Mike Vallely taught me how to Ollie, pop shuvit, and kickflip. I watched his trick tips on Comcast On Demand probably a million times for months before I got each one locked. This was years ago. Thanks Mike 👍🏿
Duuuuuude this is big facts, that Ollie video was God tier
Same I had optimum and would watch those daily before skating. I still remember him and that other guy wearing the helmet.
I had a mike v tape called "the first step" i think. Taught me ollies too
same
Holy shit this has to be about 15years ago, i remember watching those vids too.
I can listen to skate stories from the early 90s, 80s and before for hours. Skateboard history is the greatest.
Had the luxery of growing up in Edison and skating with Mike and Dune a number of times. Always great to see how people from home make their way through life. I get to say my home town hero is Mike. Cheers.
In the 80’s and 90’s skateboarding and Hip-Hop both developed creatively at the same time. That’s wild for a me to think about. I grew up in the 80’s/90’s and loved both but didn’t realize how special the moment in history was for them. It was the golden age now when I reflect back.
The way he describes them as being “artists” is spot on textbook Gou Miyagi.
Gou is an artist for sure! Super underrated.
I just discovered Gou last week. He’s an artist for sure
Dude these stories are just phenomenal. Messing around parking lots at night, before anyone knew how big it was going to be...
Mike V lived across the street from my aunt and uncle in Long Beach and they said when he moved he handed out a bunch of boards to neighborhood kids. I was so bummed to visit them for the first time and find out he moved like right before I got there lol.
I'm from LB, what street was this?
@@MaLeVoLeNt7319 lol I don't know what street dude this was like the mid 90's 😂
"he made me do it. i didn't wanna do it" lmfao
This is legendary
I love mike V. he is such a down to earth dude and hereing him talk about design some of the first street boards and hanging with the gonz makes the session i had today feel that much better. nine club you guys know whats up!
Can you imagine being able to say you watched history be made in person lol
Mike's style can be summed up in one word "attack"
Holy crap, Vallely is actually super rad. We all know what we thought, new found respect.
Personally, I was more of a Natas fan than a Gonz fan. Back in the day, Gonz was just a complete opposite to Natas in style, not only skating, but how they dressed and presented themselves. Gonz had this "F U" attitude, where Natas was chill and fluid. Much respect to Gonz and what he has contributed to skateboarding, but Natas will always be my number 1 Skate Hero 🙏 with Mike V in my top 3 😎👍
after seeing him front side kickflip on that bank. we went out and tried it on our apartment's asphalt-- it was just impossible.
😅
Natas was dying out by the late 80s. Gonz got involved with Blind and was used as support base for the next generation to come. He was multi purpose, vert, half pipes and street free flow skating. But jason lee, guy Mariano, rudy Johnson were really the next generation to take off.
@@h.c4898 I dissagree Natas was "dying out". He suffered a pretty major injury and kinda relooked his outlook. He did allot of work in advertising helping promote brands like Quiksilver. Natas was a surfer at heart it reflected in his skating style and he created tricks that are still used today. Natas is timeless and had a style no other has been able to duplicate, rather imitate 🤙😎
Jeff@ clester@
Don't get me wrong he was popular as of mid to late 80s BUT modern street skating took off when Mullen transitioned to street when he joined World industries in 88-89 and other companies such as Life, Blind, Real, Plan B immerged. But Natas was seminal to introducing hand tricks, no complies, wallies that there is no arguing about that. 🙂
@@h.c4898 my skate hero doesn't need to be yours. Natas will always be my number 1 skate hero. He was in the 80's and still is to this day 🤙😎👍
Most candid I’ve ever seen Mike. Nice to see.
Was always fun to skate with Valley at Cheap Skates in PA! His grip tape had Snakeman on it and his fakie Ollies on the Vert ramp were sick!!
That had to be one of the coolest things to witness
Mike V is a Viking
Great highlight so cool to see
My first deck I cut down was a mike v ever slick from television. Maaaan the good ole days
Mike V has HAIR!
Fucking love the content! Keep pushing it out boys
You guys should checkout Street Scott doing a boardslide on the golden gate park 9 stair back in '85. You can find the photo in the April '85 issue of Thrasher. Majorly overlooked/ unrecognized skate history right there.
Get Tom Penny on this show PLEASE! Somebody go find him..wherever he is at in the world. Lol
Such a legend.
Crazy how far we have come... from a mini 5050 to FOY front overcrook el toro. Soooo cool
yes,,,, Thank You, M. Vallely !!
Mike i remember when Gonz had heart to box Tony , Gonz always stood up for Us.... your a Legend Mike , grind and grit is why we love you bro....
grinding the first ever rail def gives me first ever caveman controlled fire vibes
my first handrail was a caveman, come to think of it.
I've lived that era I know what mike is saying. Although I still believe there's room for creativity although a lot more can be explored. "Normal stance" to "Switch stance" to "fluid stance" is I believe is the future to skateboarding.
Gonz, Vallely and Natas, what a potent trio!!!
I've still got my barnyard deck - it's right in front of me. It's totally unrecognizable though cos I cut it down into a little cruiser a few years ago. Man I loved that deck back then.
The first person to 50/50 a handrail was Natas Kaupas.... it's documented.
Most people lose hair when they get older. Mike V put life in reverse and grew hair as he got older.
Mike nailed it. There wasnt a camera around. We were out there finding big drop ins off anything. Launches off crap. Rails rails rails. No camera though. I had a friends sister who had an old car we used to skate off of. We would get our launch ramp and set it up with the car.
People have been grinding hand rails since boards had a tail I mean I wouldn’t be surprised if there were rail grinds in the 70s just less cameras
to whomever left that thumb down, i hereby exile you.
the fifty is in the video Mondo Vision. Shot in NYC in 87, released in 89
Darn I remember Lance always skating the Sears in Alhambra for his Firm company in the 90s.
You should get Tom Penny, Matt Hensley, Jeremy Wray, and John Cardiel. Remember Z Roller Trucks...lol...RLTW
If y'all ever get the Gonz or Jason Lee on the internet may explode
Love he explains the first ever thing
@2:44 I think the summer 87 (or 88?) poweredge has a handrail 50/50 howto with Ed Templeton where he says during the ollie frame: "pray to god that you don't go over" :)
Awesome story
slept on !!!!!
Heard the Mayans skated the first hip and 4 block
Templeton got the first photo, right?
Speaking of barbaric, Vallely’s arms were as damn strong as his legs
He was originally Mr Streetplant.
EdTempleton was the first to 50/50 a rail. Circle A ad.
😂I didn't want to do it I was terrified
THANK YOU Duuuuuuuuuuude 👋🏻😄
incredible
someone needs to talk more about coco santiago PLS!!
deathbowl to downtown has the first 50-50 he did in it
That's right. There is footage - clear footage even - so I'm surprised Mike doesn't remember.
If we don’t ever get a Gonz episode it will be a complete travesty.
im not crying youre crying
all your idols still being cool >
Gonzo goes to New York | Vision Street Wear - Mondo Vision | '89 ---must watch , might be that rail .
NO, it had to be earlier...we were already doing them in Melbourne by then. ''87?
@@isee7668 Of course not in 89, but it could've been the same rail is what i'm implying.
This was cool
so good
We're not worthy! We're not worthy!
The second hand rail grind of all time was a suicide grind man wtf
This is epic shit right here🤙
Who used to watch drive on fuel tv
❤️
Need a j lee nine club
9:40 Absorb art, then create art...
Except Mark himself said Street Scott did it first?
It is a skater to skate a rail or is it a rail to be grinded
why hasn't the gonz bin on the show
Damn he looks weird with short hair, I’ve only ever known him with long hair and a beard or completely bald back in the underground 2 days
All the tricks have been done? Lol.. Um, no.
Not sure i like Mike's look... I remember the grungy, long haired punk
Mike V is rad. true og
I thought Ed templeton was the first one to skate a handrail
Natas and gonz were first on film
