  • where's 2:42?????

  • He was born to skate.

  • Tommy's got more FLOW than Mel's Diner.

  • I wasn't born !

  • You suck

  • I kinda wish they didn't cut up his hill lines into clips. I just wanna see Tommy in his element, doing what he did.

  • gäähhhnnn.

  • My Favorite 1st board.... the flaming sword.

  • Tommy G has the glue foot for real ... mad speed and style

  • This is boss as shit Tommy G was essentially the pre dennis busenitz

  • I seriously can't believe you fucks are hating on Tommy G.

  • LOL i was 5 when this came out

  • I think Tommy G. was all style and only style. No substance. In my opinion, Guerrero is a class B pro skater. He is nowhere near Gonzales or Kaupus. Those guys were pushing the envelope with daredevil stunts putting their family jewels on the line everyday. Guerrero won contests by playing it safe. Iam happy that he found a daytime job. Music. Go Tommy G. Go.

  • @reastedd Gonzales, Kaupas and Mullen are miles above any other pro. All who came before and after are ALLLLLLL class B pros! Oh oh oh and Mike Vallely best aggressive/thrash street skater of times.

  • @mhks68 Vallely is a daredevil. He skates fast and hard. Tommy G on the other hand does deep knee bends and flails his arms around to distract the viewer from his lack of guts.

  • @reastedd the problem with that statement is Guerrero was really good, just as Gonzales and Kaupus were for their time. No one doubts that Gonz and Natas were more progressive ... we knew that back then. but Guerrero was still my favorite. I thought he was more fun to watch. he was certainly more consistent. truth is, in the 80's, there wasn't much that Gonz and Natas did than Guerrero and Hosoi couldn't.

  • Yeah! I'd like to skate these hills too! Awesome!

  • Not as sleek, not as natural.

  • Bearing condom wheels= early 90s skate.

  • if i went to wallenburg i wouldnt ollie the four. i would skate the fucking last step as a ledge and do a slappy noseslide dedicated to tommy gurerro.

  • FUCK!!! Those little FUCKING wheelz and those FUCKING STUPID tampon decks. Yo!! Tommy prevent that tragedy.....I guess i'm a little late

  • i don't care how big fuckers go these days; skateboarding will never be as techy as blind -video days, plan b --questionable, world industries- rubbish heap, h street- hokus pokus.

    SLAPPY OWNS!

  • only 8 years since future primative and he looks like a regular guy sk8ing.. weres the smooth smooth we loved

  • Are you kiddin? This part is typical tommy g - smooth as hell. Look at those 180 backside ollies going fast as hell. I'm 10X more stoked on this then most of fully flared.

  • Skateboarding changed, Tommy adapted

  • this is the part where he fucking broke off the 3 up 3 down.. sick

  • skateboarding will never platuea out..........most of the things done today have already been done on a ankle high curbin late 80's early 90's, nowadays its the gnar factor, things can always get gnarlier even when you think you saw the gnarliest thing ever.........SKateboarding will never die(unless we go with it)

  • Comment removed

  • Powell Skate Zone!

  • anybody know tha name of tha song???

  • he skates amazing.

    sits in his cars like a fag, tho :D

  • No he went to jail because he got caught murkin some guy!! In other term's he was pole smokin a mushroom cap!!!

  • didnt he go to jail for murkin some broad?

  • naw man, "GATOR" was the one who killed some "broad" it was his girlfreinds shit talkin friend. dnt hate tommy guerrero he is a leend!!

  • it must have been so easy to get sponsored back then

  • It's important to remember that skating in '93 was almost completely dead. Skating was just getting out of the vert bust (and Gator's murder)...only a handful of people in any city skateboarded. So people weren't pushing each other like they are now. What was "hard" then is easier now. What's hard now might be "easier" ten years from now.

    Also, you have to remember that '93 was the genesis of modern street skating. Gonz had started it in the mid '80s with Natas...still wasn't "modern" though.

  • I totally agree, except for the "whats hard now might be easy ten years from now" part, even though you said "might" I still think what tommy was doing compared to kenny peth who does front blunt forward flip 360 body varials out is still going to be hard 10 years from now unlike the founders of modern street who skills are easily matched now, what I think is that skateboarding will plateau for quite a while until a new style comes from no where to challenge everyone again

  • Maybe.But try to imagine what people thought watching Natas or Gonz in in the late '80s/early '90s. There are a lot of sponsored AMS today who can boardslide that kinked rail Gonz does. But in '91 I guarantee you skaters thought that shit would never be topped. Or take Carlsbad. I remember when Wray frontside flipped it in '95...blew my mind. Now people skate that like a normal gap...it's blown out...a new trick doesn't send shock waves. Still tough as shit to clear, but almost commonplace.

  • ya that is a god way to look at it, I guess we wont know until ten years from now, for all we know skateboarding will be dead by ten years from now.

  • I don't know about you, but I'm kind of hoping some of this crass commercialization of skateboarding will go away. I'm sort of wishing skateboarding will be dead in ten years. It'll leave the core people around.

  • i seriously think its all amental thing. i think anyone in the world is already pro they just need to know it , wnd we find that knoledge thru expirience , our friends push us far enough to find that knoledge. in 10 years things will look easy an

  • i kinda agree with you.. i too think that skateboarding mostly is a mental thing, if you can get the whole trick together in your head, you can do it in real life. of course you need to have control and practice, but once you have that, its all about how you focus about the trick in your head. thats how skateboarding is progressing from the 70 to today, we see new stuff all the time, and then we start thinking about new stuff, and do it..

  • yeah, i agree with that

  • @vdubster2000: Not really. Even back then to turn pro or get sponsored, you had to rip.

  • i mean this in a completely positive way but skating and videos have progressed so much since then

  • Bandini, you are really old school

  • too bad you don't skate!!

    dick

  • its so odd looking at the steps at 2:26 because now its a legendary skate spot and its all completely waxed

  • i never relized the part at 2:26 was 3rd and armory...

  • what? 3 up 3 down

  • He confused "the armory" with 3rd and army, or combined the two for that matter

  • Yo got n sk8in when i waz 10 and i was 14tn n 1988 . tryed 2 b just like him and natas. i was as good

  • thank you for uploading this i cant find it anywhere

  • supra-classic! can anyone tell me whats the name of the song, please? thanks a lot!

  • legenda.

  • i love this old newschool stuff!

  • mad respect

  • Best style from back in the day!

  • classic tom! ;]

  • tommy rips, but i gotta say, compared to the steet skating bit in 'future primitive' this kinda lags. it's like he let go of much of that personal style and creativity of those footloose and fancy-free days to embrace the more rigid and standardized tricks of the early 90's. maybe it was the peer pressure. yeoyee! guess i just miss the 'surfy' lines and long takes.

  • poopbreak, Tommy is in his 40's and plays killer music and had traveled the world. What did you do with your life ?

  • all i'm saying is check his flow in future primitive, than watch this vid. totally different. no disrespect.

  • This may sound stupid but is this the same Tommy Guerrero who makes music!? Probably sounds a bit dumb of me but i am just unsure. If so then this guy is a legend. Any feedback to my question is appreciated.

  • it is, his music is butter.

  • aguante los locos patinetassss !!!! david

  • Ripping Style

  • One Of My Fav Skaters !

  • Saw him skate many times, he shreds the street.

  • anybody got this whole video?

  • he is amazing

  • One of the original Bones Brigade just makes him a legend.

  • what a dramatic change on skateboarding from the 80´s...

  • i like the old one better

  • Tommy once kick flipped a cat into a burlap sack in his fannypack.

  • this just in, the number of tricks you can do doesnt judge how good you are at skating

  • i like how all these little ass clowns compare every skater to one person. every skater has a different style. shut up. you can't compare john cardiel and mark gonzales even though they're both great skaters. once again, STOP comparing everyone to your favorite tony haw's pro skater character.

  • Are you better than Tommy G in 93 now?

  • Those are skateboard rots.

  • skating is all about style.... this dude has it

  • skatins all bout passion and takin things to the extereme here in ireland we skate insanely like im once kickfliped off a fire escape

  • one of the all time greats!!!a true legend!!!

    my all time favorite!!!

  • Whoa, I hate small wheels. Anything smaller than 57mm is too slow for me. It just gets silly, especially watching Tommy go downhill in those tiny tiny wheels.

  • This is amazing - no one beats TG's style.

  • kuzzleduzzle: Tommy has always been about style, and style is impressive in any era - to me, anyway. There's plenty of room for the gnarly stuff that was in the Plan B vids AND the kind of smooth, soulful skating Tommy was doing when those guys were in diapers...

  • I don't think people would have been very impressed by this in 1993, especially when you consider that 'Questionable' came out a year before it.

  • True, but for TG it's rad. He's got one of the top 3 styles ever imho and this is definitely better than his Powell parts in Public Domain and Ban This.

  • for the love of god

    please upload sickboys..

  • can you put up Salman's part? (if you have it)
