[armanyoo]

[stalepriest]

I still have this on VHS somewhere.

[dickmharter]

[JayTheHelmetGuy]

he really changed his style when he started girl with olson

[autentyk]

@JayTheHelmetGuy what?!

[JayTheHelmetGuy]

@autentyk just run this and his fully flared part side by side and you'll see what I mean

[autentyk]

@JayTheHelmetGuy it was more about the second part of your comment, nevermind..

[JayTheHelmetGuy]

[Flakatak76]

FUGAZI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[thezigzagmaster]

Rick Howard is the truth

[MrSkateholic]

wow i didn't know he's been skating this long.

[rktsncalnc]

Buttluvr69, do you work there?

[adkinsdiet]

oh wow love it

[ollierodgers1]

in this vid is he skating a curved nose and tail with concave?

[goldwold]

I dug this part I remember leaving the grip off my nose so it was easier to do one footers. So rad. Rick Howard f*cking rules! One of the best.

[bizzmarky76]

I still do alot of this stuff, the kids at the local park think I'm a dinosaur.

[pigdog237]

"Do my elbow" is still a favourite expression.

[rktsncalnc]

"Dude, my elbow."

[pigdog237]

Ha ha - thanks! Well, I've had that wrong for a long time!

So obvious now!

[marokokisetter]

amazing. haha compare this to his part in plan b's questionable 3 years later in '92 its like his skating improved leaps and bounds

[PissDrunxrools]

DAMN!! that boardslide at the end was amazing for its time. not many people back in the day were doing that shit yet. but rick howard did it cuz he was the sickest!!!!!

[RobertsonDaniel]

haha a lot has changed

[TravisChrist777]

old school shuvs are so kool. there so quick and consistent

[cremefresche]

"Blockhead"!! ;P Such a funny name for a company...Always made me think of Gumby and the bad Blockhead guys...;D lol..

[cremefresche]

1:41- curb slappies baby!! ;D bring em back!!

[feslovesputas]

wow this is old i was just being born

[jcskater89]

anyone notice the nosegrind with no nose?

[bpyjktgiuk]

I got this video in 1993, the boards had changed and the video was considered old then, but I liked his part the best out of the video by far as I remember. I watched it alot.

[cryptomnesiac]

damn, this brings back some memories. i still have this vhs kickin around. ricks part was the best in the vid for sure. wow, i used to have a pair of those black airwalks.

a copyright on a blockhead video? yeah right!

[dabatoir]

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! his best part ever

[unokilo321]

i'm surprised this didn't get hit for copy writed bullshit man so many clips going with out sound these days.

[killermonkeypeople1]

2:26 i skate there all the time. its a stupid little four stair but its kinda fun

[sneakattack]

how old was he here?

[bbbokkk]

i think it was 1990...so he would be 17 prob cause hes 35 now i think

[Nominay]

I thought this video was from 1990.

[tryskateboarding001]

That was incredible. Wow.

[rickles33]

One of the best ever, still kills it even though he's on some big boss shit.

Legend status.

[Royalty5353]

big boss shit?

[rickles33]

He is the president of the Girl and Choco family of companies, hence he's the big boss, running all that shit but still ripping harder than ever.

[rickles33]

Spike is one of the founders along with Mike Carroll and Megan Baltimore and Rick but Rick is the President and he runs it. Trust me one of my good friends works there.

[rktsncalnc]

Really? Who do you know at Girl?

[rickles33]

My homie Jordan works in the shipping department, he's one of the main warehouse guys there. Everyone there is hella cool and he says it's an amazing place to work at. Skater owned and operated companies are the best, hands down.

[rktsncalnc]

Man, that's awesome. I wish i had a cool job like that.

[barbarian95man]

@rickles33 what's this song
