This is what a group of skateboarders hanging in a living room ALWAYS sounds like. Nobody likes the sound of their own voice played back to them.

I like how unfiltered this was. Got me thinking about a few things:

Pros who self promote on instagram too much. Or the guys who post every single package they get with everything layed out.

Alex Olson has been growing on me lately, except for assulting that old guy in cherry because he didn't get his way.

As far as favorite pros when you were a kid vs now. The Muska made me want to skate. Mike Carroll and Mark Appleyard next. And today's rippers Luan, Ishod, Wes and Walker Ryan.

Most rewatchable videos for me would have to be Sorry and Really Sorry. Watched Modus Operandi probably a thousand times as a kid. Vhs is so much better than youtube quality for old vids.

They need to quit talking over each other and let one speak. Good start though.

I liked Dustin Dollin a lot as a kid. I was surprised that no one mentioned AWS or Habitat videos at all. Only thing I dont like about Olson is that he tries to act like an old man that isnt in touch with modern skate trends

I thought the same thing, I'm the same age as all those younger dudes (17-18) and I had the privilege of my first skate movie being Mosaic. I was surprised they didn't say Photo, Mosaic or Mindfield. Its almost like its uncool to even mention the workshop now among the FA "cool" kids. I really enjoyed that whole show and found myself wanting to be in on the discussion and wishing I could give my 2 cents

My thoughts exactly. Habitat/AWS videos are the best.

Ollie Ringwald · « **Reply #10 on:** June 19, 2014, 05:34:19 AM »

I liked this, Olson is pretty good on the radio. If they played a few relevant songs from the videos they were talking about it it'd make a good weekly show.

i dont think any of them ride for FA except Pablo, and between FA Cons and Supreme he probably doesnt need a job. I was thinking about stu and ben and genisis

Ben works as a chef at a restaurant, I know stu just finished school in california and moved over to new york to live but I dont know how he and genesis afford it either.

I don't know any of these kids, but I know that when you have friends it's not so hard to live in the city. I shared flats in San Francisco and had friends who had places in the Bronx and Brooklyn. I know stuff is more expensive now but when I was 22 I was paying $400 a month for a room in a flat in the North Beach neighborhood in SF. I lived with four other people. You can work part-time anywhere and have enough for rent. These dudes who are sponsored don't have to pay for boards or shoes, and I'm sure they eat cheap food. Shit's easy when you're young, have open availability and don't have any kids.
