One time I saw an interview and Andy Anderson was wearing an ugly beanie instead of his helmet.

[close]

Doesn’t he wear those visor beanie/beret type things? Whatsup with Powell dudes and weird personalized headwear? Zach Doeling wears a hat with no bill now and they have another dude who’s been wearing the same greasy conductorcap for like a decade or something because he claims it has a backstory. They’re like a hodgepodge group of teens from an 80’s movie all pitted against a land developer wanting to shut down their skatepark to build a golf course.

Maybe that isn't just a movie but closer to reality than we might think?

NKA at the end of the movie while they’re celebrating and the land developer is being shoved into the back of a cop car “I knew you guys would do it, hey where’s Andy?” *Ricky Glaser pops up “Didn’t you know? Andy doesn’t even skate this park, he did it for us” (vaporwave music starts as the scene cuts to && silhouette freestyling on the Santa Monica beach) *roll credits

We need an nka switch flip at some point tho.

I thought I heard him say in some podcast that he wears one because back in the days he’s seen some Vancouver pool legend fall on his head and getting hurt bad.

Do any adults who don’t make money off him actually like &&? I can see lots of children thinking he’s rad, but grown ups?

I like him.

Every time I use the balance board I pretend that I’m living his happy Canadian childhood.

My mom would be all, “5 more minutes on the balance board, then you have to finish your journal…”

And I would be like, “sure thing, mom..do we have any more carrots?”

And then my dad would break the carrots up with his hands because he doesn’t like to use knives

I had some good times listening to Bobby Digital album, mostly all just getting high in my car. Agreed it is no OB4CL or Liquid Swords or Ironman but it's better than Golden Arms: Redemption. "Domestic Violence" alone is worth the price of admission.

I love this track

Deck's solo album Controlled Substance is also nice. But Inspectah is my fave.

This goes hard

[MrDuckey]

Andy Anderson was the last skater I binge watched before I quit skating. Take that as you will. Not a good guy for the industry

[Lou Strux]

Hamdy Hamsterson would never tell a fib about his safety cap!

[Bobbybanana]

I still don’t think it’s even a real helmet, maybe in the trenches in ww2 or something

Has anyone hit him up on insta?

[NoComply180]

The helmet clearly comes from him having to wear one as an infant because he’s touched in the head

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

I think it's entirely possible he grew up wearing a helmet as a child, and wanted to be a positive role model.....

I think it's only people who didn't learn switch. Like Tim Gavin. Now they support so kids can't get kicked of pro for not skating pro.

That's like my only important beef. Maybe he needs to work on the bloards money bumps some more? Put a switch flip button on it.

No joke I love his style really. He skates down the street like he's filming for police academy 1887. So fun. He's like a discount Baby Guy and Rudy pls a little Rocco. Did y'all know he was my favorite for a little while.

Was definitely based on interviews (some by haters)
We had the same haircut. He had a cute but first fakie roll. Don't even get me started on how HOT that boy was. What a lower half.
PET POTBELLY PIG!!! That photo of him on the benches with the pig was on my wall for lie a decade.

I was an sma kid. When I saw the logo for world I was all in. My childhood nickname besides Puke was either Pooh Bear Teddy or Boner Boy eventually jay rotten Scab and Scampbell. Aka crazy J. I forget what my cripping name was. I didn't actually wanna be down with the hood. I just wanted to get high shoot guns and skate.

I'm the man with a thousand nicknames all pretty rotten.

But yeah Pooh bear with his head stuck in the Honey jar was incredible to me. I even entered a contest to try and win one from Eastern Seabloards. That board had just come out. I was on an old varaflex pig with my Indy 4s and giant ass City Streets wheels. I'm pretty sure those was made by Tracker. I made it work.

I got second place in my division and I was PISSED AF. I NEEDED that bloard. I couldn't believe it. I had been skating for like 5 years at the time. My trucks was ovaled af. Hardware was impossible to tighten further because all the threads had been flat for over a year.

I won wheels. Looking back If it was my shop I would have hooked up the complete for the child who's clearly got nothing else in life. It took me like 6 years to get a new complete.

Petty crime is the answer kids

The answer to why older cats like Andy is he takes us back to the beginning

[daewonsbong]

Andy wears the helmet out of spite, people told him he wouldn't get sponsors or a girlfriend while wearing the helmet and so he still wears it to prove people wrong. He has been publicly on record about this a few times.

Don Hartley collided with a friend in seylynn bowl on Canada day in 2009 at a bowl series contest. He was 52 at the time and tragically passed. One of the few skate injury related deaths i've ever heard of, however the accident was due to the high speed collision with another rider.

@ndy 👋derson’s helmet doesn’t come off, it’s like a turtle shell…remove it and he dies.

[Xen]

Why the fuck are you looking at Andy Anderson’s Facebook page?

[SatanicPanic]

Big Helmet heh heh

[TurdyBird]

I don’t know why I need to say this now, and I’ve said it before, but Andy Anderson is one of my least favorite pros. I think I’d rather withstand being in Nyjahs circle than being around &&. I find Andy way more insufferable.
