The OG's are always the best. Love the hearing the history of skateboarding from the guys who lived it. Can't have enough of the guys from the 70s/80s!
True Story: I got to skate the combi back in the day. SALBA, Mike Smith, and Chris Miller were there. Salba let me cut in. Then took a look at my board to make sure it was set up right. He looked at the Indy's and said, "You know what's good about Indy's? You can grind them right down to the axle." And then he asked me what was all over them, obviously candle wax right, and said, "If you need wax then you're not going fast enough." True words.
Idgaf how fast you go, you're not gonna stand up on a 20 ft frontside tailslide on raw concrete. Wax makes things possible that simply aren't feasible without it. Try kicking a long ass front lip to smith on a raw curb and the best of luck to you.
@@hiwattdude you guys are entitled to your opinions, just know that it's outdated and not always applicable to just go faster to grind something. Period, end of story..
I first learned about Salba on Love Letters. I hope Vans saves those episodes forever, because they are invaluable. Grosso is a G for spreading his love of skating.
I started skating in 78 and continue to everyday. Salba was and still is a hero of mine! Thank you guys for this episode, was so inspirational and nostalgic, please do a follow up episode would love to hear more of his stories!
i'm 47 years old. I still skate. and Salba is in inspiration to this day for his persistence. Also, I was little kid in late 80's and I skated at Pipeline Upland. Salba and his crew were fuckin intimidating. they snaked little kids' runs all day ! I Saw Chris Miller skate, there and Schroeder, but Salba and Mickey were the most dialed in to that place, if you saw them skate doubles it was a treat. the Combi took me out so many times. It was deep, slippery, lumpy and fast. my brother fractured his wrist there. I got Pitched out of the full pipe from 9'o clock to flat bottom so many times. I'm a pool rider forged from Pipeline. That is why i can ride anything to this day. I'm carving high and fast transition anyday, because I leaned at the gnarliest park in the west. Pipeline was the Mecca at the time. and I was there. I still remember the smell of the shop, the sweaty rental pads, and the perfume the girls behind the counter would wear to mask that funk !
Yes! I haven't even watched a second yet, but: "YES!!!" I'm from the mid- to late 80s. Salba is like some supernatural being to me. He's like Chronos, Time, from Greek mythology. He's not an Olympian god like Hawk or Hosoi; he is Titan: one of the mysterious, uncontrollable elemental forces of nature that preceded and gave birth to the Olympians. In my 13 year-old mind, Salba would have beaten to death with his bare hands any of those 80s pros (including Mike V.). The only people who ranked higher than Salba to me back then were Jay Adams and Duane Peters: because, in the late 80s, people still talked about in almost reverent tones, but they were almost never seen anymore. So they were like the Loch Ness Monster or something. Quickly: anyone remember Wheels of Fire when they drew on the film with those colored pencils and Salba was with Micke in that bowl in the desert? Remember Salba standing in the middle of the bowl kind of undulating himself with the fire shooting up from his hands? I just can't explain what that did to me back then. If I weren't already a man of faith, I'd probably worship Salba.
Love the spectrum of guests you bring on. To Salba's point you learn a lot from the newer skaters and old, and it establishes that community. We are all connected. F***, I love skateboarding!
I’ve heard of this guy since I started skating but have never seen or heard him talk. This interview was great and I’m a fan. Seems like an intelligent person who does what he wants and is ridiculously good at guitar.
I was privileged enough to skate the Pipeline in the 80's and witness Salba live! This truly humble legend has always been an inspiration to me and my skating! Thank you Salba!
@@arthurhatten That dude is the truth. He doesn't speak a lot, but when he does... it's always gold. We need Roger to correct every mistake uttered by the skateboarding world. Love that dude.
great interview. Really liked Salba’s & his stories. I feel he was a little more candid & shared more details than some of the other legends. i remember reading the article about the group getting arrested in Texas in an old Thrasher, back when the pages were newsprint. overall great interview
i use to live a few houses down from him and would skate with him Cerna and others at Upland skatepark they helped build with its insane full pipe. Some of the best times of my life! they would push me so hard everyday to get better and always had our backs
I saw an article of Steve and Micky skating spillways in a 83 Skateboard mag...our crew in Calgary started finding pipes too and I been loving it ever since. This was an epic episode. Absolute Legend.
THIS is the 9Club i need FIRST thing in the morning!!! *Crob, this was one of those "Special, special, SPECIAL 👉🏽 SPECIAL" Guests. Next time Triple OG is on set, they get FOUR specials.
My best to Salba! Man, it was unbelievable growing up when we did, we had so much freedom, went pretty much wherever we could. It was ALWAYS a damn mission, ya know? I mean, if we weren't done, I mean DONE by the end of it, we hadn't been doing it right! Always going hard, usually short of breaking the law, but definitely not always! Good times, a decent price to have paid, now, being old, at 58.
I was just thinking that. I was born in 93, and even I had a vastly different experience in my developmental years than my siblings born just 4-5 years after me. You guys had the real freedom though. My friends and I had fun and our own exhausting missions though :)
I started skating in 73' for the same reason because I wanted to surf and lived miles from the beach so I surfed driveway banks , ditches , and a pool in Santee called Tightey Bowl on Mission Gorge rd. It's now under the post office .
I am learning something awesome about Salba. Using football as a way to let out aggression. I was skating in 1984, no football until 1990ish. I also made varsity as a freshman in 1993. My best skating is from 1989ish-2008ish, roughly 11y/o-30. Those high school coaches wanted me to stop skateboarding. LOL. I quit football with 3 scholarship offers, to go to a small expensive fine arts school. lol! Never finished. Still Skating.
As much as you could tell that they were trying to wrap it up, I like that they did let him keep talking. Showed a lot of respect. Salba, thank you for the knowledge. Skateboarding loves you!
This was epic! I grew up as a kid in the 80’s and started skating in ‘85 at 8 (I wasn’t great, but loved it). I love that we can go back and get the history from the guys that made it. Steve going and getting dam books and information is next level. This guy has the mind of an engineer or something. Great stuff guys. You and Grissom brought me back into skating as a fan at 45. Keep it up
Yesssss!!!!!! I was thinking yesterday how rad it would be if Salba was on the big show!!! This should be at least in 2 parts.. So stoked to listen to this. Thanx 9club..
909* legend. Montclair is a fuckin blink of an eye. You’ll miss it if you don’t pay attention. Grew up on Moreno and Monte vista. The baldy pipes was also a graff gallery too. Used to hit them with the homies and watch them get down. Super dope
Watching this while getting dressed to go to the local skatepark and just put a front print t-shirt on backwards because watching this made me feel like a kid in the 80s again when every shirt was a back print. Power of suggestion? Creeping dementia? Who cares, I'm going skating.
Grew up in Ontario/ Upland and when the new pipe opened in 2002 I was there on opening day I met Steve and over time he showed us new generation of Badlanders how to drain and skate pools and just generally took us under his wing. It was so awesome growing up skating pools and Baldy pipe with him, Grosso, Lance and so Grosse, other pros. Definitely wouldn't have been as good a skater without Salba and I'm stoked you got on Nine Club buddy!
I didn’t watch these before interviewing the legends. I actually caught the Grosso interview after watching Jeff interview Salba in Love Letters. I’m enjoying all the other interviews, too. Keep it up - it’s sick!
I love how non-ego driven skate legends are compared to hollywood-type fame. He's so cool, and chill, and if you didn't know who he was, first, you'd never guess he's such a fuckin legend in something as big as skateboarding. So rad, dude.
Non-ego driven?? He said, “I hate talking about myself,” followed by 4 hours of talking about himself as the main character of the most embellished stories of all time. He’s skated 5,000 pools?!?! Hahahahaha!! So a new one every 3 days for his 50 years of skating. Sure buddy!! You know what they say, “Never meet your heroes.” I get his importance to the foundation of skating but that was a difficult listen.
18.42 Jeron looks at Chris, like, "omfg this rules": that's the most sickest, sweetest, most respectful instance of someone juiced to be learning from their forebears I've ever seen
SALBA toured with the 1st Van's WARP tour back in 1995 and skated a half pipe as part of the event. I remember seeing him there and being in awe of the "old" guy who was ripping so hard. He would have only been about 34 at the time (hahaha). Great to see him still at it at nearly 60! Legend!
2:27:53 Funny to hear Alba talk about being confused for Alva. I remember seeing Salba randomly skating a bowl at the Denver skate park one day (back around 2001). I told my friend "Her look, it's Tony Alba". :)
Absolutely the best episode.You guys held off and let Salba be Salba. I have had a ton of respect for you (obviously great skaters, and the social thing you do now). This allows us history unknown. Thank you.
Awesome to hear Salba’s stories and about his dedication to pool and pipe missions! He’d make for a great stop and chat guest in the future talking through those clips. I bet he’s got a lot more stories to tell.
I did not know the Bevel was the 1st concave deck; i thought it was a Z-Pig or the Tri-Plane. Interesting stories for sure. Thanks for having a legend like Steve Alba on.
Such a rad dude! Never knew his story till now even though I’ve watched him skate throughout the years. A lot of knowledge and wisdom came through in this episode. Keep skating bro, we love you!
This first came out ...I used this to get to know Steve again ...Thankyou...Being him and I were friends as kids ...It was a blade of his his Dad's razor that sealed it for life ..Thru Skater cons Tuscon ,Etnies .Then El Gato Classic..I dropped it all like ...No way can bury me six feet under ....Then finally the day came couple weeks agoJerry said """I do not remember """then said """How is your Mom and Dad""""Bam!!!!"""""
I love it when you guys have OG's on the show. It's important to know our history and hear from the legends. Sick episode!
I’m 😊😊uupu😊up😊uup😊uiuuiiiuuuuujuhuuuuuuuugiuuu
I agree. My favourite was the Olson one and now is this one.
for sure
Should be a mandatory standard of utmost priority.
The OG's are always the best. Love the hearing the history of skateboarding from the guys who lived it. Can't have enough of the guys from the 70s/80s!
I went to school with Delgado and Duncan. So much fun back in the day🤘
A true legend and OG at the 9 club. Can't wait to sit back and enjoy this.
my thoughts too... got my coffee and headphones straight chillin
9 club making history for us. NEVER FORGET THE ROOTS 🤙💪🙏

And then he asked me what was all over them, obviously candle wax right, and said, "If you need wax then you're not going fast enough." True words.
Says the guy who has a song written about him called “Salba sauce”… 🙄
Idgaf how fast you go, you're not gonna stand up on a 20 ft frontside tailslide on raw concrete. Wax makes things possible that simply aren't feasible without it. Try kicking a long ass front lip to smith on a raw curb and the best of luck to you.
As a heavy skater, like 250 plus pounds yeah you need wax. Lol
I side with Salba.....go fast or go home.
@@hiwattdude you guys are entitled to your opinions, just know that it's outdated and not always applicable to just go faster to grind something. Period, end of story..
The Screamin’ Lord! 🙌
Four hours of him!
@@brendangeraghty8865 I'm 3hrs in and I'm starting to think 4 ain't gonna be enough.
Salba rules! Also love how down Santa Cruz is with the Nine Club!
SALBA NEEDS A SHOE
Thank you for this episode! Stories for days and told so well! I grew up in Pomona CA, so listening to all those local cities was so dope 🙌🏽
I first learned about Salba on Love Letters. I hope Vans saves those episodes forever, because they are invaluable. Grosso is a G for spreading his love of skating.
I started skating in 78 and continue to everyday. Salba was and still is a hero of mine! Thank you guys for this episode, was so inspirational and nostalgic, please do a follow up episode would love to hear more of his stories!
i'm 47 years old. I still skate. and Salba is in inspiration to this day for his persistence. Also, I was little kid in late 80's and I skated at Pipeline Upland. Salba and his crew were fuckin intimidating. they snaked little kids' runs all day ! I Saw Chris Miller skate, there and Schroeder, but Salba and Mickey were the most dialed in to that place, if you saw them skate doubles it was a treat. the Combi took me out so many times. It was deep, slippery, lumpy and fast. my brother fractured his wrist there. I got Pitched out of the full pipe from 9'o clock to flat bottom so many times. I'm a pool rider forged from Pipeline. That is why i can ride anything to this day. I'm carving high and fast transition anyday, because I leaned at the gnarliest park in the west. Pipeline was the Mecca at the time. and I was there. I still remember the smell of the shop, the sweaty rental pads, and the perfume the girls behind the counter would wear to mask that funk !
Fantastic story teller. I could listen to 10 more hours of him talking.
Yes! I haven't even watched a second yet, but: "YES!!!"
I'm from the mid- to late 80s. Salba is like some supernatural being to me. He's like Chronos, Time, from Greek mythology. He's not an Olympian god like Hawk or Hosoi; he is Titan: one of the mysterious, uncontrollable elemental forces of nature that preceded and gave birth to the Olympians.

This is wild ! Thanks for having Steve on ! Wouldn’t be skating as long as I have up here in Michigan if it wasn’t for this dude.
Big up the Mitten. Nine Club is keeping me stoked waiting for the snow to melt.
Thanks for getting Salva on here. These were my idols when I was a little kid in the early 80’s. He still cool as as he’ll. Still!
Monday mornings are tolerable when you have a new Nine Club to watch!
So rad that salba is low key a mathematician about all the pools and full pipes. So rad
Dude Salba on an episode of the experience would be wild, please have him on more often this was amazing.
Love the spectrum of guests you bring on. To Salba's point you learn a lot from the newer skaters and old, and it establishes that community. We are all connected. F***, I love skateboarding!

You guys crushed this by letting the man speak.
CRob you're a straight professional now sir.
Need more Roger, that dude knows his shit.
more roger
1000% back the "More Roger Movement"
@@arthurhatten
That dude is the truth.
He doesn't speak a lot, but when he does... it's always gold.
We need Roger to correct every mistake uttered by the skateboarding world.
Love that dude.
Roger that? More Roger.
Where is he ?
A whole different world of skateboarding that many never experience. These stories are so amazing. Salbatage!
I love how Salba has 3 or more "worst" stories, this man has lived/skated so much
The boys have outdone themselves!! This is a BIG one! Thanks for existing Nine Club !! ❤️
So rad! No one skates pools like Salba!!
I love how Salba is basically a civil engineer at this point 🤣
great interview.
Really liked Salba’s & his stories. I feel he was a little more candid & shared more details than some of the other legends.
i remember reading the article about the group getting arrested in Texas in an old Thrasher, back when the pages were newsprint.
overall great interview
Salba, Screaming Lord Salba, the one and only! Bring on the Salba Sauce!
Any coincidence it's episode 215? Indy to the core!!
Legend !!! Awesome to see Salba on the Nine Club. I would also love to see Dressen return :)
Lord Salba. Salbatage. Salba Cruz. This dude is my Hero.
The skate history is soo freaking dope. My second time on this. Thanks guys your crushing it...
i use to live a few houses down from him and would skate with him Cerna and others at Upland skatepark they helped build with its insane full pipe. Some of the best times of my life! they would push me so hard everyday to get better and always had our backs
Dude, Salba of the Badlands...almost 4 hours ?! Thank you 9 club !!!
Steve is and will always be THE man. From one Badlander to another.Much respect!
I saw an article of Steve and Micky skating spillways in a 83 Skateboard mag...our crew in Calgary started finding pipes too and I been loving it ever since. This was an epic episode. Absolute Legend.
Love how the outro photo montage was all of Steve's fellow legends. Classy move cuz that man has earned his place in the pantheon.
THIS is the 9Club i need FIRST thing in the morning!!!

My first ever pro board was the salba witchdoctor - great episode
I’ve lived in the Badlands my whole life and this the interview I’ve been waiting for !
Same here 👏🏼
I started skating in 73' for the same reason because I wanted to surf and lived miles from the beach so I surfed driveway banks , ditches , and a pool in Santee called Tightey Bowl on Mission Gorge rd. It's now under the post office .
CA or SC? lol
The Indiana Jones of skateboarding. Screamin' Lord Salba baby!
Coming from an old guy, thanks for allowing a forum to hear directly from those that shaped our sport. And you do this with respect. Great job.
Blessed EarthStrong👑 Steve Alba, Congrats with your 59th birthday!

4 hours! YES! SALBA!!!!!!!!!
Great to see you on the 9club. Amazing history and gnarly stories🙌
4 hours with Salba?! Cannot wait big dogs CHEERS to the 9club
What a sweet, sincere interview. Thank you all @The9 for all you do.
One of the most underrated vert skaters of the 1980's.
I loved how non linear this really was. Just a great story telling session with a Legend. The Bob Roberts tie in was so cool.
As much as you could tell that they were trying to wrap it up, I like that they did let him keep talking.
Showed a lot of respect.
Salba, thank you for the knowledge.
Skateboarding loves you!

Keep it up
The way he described the pool and bringing back positive energy back to it was deep and soooo dope👏🏽👏🏽🔥
The fact that Steve Alba is so incredibly well spoken played a huge role in what makes this interview so immersive. Can't stop watching.
Yesssss!!!!!! I was thinking yesterday how rad it would be if Salba was on the big show!!! This should be at least in 2 parts.. So stoked to listen to this. Thanx 9club..
Looking forward to this. I feel like I’ve heard Salba mentioned so much over the years.
Also the cell phone story brought a tear to my eye... and the Kyle story....
909* legend. Montclair is a fuckin blink of an eye. You’ll miss it if you don’t pay attention. Grew up on Moreno and Monte vista. The baldy pipes was also a graff gallery too. Used to hit them with the homies and watch them get down. Super dope
The God of pool skating.. fuck yeah Nine Club!
this is funny. i grew up surfing. now i want to skate like Salba...
Passed out watching this at the table and all I remember is the sound that woke me up at the end. Something I’ve never heard before, too sick!
So rad having the pioneers on the show they have so many amazing stories.
These are some of the craziest stories I've ever heard lol way cool interview
This one here.
Love having the Legends on here.
Suggestion:
John Lucero!
He keeps getting mentioned in episodes, but hadn't had his own spot yet.
Watching this while getting dressed to go to the local skatepark and just put a front print t-shirt on backwards because watching this made me feel like a kid in the 80s again when every shirt was a back print. Power of suggestion? Creeping dementia? Who cares, I'm going skating.
IM SO STOKED FOR THIS! THE REAL OG!!!!!
I am hyped on this. I put it on the Spotify on the way to work this morning. Now I just want to go skate.
Legend. This is my kind of skater and human.
Grew up in Ontario/ Upland and when the new pipe opened in 2002 I was there on opening day I met Steve and over time he showed us new generation of Badlanders how to drain and skate pools and just generally took us under his wing.

Wow...so great hearing Salba storytell. This stuff is priceless. Great episode.
SALBA toured with the 1st Van's WARP tour back in 1995 and skated a half pipe as part of the event. I remember seeing him there and being in awe of the "old" guy who was ripping so hard. He would have only been about 34 at the time (hahaha). Great to see him still at it at nearly 60! Legend!
2:27:53 Funny to hear Alba talk about being confused for Alva. I remember seeing Salba randomly skating a bowl at the Denver skate park one day (back around 2001). I told my friend "Her look, it's Tony Alba". :)
I remember when his name was new on the scene, I would double take hearing Alba! Huh Alva
Absolutely the best episode.You guys held off and let Salba be Salba. I have had a ton of respect for you (obviously great skaters, and the social thing you do now). This allows us history unknown. Thank you.
Epic... Salbatoge. True legend
Finding this right as I got to go! I know what I'm doing later tonight! Made my day Club 9!!! LOVE WHAT YOU BROUGHT TO THE GAME!!
Awesome to hear Salba’s stories and about his dedication to pool and pipe missions! He’d make for a great stop and chat guest in the future talking through those clips. I bet he’s got a lot more stories to tell.
Great Episode! How can you not LOVE SALBA!!! What an absolute legend!
A Stop n Chat or two with Salba would be amazing!! So many videos 🍿
LEGEND! I had three witch doctor decks back in the day. And bought a new one last year. Thank you SALBA!
So rad to see Salba, great show guys
It’s only right to have Saliba on!! Yes!!!
Legend. So many epic OG stories. Imagine this was your dad or grandad. And I have never seen the 9 Club so engrossed.
I think it is great that behind Steve Alba is His brother, Micke Alba, gracing the cover of Skateboarder Magazine.
Salba, what a Legend.....I would love to see a Gideon Choi episode....
This is so legendary. His stories are incredible and the love and history with skateboarding is so meaningful.
Glad to see legends like this still around, still shredding, still contributing to skateboarding. A true skater's skater.
I did not know the Bevel was the 1st concave deck; i thought it was a Z-Pig or the Tri-Plane. Interesting stories for sure. Thanks for having a legend like Steve Alba on.
This is Awesome skateboarding is Salba So Rad of an episode
Went into this just because there was nothing else to watch, this was a top 5 interview from Nine club. Steves tight
Mike V suggested this and right afterwards here it is. Couldn't believe it when it popped up. The lengths this man SALBA went to are really something.
I'm stoked af so gnarly to see Salba on here one of the dudes I looked up to along w Jay Adam's, Grosso, Alva, Blender, Dressen,,,true legend
Thanks Mrs Alba. You made it ALL possible.
SALBA - You are such a gift to us all. 😎
We miss you Grosso. ♥️
Such a rad dude! Never knew his story till now even though I’ve watched him skate throughout the years. A lot of knowledge and wisdom came through in this episode. Keep skating bro, we love you!
I started skating because of Salba. Been waiting for this! Thank you guys!
