I started skating in 1997. I'm 34 and still skate from time to time. I've never seen any 411s from pre-97. I saw this video and thought hells yeah and clicked on it. It blows my mind not just how much skateboarding has progressed since then but how much it progress just within a few years during the 90s. The level of skating from 93 up to when I had started changed drastically. Nowadays of course skating has progressed so much that an am would have to put out better skate footage than these guys did back then as pros. So sick seeing Jeremy Wray as an 18 year old at his parents house with Jason Dill his age or even younger. It's a time warp back to before my time, seeing a side of skating I never really knew much about. Thanks for uploading.
Man, think about from 88-89 when street really started to take shape til when this was filmed. To think it was this far along already is crazy in itself.
Started in 88. In deep by this point. They were so good. Influential and would let u know who was up and on the way up. These skaters made skating what it is today. Kids should be thanking these guys.
Was 22, skating everyday purely for fun. So many new tricks from that time when skating was "dead". Good times, keep riding. 51 now, too many tricks to relearn but damn fun to try.
I have this on DVD from the 411vm issue #50 "Good As Gold" with Jamie Thomas on the front cover. I was happy to have it. the entire video is so chilled.
Ray Barbee and John Cardiel were keeping it real during the low-wheel-flip darkness. The day I saw big wheels, big pop shoves and handrail 50-50s being promoted (1994) was a great one. The return of concave was also much appreciated.
The good old days, waiting for the up and coming and who's who of skating. Kids have it easy with the overload of info on the fangle internet machine! But yeah nah, it's great to access skating on all the media platforms, but the feeling off the 411 theme music and the chaos section will never die!
Thanks for the upload. This is skateboarding that I came to know back when I was a teen. Good skateboard setups was expensive for me at the time and so I never got near to learning it. Good thing I never got those cheap completes back then as what some skateboarders suggested to me as I know now those are crappy to learn to skateboard. Now I'm grown man with a job, I'm gonna get one before I grow old and nag at skateboarders.
I wish I could've gotten into skating sooner. I started in 2000, but man did skateboarding evolve in the 90's, it would've been really cool to see the progression year after year in real time. By the time I started, skateboarding was already basically what you see today, most videos from 2000 onward would be believable as current releases.
DerekSiems it's kind of a weird thing. I'm about to be 44, i started skating in 1984 and still skate. At the time, when you're immersed in it, you don't really realize how "quick it's progressing" or whatever. We were just skateboarding. Making stuff up as we went along, but not really passing attention to the fact that things were changing, or making a difference. It was just natural progression. Same as today. Now, when i look back at videos like this, i realize and recognize how crazy stuff was back then. I have a feeling it's the same today. People are doing some insane ish that, 20 years ago, we wouldn't have even thought about, never mind thinking it was possible, just wouldn't have even crossed our minds. I'm sure it's the same feeling today for these guys and girls out there killing it as it was for us back in the late 80s thru the 90s. I can recognize what's going on today because I'm old, and stopped really progressing a bit back. Now i just skate, I'm not trying to push the limit, I'm just trying to do it until my body doesn't allow me to anymore. So for me to watch an edit from today, i get that same feeling as i do looking back at videos like this. Like how you wee saying, it's crazy to see how fast ish progressed during that time. I watch edits today and I'm like, "damn, these dudes are pushing it harder by the day!" I watch some of these guys and girls today, from just the local kids at the parks and street spots, to the pros, and i can literally see the progression from week to week, sometimes even session to session. It's crazy. And now with instagram and fb, youtube, we literally get to see it all happen in real time. Where as, back then, the only people we saw progressing daily were the people we skated with daily. We had to wait for a video to drop to see what kind of progress a pro or somebody had made in the past 6 months or year. Wild times man.
+VHS Skate Tube I have a bunch of the old 411s if you want to help pay for shipping whatever I have is yours. I'm just out if work at the moment but I'm down to ship them out a few at a time. I think i have from issue 12 up till they went to dvd and i have bunch of those too. I have a shit load of vhs skate videos. if there's a way to get em to you let me know.
+VHS Skate Tube I don't know how to private message on here but if you do send me a message and I'll send you my email. we can figure something out, anything for the bros in the skate community
Sick to see Erik Sermon on there. At that time when EPMD had recently split and he began producing for a bunch of folks (Redman among them), he had some of the dopest and darkest beats ever put on track. Still listen to that shit to this day. 411 was always so good for the music. Great hip hop, great punk and metal stuff (lots of good thrash), and great alternative. This is a time capsule treasure for sure!
Damian Stachelski No problem and thanks for answering. It almost sounds like nirvana at some points lol though i know it's not. It took me 2 years to find the Don't mean maybe song but thanks to you i found it. I guess i will have to keep looking.
No, but i have been looking to find out for quite some time. Also i do not understand why the song thats listed as HEMI - Freeloader is so hard to find. Any luck on your end?
What is the name of the song at schoolyards 30:30? nvm i think its hemi-freeloader. Also trying to find the song at 41:19. Can't seem to find anything by this band or the piano movers uncle! song.
Does anyone know the name of the song/band at 58:28 during the Brooklyn Banks contest. I have been trying to find this out since this video came out. HELP, SOMEONE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!
I used to just have to watch the first couple of minutes to go skate . And saw cardiel do that in ct . So it's neat , thought Jeremy way was the best back then
Ah, my bad, I clicked the wrong timestamp. I don't know what band that is, but it sounds pretty similar to this obscure band that was on some Thrasher stuff in the late 80s called "Trains", good luck finding any of their material though :\
I saw the curb cut Wray kickflipped. At a grocery store a block north of the Huntington Park (RIP, cross the chest you heathen, and put your head down when being sorry to god.) It was massive. You don’t know some of human potential until you see spots with your own eyes. Trips you out.
I always thought Pancho and wee-man were the same person. huh. I do remember an interview with Pancho in a Big-Brother magazine. I think there was a sequence of him doing a flip-trick down a small double set. Thanks for clearing things up.
Does anyone think ANY of the tricks would be in a skate video of today? Maybe a couple but most of the lines are sloppy af compared to standards of today.
This seems like yesterday. Those wheels would last two or three sesh's max. 38 to 42mm were normal. This is so sick. I miss the days of broke pros selling product at spots and skateparks. I didn't hardly buy shit from a shop for a fat minute.
Odd that I look back on it with a sort of embarrassment. The clothes. The gear. The clear negative affect the gear had on skill. But, looking back, some serious shit still got done. It’s fucking wildly impressive, especially, due to the fact that the gear sucked ass. The shit that got done, an old product dating back to fucking whenever…fucking clay wheels, everything is sort of amazing up until this point where we’ve got really good set ups and gear. We’re spoiled. So some style got lost in the make-it-work category. Sometimes you just had to make it work. And the feats were still feats.
WHO IN THE HELL (other than little puppet trend whore kids, and fashion fresh fool tools) WOULD DISLIKE THE MOST/ONLY ICONIC SKATE VIDEO SERIES THAT WE AND THE PRO'S WE LOVE AND THE PRO'S THEY LOVE, WATCHED RELIGIOUSLY FOR YEARS? WHO WOULDN'T LOVE TO WATCH TRICK EVOLUTION UNFOLD IN FRONT THEM?

My first 411vm was issue 22 which had Andrew Reynolds Profiles
93 man I was ordering California cheap skates cash on delivery and lived on my skateboard!!
@@euminkong I skated with him in 1995 LMAO. Lakeland Florida.
Man, think about from 88-89 when street really started to take shape til when this was filmed. To think it was this far along already is crazy in itself.
I'm also 34 born 1985 man the 90s was dope sk8ting i clicked qwik too lol
2023 and I am here with 46 watching this, good memories
enormous pants and tiny wheel's, man those were the day's
Son of Dad I have 50mm wheel sand can’t imagine going any smaller.
No they weren't
I still rock baggy pants... but my wheel size is 52-53mm
i'm not a skater. now that you mentioned it i can't unsee it. man those are tiny

I’m only 2 months old and I love all of the old 411 videos!
Gay
i admit i’m not a skater but i love 411. everyone is so positive and funny and the style is killer. makes me feel so happy :-)

Your rigth bro

I started skating right before 9/11. It’s so wild to see how much the art has changed but also stayed the same.

Thank you for posting these, i can't believe they don't have more views.
Use to love me some 411 back in the day, my favorite skate videos by far..
