[itsakadoozy95]

who the shit names a kid gai?

[annakwan78]

Lloyd Robertson looking/feeling awkward on a skateboard. LOL At least he knew to keep things in stride. Always with class :)

[twobit211]

she'd be around sixty years old now! i'd love to know the rest of her story

[brknspacebar]

skurf sounds sexual

[njam101]

It's funny how the police had that much of a problem with skateboarders back then. They probably thought that Gai Cochrane was such a big rebel back then. I love how she dressed for the interview.

[xllxAndrewxllx]

HAHAH HER NAME IS GAY XD

[nellux]

Pretty woman.

[pay2cme]

SKURFING = SKATING AND SURFING

Is that Lloyd Robertson? He's still on the air here in Canada! Hillarious..... I wish Skurfing was the only problem with youth these days....

[missourimedic]

Thanks for pointing me here, Ashton. I just recently watched the Dogtown and Z-Boys documentary. Fantastic stuff. I'm 37 years-old, and just began skating a year ago. I'm doing Ollies now, and starting to get the hang of it. Good bonding time with my 8 year-old son. :)

[jmay2002]

Lloyd being the pimp back in the day probably try to romance the girl LOL!!!

[KultureJamCollective]

"The police are directing an organized campaign to stamp out these menacies." A little overboard, don't ya' think?

[njam101]

@KultureJamCollective No different than how they how they handled protesters at the G20!

[bklonb]

she has a stereotypical canadain accent

[TAKIDANI]

very cool . nothing has change , the cops still hassle us.

[MarvelousJosh]

Damn straight.

[BeatnikBeat58]

Skurfs up! Man, those wacky Canadians.

[6motion6]

As a woman I've rarely seen any female sidewalk surfers, especially back then. The street style was certainly different. I bet she doesn't skate anymore, but I hope so

[ashburnhouse]

god, she is a real babe!

[scoopster6619]

banana boards ..wow...had a yellow one.

[nubbs]
