Knowing when you're done is a seriously rare skill in skateboarding.
Being a pro skater is alcoholism, Heath had one drink, got up and paid his bill.
Todd Falcon did the same except he drank a little longer.
Jeremy Klein got up and left but he definitely shouldn't have been driving.
Everyone else has to be asked to leave by the bartender.

Where do Tony Hawk and Jereme Rogers fit into this?

Jereme left his keys inside but when he came back for them, everyone realized how wasted he was. 'Sorry and come back when you're sober.'
The Birdman? Birdman is quietly putting em down. He's never without a drink in front of him but he doesn't show his ass either.

Andy Roy lifted the bottle too fast and chipped his teeth.
Richie Jackson only drinks ultra rare microbrews from some mythical land.

..sitting here refreshing the Texas craigslist in hopes that I see that goddamn mini-ramp up for sale so that I can Falcon Plant that bitch in the comfort of my own garage.

We need to buy this for Cockfight. They lost the Mosquito Farm. This would be an epic start for the next DIY.

Being a pro skater is alcoholism, Heath had one drink, got up and paid his bill drank everyone under the fucking table, and slid out the side door.
Todd Falcon did the same except he drank a little longer. was not acknowledged by a single bartender or any other member of the staff, despite his thirst.
Jeremy Klein got up and left but he definitely shouldn't have been driving. beat up by a girl.  He deserved it.
Everyone else has to be asked to leave by the bartender. 

Plot twist, it's in a casino.  And it's about time they put some clocks up in that bitch.

I watched some of Todd's late 80s footage. He was actually ok at vert. There are some clips of him doing hideous early grabs from that era, but in the very late 80s he was perfectly capable of airing on vert ramps and doing handplants. Shit confused me. Wondering if a life-changing event happened to him. Kinda assuming he drank random chemicals in the garage during an early horror movie filming.

Skateboarding changed, almost overnight for a lot of people. Maybe he lost a step and never recovered? I dunno why it was so goddam hard to learn how to flatground ollie but have you ever seen that Gator footage of him trying to skate street? It's pretty brutal.
them cats are out getting mashed up to jungle, he's out mashing up jungle cats. it's just not gonna work.

He used to skate a lot at my local when I was a kid (Dex Skatepark in Texas). It was kind of embarassing. Although his like 6-7ft airs on mini ramp were cool.

Have you seen the episode of Rick McCranks show post radical when they visit Todd Falcon at home? It is a good one: http://fruithosts.net/f/cerpelpndqqmfqcm/post_radical_0106-yestv_mkv_mp4

My favorite post radical episode, though, is when Al tries to dog ollie the megaramp.
