Started skateboarding in 1998, looking back at this footage reminds me of how different things are nowadays but it's still all the same. Just wish I saw more variety in the way kids skate, dress,etc instead of just all looking the same. Skateboarding doesn't have just ONE look or style, it's anything and everything you want it to be.
i was also there that day, i had my parents drive my 8th grade ass 4.5 hours to watch this shit two years in a row. LEGALIZED SKATING in downtown philly for a day or two. met oyola and josh kalis just chillin in love park, skated the ledge with the grate below it. wow what a day
I remember seeing this on espn when i was like 7 before school. I recorded it on the vcr and watched it over and over again lol. This shit's OG as fuckk
we got chased by cops with tasers. In 2009(Cops are even more relentess, two of my friends were arrested.) I got away ITS JUST MARBLE AND STONE LET US SKATE!!!!!!!!!!!
i am trying to organize this is winnipeg if you live in winniepg and you skateboard, on june 21st national go skate day come to the legislative building at around 12:00once enough people come we are going to skateboard down broadway to the skatepark, we need alot of people cuz then the cops cant do anything copy and paste this to all the skate vids you watch!!!!!!!!!!!!!()
I WAS FUCKING THERE MAN!!! omg i remember the orange jersey wall. i was like fucking 8 when i was there. omg this was an epic fucking day for skating philly.
