Anthony Pappalardo Off The Grid

[jersey by nature]

this fucking sucked.

Seconded!

[able]

laMe.  I was expecting to see someone kickflipping their dick off

[LemonParty]

 well judging by the fact that he skated from around 1-2am till sunrise must prove pops is indeed on meth.

[NowhereInLife]

i was hoping to see front a 360 shuv.  sometimes when i roll around at night i'll drink an iced coffee or eat a small bag of chips.

yay pops!

[steenz]

 i am a fan of pops,,but he should really step up his skate game

[corn flakes]

sickkkk

[LewAlcindor]

this video instantly validates the berrics as actually relevant and worth my time.

[i used to skate]

I love Pops, and I think I understand (and dig) the idea of this. But honestly, I expect a little bit more than a few curb ollies around a couple drunk patrons and a plywood wedge ramp ollie. I mean, I guess he has to take what's offered in that area where his dart hit, but everyone else seemed to come up with more under the same circumstances.

he wasn't really that limited. he landed on Morgan stop but most of that was Bedford/Lorimer. Not saying its cheating, but just, there's plenty of shit to skate if your radius is that big. And its not as if its some unfamiliar neighborhood where he had to search shit out, he knew exactly where he was

cool clip though

[ekayallday]

i got this vibe that he was homeless

[Tufty]

Sometimes you gotta wander around the city and explore it by doing only tricks you have first try during the process. Its the funest thing in the world.


Like the video and the idea behind it

one flip trick on flat, is that too much to ask for?

yes. up next the ben gilley off the grid.

[sid vicious]

clip was rad - a good approach to the repetitive "off the grid" format.........throwing a dart at a map can lead you to something or nothing, he chose a cool approach just flowing around until the sun came up.
i back it.

if he was on really on meth he would of done cooler stuff

[Choad Muskrat]

only problem... dude is never on the grid.

that shit's funny.  I liked the clip, I do this a lot.

[G.Lewis]

I like him, but I thought it was boring too.  I expect more from someone who is able to make a living off of skateboarding.  This would have been better if it were Ricky Oyola.  At least he would have put some heart into it.

[Russel Crowe]

I rather do that, than watch it. but it wasnt bad

[L33Tg33k]

You people are fucking insane.  I seriously hate you guys, especially the guys who are going on about the east coast and shit.  I'm going to reddit.

[Inanimate Object]

Those of you under the age of twenty five - shut your child faces. This was nice.

I liked it, and keep your jockified babylon to yourself and chase the "RADiKal Trixxzzz" dragon down on abc or fox televising street league, cause I hope to see more videos like it in the future.
When I go out skating late at night, I'm not exactly kickflipping my dick off either, nor would I take more than 2 tries at anything before moving on and skating to the next spot. This was a good, unfiltered, (and im gonna cringe a little bit with this last one...) and raw depiction of what skateboarding means to someone like me, and what an average night rolling around the neighborhood feels like.
I'm not bringing a generator along with me.
No I don't wanna watch the shot we just got.
Fuck a car, cellphone, or anything in my pockets 'sept a sweaty dollar for a bottle of water.
Lets go see whats over there.
And then take a different way back.

sweatercuff summed it up

yeh i think we're done here..  pops doesnt skate for you fuckos who want NBDs and the latest trend in ledge dancing or flip-trickery in every new clip someone puts out.. i went out the other night and did less than pops did here - charged solo through downtown atl on a saturday night dodging drunk jocks and nightclub bouncers on the sidewalks and just doing ollies and powerslides while constantly moving from spot to spot - in my head i was thinking about the shit i really wanted to do at those spots but knowing it would take me 20 tries. keep moving. very few kids who skate these days can understand that type of skating. they grow up at parks and stair sets - drive from spot to spot. this off the grid shit is the type of skating i like to watch because i can relate to it.

pops will probably always be hooked up because he is respected - but i bet he doesnt really care. if that makes you mad or jealous or envious then too bad.. look at the number of kids out there who can do every trick, tech as shit and gnarly. they cant all get hooked up, its mostly luck and who you know - simple reality. if youve seen anything on him recently or watched his epicly laterd he is all psyched on woodworking and creating furniture now.. and he's obviously still psyched on skating too. pops is just doing his thing

[blackalbino]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
yeahhhh, pro skaters are so busy!!!

[pizzafliptofakie]

My trips to class are usually more exciting than this. I weave through people, ollie up curbs, and sometimes I do 180s.

[Jive Turkey]

I don't even see this as a good career move

Are you fucking serious?
It's impossible to put into words how much you suck.

[Jive Turkey]

one flip trick on flat, is that too much to ask for?

Would it really make any difference? Instead people would be saying "One fucking flip trick on flat? That's it?! Couldn' he at least done a grind?"

You people just love to bitch.

[The Math Professor]

Was he riding a blank?  Pops of Chocolate?  Pops of the Grid?

[scorpion1001]

really bummed on the lack of flip tricks but aside from that it was pretty cool. hopefully this is a good sign for him having a full part in the choc vid

[DEDBBIS]

Is there any way to see this clip without Berra profiting from me visiting his site?

[chrisathans]

i liked it a lot. i can't front though, i was hoping for some flatground cruising flips. not because that's what i like to see from all skaters, but that's what i came up seeing from pops. he'd always throw in a couple flatground tricks in his lines. didn't bum me out though. i liked it.
