Why do I swear he was already on? Was he on the nine club?
He talks about gas giants and taking a private plane with some Australians in France or something?

was thinking this also

[Gleefull508]

Ish interview was okay, kinda boring but he seems like a nice guy. The reason he calls his brand gas giants had my laughing tho hahaha. That's almost more fried than if it was named after weed.

I haven’t listened to his episode yet but I remember him saying elsewhere it’s because he’s actually interested in space, right?

Maybe this is better for the unpopular opinions of 2024 thread but until the Nine Club I honestly don't think anyone really cared about Jeron's skating all that much. He was always good and had clips in videos, but it's not like people were waiting for a Jeron part like they would for other skaters that came up in the same period. He always struck me as a better version of Daniel Castillo in that regard. You never went to a shop hoping you could get the new Jeron deck or something. Now that we see the human side of him we elevate his footage way more than we would have in the past.

[Nosferatu]

How old are you? That may have something to do with it. I am 35 so started skating after some of his prime in the 90s but I was still stoked for his footage.

[shouldn't]

what’s interesting to me is that he always brings up being bummed that he didn’t have a full part in yeah right but, the shared part with rick/tony with the death in vegas song is perfect to me. i grew up watching that part and wouldn’t change anything about it.

[Troubadour26]

The Ish interview is awesome. They had good chemistry. Def made me a fan of him.

I feel like this was the same way for Chico. When he started riding shapes boards and posting on Instagram a lot, it really raised his profile. Before that, he was kind of a bench warmer for chocolate. I’m not saying he wasn’t talented, but he was never looked at in the same realm as Kenny/mj/keenan/gino/sj. I think people are more stoked that he was killing it so hard well into his 40’s

He had a pretty big cool guy profile in the 90s

Jeron came out really strong in the early 90s, that intro line in the Plan B friends section may seem like nothing now but we were like woah this little kid is super good and consistent, his output in that era was pretty nutty too, the friend section ,he had an FTC part (first video part with an r&B song) he had a 411 check out and full parts in all the early crailgap videos, I think Jeron was just overshadowed by being on a team that big with Koston, Mariana, Carroll, Howard and everyone else. He's a person that would be a bigger deal had he been on a smaller team, seems like he's totally cool with where he landed so it doesn't matter. Jeron from 93-97ish was a huge deal, dude did a switch varial heel flip over an LA table  and switch nose grind 180 on a handrail.

[CarcassToss]

He wasn't bad, but you can't say that was huge compared to most things his teammates or that the frequency of his footage was huge.

I think he’s always been liked for being a smooth operator and cool character - give me my money Chico is an iconic video based around his antics - but yea recently he has been getting his flowers which he definitely deserves he’s been pro for what 25 years at least

Not for nothing my buddy just worked with yuto on something and they literally got sushi after. He did say he was super chill though , I think he might just be a very surface level person.

I do think it comes down to age - cause the points you made about being overshadowed is my experience having started skating around 2000 and really getting into the culture around 03 . Girl and chocolate to me was Koston and Howard and carrol and like Marc Johnson and then the ams with P.rod and Eldridge. The rest of crailtap at the time was basically old boring dudes to me cause it was all the 90s dudes who were still on but about quit like mulder and Gavin-  jeron and Chico got firmly lumped into that category for me.

 Also we didn’t have YouTube for another few years so you didn’t have easy access to go back and see how hard all these dudes ripped cause it’s not like a copy of 90s vids were readily available to a ten year old 2 hours from a decent skate shop.

Very hyped on them trying to pressure Cehpas into singing The Hours by Beach House

I think that Jeron had first part in the bLind section of Virtual Reality, FTC Finally, Goldfish, Mouse, and the Girl section in Las Nueve Vidas De Paco all for a reason. From 93-97 he was killing it. After that I think he was much more low key but 4 years is not a bad run at all. Plus he had some standout clips in the Yeah Right montage. The manual to fs flip out at USC, the two switch tricks over the grate at Flushing Meadows, and the switch 360 flip off the propped up tile over the can were lovely.

[Allen.]

Manual to frontside flip seems absolutely impossible. Always liked his Skate More part too, pretty sure when I was on the All My Skate Videos pod we all agreed Jeron’s part was one of the better aging parts.

[planman]

Man I am so fucking tired of non-answers in the rapid fire. I understand having an ongoing career and not trying to ruffle feathers in the industry but Jesus fucking christ at least throw out a softball answer like Monsanto for worst company or name one that doesn't exist anymore? You're telling me you can't say "posers" for worst style or some shit??? I hate it when people are like "bad vibes" or "cops" for last person on the sesh but at least it's a fucking answer goddamn. I'm never one to complain about things being too soft bc that's venturing into old man yells at cloud territory but it honestly has felt soft as baby shit lately.

Sorry for the rant, Ish interview was good otherwise aside from feeling too short, he seems like a really funny guy and I wish they got more out of him.

Gonna listen to the rest of the episode now.

EDIT: Cephas going "I can hear you from the other room bitch nigga" is one of the funniest things he's ever said on the pod oh my fucking GOD

[BeAWitness]

This was only random skater i’ve got right so far. Lizard tattoo was a dead giveaway if you’ve seen the Epicly Laterd

mmmm idk about this one, man. Chico has been a style god long before his posts on IG let a bunch of newer kids know what time it is. Calling him a “bench warmer” is kinda wild. Remember too that ads and photos in magazines were a huge thing back then. They may not have had a ton of footage comparatively but back in the 90’s/ealy 2ks you’d see their names all over the place 

[j....soy.....]

I can see it if your first skate video was ‘yeah right’….also there were a lot less vids and naturally a lot of people grew to appreciate the lower key skaters….

[cornman]

I have a feeling that Atiba is going to be an episode, if not the finale of this season given the Vans, sports, and past guest connections. Also probably has crazy podcast ass stories.

ave called out dollin pretty good and patrick prahan went hard on berra. I know that almost seems like a cop out but he really aired him out

[backside_frontside]

Gotta say hard agree on the overuse of cop-out answers or straight up refusal to come up with anything. Beyond milquetoast. Jeron was the worst with his answer to worst style. “Man, there’s a lot of bad styles out there but I’m too nice to say who man…” such a bullshit response.

[Sick Duck]

I agree too but i think to really get those hard hitting roasts they need some bitter ex pros who don’t care one bit about the industry or which skaters they offend. Now that the bunt is pretty big time they’re getting more high profile guests. This season has been great tho, putting the clips in adds a lot to it
