He touches on something at the end. Currently Ben left. Jaws got hurt and hangs in AZ, clint is in OKC and It does't seem like any of the California people skate together. Team in name only isn't as fun

KOTR era birdhouse was great. They seemed really tight at that time.

i think that i mixed this dude up with Clint Walker for a really long time due to the name similarity/Birdhouse connection and only recently have realized that he's a different guy and is actually pretty cool and has sick style and not fuckin wack like Clint lol it was really cool to see him skate handrails with such immense ease in this, clearly just entirely unphased by the idea of skating them. seems like a down to earth, genuine dude. hope he gets his due in the industry

I liked this. Sad to hear the context around what the death of Mike Davis did to Birdhouse. Hope things work out for Clive.

I think it was Ric Leonetti that really tore that team apart

He’s way sicker than expected as a person but I feel like he’s never getting a legit board sponsor again. I get why he left birdhouse but I feel like he approached it wrong . Should’ve came to Tony with a rebuild plan where they kick off jaws and Clint and build up again around him and Shawn hale.

You're not gonna rebuild a team with a guy in his mid 30's, who works a full time job.


Seems like Clive just missed the team camaraderie that was on display for for KOTR & for the filming of Saturdays.

Can't remember the last time learning more about a pro skater actually made me like them more.
Dude goes hard, has a great kickflip and seems pretty down to earth. Hope he lands somewhere good.

He put on some weight; looks like a tank.

Seems like a cool dude. Definitely deserving of a solid board sponsor, something better than Birdhouse at least. I don’t know if it’ll happen given the nature of his departure, plus he seems to keep himself and doesn’t really seem to be looking for one right now. Still, I’m looking forward to another part.

Fuck it, get him on Limousine. He can skate NYC rails with Cyrus.

Weird idea maybe, and there's already way to many people on both teams. But Clive is a real talent and it would be interesting to see him on Real or Primitive

Clive back on 5boro and being a new york skater would be so sick

I like Clive. I think he really got shafted from the industry for no reason. Birdhouse seems to be a death sentence to the riders

I didn‘t think Clive was a jock from King of the Road. I thought he was a jock when he screamed to his bros before trying and landing a massive crooked grind and then celebrating in a big bro down with Clint Walker. That was in a video called “Saturdays“. I also thought the whole team was pretty jocky when they did keg stands in the Deepend of the bowl at the end of a demo at my local park. They did try to dry the bowl after, though. Cleaning up afterwards wasn‘t very jocky.

Clive does comes across as a nice guy in interviews.

This interview was like the pals questions interview with Mason, where I went in thinkin I didn't really care for them, they felt jocky and bland, then realise they're actually just chill af. It's true that the world of pro skaters is a personality cult, and I've been converted.

Someone give this man a board.

I thought the same thing too.

Also thought Madness.

Poor guy will probably end up on Powell.

Can somebody eli5 why you all don’t think he’ll get on another board brand? As far as I can tell he’s had a few big time parts with huge hammers over the past couple years and still seems productive. Also seems to have a good head on his shoulders so I don’t feel like he’s alienating anybody with his  personality or life choices.

I’m not on social media so if he’s wack there then I’ve totally missed it.

first, he looks strong and he looks healthy, which is good to see

second, good to see that he's still ripping and looks as comfortable on his board as he always has--who the fuck looks at that first rail right up against the wall and thinks smith grind?

hope he ends up on a solid squad--good on Jenkem for doing videos like this...
