I really enjoyed this series. I've always been a big fan of Kalis since around 1995-1996, I remember wanted to dress like him and Dyrdek I had DC's and swishy pants, camos from sunny's surplus. I remember being psyched and going out and getting his first pro model when it first came out, the grey ones with the green DC logo...so sick. His sexth sense part remains my favorite part from him, this is back when if someone had a transworld part it was their best part.
Even though I talk shit on Dyrdek mainly because of frustration I have because of what his place in skateboarding has become, I have to give credit where it is due, he is 100% accurate in describing Kalis. He has never changed and is a very real dude, and was one of the raddest pro's you'll ever meet. I have to commend Dyrdek for admitting that he is "upriver"(where the fish come easier?) and that Kalis should no be associated with that, this makes me feel like Dyrdek does still get it.
Funny to think, watching these episodes and getting a good background of Kalis's childhood, quitting skating, mental institutions, sketchy street kid it's amazing how he turned into and remains to be one of the best examples of a professional skateboarder. I'm glad Stevie pointed that out.
Fucking great series....Pat O'Dell killed it with that one.
