badass part, I love the style from the 90's. Everyone skated with spirit, all the kids these days are trying to make it look so effortless that it's just that, "effortless" and it looks like doo doo. crop dusting flip tricks is lame.

reese forbes just gets worse adn worse. when will people realize all hes got is pop. seriously one of the biggest mistakes in skateboarding - reese forbes making it
You dont know what your talking about. This is in 96. Dont hold this up to todays carcass tossing or tech wizardry. Just enjoy his street cruising and big man style.
naw bill, it's reese's fucking make or die, barge hard as fuck style along with his incredible pop that made him in skateboading, while you sit on your ass talking shit on him soon to work a 9-5 in a suit and tie drinking hater-aid. sweet life
I skated with Reese when he was 7 yo...This wasn't 11 years ago...He was doing this in '91 easy. Always blew away the guys down at Freedom Plaza. There were some more technical guys but Reese blazed full-speed downhills, over 3' walls, 20 foot gaps w/ 10' foot drops...He was insane. Like Sean Sheffy. Another guy that had real balls. I always get sick of seeing guys do technical stuff at negative 3mph. Try doing that backside 180 over 3 1/2' the railing. that was in '91 man.

oh, and fine. He's does some tech shit switch. fine. the most boring modern day skate "inovention". They can't be creative so they do old tricks switch. Cool. Busenitz is pretty good on the creative side for being new school. This guy is fucking boring.
"three flip @ 0.58 is sick" wow, a three stair tre. how unimpressive. Compared to really creative skaters like gonz etc. this is just really boring. It looks like I'm watching guy mariano's part in 1991. Actually I would rather be watching mariano's part. And nobody better thumbs down this until you youtube mariano in blind video days. or may you forever feel guilty for talking out of your ass.
wow, he can actually do tricks other than kickflip and ollie really high...i never knew he could switch tre flip! his switch tre reminds me of jamie thomas's switch tre
hey. i thought eastern exposure 3 was all black and white.... i must be wrong... but didnt eastern exposure feature a part with reese forbes in black and white? if i am right.. that part is way sicker than this... and if i am right... what video is that on????
awesome video, almost entirely filmed at very well known D.C. spots
