You guys are still at it, I first met you guys in Houston in 85 or 86. When I got sponsored in 88 I met you guys again in CA. 2013 in CA and Mark and Natas remembered me.
yeah rodney was the one who really paved the way for street, he invented all the tricks needed for street skating to work. mark and natas could be said to the be the people who pushed street skating out and made it a big thing though.
How nice to see. 180 to switch 180 is such a great looking combo. Nostalgia is so intoxicating especially in skateboarding. Which for such a short time has a very rich history.
My last board was a Guerro with a dagger in flames and a white background. We called ourselves the Boneheads...about seven of us. We lived in misawa, Japan and skated EVERY day. Those were some of the best years of my life. THANKS skate board GODS
I didn't think Natas Kaupas skated anymore. He was ascending walls in 1987. At some point I assumed he pulled his legs up defying gravity and just cruised around like a floating human being. Watch this video carefully. I'm not sure, but I think he might be slightly levitating.
Dude it's so sick that you're using a Adeodat Warfield soundtrack!! I've been following Pyramid Country for a while now and its so crazy that his music got used for a Gonz interview. This video was awesome Monster Children! Thank you
I used to be a bouncer at a shi-shi club in NYC. I met so many famous people. I didn't give a what. But I would seriously shit to be in the same room as these two at the same time. I could feel the fucking energy coming through my damn cell phone. I can't imagine what it was like. Like, just straight up butterfly belly the whole time. Damn.
first board, 1988 the SMA natas, graphic that I haven't been able to find ever again. It was a purple deck with the puma. But I can't seem to find the exact match.
Do you guys have any clips of them talking about skating together and pioneering some of the first boardslides on handrails etc? This clip was amazing to see them both together but it was only 5 minutes and very underwhelming.
Natas and Gonz are the two guys at that time to learn from ..the originals. I don't really remember anyone caring that Mullen was doing flip tricks damn near standing still . street had very little to do with flipy flips at that time . More skating the street etc . Glad Mullen did his thing , street is much more then kickflips .
Wow natas!?! spent three weeks of hard earned allowance money for one of his boards. mom found it in my room and hit the roof. "Get it out of my house this instant!" "Are you a PUNKER now!?!" Does (natas) the guy even touch a board anymore?
Are lapel mic's really not bothered much by having a shirt over it? IDK y, but that's surprising to me. It seems as if you'd get a lot of rubbing sounds, but you don't hear any.
Ya Alva was def. making boards in the garage. I got my first 'real' board for Christmas (Alva fish) and I snapped it two days later- and no, it wasn't the pork tacos. No love lost. :)
Two skaters on the mt Rushmore of skating. Straight up legends. Always tired of hearing about tony hawk. He Wasn't truly gnarly. I'll take the Jason jesse's, Gonz, Team H street etc.
actually thought I was going to see a genuine meeting of two greats but 30 seconds in I realized it was just another skate media promotion. At least Natas seemed uncomfortable.
When you realize that you are smiling the same way Natas is smiling because Gonz fills the space with happiness.
That's just Natas.
Natas and gonz are happy free souls
@@atomsk1972 I second that
The gonz is like the cure for depression lol nice to see someone who feels the same
Lisa Smith freakin legends since my childhood. 😎🤘
Natas so happy,what a guy. To skate with these two for a day...........Magical.
Natas Was miles above what anybody else was doing at the time. The guy was like a meteorite hitting the scene.
make no mistake...Gonz was right there ! I saw it in person many times !
You guys are still at it, I first met you guys in Houston in 85 or 86. When I got sponsored in 88 I met you guys again in CA. 2013 in CA and Mark and Natas remembered me.
The two guys who invented street skating... all you young skaters owe everything to these two
True bro two of the most innovative people in the history of skating..what memories,I'm 47 and still get it in.
You forgot Daewon and Rodney
yeah rodney was the one who really paved the way for street, he invented all the tricks needed for street skating to work. mark and natas could be said to the be the people who pushed street skating out and made it a big thing though.
He didn't it was in context
I’m late af but don’t forget Tommy Guerrero
How nice to see. 180 to switch 180 is such a great looking combo. Nostalgia is so intoxicating especially in skateboarding. Which for such a short time has a very rich history.
So awesome to see these two street legends... Natas was one of the most inspiring skaters to me and to me one of the most stylish skateboarders ever.
Idols of mine! Im 45 and love this stuff! This truly was the heyday of skating.
Natas has always been my fave. One of the most humble skaters ever!
This should have been a 6 hour conversation this is rad.
Living legends.
Delamthedestroyer yeah
Two living Legends right there young folks...🤘😜🍻
Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant
Mark and Natas the two living legends wow , amazing thanks for sharing
My last board was a Guerro with a dagger in flames and a white background. We called ourselves the Boneheads...about seven of us. We lived in misawa, Japan and skated EVERY day. Those were some of the best years of my life. THANKS skate board GODS
Gonz, Jason Lee, guy mariano, johnson from blind. Big transition to what street skating is about.
einc70 yeah video days was a game changer imo
2 of THE BEST ever! Love seeing them together
Kinda wanted to see natas skate
Me too good call more Natasha
I love that Mark still has the childlike spirit and has fun all the time !
You guys lived my dream life. 🙏🏼 that’s so fucken awesome. Nice to meet ya 🤝
It’s two living legends together, I would love to just be there and listen to them talk about the past.
Variflex... now thats a name that i have not heard for a long time. I still have one of their trucks.
I loved the Gullwing trucks
Variflex connections, C32's and a C&D flat deck was my first set up, it was about a year before the Bevel, and concave showed up.
I didn't think Natas Kaupas skated anymore. He was ascending walls in 1987. At some point I assumed he pulled his legs up defying gravity and just cruised around like a floating human being. Watch this video carefully. I'm not sure, but I think he might be slightly levitating.

So sweet to see these two still chopping it up!!! One!!
Legends!
When Gonzo smiles, I smile..
0:33 I’m younger then Gonz and I can’t do most of the shit he does physically. Amazing
He has always done his own brand of parkour. He's literally like a cat when it comes to balance and almost always lands on his feet !
These guys are amazing I still skate a natas board at 44
where do you buy them?
thoyo you can get a few on Santa Monica Airlines website ✌️
Smallest water bottle I´ve ever seen.
That's a fair observation. What's the point of storing and selling water in complex objects?
Buy a bigger bottle of water Mark
Those are normal now dude
My first board was a variflex
I used to be a bouncer at a shi-shi club in NYC. I met so many famous people. I didn't give a what. But I would seriously shit to be in the same room as these two at the same time. I could feel the fucking energy coming through my damn cell phone. I can't imagine what it was like. Like, just straight up butterfly belly the whole time. Damn.
Phelphs fat-shaming The Gonz? HA! Sometimes in life you have to stop and smell the pork tacos.
Hidden gem
legends
Natas has been my favorite skater since 88, fuck man, time flies , now go skate!!
first board, 1988 the SMA natas, graphic that I haven't been able to find ever again. It was a purple deck with the puma. But I can't seem to find the exact match.
Wow... Variflex. There's a nostalgia bomb I wasn't expecting today.
Legends.

Wow natas!?! spent three weeks of hard earned allowance money for one of his boards. mom found it in my room and hit the roof. "Get it out of my house this instant!" "Are you a PUNKER now!?!" Does (natas) the guy even touch a board anymore?
Just a surfboard, from what I heard.
Anyone know the adeodat warfield song title?
Are lapel mic's really not bothered much by having a shirt over it?
IDK y, but that's surprising to me. It seems as if you'd get a lot of rubbing sounds, but you don't hear any.
Could we buy some of the photos of the exibition? If someone know...and how...thanks a lot you all..
Gonz looks like a character straight from Curb Your Enthusiasm
Ya Alva was def. making boards in the garage. I got my first 'real' board for Christmas (Alva fish) and I snapped it two days later- and no, it wasn't the pork tacos. No love lost. :)
What's up with the Natas switch handshake?
When all you needed was a skateboard and you fit in.
natas was my insperation
I had both of their decks but i had very different results haha
Has Natas ever..not had a huge smile?
pls name of the song at the very end of the video?
much appreciated.
........!!!!!
🤙🤙🤙
I have been using my old Natas SMA board to help me move heavy shit for the last 30 years. Im such an idiot!!
I can´t believe : 4 dislikes???..Outsiders.
Natas greatest Street skater ever but he looks like the guy Bruce Willis killed in Die Hard
mark skating SHAKE JUNT!
👍👍🤙
i typed in satan backwards and this is where i ended up, real shit
baronesssssssssssssss!!!!!!
You know it!!
I don't have time to look it up but a sufer on vans looks just like Natas
Two skaters on the mt Rushmore of skating. Straight up legends. Always tired of hearing about tony hawk. He Wasn't truly gnarly. I'll take the Jason jesse's, Gonz, Team H street etc.
at pinche taqueria
I didn't know Woody Harrelson was that good at skating !
"its so stupid to, like say anything at all"
I was eating 4 pork tacos a day in New York..haha
Thought it was Jaws at first glance
Natas speak lithuanian
And how did natas' mother not realize that she named her son Satan backwards lol pretty cool though
Because it's a fairly common Lithuanian name
Natas is Jaws biological father.
thats hysterical
idk anyone who can run sideways on a wall
Santa Monica Airlines forever.
If was embarrassing as fuck if you owned a Variflex in the 80s
"its so stupid to like... to say anything at all because whatever you say is like... stupid." also, pinche taqueria? did i hear that right?
actually thought I was going to see a genuine meeting of two greats but 30 seconds in I realized it was just another skate media promotion. At least Natas seemed uncomfortable.
Lol Gonzaga speaks like Kermit The Frog
Gonz spelled backwards Is Mongo...
Lanpeaddy spelled backwards is O'nerd. Eat shit you nerd paddy fuck.
Charles Williams You going to be all right cupcake?
If Natas is Satan than who is Gonz?
Znog of course.
