@BorrachosOfTheDino It was still fucken hard back then mate, just more tricks now. If they weren't invented we couldn't do them, plus the boards today make morons look good, they pop more with pressure flips now than a good old tail snapping ollie from the days of single kicks, yeah baby, try throwing a single kick NATAS deck into a front foot impossible, that's skating lol
damn.. that would be tight if i hadnt just been born when skating was like this. i could be like pro right now. back then it was more about fun not competition
its amazing how skateboarding transformed. im not taking anything away from jason lee but just think that all you had to do was this to become pro. now instead of kickflip to manual a box, you have to tre nosemany nollie flip out
thats just cuz there is so many people skateboarding now days, and everyone is learning these tricks easy so it pushes the scale to be better just higher
you're totally right, i can't think of any 'sport' that has progressed as fast as skateboarding has, and lets not forget that a street ollie was first done only about 7-8 years earlier than when this was shot, if that.
But Jason Lee, man, he was the real deal and you can't judge him just from that demo footage - his video days part was amazing,.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i never knew he sk8d until i played th project 8 then i thot i wonder if he actually does sk8 so i looked for his sk8boarding vids and guess wat,.....he does sk8
goldensun38 is right...who cares what somebody is or isn't? somebody can't tell you what is right for you so don't tell other people whats right for them. just appreciate what the man does on a board and if you don't like something attack the subject not the man. find your own path in life.
I was at this demo, i swear to god! my friend actually told j. lee he looked like he should be on 90210 (popular tv show at the time, for all you kids).
He seems much too smart to fall for Scientology's bullshit but then again he did name his son Pilot Inspector. Regardless, he's got the best style skating wise ever.
