Animal Chin Ramp - Axe Rated - 1988

[Lestat2631]

It is from "search for animal chin", lol, before the web, when I was a kid. I am glad it still exists, you had to know a guy that went to a certain skate shop, in order to see this, you should all feel lucky, there was no Dew Tour, it was a bunch of kids skating, making videos for kids that loved to skate, it was the beginning....

Just met him 2 days ago, feel honored he's in Seattle btdubs

[TheCurls1]

anyone found him? ;)

[SteveZussou]

Awesome, one of the classics!

[scurfskate]

that music is so weird

[Syncue]

One of the best skate flicks ever. Who does the music? that is sick! 1988hmm.. could be considered the first drum n bass beats i guess. its stangely like jungle because of the Amen chops. Anyone know who wrote this beat?

[sneakerthekid]

So very!!

[charlieandjackXD]

lol i was told this by some old guy at a skatepark in my town they finished today. ITS AWESOME. cost 60 grand and is concrete =D

[OsmanExpress]

[Lestat2631]

forgive my lack of trick terms, but I love that "180 tail stall to fakey" Hawk did...

..I can't ride fakey to save my life, doing that on vert is sick in my eyes.

Swine Flu sick!

[him89]

fakie bro, and are you talking about at 3:25 because he doesn't take it to fakie.

[carrollthirteen]

4:35...but you see? I can't even SPELL fakie!

:)

[him89]

@carrollthirteen I don't even know what that is actually called, maybe fakie blunt spine transfer, fakie tail spine transfer. they're fun as hell though man. you should learn em if you have a spine ramp around.

[carrollthirteen]

...and I dunno where I got "180" from. I was probably drunk.

[anteaterattack]

NOTE no cordless drills NO nail guns..... shit

[WillieD7]

It's weird how this was like the "biggest ramp ever" at the time. I wish people would start building 80's vert ramps again. Thirteen footers are too scary for me.

[allsystemsghost]

here here!

[him89]

I wish people built vert ramps period, I live in NW Ohio and theres not a vert ramp any where within 2 hours of driving.

[Liveandletskate666]

@him89  are you sure? i'm not from northwestern ohio, but I could have sworn there was a vert ramp in toledo. maybe sandusky? perhaps i'm mistaken, but I don't think you're too far from one.

[him89]

@Liveandletskate666 There was a mini ramp at Highland park in Toledo for a long time but they took it down when they built the new park, which as concrete parks go is pathetic.

[mattnsim]

hows that one foot hand plant at 3:49!! so nice.

[peetarararar]

Yeah, this was featured in "The Search For Animal Chin." It's a GREAT movie.
