This is the single greatest contest run in the history of skateboarding...

This is the type of attitude that modern skateboarding lacks....Its just become another sport to most kids... commercial...no soul, no artistry. And yes I am an old grumpy cuss who thinks yester-years where better than the modern age *grumble grumble*
PS oh yeah, and classic Goth music is great, but the new EMO stuff sucks.

@hater2nd more like kids learn kickflip before they even learn how to ride their board.....
Skateboarding has lost almost all personality since then. Younger kids that skate are mostly jock mentality now. I'm only saying that because some of these comments are really fucking ignorant. Learn your history, just because you learned to kickflip before you could ollie doesn't mean you have style. I wish skateboarding was still in touch with art.

I was in college in the 1983 at Texas A&M and my roommate and I were heading home to San Antonio for the weekend. We stopped to skate in the empty swimming pool of an abandoned hotel in San Marcos, Texas. We were skating for a good hour and this truck pulls up pulling a trailer that says "Thraser" on it. Three guys get out. One guy is a photographer and two guys are skaters. They come and ask us if it is ok if they skate with us. Of course we say sure. It was Neil Blender and Jeff Phillips.
