Y'all. If you haven't seen Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall off.....DOOOO IT. It is SO FUCKING good and definitely a rollercoaster of emotions backed by a phenomenal soundtrack.
This 100. I grew up idolizing Tony and it provided so much context for the man behind the myth. Basically cried skater tears at how rad the whole thing was. As soon as Rodney started talking about Tony and their friendship I lost it. 🤙
Hope I don’t get clowned for this, but I got gnarly anxiety and this show is SO helpful. They just have such good chemistry, and seem like such good dudes. Thanks for the show guys!
I hope you are doing alright w your anxiety, just know you aren't alone, we all have our ways of dealing w it and that is super sick that this podcast helps you.
Hey Tony, thanks for mentioning Sin Egelja and John Fox. The two of them had a huge influence on my skateboarding career as a kid and eventual pro. I first saw Sin skate during a contest at my local skatepark here in Five Dock in 1980. I became an instant fan, and within a year he started to mentor me at North Ryde Skatepark. Sin also surprised me with a home visit when I was 13 to take me to get my first sponsorship with OZI Skates. For the 6 months prior to his passing, Sin and I were working on a new shoe company. I miss the big dork every day. Fox was instrumental in getting the Coca-Cola Skate Team together in late 86, and gave me my first job doing demos on that team, the Big Day Out tours between 1992 and 2012, and many other side gigs. Speaking of the BDO, the year you brought up during the podcast was 1997, not 95. An old Sydney pro named David Clancy filmed the Sydney show and perhaps Brisbane. He only ever gave me footage of myself, which is on my TH-cam channel. If you get in touch with him, he may still have footage of everyone else. Apart from Rick Thorne, Mike Frazier was also on that tour. Maybe Dennis McCoy too. I have an old Hawk model that all of you signed.
The Documentary was awesome Tony! Thank you for never throwing in the towel! It's unreal that the X games 900 was 22 yrs. ago! Seems like yesterday watching that infamous feat in sports history! Respect to all the skaters that pushed the limits!
I now live in San Marcos but I’m originally from Oceanside and graduated Oside High in ‘09. It’s such a trip hearing you guys talk about Oside and the high school. Great talk. You guys are my new favorite podcast. 🍕🍕🍕👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
You guys are awesome, Tony I just watched the documentary this weekend absolutely amazing and quick side note today for the first time I practiced dropping in at 36 years old, I swear I spent 40 minutes falling down and 41 minutes getting up. Love what you guys do keep it up
Love this show! Such good dynamics! Ellis you are the man, good questions, keeps the dialog alive, and stays quiet even when interupted. Love yall! /Sweden
Docu was awesome! Rodney is a real genius of or time and Lance is Timeless. 2hrs wasn't enough, was left wanting more.. Also, this Show is what Monday's should be!
I love this podcast Ellis stop being so down on yourself you're famous to me I followed your entire career I'm 50 and I am a huge Jason Ellis fan skateboarding radio I've loved your entire career.
There was a kid on Shark Tank that made a business out of that "skateboard that fits in your locker" idea. I think the company is even called Locker Boards.
This was such a good podcast! This could of went on all day and I wouldn’t have complained for a second! I was more surprised when Ellis said it’s over lol
Mcsqueeb! I think that’s what people eventually called that hard style. I’m in my mid 40s and was a hard core skate grom in the mid and late 80s and definitely had that hair cut, much to my parents chagrin. Im rocking that style for 8th grade year book photo, even had the bangs dyed blond (I have almost black hair). I’ll my sake friends had some variation of that cut at the time.
What's up everyone hope you all crush this week! What better way to start it than with our favorite podcast . If you haven't watched the doc do it NOW!!! Inspiring does not even begin to describe this film!
Why is there a skateboard on the wall made up of a couple Irish hurling sticks with a set of trucks and wheels mounted to them?? Did the Braille house send that your way or whatsgoing on with that one?
I got one of the worst copies of the McSqueeb ever. I was like 11 and I went to a local barber who was probably in his 70’s. I asked for “the Tony Hawk”. He had no idea so I tried to explain. I didn’t know both sides of the head were shaved though. I came home with one side of my head shaved. I actually thought it looked cool until I got home and my mom pointed out how horrible it was…then I cried 😂
every freakn show is fierce . i love the way yall inspire an make my day great . anyway keep the episodes coming an Jason u going freakn get the 540 i have no dout . an documentry i seen it on hbo and it was great an made me go back to old memories an i still have NSA flyers an vision sk8 police stickers and the doc made me also happy an damit toney almost made me cry u a^&h*%^& lol i seriously loved doc. much love an respect to both u
Sucks hearing about people trying to get stuff signed. I would love one day to get my board from the 80s signed. Also I know for a fact that there are people who sell the information to those people and popurati for LAX. I use to spend a ton of time working there and they would have the list and would have all the different people's pictures coming in that day at Lax.
The Devil Lock came out way before Flock of Seguil's. The Misfits formed in 1977 and the devil lock came shortly after. The devil lock wasn't a hip idea following mainstream culture. It was was totally out of left field based on early rock and roll/ Rockabilly icons. Flock of Seguil's hair was just a extention of mainstream new wave styles.

Who tf clowns you for anxiety. Literally everyone experiences it
That organic chamomile tea takes the edge off pretty good too
I hope you are doing alright w your anxiety, just know you aren't alone, we all have our ways of dealing w it and that is super sick that this podcast helps you.
Jason and Tony are my mentors through a difficult time, and descent into age. ❤ I feel great listening to them.
Hell yeah

These two are more engrained in my life than I ever realized. Thanks for starting this podcast to continue that.
The doc is amazing! Congrats! Really well done by Sam Jones. Gonna rewatch the bones brigade by Stacey...
just watched it last night, fucking EPIC!
I loved how Ellis laughs when Tony mentions getting injured, a true friend!
Love the stories!
Whoa does Darude skate?
@@fizzthewizard Well, there's skating and, umm, skating... :) Here's me doing my humble stuff instagram.com/stories/highlights/17891027717467694/
Big ups Darude
Birdman , until the wheels fall off is legit badass
I watched it 5 times this weekend . Get better bro , love ya ellis
Love the documentary took me back to my childhood , and Tony being my favorite skater then learned some things I didn't know.
Can you guys get Gonz on or Natas..recently saw Jason Lee interview on nine club..Andy Anderson would be great as well
Gonz would be epic
I'd move mountains to get a double feature of Rodney and Andy
Never enough gonz interviews. Dude is an absolute legend
The Documentary was awesome Tony! Thank you for never throwing in the towel! It's unreal that the X games 900 was 22 yrs. ago! Seems like yesterday watching that infamous feat in sports history!
Respect to all the skaters that pushed the limits!
I watch a lot of podcast but this one is my favorite. The true friendship you guys have comes through in the content. Much love
Great work (Ellis, Jason. 55:39). So dropping into a vert ramp for a living is a tough gig, even if you're Tony Hawk.
Dude the hbo documentary is savage af ! I loved it and rewatched it with my dad
"Bienvinue à la Awk with Wolf!" Killer 🤣
Awesome !
Great Job Tony & Jason !!

Every episode is gold!
Best stories and always funny.
I love this podcast Ellis stop being so down on yourself you're famous to me I followed your entire career I'm 50 and I am a huge Jason Ellis fan skateboarding radio I've loved your entire career.
There was a kid on Shark Tank that made a business out of that "skateboard that fits in your locker" idea. I think the company is even called Locker Boards.
That haircut was everywhere in the late 80s. All over in st Louis Missouri. Loved the New DOC!!!!
best part of waking up on a monday is this podcast. Thanks guys.
I live in Whittier! Wish I could've been there when you were! Great show
Loved the doc. Made me rewatch the bones brigade doc. Any chance of getting Jason Lee?
This was such a good podcast! This could of went on all day and I wouldn’t have complained for a second! I was more surprised when Ellis said it’s over lol
In the Midwest in the 80s Custom Cuts called it "the skater cut"
I could listen to you guys for hours
Great show guys if Jason could get Sluggo on that would be sick keep up the good work much love guys
Loved the doc. You guys should try and get Jason Lee on. Loved him on the Nine Club.
"Like and describe"! 😂
Love the BDO ,TISM talk guys , rip Ken West , great times mid 90s
That vert ramp under the bridge in amsterdam júst got renewed! Y'all should come skateboarding
Back in the days I was riding there an old school blue Tony Hawk deck with that skull in red.. Still have it somewhere..
the haircut discussion was hilarious. Misfits -1977 Flock of Seagulls - 1978. you owe Glen an apology. great show.
59:00 Tony mentioned Barry Abrook, he taught me Graphic Design at college A-levels! Him and his brother are ex-pros for Zorlac
Excellent as always, gents. Thanks!
ngl 1:14:52 is the most badass early 2000s thing I've ever heard
Mcsqueeb! I think that’s what people eventually called that hard style. I’m in my mid 40s and was a hard core skate grom in the mid and late 80s and definitely had that hair cut, much to my parents chagrin.

42, had a mcsqueeb when i was 11, I am glad there are no pictures of that time! Haha
@@theramplocal nah man, you want to document that! My parents still have that photo of me in the house. My 13 year old is entertained by it ha.
I remember Powell & Peralta had a line of stubby boards back in the day.
#THTH I hid the first one ever here in Australia. It was fun to be a part for a few Easters and understand why it stopped.
Today's my bday love you guys! Til The Wheels Fall Off is great too!
What's up everyone hope you all crush this week! What better way to start it than with our favorite podcast . If you haven't watched the doc do it NOW!!! Inspiring does not even begin to describe this film!
"Like and describe" is epic...good catchphrases always come by accident
Jason always seems so thrilled when reading about the sponsors. Haha
Bucky had some sick stale 540's. The ones when he was in 'Ban This' video.
The agony of y’all talking about your fashion trend setting days 😆 hilarious 😂
I was in that Big Day Out crowd. Tony did 10 McTwist back to back.
37:37 the Birdman gets told lol
sounds like the stalefish needs to be a board graphic and soon!!!
Do a miller flip to change things up a bit, its just a thought, you got this Wolf!!!
what a way to start a week!. hawk v wolf 🤘
I HOPE THAT DELAMED SKATEBOARD YOU SWITCHED OUT SHOWS UP ON EBAY AND THEN SOMEONE WAITS FOR YOU AT THE AIRPORT WITH IT
Great episode guys! Keep em coming :)
James Kelch interview could be an interesting perspective on 90s skating in SF. EMB for Life 🔥
can we see the footy of the 5-stair ollie?
Any chance you guys will ever get Lance Mountain on?
1977 Misfits - Flock of Seagulls 1979 (Misfits FTW)
One of the Top five episodes EASILY
haha the pony tail triplets morphing into one person 😂👍
Very cool to ollie a 5 set with your son and congrats in the groupey! 👍
If I had to describe this episode it would be loquacious, buoyant, indie rock, quasi-autobiographical and purple.
In the 90s I was all about the Rick Howard. Khaki pants and a button up shirt
Does anyone know what Birdhouse deck that is in the background above the center of the table.
Why is there a skateboard on the wall made up of a couple Irish hurling sticks with a set of trucks and wheels mounted to them?? Did the Braille house send that your way or whatsgoing on with that one?

Loved the battle commander
FS Stalefish over a hip is just heaven.
Another great one!!! Ride on!!!
Sucks hearing about people trying to get stuff signed. I would love one day to get my board from the 80s signed.
Also I know for a fact that there are people who sell the information to those people and popurati for LAX. I use to spend a ton of time working there and they would have the list and would have all the different people's pictures coming in that day at Lax.
I am 50 years old now, and seriously, I am stoked I can still ollie. I crash now, and weird, it doesn't hurt until 2 days later, what?
Greatest quote of the episode. Durst did both the nookie and a Madonna
Good episode 🙌🙌
Describe it. Live it.
Let’s goooooo!!!!
fantastic episode lads
The skater "flop"! Did Tony invent that haircut?
Best episode yet!
2 questions is jason drinking bundaberg brewed drinks and is hawk vs wolf merch available
Haku does sound cool
The Devil Lock came out way before Flock of Seguil's. The Misfits formed in 1977 and the devil lock came shortly after. The devil lock wasn't a hip idea following mainstream culture. It was was totally out of left field based on early rock and roll/ Rockabilly icons. Flock of Seguil's hair was just a extention of mainstream new wave styles.
This. Devil lock totally came first by at least 3 years. I always saw it as a combination of Eddy Munster and Elvis.
Someone stole my Kevin Staab "Genie" board never got to put wheels on it!
Ellis you should host a BATB when you're up at the Berrics some time!
Yall should hit up the braille house I know some people don't like that channel and blah blah but seems like a decent park and great folks there
Such a good episode!
