When I had only been skating for a few months, I rented Sorry, Man Down, and Baker2g at the same time from this shop that used to be by me.
It was the first time I saw any of them, and the only video I had seen before watching them was some random late nineties 411 and Tony Hawk's Trick Tips vol.2.
Needless to say I was pretty impressed, to this day those are still three of my favorite videos.
And THPS2 is the greatest one of the series, if for no other reason than the inclusion of a Philly level.
