  • fucking scooters....

  • Check out the Hosoi documentary. This guy has been through a lot, and has his shit back together. Still can rip too...

  • I used to skate from '86-'91 and loved all the Powell videos. I was always partial to ramp skating because there wasn't that desire to prove how tough you were like there was with street skaters.

  • ALL YOU FUCK HEADS TALKING SHIT WHY DONT YOU PICK UP A BOARD FIRST A PRO MODEL..NOT SOME CHEAP SHIT BOARD FROM YOU KNOW WHO...EAT SHIT BITCHES

  • Ok, if you are a true Skateboard like you all claim to be, why can't you appreciate all styles of Skateboarding? Skateboarding isn't about Vert vs. Street. It's about your expression of style. Skateboarders should be coming together, not putting up walls between each other.

    We all know who our true enemy is..........

    ..............................­...............fucking scooters.

  • fuck tony hawk he,s a wal-mart brand name thats no legend to me

  • @kansasoutdoorsnetwok well you obviously haven't seen pre-2011 skating sir

  • @kansasoutdoorsnetwok LOL WOW POSER......just becuase everyone knows his name you say hes not a legend u goof!

  • @kansasoutdoorsnetwok As soon as you can skate as well as he has done over the past 25 years, show us or shut up.

  • Fukin a ... The force is strong here....

  • Wow. I like how Tony Hawk, supposed skate legend bailed doing a simple grind. Wow. Just wow.

  • @Zackg119 it's called "boardslide". Wow.

  • @ilsk3n .___. okay?

  • @Zackg119 He's only human man

  • @WHITE5KIN Yeah... but he's one of those humans that's supposed to be a a legend at what they do

  • @Zackg119 moron. do you land all your tricks first try?

  • @donavon Fuck yeah, clearly I'm the best skater that EVER EXISTED. No, dipshit. I wasn't saying I was, I was stating that 'Tony Hawk' is supposed to be beast, not some fucking Wal-Mart branded sellout that can't BS Boardslide.

  • @Zackg119

    i didn't say you said you were. if you've ever skated a corner bowl you'd know that that shit isn't easy. he's a fucking legend learn some respect.

  • @donavon I like cats.

  • @donavon Oh, FS Board, my bad.

  • @Zackg119

    what the fuck are you talking about. that was backside. do you even skate?

  • @donavon Lo and behold, I'm also a banana.

  • @Zackg119

    is banana some new slang for dumbass?

  • @donavon You bet.

  • @Zackg119

    here's some advice, don't talk shit if you can't do better

  • @donavon Here's some advice, look both ways when crossing the street.

  • @Zackg119

    thanks my mom taught me that when i was 5

    you still didn't answer my question of whether you skate

  • @donavon Yes, I do skate. And for skating a year, I fucking suck. Cool?

  • @Zackg119

    sure, whatever. don't be a hater, just cause others to hate you back

  • @donavon I'm still a banana

  • @Zackg119

    i agree

  • @donavon iighteee

  • The history of skating is cool because it has been on most of our lifetimes. If any of you are as old as I am than you might know the story of Christain Hosoi. If he never went to jail, I thnk that he would have been the worlds best still to this day.  Although his story is a touching one, it is a shame that he had so much talent and wasted it looking to quench his void via a high. After he dies, someone could write a book about his life and so many would enjoy his story.

  • is that spirit in black playing in the background?

  • @imseeingred9119 it's SLAYER!!!!!!

  • Loved watching these dudes doing battle all round the world in the 80s.

  • He carved the piss outta that bowl.

  • its sad how easy arguments spark up. i just watch the video. Who cares who has better style? just keep it to your fucking self, damn Oh and vert was here before street, it was the beginning of it all so no one should hate on vert

  • I CAN HEAR SOME SLAYER

  • lol its like nothing for him i bet he could talk on the cell phone while doing a christ air

  • dude thats muffed up but i could not stop lol :)

  • I want that in my backyard.

  • do you have 100K? lol

  • Hosoi was carving it up!

  • no one is ever too old to skate. unless you physically cant move at all

  • yup i agree with you. look at og de souz. such a beast without any legs

  • i saw christian hosoi and jesse martinez at the grand opening of venice skatepark yesterday. it was pretty cool

  • Hosoi came to my church yesterday he's a really cool guy . Got an autographed board .

  • its all about Danny way

  • Hosoi takes his first Gold at X Games. So much for thinking he can only carve now Seafag69...

  • You can see Hosoi and Hawk at this year's legends event on August 2nd at the Xgames!! anyone going?

  • hell yeah. they're listening to slayer.

  • mmjader, you're right about street skater wearing their sisters pants. What the hell is up with that shit??

  • I have read all of the vert against street stuff and it makes me laugh.Why not skate it all? That's what I try to do. The concrete parks that we have now are amazing. Tranny is where it's at. But I just don't get why street skaters wear their sisters pants.What's up with that?

  • @mmjader i agree!

  • @mmjader not trying to hate but there are pants for boys like that

  • @TheHornet555 I know, I'm just being a smart ass.

  • @mmjader i noticd that too. skin tight jeans so gay. 80s rules. for everything. wish there was a okace tio get someold school 80s skate shoes and clothes. lke lifes a beach and suede high tops visions and vans..

  • @mmjader i skate both

  • @mmjader agreed.

    i use to be all street all the time and didnt like vert...i saw it as a dorky type of skating.

    One day i seen a doco on pool skating called "clorine" and it changed my mind about it all...seing those guys rip those pools was amazing and i looked a vert differantly too.

    I still like street better, its more fun to watch but thats mainly cos i cant skate ramps for shit and i can relate to the streets better.

    If you can do airs on vert then you're an amazing skater with huge balls.

  • @mmjader ...... u are messed up.... just because SOME street skaters wear skinny jeans ALL of us are like that.

  • LUCKY! You got to see Hosoi, AND Hawk?!?! I wish i was there!

  • seahhag69, if you think all Hosoi can do is carve a bowl now you need to watch the All 80s All Day Vert Challenge..

  • Wow stfu hosio was and is the best evr vert and street i rather watch him just carve up a bowl and hit high air than watch ne body else hitin tricks

  • seahag69,

    The all 80's all day vert challenge took place in December of 08 moron. Not in the 80's. It was an 80's style contest put on to recognize those skaters that did skate in the 80's. If you had even bothered to check it out you would have known that. Instead you came back here to make a bigger ass of yourself.

  • @seahhag69 yeah but hawk bailed early

  • Christian Hosoi....greatest of all time

  • Tony Hawk=900 nuff' sed

  • vert sucks but clearly hosoi is the best sk8r look it up he beat tony

  • vert doesnt suck its way cooler then kickflipping a 9 or whatever

  • Are you joking? Vert's obviously hard too but street has so many more things to do. the reason it's not still so popular is because theres so many variations of street that it's just amazing, you could look up 500 different street skating vids and never see the same thing, vert's good too but it doesnt really differ, a halfpipes a halfpipe naww mean?.

  • Vert skaters would rather skate something more repetitive. Street has much more variations. Its about what people wnat. skaterbros1002 is a faggot.

  • skate it all or dont skate!!!!!!!!

  • I agree with you, skaterbros1002. Alot of modern street skating really is just the same old shit. People need to appreciate more diversity of styles in skateboarding, there's so much different stuff out there that the mainstream skate media deosn't cover.

  • i heard that! the only folks who do not like vert are either afraid of it or suck at it!

  • Well said!

  • vert doesnt suck.?its just a different style of skateboarding. If you skate, you should be able to appreciate that shit

  • well, was now theres better skaters then tony and hosoi but hosoi was definetly the best around 1980 and stuff xD

  • vert rocks

  • with that statement you clearly and concisely proved to all of us that you do not have enough skill to sk8 vert and you are chicken shit of it. tell your parents we're sorry

  • you guys all sound like the biggest cock smokers.

  • Hawk and Hosoi both shred and there both legends. But hosoi missed out when vert died he went down the wrong track like alot of other pros at the time (Gator) but hes outta jail and seems happy. Hawks a true skate rat he didnt give a shit very died and kept skating nd wasnt too bad at street 180d gonz gap back in the day people just hate him coz hes rich

  • isn't hosoi like 40 now?

    Oh well he's still fucking amazing!

  • hosoi is god

  • they were clearly just fuckin around

  • danny the kiddyfiddler...change your handle slick

  • go fuck your dog in the pooper you silly faggot

  • best style ever,period..couldnt care less if he fucks a blow up jesus doll,style is what its about you gaylord "watch me pretend im going to land a flip" wannabe poser fashion victim dickless discraces,fuck off and die fuckface,you are cunts yes you,style and power something you"ll never have

  • what about lance mountain and Omar Hassan and danny way!! still out there doing new tricks and breaking bones!! I will melt a bible on your eyeballs. go eat an armadillos ass out

  • Do you think he was "cooler" as a self absorbed phony drug dealer?

  • fuck u

  • dannythefuck . . these guys are old. . '86 was 23 years ago. . puck dick

  • You don't know what the fuck your talking about you homosexual koala fucker....

  • Danny WAY!

  • North Americans, Brazilians and skateboarders of all part in the world. It's natural that the Americans elect an American, and of course, that a Brazilian say "Bob!". I remember the Rodney Mullen, in the 80s, as the king of the freestyle mode and Tony Hawk in vertical. But, to elect the best of all, I think we have to see who was the best overall (freestyle, street, vert ramp and mega). Mullen is the king on the ground and I think in vert, is Bob. Perhaps Tony Hawk is the best in general?...

  • The Kings...

    soccer = Pelé, basketball = Michael Jordan, tenis = Federer, surfboarding = kelly Slater, skateboarding = Tony Hawk or Bob Burnquist? (For me, is Bob. And for you? Who is the king?)

  • WHAT THE FUCK, you fucking tool.

    faggot shut the fuck up you fucking grom ass peice of shit.

  • Vai se fuder você, seu americano arrogantezinho de merda! Como tá a crise ai no seu todo poderoso Estados Unidos?! hauhauahauahu...já perdeu o emprego? hauahau.. não conseguiu pagar a hipoteca da casa? hahahaha... manda um abraço (por trás) pro titio bush, hein?! (COM SAPATO IRAQUIANO E TUDO!) e não se esqueça... BOB RULES, MAN!--- E SÓ PRA NÃO PERDER O COSTUME... FODA-SE VOCÊ E TODO O SEU PAIS DO CARALHO! (NUNCA PISEI NESTA MERDA E NUNCA QUERO PISAR!)

  • fucking idiot

  • vai se fuder você! Com certeza você é mais um americano otário que votou no Bush, né seu bosta?! Então foda-se você e toda a crise que vocês criaram!

    BOB RULES!

  • Hello. I'm from São Paulo-SP, Brazil (the South America's skateboarding capital) and in the 80's I saw the fight between Cristian Hosoi and Tony hawk for the world hegemony. In that time, sure, we only dreamed, but today, I'm very proud to know that Bob Burnquist is the 'Pelé' (the King) of the skateboarding, like the Brazilian skateboarding is on the top of the world. (Unhapping it still not happened with the Brazilian surfboarding). Hosoi, God bless you! (sorry 4 my bad english)

  • tony has lots of tricks but no style, all about winning, i think this guy killed skate himself, skating ain´t fun any more.

  • hosoi is the best damn sk8r on this hole damn planet

  • and what have you ever done? Hosoi's achievements dwarf that of most pro atheletes. Hawks doing just about the same thing as him. Both are probably there just to relax and mess around a little.

  • The kid was good at what he did then made mistakes and know hes back. All you fagots that hate on him need to know that your on a computer writing about him, Whats that say about you. Losers!!

  • the funny thing is if you look up the contest record hosi beat tony in every contest they ever entered. as a matter of fact i don't belive tony ever beat any of the other pros of the 80's

  • lol

  • wow. :( this vid makes me so sad. some1 msg me!! xD k

  • if only hasoi laid of da drugz fer sure hell b on top tony sec but hasoi will alwayz take up da 1st spot imagine if hasoi never tried drugz

  • greeneyez - stfu !

  • I grew up skating with a Hosi board from the 80's. I like him and my bro liked Hawk. 50 - 50 in my book. But look what drugs can do to you kids. Look at Hawk and Hosi now. NO HUGS IN DRUGS!

  • Tony has millions, who cares!

    Hosoi is a leyend, he is all style....he made skateboarding look fucking cool!

    He is the Christ!!!!

  • bitch quit talking about your fantasys....just cuz you wanna rape hosoi doesnt mean we wanna hear it...

  • i met christain yesturday at lake cunnigham skatepark in sj ca

  • wrockdrum - BFD !!!

  • skating fast isnt even cool

  • Sweet, Christian goes so much faster than Jay haha. Guess I don't need to point this out. What is up with all this arguing? really guys? 8/

  • tonys just cruzin probably gots a million dollar contract to go sighn later so he dont want to be all sweaty n stuff hes gots nothing to prove to that bum , as for hosoi he will forever be in tonys shadow and no matter how fast he skates he will never be as good as a tony .

  • still has better style then tony...so stfu...

  • hosoi has so much more style

  • how did you end up being there with a camera when they were there?Man your lucky!:0

  • despite what happen this is classic footage..the NOW.. the past is what it is history..Hosoi was my favortie but he F up. He can turn it around now..but since 07 i really havent heard much...at all..he needs to get back out here ..make appeareances..or maybe he had a re laps

  • i hate when ppl say hosoi deserves hawks success when the reason hawk went 2 the top was b/c he was an amazing skater as well as being a positive role model who didn't screw up his own chances like christ

  • hey when u hit your thirties come see me to anybody who thinks it cant happen to them meaning anyone still in their 20's...jayzone!

  • I wish Hosoi came back to hawaii again, i wanted to meet him. My friend is related to him, so lucky :(

  • i did haha lol

  • how old are these two now?.anybody know?.

  • Pretty sure they're both 40.

  • Hosoi could have been great as hawk? In what terms wealth? Because in style hes miles ahead of hawk. And as far as $ goes he was the highest paid skater for a whole decade. Hawk= twig on a limb w/ wheels, no stlye.

  • but as far as fame goes, Hawk is miles ahead of every one because of the games and tv ads

  • I hate that Hosoi blew his ride. He could have been as great as Hawk. I saw him do the first ever MigTwist (i'm not sure of spelling) wen it was just a dream. It was AMAZING!!! We didn't stop talking about it for months!=)

  • Spelled "mictwist"

    good guess tho

  • uh you too, it's spelled "McTwist" named after McGill DUH!

  • yea i know

    i fucked up but was too lazy to correct myself -_-

  • hosoi should throw in the towel already .

  • he did, his cum-soaked towel at your mom

  • awesome video

  • Is it me or was HOSOI!! going faster than HAWK??

  • tony hawk has the worst steeze ever

  • lol . . Hosoi is a born-again Christian, but SLAYER MUSIC in tha' background. Fckn' luv it. Slayer rules!!! (I once had me both boards back in tha' day, even saw Hosoi @ Anahiem Convetion center '87-)

  • I'm a devout Roman Catholic and I still listen to Metallica, Rob Zombie, Static X and Slayer.LOL

  • It's cool they're old timers and are still able to just grab a stick and do whatever.

    It was also cool to see Hawk bite it!! hahahaha Reminds me he's just a guy and that I can do it, too. Very cool moment.

    There isn't a big crowd or anything so I'd say they were just hanging together by the look of it. I like this vid.

  • ive meet both of these guys and im only 15

    they come to pacifica skatepark alot. tony brings his son i am trying to find the video of it its sick

  • i agree

  • I like how though Hosoi was locked up for a considerable amount of time and mr. hawk has been skating everyday, Hosoi still rips it with far more attitude and flow than mr. hawk...

  • i like how hawk built a empire and became a millionaire by staying true to himself and skating while hosoi was taking it in the ass in prison for selling out and being the pseudo he is.

  • word!

  • I like how you assholes are feuding and both Hosoi AND Hawk are friends skating together and laughing in a video while making enough money to buy your families with cash.

  • critopams - i am not feuding i am merely stating facts , nowhere in this video does it show these guys laughing or skating together you are having delusions or you are just retarded which one is it asshole ????

  • your the asshole seahhag69....

  • Hahahahah. Man, you really go out of your way for this guy huh. Again, Everyone click, "skateboarding Christian Hosoi Christ air" its over there on the right, and see what a fucking blatant liar this seahag piece of shit is. He loves using words like "pseudo, asshole and retard" yet he fully represents all three. LIAR!

  • jdebruh12-why are you trying to swing off of hosoi's ball sack so much , the guy is a tweaker - TWEAKER = LOOSER .

  • No, you commented on more Hosoi things than I have. I dont really know shit about Him. I do know you have some weird beef with him for no apparent reason. And I know your a fake and a liar. Everyone on this thread knows your full of shit so stop acting like we care.

  • Alot of peopel use drugs for alot of different reasons. Doesn't inherently make them a loser.

    Without a doubt Christian Hosoi made some very bad decisions but you have to respect his ability. He has more talent in his big toe than all of us have combined.

  • i like how tony did a fronteside rail right in hosoi's face !!!

  • dork

  • do you know how NUTZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ this is..it's like a group that's been apart for years doin a little gig together..theres soooo much to say of what's going on in this video..Hawk with Hosoi??? fuck..I would of payed to seem this just roll around and do nothing..
