Yeah right since the day I bought it was one of the best. Great skate trip with friends, bought the vhs, watched it i was just blown away and finally got laid. Owen Wilsons sketch was definitely a wtf moment and took me a minute to realize it was koston. Eric was my favorite at the time but that video is so staked with great parts and as I kid I was so motivated to go skate. Yeah right was added to menikmati and the reason that played daily that summer.
Hell yea! That's some good nostalgia right there! I remeber when it came out seeing Koston's ender and having to rewind it and rewatch it multiple times cause a tre flip noseblunt wasn't possible on a handrail.
@@ShredzShop Kostons noseslide on that curved rail had me rewinding that part too. Idk if there's enough material for a full video but it would be great if you did x things you didn't know about skate films
My buddy Kyle passed away last year from muscular dystrophy, and had been in a wheelchair the entire time I knew him. Never stopped him from telling me all about the things he used to do when he could still skate, and he always made a point of telling me that he used to skate Girl boards. I just got into skating this year, and figured the it was only right if I went with Girl for my first deck, as an homage. Feels like I’m with him every time I ride
My favorite thing about Girl is me and my friends sneaking out very late at night and we meet at my one friends house who own the Yeah Right video. We will always skip to the magic skateboard scene to get pumped and then we would head out to hit the classic small town street spots. Sometimes not coming home until the sun start coming up right before we had to go to school. Seriously some of the best times in my life to when I see clips from Yeah Right I get kind of emotional.
Fun story about Girl. My high-school wood shops teacher built us a steam box and we started making our own skateboards as projects. I carved out a mold of the Colin McKay deck I was riding at the time because I loved the shape. We laminated pieces of Maple together, put them in the steam box for a few hours, then clamped them to my mold so they kept the shape. Cut them out on a bandsaw, routered them. It was awesome when you were a poor high schooler to have free decks. I kept one unridden that I painted the RDS logo on.
Yea I was at a skate shop a couple weeks ago and found a numbers shirt and ask the guy about the brand and he said he heard it’s not doing too good sucks for Koston and guy I’m still mad that fourstar went under too this day
I’m 36 and I haven’t skated since I was 19. Did a lot of research finding a board I liked. Finally landed on a girl board. Guess you can say what’s already been said. I skate like a girl. Much love to the brand, teammates and all the hard work it takes to get to where they are. May we all skate like GIRLS.
You nailed it. Girl took out World Industries. It is an interesting park skateboard history because girl did to World what World did to the big 5 of the 80s. Girl has always had a cool vibe. Even when I wasn't skating I knew who Girl was. So many legends have skated for Girl. Rick Mccrank has done some cool TV shows. His Abandon show was great. (Mark Johnson's part was by far the best part in Fully Flared. Arguably the best part ever.) Love all the work you put into these.
The Girl chocolate demo at manning skate park in perth on election day 2004 is still the best demo of alltime with BA MJ Devine Mike Carroll and koston all absolutely killing the park for a solid two hours. Footage can be seen on the " what tour " vid. Carroll was snapping boards and RUNNING to the van to get another. A lot of people still think this was the best day perth skating ever had. And respect for being good blokes that counts too.
@subcomandante marcos it really was a special day. Koston slammed a beer in the middle not cause he's pissdrunk but because he was so hot and sweaty from rolling hard for an hour. Seeing Brian Anderson live was super impressive. Speed power and Grace. People chanting " all day everyday Calloway! While Devine was getting busy. The Girl team were here for a few weeks and left a really good impression. Lots of people were riding girl boards cause they were amped on seeing them live.
A bit late I guess haha but I tried looking for the video on TH-cam and couldn't find it. I tried by searching "girl skateboard what tour" "what tour video skate" and similars. Also tried looking for manning park girl but only found a 2 minute video. Maybe I'm stupid hehe but I really want to watch it. Could you point to somewhere I can watch the video, or more keywords so I can search for it. I would really appreciate your help on finding the video! I'll keep trying and update if I find it. Sk8&love Edit: found it!! th-cam.com/video/pcmEpaDtYFI/w-d-xo.html
Back in high school in 1995 I had a copy of goldfish. I walked by an empty classroom at lunchtime and noticed the AV cart, you know with the old CRT strapped down with a VHS player all ready for the next class who was going to watch some educational video. So I popped in Goldfish and a few friends and I started watching. People were walking by and wondering what we were doing in there and started to watch, then the keeners started filing in ahead of the bell, soon there was like 15 or 20 kids watching the vid and everyone was digging the skating and the music. Even the vice principal who was teaching the next class was into it and let us watch for a few more minutes before kicking us out.
The chocolate tour. Damn I'm old. I remember the chocolate tour video was when I first saw Stevie Williams too. Such a good video! Rest in peace Keenan!
my first memory was seeing mike carroll in some random best of 411 vhs tape. he blew me away and when i saw under his board, i had to get a girl deck. been riding girls decks since, that was in 1998. this was a great video, keep up the good work. peace.
this is absolutely amazing!! girl has been a favourite for me since I don't know when. thanks for this!! yesterday at the and of my 4 day skate camp for kids, I gave a skated girl board of mine to a little girl, who hopefully will start to love skateboarding as much as I do :)
Watching yeah right for the first time with all my little buddies screaming at the tv, particularly crankers part introducing my young brain to that le tigre song really blew my mind as a kid. Every time I hear it to this day it hits me in the feels!
4:11 on the bottom of the poster it says "send dollar or bong hit for stickers and info" and thats quite possibly the best marketing strategy ive ever seen
My favorite memory is a personal one. Back in 06 I went to a Girl/Chocolate demo in Valencia with some of my best friends and met some of the pros then afterwards we went to Sylmar High and skated all day. Just this time in my life I miss so much. Not a care in the world and no responsibilities. Just family, friends and my skateboard.
When i got my first paycheck at 14 yeats old, my mom took me to our local shop to buy my very first complete ever. I spent an hour picking out my dream set up, spitfires, indys, and the GIRL JOVONTAE TURNER DECK. Ive literally the last 36 hours trying to find that deck with no luck. I remember it was part or a 3 or 4 deck "set" where each deck had 3 colors like tail was green, middle yellot or something, and im pretty sure his nose was red. They all had a different bird drawn lkinda like woody wood pecker. Sorry for rambling, but i want to replace it or get all of tbem, but cant evem find a hint of a pick of them. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!LOL. THANX
Been sk8in since skate or die...and "yeah right" the video, actually got me raving on about it to friends. Didn't realize how much Spike Jones influenced my upbringing.
I always loved girl wheels! They always hold up well and feel super comfy for street in my style! Plus they made hello kitty wheels once, and they were super cute 😊!
I think my favorite thing about Girl Skateboards is the gear that they put out. I catch a lot of eyes with them, especially my Cory Kennedy "Buck Off" shirt that I have. But I wish that they would bring back 4 Star! I still have a lot of 4 Star gear, but it is a great brand with the ultimate logo! But Girl, Chocolate, 4 Star, and Lakai is all I wear and that bis what I buy for my kids and grandkids as well.
that’s still a thing, but since lots of riders are english speakers they get creative with it. Recently saw a McCrank deck with “Girl, eh?” as the title.
Favorite girl memory was actually the lakai video fully flared that had a bunch of the girl riders on that team in fully flared, all the special effects like beibels intro part and kostons intro part
Started skating around 94’ Goldfish was the first skate video I bought, was so hype off it the skating and the dope soundtrack! We watched that everyday, Pure nostalgia watching it now or hearing any track from it!
Hands down favorite is Guy skating to "Watermelon man"! This along with the whole Chocolate Funk era were the best! ....Wait did he ever even mention York!?!?!?
Rick Howard Skating the BC Rainforest! ONE Of MY All Time FAVORITE Video Parts! A Glimpse into the Genius of Spike! Love these Videos! 40 Year Old skater from TAMPA! Skatepark and Bro Bowl for 3 Decades. I Rode for the Skatepark/World Market(That GOES BACK!). Amateur Rider, also for A Little Board Company "Jersey Devil" and Independent Trucks (which WAS My BIGGEST. Outside the "FAMILY" Atmosphere of The Skatepark, Which was a "Home" almost. Riding and Getting "Fresh Set Ups", WAS ALL WE NEEDED!)... Tore my Left Hammy 100% and It's STILL Tweeked. BUT I STILL Ride! I Might NOT Shred Like I ONCE DID, But TIME Will catch US All and You Will UNDERSTAND! Until THEN.... SHRED TILL YER DEAD!
Yooo! That rainforest clip is sooo dope! Also really cool to watch Spike Jonze progress over the years in all the girl videos into this insanely talented Hollywood star he is today. Jersey Devil is a dope name for a board brand. Hope you heal up quick, just had ankle surgery after some torn tendons, heal up quick bud!
4:56. ! I was there, very surreal. Literally hundreds of pro skaters in philly, it was when they x games were in philly. When he landed tht, you would have thought you were at a football game. It was insanely loud af.
My fav Girl memory has always been Harsh Euro Barge and all their tour videos. It was sick to see everyone’s personalities and everyone hanging out. Felt more like friends than a company at that time.
Favourite memory, girl make the best decks. I would cycle through different brands, they would be a bit too heavy, or unresponsive, or snap too easy. Girl are just right.
Coming from KC Sean Malto is like one of the most famous people to come out of here so every little kid with a walmart board knows his name and I was no different back in the day. Girl will always hold a special place in my heart as one of the first brands I ever knew and that's because of that malto sw flip
Favorite memory from girl is brandon beibels yeah right part,i would watch it over and over and over haha i based my style off him and still do,i even dress like him haha and i mike mos part in fully flared is probably equally just as memorable to me,he opened my eyes to so many new tricks,the switch tre on flat to switch flip down a set was amazing
Shef vs WuTang or Intensity demo girl choc stereo earl ADI and maybe a few other ppl it was so sick and so fun , can almost remember that week like I just got home from hanging out getting crazy , and some amazing sessions the demo great freedom plaza after was so much fun , shit I remember middle of summer but perfect weather unbelievable
As a long islander Gino Iannucci part in yeah right was so monumental for me there was so many Long Island skate spots in that part and just a awesome skating also he had the guns and roses song so easy which fit so well he put Long Island on the map with that part big part of my childhood
The Hello kitty stuff has been really huge with collectors! Some of the original hello kitty boards were selling for $800 on eBay. I think the newer ones are much easier to get your hands on though.
No mention of Johannes Gamble creative genius behind many of the special effects in the films? Rick Howard's iconic part of him skating through the woods took place in Oakhurst CA. Some of the guys from the local shop helped lay down plywood. Unfortunately I was working at the skate shop that day and couldn't join then.
Not familiar with Johannes Gamble, he a friend of Spike? The Rick Howard story is amazing! A friend of mine interviewed him for a Canadian skate magazine and the whole time Rick kept telling him about this amazing new AM rider called Stewie McGlovern, and they wrote about him in the article... but Stewie didn't exist...
@@ShredzShop From what I knew Johannes worked directly for Girl. I could be completely wrong and he might have been a contractor. Not sure what his official title was there. He is a friend of mine from Fresno so when I was attending the UCLA admissions camp I crashed at Johannes' place. He took.me to the Girl warehouse where we got to skate the mini in the back with Mike Carroll and Rick. Of course my mini ramp skills were pretty nonexistent since I was a street skater but Rick and Mike cheered on my rock to fakie and tail stalls.
Carrols Fathers, "Chocolate" George, was a very prominent Hells Angels member through their haydays. His Mother is the one who did the illistrations for the clubs posters and such eventually leading to designing Chocolate graphics. Kind of explains the red & white theme, huhh
I bought a girl board off someone because my zero was locked up and idk why I just needed a skateboard for new years eve, someone sold me a sick girl semi pool deck with giant green Peralta wheels on some indies, love it. Can't wait to use it in the pool.
I strictly only put up Girl Choc. Fourstar ads on my bed room wall-Ealry 2000s. Jerons Mouse part, the best! And koston skating locally "the wedge hubba" - in AZ. In an old tour vid. Ummmm... that p-rod era on girl, was great too. BA skating to interpol. Mike york yeah right part was nuts too whoo. PACOOOO!!!!!
What's your favorite memory from Girl? A team rider, board graphic, video or skit? Let us know!
Yeah right since the day I bought it was one of the best. Great skate trip with friends, bought the vhs, watched it i was just blown away and finally got laid. Owen Wilsons sketch was definitely a wtf moment and took me a minute to realize it was koston.

Yeah right. When eric was screaming at that homeless guy for stealing his wallet.
Can you do 14 things you didn’t know about dgk next
@@ShredzShop Kostons noseslide on that curved rail had me rewinding that part too. Idk if there's enough material for a full video but it would be great if you did x things you didn't know about skate films

Damn that’s heavy. Thoughts go out to you and him. I’m glad you can keep his legacy going and Girl has a special piece of that! ❤️Thanks for sharing
Keep skating it's all about having fun
That was a noble move bruh 💪💯
Youre a good friend bro. He sounds like a good dude.
I do the same for my uncle that introduced me to Girl, passed away 3 years ago. I'm riding Girl till the end:)

I can relate to this so much :)

I kept one unridden that I painted the RDS logo on.
How did it skate?
Can’t wait for “14 things you didn’t know about enjoi”
My favorite memory from Girl: Eric Koston 😢
He was a big part of brand. I hear rumours of numbers being done... so maybe we could see him go home 🤔🤔 ... one can dream.
@@ShredzShop sounds like a plan lolz
Koston, guy mariano, brian Anderson, p rod, alex Olsen. I still love and support this brand but damn I miss these dudes.
@@nickn8682 It was definitely a special time in their history.
Yea I was at a skate shop a couple weeks ago and found a numbers shirt and ask the guy about the brand and he said he heard it’s not doing too good sucks for Koston and guy I’m still mad that fourstar went under too this day
Playing Skate 2 and thinking “why is this guy wearing a shirt that says GIRL haha”. Started skating and it’s been my favorite brand ever since.
Girl was around way before skate 2 or even skate lmao! Wow! Smh
Christopher Lewis never said it wasn’t. It’s just how I got introduced into skating and the brand.
Wow you poser
@@johndon2536 Bitch please, that’s when I started 10 years ago. Don’t @ me
"Front salad, back salad, front blunt"
front crunt
Crack my back real quick
I’m so happy you’re making these videos because it’s a lot of abundance of history in the skateboard world
Thanks Willy! Stoked you enjoyed!!
I’m 36 and I haven’t skated since I was 19. Did a lot of research finding a board I liked. Finally landed on a girl board. Guess you can say what’s already been said. I skate like a girl. Much love to the brand, teammates and all the hard work it takes to get to where they are. May we all skate like GIRLS.
🔥🔥🔥
That Owen Wilson part was my favorite lol. Freaked me out when I first saw it
I definitely thought it was real for a minute! 😂😂
10:18 and still, to this day, we do not know what that legal name is.....
Seeing Yeah Right for the first time, when it first came out, those skits were amazingly fun, we were loving skateboarding so much back then
You nailed it. Girl took out World Industries.
It is an interesting park skateboard history because girl did to World what World did to the big 5 of the 80s.
Girl has always had a cool vibe. Even when I wasn't skating I knew who Girl was. So many legends have skated for Girl.

Damnnnn that’s sick!!!
Mariano’s part in Mouse was legendary.
yup. the whole video was epic. watched it countless times
Every part he’s put out has been the guys an icon.
I will never forget seeing my first skate videos were by them and just seeing Brian Anderson have so much swag and power at the same time. Miss him.
when mouse came out, that video was always in the vcr. awesome video
The chocolate tour. Damn I'm old. I remember the chocolate tour video was when I first saw Stevie Williams too. Such a good video! Rest in peace Keenan!

The way Brandon Biebel shouts YEAH RIGHT, it plays in my head after C-Rob says it on the nine club pod lol
this is absolutely amazing!! girl has been a favourite for me since I don't know when. thanks for this!! yesterday at the and of my 4 day skate camp for kids, I gave a skated girl board of mine to a little girl, who hopefully will start to love skateboarding as much as I do :)
I grew up on koston and girl there is no one thing it all gets me in my feels.
Watching yeah right for the first time with all my little buddies screaming at the tv, particularly crankers part introducing my young brain to that le tigre song really blew my mind as a kid. Every time I hear it to this day it hits me in the feels!
I love how If you hear that song come on wherever, one of your friends is always gonna say “McCrank, yeah right!!!”. The song is so tied to him haha
4:11 on the bottom of the poster it says "send dollar or bong hit for stickers and info" and thats quite possibly the best marketing strategy ive ever seen
never ever noticed that
In 1996 I got a purple board MikeCarrol trolley car graphic. I loved that deck, wish I could have it back
16:30 😂😂 I love how you show Biebel with Weckingball.
My favorite memory is a personal one. Back in 06 I went to a Girl/Chocolate demo in Valencia with some of my best friends and met some of the pros then afterwards we went to Sylmar High and skated all day. Just this time in my life I miss so much. Not a care in the world and no responsibilities. Just family, friends and my skateboard.
Good shit. Stoked to see the old Dept. of Skateboarding in Portland, OR at 5:41
i work at a skate shop too and I play Yeah Right on the big TVs every day haha
When i got my first paycheck at 14 yeats old, my mom took me to our local shop to buy my very first complete ever. I spent an hour picking out my dream set up, spitfires, indys, and the GIRL JOVONTAE TURNER DECK. Ive literally the last 36 hours trying to find that deck with no luck. I remember it was part or a 3 or 4 deck "set" where each deck had 3 colors like tail was green, middle yellot or something, and im pretty sure his nose was red. They all had a different bird drawn lkinda like woody wood pecker. Sorry for rambling, but i want to replace it or get all of tbem, but cant evem find a hint of a pick of them. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!LOL. THANX
Been sk8in since skate or die...and "yeah right" the video, actually got me raving on about it to friends. Didn't realize how much Spike Jones influenced my upbringing.
Really bummed I missed out on the modern chair series!
Me too :'( they reissued them two years ago and we got 4 sets and they were all gone almost instantly... I couldn't even get a set haha
It’s strange that i remember that series and was a little bummed at the time cause I was used to the og big girl logo before that
This channel rocks!
I had the koston chair board, definitely one of my favorites over the years.
I always loved girl wheels! They always hold up well and feel super comfy for street in my style! Plus they made hello kitty wheels once, and they were super cute 😊!
🙌🙌
I think my favorite thing about Girl Skateboards is the gear that they put out. I catch a lot of eyes with them, especially my Cory Kennedy "Buck Off" shirt that I have. But I wish that they would bring back 4 Star! I still have a lot of 4 Star gear, but it is a great brand with the ultimate logo! But Girl, Chocolate, 4 Star, and Lakai is all I wear and that bis what I buy for my kids and grandkids as well.
I liked the decks with the rider's name and 'girl' in their native language. Is that still a thing or was that a thing of the past?
that’s still a thing, but since lots of riders are english speakers they get creative with it. Recently saw a McCrank deck with “Girl, eh?” as the title.
my Simon bannerot deck has "fille" on the bottom which is french for girl I believe
@@brody945 ohhhhh makes sense now
@@brody945 met Simon at Burnside. I said your famous! And he said thats not important, shredding is.
Just copped a caroll deck that has his name and FATA
I didn't know spike jones had a hand so many other movies.
My first proper setup was a Guy Mariano pro deck from girl, skated that thing way past razor tail
MUNI isn’t a street. It’s the SF Municipal Transit Service. Excellent show BTW
and it's "mmyou-ni" not "Money."
And mike wanted the logo to be based on the Muni logo. Sick.
Some of the best videos on TH-cam, keep em comin!
Glad you like them! We've got new episodes coming every other Saturday!
Goldfish is one of the most important skate videos of the 90s! Respect the architects
man i love these videos cuz rick mccrank also lives in van and i met him a million times too as well as sluggo
My favorite memory is the bathroom logo. Too funny.
Favorite girl memory was actually the lakai video fully flared that had a bunch of the girl riders on that team in fully flared, all the special effects like beibels intro part and kostons intro part
Keenan Milton’s intro from Yeah Right. It’s all switch / nollie 🤙🏽
Omg..this is my era, i'm old but still can skate ..luckily :P watching Girls team from day 1.. make me hype all the time :))
I was first introduced to Eric koston at a music festival in Illinois. He was 12, doing a demo with Eddie” el gato” elguera and Kevin “k9” foster.
That’s epic!!
so good! but 9 commercial breaks in a 18 minute video is ridicules YOU TUBE!!!
Stoked you enjoyed 🙏🏻🙏🏻
That first team should’ve included Henry Sanchez. I think it was something to do with him not wanting to leave Blind for a “start-up” like Girl.
One of my favorite shirts to wear to school “GET YOUR GIRL OFF MY DECK”
Eric koston is the tiger woods of skateboarding
No tiger woods is the eric koston of golf.
My first skateboard - Girl purple Malto. It is a complete setup. I also have an Open Books Girl deck - I love that design.
can you do a video on painting your nails? or nail polish brands? please!
I dunno man, Levi's nails look pretty messy, would take no tips from him tbh...
Koston is the Seinfeld of skateboarding
Buying Yeah Right and Transworld Free Your Mind at the local shop.Still my favorites to this day.
Started skating around 94’ Goldfish was the first skate video I bought, was so hype off it the skating and the dope soundtrack! We watched that everyday, Pure nostalgia watching it now or hearing any track from it!
It definitely gave me some crazy nostalgia rewatching those vids to put this together
Pretty rad vid just want to correct that the novel Maus is by Art Speigelman not art Spielberg
It must be a joke, right? Because what does Mouse have to do with Nazis?
Oh yeah! I ordered the fresh Sean Malto Marionette Girl board yesterday.
CK 1 all day everyday. The guy epitomises skateboarding.
Hands down favorite is Guy skating to "Watermelon man"! This along with the whole Chocolate Funk era were the best!
....Wait did he ever even mention York!?!?!?
that was how I discovered herbie hancock and headshunters! also you're right no mention of York??!
Rick Howard Skating the BC Rainforest! ONE Of MY All Time FAVORITE Video Parts!
A Glimpse into the Genius of Spike!
Love these Videos! 40 Year Old skater from TAMPA! Skatepark and Bro Bowl for 3 Decades. I Rode for the Skatepark/World Market(That GOES BACK!). Amateur Rider, also for A Little Board Company "Jersey Devil" and Independent Trucks (which WAS My BIGGEST. Outside the "FAMILY" Atmosphere of The Skatepark, Which was a "Home" almost. Riding and Getting "Fresh Set Ups", WAS ALL WE NEEDED!)... Tore my Left Hammy 100% and It's STILL Tweeked. BUT I STILL Ride! I Might NOT Shred Like I ONCE DID, But TIME Will catch US All and You Will UNDERSTAND! Until THEN....
SHRED
TILL YER DEAD!
Yooo! That rainforest clip is sooo dope! Also really cool to watch Spike Jonze progress over the years in all the girl videos into this insanely talented Hollywood star he is today.
Jersey Devil is a dope name for a board brand. Hope you heal up quick, just had ankle surgery after some torn tendons, heal up quick bud!
4:56. ! I was there, very surreal. Literally hundreds of pro skaters in philly, it was when they x games were in philly. When he landed tht, you would have thought you were at a football game. It was insanely loud af.
Favorite memory was being at the skatepark an seeing some of the best riders wearing shirts /shorts with girls on them.. never understand
I’m fairly new to skateboarding my favorite memory from Girl would be Manchild in GX1000 - Roll Up* idk if that counts tho
Gx is a great first video
All girl videos are amazing, the collaboration between tricks, skaters, video graphics, and music. Made me want to skate even harder. Good Shit
Iv been hooked on these 14 things you dont know videos
My fav Girl memory has always been Harsh Euro Barge and all their tour videos. It was sick to see everyone’s personalities and everyone hanging out. Felt more like friends than a company at that time.
What video is that Biebel clip from at 5:58? The music sounds great!
Favorite mem. Is the Eric Koston college series deck. My first pro deck ever.
I wish I had that board for my wall!
I feel like I was responsible for this episode. Radness
I love how they chose a clip of Mike Mo freaking the fuck out lol
10:38 MUNI is not a Street in SF, it's the public transit (bus/train) there.
Favourite memory, girl make the best decks. I would cycle through different brands, they would be a bit too heavy, or unresponsive, or snap too easy. Girl are just right.
Does anyone know the name of the instrumental in the beginning? Thanks in advance
Coming from KC Sean Malto is like one of the most famous people to come out of here so every little kid with a walmart board knows his name and I was no different back in the day. Girl will always hold a special place in my heart as one of the first brands I ever knew and that's because of that malto sw flip
Did you know he originially tried to get on Zero and they turned him down, then he ended up on Girl. Pretty crazy! Feel like he fits Girl perfectly.
Shredz Shop no way that’s crazy! wonder what a world with malto on zero would’ve been like
He’d probably be riding for the reboot of Fallen right now ... 😂
Favorite memory from girl is brandon beibels yeah right part,i would watch it over and over and over haha i based my style off him and still do,i even dress like him haha and i mike mos part in fully flared is probably equally just as memorable to me,he opened my eyes to so many new tricks,the switch tre on flat to switch flip down a set was amazing
Shef vs WuTang or Intensity demo girl choc stereo earl ADI and maybe a few other ppl it was so sick and so fun , can almost remember that week like I just got home from hanging out getting crazy , and some amazing sessions the demo great freedom plaza after was so much fun , shit I remember middle of summer but perfect weather unbelievable
As a long islander Gino Iannucci part in yeah right was so monumental for me there was so many Long Island skate spots in that part and just a awesome skating also he had the guns and roses song so easy which fit so well he put Long Island on the map with that part big part of my childhood
That part was amazing, and Gino’s style is immaculate 👌🏻
You told me everything I know about girl. Thanks for the time.
Pretty Sweet was probably the BEST skate video I’ve ever seen.
It’s Paulo Diaz not Paul
I got the malto hello kitty deck for my daughters birthday I really like the shape and way it feels.
The Hello kitty stuff has been really huge with collectors! Some of the original hello kitty boards were selling for $800 on eBay. I think the newer ones are much easier to get your hands on though.
Girl still going strong 20+ years. Definitely a top 10 skateboard company.
solid ass decks good pop too
Great video, but quick correction - it's Orcas Island (pronounced orkiss) island, not Orca island.
No mention of Johannes Gamble creative genius behind many of the special effects in the films?
Rick Howard's iconic part of him skating through the woods took place in Oakhurst CA. Some of the guys from the local shop helped lay down plywood. Unfortunately I was working at the skate shop that day and couldn't join then.
Not familiar with Johannes Gamble, he a friend of Spike?
The Rick Howard story is amazing! A friend of mine interviewed him for a Canadian skate magazine and the whole time Rick kept telling him about this amazing new AM rider called Stewie McGlovern, and they wrote about him in the article... but Stewie didn't exist...
@@ShredzShop From what I knew Johannes worked directly for Girl. I could be completely wrong and he might have been a contractor. Not sure what his official title was there. He is a friend of mine from Fresno so when I was attending the UCLA admissions camp I crashed at Johannes' place. He took.me to the Girl warehouse where we got to skate the mini in the back with Mike Carroll and Rick. Of course my mini ramp skills were pretty nonexistent since I was a street skater but Rick and Mike cheered on my rock to fakie and tail stalls.
@@diggitydawg510 Damn, that's cool! I've skated that mini at the Girl warehouse, so fun.
Skating their board for the first time… i had borrowed a friends and promptly bought the Pretty Sweet deck.
My friend got the new Mike Carroll Sanrio Tokyo Speed Series deck with the hello kitty graphic wit noh some 54mm Girl wheels and It's looks real cool
Carrols Fathers, "Chocolate" George, was a very prominent Hells Angels member through their haydays. His Mother is the one who did the illistrations for the clubs posters and such eventually leading to designing Chocolate graphics. Kind of explains the red & white theme, huhh
Erik Koston was the skate God when I was coming up skating during the Menikmati and Yeah Right! Era...
Agreed
I bought a girl board off someone because my zero was locked up and idk why I just needed a skateboard for new years eve, someone sold me a sick girl semi pool deck with giant green Peralta wheels on some indies, love it. Can't wait to use it in the pool.
That’s crazy interesting !
We need a Baker/Bootleg documentary
As far as my favorite Girl memory goes it would have to be meeting the Girl/Chocolate team at a demo early 2000s.
Damn, the girl team in early 2000's was HEAVY, that sounds rad. We have a 14 things you didn't know about Baker if you search!
@@ShredzShop I noticed that after my comment. Im new to this channel
@@cookncrook6902 No worries!
MUNI is not a street in San Francisco. It is the public transit system of Buses and trains.
Yup. And it's not pronounced like "money". It's like municipal without the -cipal.
I strictly only put up Girl Choc. Fourstar ads on my bed room wall-Ealry 2000s. Jerons Mouse part, the best! And koston skating locally "the wedge hubba" - in AZ. In an old tour vid. Ummmm... that p-rod era on girl, was great too. BA skating to interpol. Mike york yeah right part was nuts too whoo. PACOOOO!!!!!
