VICE’s Taji Ameen revisits his skate past
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2022
- Over the past few years, Taji’s work with VICE and the upper echelons of New York Media took him away from his skateboarding past a little bit. We wanted to have him reconnect with skating and reminisce on those early days, so we met up with him and his old friend Billy to skate, catch up, and freestyle a little bit.

I didn’t think taji could get any cooler
He can't 🤣
yeah 😂
He legit has a video with harold hunter. fucking legend
Taji is 100 times cooler than all of his haters combined.
Having your mom make you send zoo york a thank you card is so funny
I think his mum made him use every kind of WordArt text available at the time, to make sure that he really showed his appreciation lol.
its sweet!
Fucking no way, reading the thumbnail I thought maybe he skated casually a bit, but not like he went this far and was in video parts, sick man
Fr doe i never thought about that vx footy and the zoo york video
Taji is mad legit. I needed this to be an hour long
he did an interview with Lee Smith for an hour! th-cam.com/video/2KfG7qvsXws/w-d-xo.html
never stop doing this jenkem
literally more of this, the wayside of the industry. the small group of folks that have a dope perspective of tapping the ceiling but not quite breaking through. sick
Good vocabulary
@@jimmyhill5265 thanks jimmy
Taji’s skating gets a five star review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
dude, this needs to be longer! taji just scored some cool points after this one. i had no clue he was actually semi-coordinated in anything let alone skating.
Taji just became legend status in my book
man its wild seeing dudes like Rohan and Rob Campbell still out on the streets... its gotta be at least 25 years for both of em
Skated with him a few times when he would visit family in Va. Really down to earth even when he was very young.
Much love to Billy Rohan, looks like he's doing better these days 💚💚
Jenkem content makes me feel good
This was very insightful and heartwarming! ❤️🔥
YES! Always wanted to see more of Taji's skating
Taji literally is top ten human beings alive. Wow man.
Such an idol and an icon. No joke
To be so good and sincere is not easy. Love you taji
Yooo this is amazing history! I never knew this about him and the footage with hunter is awesome! His footage was actually super good too. Keep up the good work!! The one with Mark Normad was awesome too
Taji seems mad chill. Hyped on Billy's return to the city, the energy is popping when he's around!!
Had no idea this guy skated, loved his content with VICE. Makes me love him way more now I know he is a skater!!
On another note, how come you didn't know he skated?
When Harold asked to sign his shirt is so sick haha
taji is legit
one of the best interviews!! loved it
Damn I had no idea Taji skated. That’s sick!! I already loved him on his 1 star reviews show but to know he skates and surfs is awesome!
wtf this is so cool holy shit, been a fan of his reporting for so long and to see his connection to zoo york is awesome!!
Billy looks great man, glad he’s still ripping
Damn what an unexpected awesome fuckin great video!!! Taji & Rpohan..like WTF!! Thx Jenkem

Taji you the man i already watched your mini docs now im stoked you skate and surf like all the cool weirdos should
Had no idea Taji had such deep roots in the skateboarding world. sick!!!
Really enjoyed this one
Holy shit taji I had no idea you actually get down still!!! Keep pushin 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Ok. Finally someone who remembers the OG Zoo York boards and how concave and hard AF they were. I loved them. And if you ever get an FA board I STG they are so similar to those old Zoo boards! Not exactly the same but very reminiscent of them.
good to know. zoo york was a fav back in the day
thank you jenkem once again
This was really cool. I love this dude
Glad Billy is doing well. Happy GSD!!
Taji really deserves his own show
thank you jenkem

Ha used to watch this dudes one star reviews, I didn't know but could tell he was one of us. Wish you guys would've got him to put together a quick like two minute street part- dude still has tricks.
I remember watching the sean powers video and just hearing his voice say "oh my god" and instantly knowing who it is
That was rad. He had crazy good style & power for a little kid.
Alot of people didn't know this about taji but yeah he was a a awesome skater I remember seeing is skate videos way back in the day..
When you think, Taj couldn't be any cooler

Dude sick! Vice is my favorite comedy channel

HOLY SHIT I KNEW I RECOGNIZED HIM! i thought the name sounded familiar, i remember him growing up in skate parts in zoo york vids
Now I understand why Taji mentioned making a nudist skate camp in that one video! I know he’ll keep moving toward it and I’m looking forward to seeing it come to fruition!!!
WE LOVE TAJI
