flip was THE TEAM back in the day. Geoff, Tom, Arto, Rune, Pj, Ali, Bastien Mark. All the biggest hitters. The golden era to me. Those videos changed skateboarding.
True. But "Stéphane Larance"! and Jean Tongo before him. in any case the Paris area has a very big black population, and there were always black dudes skating. France is not segregated like the US and never has been.
he was a more explosive PJ Ladd. Not to say he was better but both had very similar styles in how they did their tricks but Ladd was better switch while Bastien did bigger tricks but these were the two I idolized back in my skate days lol
It was! But the part he mentioned right in the first minutes "Lordz- they don't give a fuck about us" That Video is probably the best european Video til
@@xmisterblackhatx Baker 2G was fire. The plan for the day was usually on the school bus looking at skate mags, video after school and then skate until it's late.
I've always had mad respect for Bastien but this interview multiplied my respect for 10x. This was a very inspirational interview. What a stand-up dude.
Just watched Bastiens "lost part". Gave me the chills. The hairs on my arms are standing up. Took me back to when I was 12 or 13 years old watching sorry for the first time. One of the best..
Bastien is one of the greatest of all time, and hearing him speak just reinforces that. He’s so down to earth and has such a good perspective on everything. This is one of the best episodes ever
So kickflip pretzels are cool but no complys suck? Just bc he didn't put them in his parts doesn't mean he didn't do them. His parts were mostly bangers and not alot of lines or having fun. He's from the generation of hammers
@@drewtatasciore7086 yeah but they're all no nonsense lines. Like a trick before a handrail not him just goofing off on the board. Outside of the kickflip pretzel it's all business. No slo-mo, no dork tricks. I'm just saying in 99-00 people didn't have wallrides, no complies or polejams in parts like they do now but it doesn't mean they didn't do them it just want cool at the time to show them in parts
meet that guy in south of france was slightly younger than me he was not even famous yet. i would have never thought he would have get such a big part in the flip video it was truly amazing to see that. definitly one of the best back then
So many parts of this made me smile. Love his honesty and the history. Thank you, Nine Club . Questions were on point. I saw him compete at one of those big Euro contests just after the Sorry video release and at that point in time, he was unstoppable. Early to mid 2000's, he was the best contest skater in the world. It's weird to be proud of someone you don't really know, but I am of this dude. Such a ruler. All the best for the future Bastien. Always hyped to see something from you.
Chris Wood my pleasure entirely bro, do you still get to hang with aussie crew? Jake, Chima, Shane Azar and those boys? That video made me wanna ditch it all and fly to australia haha
Starting my week of SOOOO good with this episode. Love bastien. Love his story. Love how he didn't disappear, wasn't on drugs. Just wanted to get home for a while. Such an amazing human! I need a nine club hoodie after this episode!
One of the best episodes so far. So doped that I started skating in the era when Sorry, DC, This is skateboarding, Yeah Right and etc. Came out. Dude, that Flip team was the sickest!
a couple of minutes into this podcast and I can say that you can sense when the invited people are really open or not. Bastien seems to be part of these guys who just have somewhat of an aura of openness around them. MUCH RESPECT for everyone making this podcast.
So sick to have a Bastien ep, I've been waiting for this since I started watching the club! Awesome story of his career & great to hear it from him & not just rumors. Another great ep, you guys killed it as always. All love to the club!
Legend. I remember seeing Sorry and I felt like giving up. Used to watch Bastien's part every day, getting super amped up from the music. Man, it was the coolest video part ever made to me, back then. Love you Bastien! Thank you so much for your hard work.
love these podcasts. Being able to pause go back and watch the actual contest or video parts he talks and then come back to the podcast makes this very enjoyable. reliving my teen years.
Damn. That was the best episode. Bastien was my favorite skater growing up, and I definitely had several pairs of his vans. After this I am so stoked for him! He is such a well spoken and inspirational guy. I loved hearing his process of dealing with negativity, focus and setting goals as well. Living legend for sure! I can’t wait to see more from him. 🙏
One of the Best episodes yet ! Bastien is just the kindest person and an amazing skateboarder ! So hyped to more of him in the future. Flip sorry, really set the mind of skateboarding for me
Inspired by this interview. Ima get my a** up off my seat now. But for real Bastien video part in the Flip videos make a huge impact on me. I am glad to see him grow up to be a respected and great individual.
watched sorry religiously everyday as a kid. the way they portrayed skate culture to me back then is what i still hold on to today when i think about it. fuckin best times of my life
that was an awesome episode. I really respect his decision to leave Huntington for Europe. Seems Bastien was always motivated by new experiences and doing the shit that was best for him. admirable dude with a great story // always loved the flip videos. Hearing what he said about Geoff’s view of fear was really interesting too.
Definitely one of my top 5 Nine Clubs so far. Bastiens the shit. Gotta get Geoff on!! And Arto of course. Love you guys. Thank you so much for doing what you’re doing.
Bro, Im loving these videos man. Hearing Bastien talk about his life and the things leading up to Flip is so awesome! And hes on Primitive now!?!? I finally got a Primitive Dbz varsity jacket. It means that much more now :D
Stoked on this interview. I'm the same age as him so I always got hyped on his parts growing up. Wish I could of got half the skills hes got though haha.
Cool episode. Never really had a chance to hear his story but always admired his skating. What a packed life he had at such a young age. It has certainly made him into a well rounded guy in his later years.
I remembered when Sorry came out. It was one of , if not the biggest skate video at that time. Johnny Rotten announcing the skaters, classic. Everybody I knew watched that video religiously before skating, and Really Sorry. Bastiens part was right up there with every big pro during that time.
Wow, first Nine Club I watched all the way through. Being a little older now it's incredible to relate to these guys a little more as grown adults. Chris is such a Bastien fan boy it's great. Not that I wouldn't be also haha.
first, was fully hoping/expecting a fat albert intro. second, bastiens part in sorry really had an influence on me. he does a kick flip nose grind back 180 on a table i think.. just how fun and good he made it look, ill never forget it.
I still think Bastien is the most underrated skater. I remember it took me years to understand how gnarly his sorry part wsa, despite watching it probably over 100 times. He was so far ahead of the game
One of my favorite episodes I've seen so far, though not as much mention of the Switch flip switch Manny as I would have liked. Bastien seems like an awesome dude. I'm watching all of the shows in order and it's taking me forever to get caught up lol
awesome video guys, remember being blown away by Bastien whilst visiting Lyon/Grenoble back in 2002, such a nice down to earth guy too, Man i was 19 then where has the time gone! :/
You guys should really check that sport he is talking about 7:30, Handball. Quite physical, ruff, body check is normal thing. Yes German natinal league is the strongest, but there are also great Spanish, Croatian, Serbina, Danish, French, Russian etc, clubs. Anyway in late years French national team dominate World and European Cups. Those who love Hockey or American Football would love it!!! Thanks Nine Club, and Bastien for the great show.
Also there is a lot of "nastyness", exp elbow punching in stomach while you trying to escape your guard, or some (expirienced) aikido grab on my fingers. But it is fast, lots of goals (points), lots of changing in scores. I watched team came back after being in -10, and just in two minutes, their goalkeeper defends few shots, and they simply demolish the other team.
@Dino Olujic Nego, nego. Jel gledas redovno, i imas li omiljenu emisiju. meni je ubjedljivo najbolja bila sa Jason Dill-om, njega bi mogao 5 sati bez prestanka gledati.
@Damir Plicanic Ponediljak mi je vrh zbog ovoga..gledan gotovu svaku epizodu ..ako ne isti dan ..onda u sljedeca dan - dva na djelove ..od Dill je defitivno jedna od najboljih ..al nemogu se odlucit za najbolju ..a koliko jos ima legendi sta nisu bili na podcast-u ..al ponekad se doslovno osjecam da san zajedno s njima u prostoriji i zajebajemo se ..:)
flip was THE TEAM back in the day. Geoff, Tom, Arto, Rune, Pj, Ali, Bastien Mark. All the biggest hitters. The golden era to me. Those videos changed skateboarding.
+ they tried to get Jeremy Wray !
let's go get some cokes
for real man
Flip still is the team..
yeh they really dominate the game back then like they said overload when aprt came out i couldnt beleive what i was watching
I just got back from Paris and it was full of young black men skating, thanks for the impact you had on skating over there Bastien! Legend.
Stephan Lawrence was first
True. But "Stéphane Larance"! and Jean Tongo before him. in any case the Paris area has a very big black population, and there were always black dudes skating. France is not segregated like the US and never has been.
Best episode ever in my opinion. This guy has a good head on his shoulders
i agree with you :P
Smart dude
I really didn’t think Bastien would be like this. Proper humble and a ridiculously sick skateboarder!
Bastien is one of the G.O.A.Ts
No question. I remember he used to have an etnies model that kind of looked like the accel, with the huge nose, dope shoe.
fuck yeah man
@@coryander4918 accels was the janoskis of the late 90s early 2000s
Stance? What’s that 😂. Only ever skated with a couple people like that
he was a more explosive PJ Ladd. Not to say he was better but both had very similar styles in how they did their tricks but Ladd was better switch while Bastien did bigger tricks but these were the two I idolized back in my skate days lol
Bastien is pure class! He is so well spoken and positive! This is one of the best Nine Clubs yet!
Not to mention English isn't his native tongue, as a Frenchman. What a legend, gotta respect the bilingual talent!
So hyped for this. Bastien's part in Sorry was amazing. That video was huge amongst my friend group when it came out!
It was! But the part he mentioned right in the first minutes "Lordz- they don't give a fuck about us" That Video is probably the best european Video til
We used to meet up at my house after school and watch Menikmati or Sorry or Baker2g then go shred. The good ol' days.
@@felden617 Agreed, it just made me reminisce about being a kid watching a vid & then skating all day.
@@xmisterblackhatx Baker 2G was fire. The plan for the day was usually on the school bus looking at skate mags, video after school and then skate until it's late.
Yeah it was but shittt his footy from Tampa 2004...
I've always had mad respect for Bastien but this interview multiplied my respect for 10x. This was a very inspirational interview. What a stand-up dude.
Just watched Bastiens "lost part".
Gave me the chills. The hairs on my arms are standing up. Took me back to when I was 12 or 13 years old watching sorry for the first time.
One of the best..
Bastien is one of the greatest of all time, and hearing him speak just reinforces that. He’s so down to earth and has such a good perspective on everything. This is one of the best episodes ever
One of the greatest to ever do it,100% timeless skateboarder that doesn’t need no complys and put on style
So kickflip pretzels are cool but no complys suck? Just bc he didn't put them in his parts doesn't mean he didn't do them. His parts were mostly bangers and not alot of lines or having fun. He's from the generation of hammers
def filmed multiple lines...... even in sorry
@@drewtatasciore7086 yeah but they're all no nonsense lines. Like a trick before a handrail not him just goofing off on the board. Outside of the kickflip pretzel it's all business. No slo-mo, no dork tricks.

yep
@@mosmith3026 he was definitely having fun, gnarly stuff is fun aswell

Chris Wood yo are you the Chris Wood from Volcom Let's Live??
Yeeeep, that's me.
Chris Wood i just watched that vid again a few weeks ago, yer part is sick man so solid. 👊🏻
Thank you brother!
Chris Wood my pleasure entirely bro, do you still get to hang with aussie crew? Jake, Chima, Shane Azar and those boys? That video made me wanna ditch it all and fly to australia haha
This is the best interview I have seen in years, and I saw it 2 years late. Thank you guys!
Starting my week of SOOOO good with this episode. Love bastien. Love his story. Love how he didn't disappear, wasn't on drugs. Just wanted to get home for a while. Such an amazing human! I need a nine club hoodie after this episode!

Omg finally he’s so under rated no one gives him his dews this dude was doing the tricks people do nowadays like 15 years ago
FULL CAB FLIP GOD
Sliced Bread cab flip. A cab is already full and wholesome. When it isn’t then it s marked by the word half ;)
Ugh
"They don't give a fuck about us ! " dvd in background. Wowww the Nine Club squad knows how to retrieve some good artefact from the past !
Bastien talks about skating in a way like no other skater. True passion. Had a big goofy smile on my face this whole episode.
Ohh man this was on of these episodes you HOPED for but never came and then, BOOM...BASTIEN!!!
The switch flip manny revolving lamp!?!?!? omg
One of the best episodes so far. So doped that I started skating in the era when Sorry, DC, This is skateboarding, Yeah Right and etc. Came out. Dude, that Flip team was the sickest!
So happy to hear what he had to say about his knee process very informative 🙏🏻
Looking forward to what he brings us!
a couple of minutes into this podcast and I can say that you can sense when the invited people are really open or not. Bastien seems to be part of these guys who just have somewhat of an aura of openness around them. MUCH RESPECT for everyone making this podcast.
So sick to have a Bastien ep, I've been waiting for this since I started watching the club! Awesome story of his career & great to hear it from him & not just rumors. Another great ep, you guys killed it as always. All love to the club!
Alright. That's what's up. Stoked to hear this. Dudes been one of favorites since the Flip days. First pro model shoe was the Salabanzi Vans
Nick Wagner that was my first pro shoe also.

@@dariusblue5946 what do you mean?
They did an Epicly later'd on the Menace team had Pupecki, fabian, Lee smith all had interviews Kareem declined all requests for an i interview?????
This has been a huge inspiration. Always loved this guys skating and now a fan of his mentality.
Legend. I remember seeing Sorry and I felt like giving up. Used to watch Bastien's part every day, getting super amped up from the music. Man, it was the coolest video part ever made to me, back then. Love you Bastien! Thank you so much for your hard work.

Inspired by this interview. Ima get my a** up off my seat now. But for real Bastien video part in the Flip videos make a huge impact on me. I am glad to see him grow up to be a respected and great individual.
I named my son after this guy. Huge fan!
Bastien is 1 of my all time faves. Sorry and Really Sorry are so legendary, so ahead of the time
Merci pour ce spécial guest ! Bastien Salabanzi 🇫🇷 :) next Nine Club Eric Koston !

Love this dudes style so much! One of the best. Great stuff Nine Club.
Cool episode.
Never really had a chance to hear his story but always admired his skating.
What a packed life he had at such a young age.
It has certainly made him into a well rounded guy in his later years.
Get the GEOFF! This was amazing, I love French mentality and life approach.
Is here anybody named Jeff?
Jeff: yes
Geoff: yeos
thank you Nine Club! Greetings from Dubai!
Had to replay the part where he was talking about mentality, it's so useful
I remembered when Sorry came out. It was one of , if not the biggest skate video at that time. Johnny Rotten announcing the skaters, classic. Everybody I knew watched that video religiously before skating, and Really Sorry. Bastiens part was right up there with every big pro during that time.
Woah, one of my favourite nine club. Super well spoken.
Continue à inspirer Bastien!
Loving the rotating lampshade!
At last!!! Thank you so much! Such a bastien fan!
Wow, first Nine Club I watched all the way through. Being a little older now it's incredible to relate to these guys a little more as grown adults. Chris is such a Bastien fan boy it's great. Not that I wouldn't be also haha.
This was such a great episode!! We need more Europe legends on here
One of the best episodes so far.
first, was fully hoping/expecting a fat albert intro. second, bastiens part in sorry really had an influence on me. he does a kick flip nose grind back 180 on a table i think.. just how fun and good he made it look, ill never forget it.

Always loved this man. Growing up he was one of my all time favorites. I really wish this man would have gotten more from skateboarding
One of a the best episode ! Thnx guys good energy right here !
Hell yeah his part in Really sorry was amazing. Definitely one of my favorite skaters!
He was like 'psheww' I got this, and then he hit the ground like potato bag
I remember Bastien having a b/s smith on marble ledge in Thrasher? over 20+ yrs ago.... Legend
Bastien! From my favorite skate team of all time. Thank you 9 club.
Sooo psyched about this. defs one of the best of all time!!
Holy shizzle! All-time favourite under the Mullen man. Inspiring black skater and master trickster. Thank you guys
One of my favorite episodes I've seen so far, though not as much mention of the Switch flip switch Manny as I would have liked.
Bastien seems like an awesome dude.
I'm watching all of the shows in order and it's taking me forever to get caught up lol
i'm glad i wasn't the only one who slept with his first skateboard 🙏 #firstlove🖤
I absolutely killed it on every board i slept with.
Bastien seems like a dude you can trust with everything, what a rad dude
awesome video guys, remember being blown away by Bastien whilst visiting Lyon/Grenoble back in 2002, such a nice down to earth guy too, Man i was 19 then where has the time gone! :/
Good job guys, love the show. Nice and Smooth conversation 👍🏽

Best episode.. Legend.. I was hoping Kelly or someone would of asked him about his lost part that came out on thrasher.. So, ahead of its time..
Met him live yeaaaars ago in Helsinki (2001 or something like that?) and he was super nice, stoked to watch this episode!!
I remember having his ReallySorry part on my old PC, 160p quality probably but I know it by heart! One of the best to ever do it! Cheers!!!
What a great, great interview... thank you for this.
Bastien is LEGEND. inspiring talk. thanks heaps guys
Love that he talked about his board size, 9club ask everyone their current board size and pst board size, we all are interested!!!
