"Julien !!"
this vid was for sale at my local for years and years. one day the owner just gave it to me. me and the homies would watched it over and over, and this was in like 06. the wall ride section is so good! made me love skating in a different way. it was so much different than anything going on at the time i watched it.
this is cool to hear--the wallride section definitely lit a fire under our asses as youngsters, but i also went out and learned hurricanes because of this too...i was 17 when it came out, and it was important for the street skating more than anything to us. i think that Julien Stranger's front board on that Mission rail is one of the most iconic front-boards ever. in fact, i had an aqua-colored Thasher tshirt with that on it, that i wore out. i fucking love this shit right here too...
lots of sick music (and bad music too), and although the narration is pretty corny in places (it's the late 1980s dudes), there's also some classic foolishness--my friends and i (funny to say, including Joe Brook) and around the shop i helped run at the time, we used to walk around in a high, shaky voice saying "we're everywhere...look at every wall...there are wheel marks everywhere...all over the world everyone does railings...grind every curb...skate 'til you die," from that segment towards the end with Danny Sargent--who was a peer in the new generation...
