on SLAP....But I'm guessing it is a popular opinion on your favorite skatepark ledge to sit on.

Greco really put the hammer down holy shit. spencer hamilton is sick as fuck too. funny keelan dadds tricks could be counted on 1 hand. fromars nollie back 180 was nuts. pennys tre to fakie was 100% steezy. nick tucker does his tricks how everyone under the age of 18 wants to do them.
-
Great video. The supra trips always seem to be a good time all the guys get along very well and they all push each other to skate. they seem to have much more camaraderie then your typical shoe team. seeing Kevin romar make a beat with TK and having him rap on it in the hotel room is some straight up homie shit. the skating was obviously dope as well.
shoutout to the idiot in here claiming that the pro with the number one selling shoe on supra is "milking it".

Well there certainly is a few old pros that should just retire, but you're fuckin talking about Tom Penny and Chad Muska here! two dudes that belong in the highest ranks of the legend status. There's maybe 10 guys at most in their league. Both of their names sell more shit alone, than the whole rest of the team put together. It's true that theres lots of ripping dudes everywhere, but there's also a whole lot of new ams and pros. It's not like it would be impossible to break through. Not everybody is supposed to have a career in skating. If you can't make your skating stand up from the others, then it's your fault.

While I may not be the biggest fan of Muska, I completely disagree with you. Contrary to what you believe, they deserve to be paid for "milking it" for the rest of their lives based solely on the fact that they were among the few that laid the foreground for what we do today.
Fuck you, kid.

Romar's Nollie 180 was ludicrous
Someone gif that shit

Skateboarding is funny like that. Mu$ka's skytop is like one of the most popular models of shoes right now, but really how many people that wear those shoes knows who he is and what shortys was. The correlation of ability to skate and shoe sales is only strong amongst skateboarders kind of.weird to think about people that step into zumiez and just buy the shoe. how often do sneakerheads end up watching youtube skate clips cause they like their shoes. Do pros like Janoski and Muska feel obligated to keep skating to keep their pro name attached to a shoe. I guess some pros whose shoe model has outlived their career is like the DVS Gavin or Sal 23
then again muska is etching a name for himself outside of skateboarding. Paris hilton coverage goes harder than any thrasher probably
i typed this train of thought I had going. gonna post it anyway srry

that was a different tom penny than i've seen in a long time and it made me really, really happy.
greco footage is inspiring again.
rumney's the man.
neen's bs heelflip was fucked.
muska on hype is awesome.
tk and romar = best bromance in skateboarding?

Dude is definitely not milking it in the shoe design/DJing/art game. As far as skateboarding goes, he shouldn't have to film anything else for the rest of his life. just seeing him try that 5050 made my day.

Lol Slap wants to swallow Pennys balls and gargle his man juice soooo bad.

Nah that was DJ Gaudin. Pat Rumneys a dude from Long Island, NY that made it to cali and became hooked up on deathwish. Hes killing it.

romar fell asleep nollie bs 180 off a 20 foot gap over a set and woke up just in time to land clean
-
i wonder if greco can bs 360 ???
-
holy shit that was heavy. so much good stuff. the supra tour videos are always nuts.
Javier was murking it. so happy to see him hooked. everybody had sick stuff. i watched that nollie 180 probably 15 times.
-
What I've heard, Muska was already hurt when he went on this trip and he got pretty fucked up in his knee or ankle after the 50-50 bail and still manage to be the most positive dude on trip.
How the fuck can you hate on that?
-
That noseslide made me happy:-)

if anyones milking anything its TK

I agree with you. If what people are saying about Muska & Penny's shoes being "top sellers" is true then it is most likely because of the way they look, not any association with a particular pro.

video was sick

Supra's team is pretty large. The brand stays alive the more Muska/Penny shoes they sell, and that translates into supporting more riders.
They're not milkin' it. Muska owns part of the company and Penny isn't milking anything...they're on tour, don't see a lot of guys their age on tour. Plus they still back Greco, who is old too but is obviously still putting some great skating out there to those of us who care.
Lastly someone said skating appeals to people of all ages nowadays...that couldn't be more true than ever before. I grew up watching Penny skate when he first came on the scene and so now I still get stoked to watch his clips even if though they are pretty chill. That means I end up buying more skate shit. It helps grow the industry dollar pie and everyone benefits. When the economic sea rises every boat does too.

did nobody else pick up on TK saying that Greco did a switch "dorkslide"?

I heard it too. I actually like that trick name better. Goinna have to adopt that one.

ain't no party like a muska party

that was by far their best tour video yet. i cant believe how good greco was skating. that switch darkslide was 100 x better then the one in his deathwish part, damn. was that rumney with the fs blunt kickflip out?

Yea, and from what I heard, he also did it down the hollywood 12 and those dudes are holding onto the footage

If only their shoes were as good as their tour videos.
This, was a damn good watch, good to see such an eclectic team killing it family style.

How has nobody brought up Ellington? One of my all time favs but not a single clip in the vid??? C'mon man!
He also didn't even attempt a single trick at the sham of a Baker demo I witnessed in June.
Don't know if he's hurt or what but no excuse when Muska is out there throwing down

He was hurt for the last 6 months of the dethwish filming, and I guess still is then. Must be some pretty bad thing if you can't skate for like a year already

Not the biggest Greco fan but I've gained a some kind of new respect for him after watching this video and also have the urge to throw my carcass down something large

Amen, I actually enjoy his skating and am not so quick to call anyone out on "milking it" but he is the epitome of that shit right now, the nigga is completely able bodied and I didn't even know he was on the tour until his veiny scalped self popped up on the screen and even then he only had like 2 tricks!
You got fucking keelan dadd and all his nonsense in building his brand at least busting out some footy even if it is random flatground in his chick's apartment on insta but TK ain't been doing shittt so what has his time been going towards?
And as for the legends performances on this tour...
Penny- the fs flip under the bridge was beyond words, definitely reminiscent of classic tom penny
Muska- true embodiment of skating, the dude goes on tour while already having much success in other areas but has a place in his heart to show love, is already hurt, is HEAVY in the legend game and still ain't afraid to go for the hammers, that's some OG behavior right there
Greco- no words for his entire attack on everything this year, Guy got fucked over on SOTY last year, I ain't trying to see that happen twice in a row for the big homey

AND shouts to javi on getting back in the game! It's been too long! #MNIMN! Fuck Jimmey Kimmel!
