Resse Nine Club

[Shifty Flip]

Tate slipping.  Super Stoked to listen. Seeing Resse rip it on my first trip to Pulaski in the very early nineties was amazing. First time I saw someone skate street like a man, if that makes any sense, not just fisseling at 1 mph.

like watching bobby do an 8 foot long back smith there.  it's one thing to see it in the video, but in real life and knowing how those ledges skate.. it's unreal

[SonictheHedgehog]

No mention of skating Reebok Classics?

Same as it ever was

[Fongstarr.]

Going to be weird seeing Reese at the Supreme store when it opens in SF. Asking a legend if they have additional sizes in the back.

[Jehoshaphat Augustus]

Fuck yeah Resse

[cricketclub]

So glad Reese is on. I wish that Crob, Rog, and Kelly would get some help coming up with deeper questions to help guide the conversation. They should contract Monkey_Mcpott. His Lance Dawes Pals questions in particular were so good. TNC could use some more in-depth questioning that shows some preparation like that.

Still enjoyable for sure.

Ha! Yeah that’s never happening for sure.

Watched it and thought it was ok. Was really stoked when I saw the name but the interview was all over the place. There were some slow points for sure and some good stories as well. At this point I don’t think it’s necessary to keep bringing up nothing but the truth, I think everyone can agree it sucked and none of the riders had control over it. Just seems repetitive every time it comes up because it’s always the same response.

Also geez is Reese handsome

You have Kelly Hart's address now, at least.

From what I've seen of SF's homeless problem, I can't imagine the mix of derelicts, rich kids, and store security that's going to happen. Seems like it's going to be chaotic.

Man Reese is going to make a good living from that store. Ryan Hickey was making 60-70K a year working at the OG store back in the day, so Reese will doubtlessly be living large. Nice guy as well, he complimented the Stacks boards I have in my collection.

[Lukabrazi]

reese's sense of humor has been one of the best on the show. great stuff

Agreed MM. I wanted to be really stoked on this but it was disappointing. I like CROB, for the most part, but he's not good enough at the craft or a big enough presence to interview someone like Reese Forbes. And specifically for this episode it doesn't help that he's not much of a skate historian. There was so much left on the table, or not talked about at all. Instead it was the same formulaic nonsense and shit that has been covered ad nauseam over the last decade plus. Just pure laziness. When you get a guest like Reese you should be better prepared.

And yes, not for nothing he is a very handsome man.

[BallDontLie]

One of the best.


I loved that short Jordan Richter story..

But yeah Reese carried that pretty much by himself. It feels like there could’ve been more substance, but still enjoyable.

Speaking of, Kenny Hughes should get one.

[hip bruise]

wow supreme store manager, bleak.

[Kombuch-A-Holic]

When I saw Reese was going to be on this morning I was super excited.  That didn't last very long. I've never been one to bash the show but this has got to be the worst episode ever. Crob needs to stay on track. Kelly was the only one trying to stay on track It seemed. Roger seemed like he didn't know shit about him. Pretty bummed on the interview. Same thing with Sammy last week. Step it up Chris don't get lazy now.

[hadouken]

This one was a struggle - when the guest is awkward or reticent to be verbose the whole thing just grinds to a halt. Crob can play at being Stern but he's not even close to being a good interviewer.

It's a shame, this could have been great but the lack of skills behind it let it down.

[MexicanSpaniard]

was alright, the Reese staying the night I'd like an update on, he should have gone to crobs and made him sleep on his couch while he took the bed

[lamfordie]

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode more than I expected. Reese is a funny ass dude.

I completely agree but crob has seemed to do alittle more research in recent episodes atleast knowing board company switches etc. I felt like Reese curbed it a lot w his humor (which I loved, but it cut a lot of stories short) by saying a quick answer and following up with “are we done?” Or “what else do you wanna talk about?”. Rogers the skate historian and Roberts is the funny guy to me, Roger just doesn’t speak up enough and when he does it’s very brief and often talked over.

Also I completely agree with the beating a dead horse w nothing but the truth monkey mcpott. The skating rules. The skits suck. We’re all watching on a dvd or computer you can just skip them, it’s not like we have to get up and hold down the fast forward button on the vcr anymore

I still love the nine club. It’s great content and these dudes clearly put a lot of work into it. As someone who drives for a living i’ll take everything skate related I can get

ya, no. in this economy? 100K a year is incredible, especially as a family man

[i used to skate]

Crob actually did do some research for this one, watching the tour vid they did together. But his only takeaway was the appearance of his own beard

I like Crob and the show, but this one wasn’t very interesting

He's referencing an interview last year about how the manager at Supreme New York was making about 100k a year (might have been in Jenkem, not sure). He was making that way before 2011-2012 when Supremes popularity blew up.

Keep in mind Supreme is a billion dollar company with a pretty small staff (im guessing less than 500 worldwide) so I'm sure being involved with them is decent money.

[Luddite]

Loved the Cameo/Darkstar diss

[huggs]

What the fuck are you talking about?

i'm talking the salary of someone who manages a massively successful streetwear store – in SF of all places. you think he's making 15/hr?

what are the fuck are you talking about

[childhood]

Yeah surprisingly insubstantial episode.
I made it all the way to the end, but it still seemed like they didn't really discuss anything.

Reese has been conventionally attractive forever, maybe he's just like a vacuous good looking dude who never had to develop much depth.

This part still kicks ass though:

The ya, no.  Which is it?  Didn't know your source for that magic number, but it was touched on above.  100k, is far from incredible in SF/Marin.

But the major point: Bleak -  charmless and inhospitable; dreary.

My interpretation had nothing to do with financial compensation.  Managing a Supreme store sound like one of the biggest, most soul sucking jobs I can imagine.  The clientele, the location (his commute), the future.  You think he'll be running that with all the fresh kids when he is 50?  That's not that long from now.  I imagine burnout comes in under 30 months. 

[fongool]

it's all about this part:

[Fongstarr.]

I hate to agree but $100K in SF/Marine is not that great. Hopefully he bought a home when the market is down or has good rent but doubt there is rent control in Marine. I mean $100K for retail is definitely fine but he's just living in the wrong city with that kind of salary.

Couple of really nice flat ground 360 flips in this. He's got a real good style
