      Very true. I live in an isolated town of 2000 people and I am the only person who skates. These guys are literally everything to me: motivation, inspiration, mentoring and fellowship. Lately, things have been a bit rough for me. Without the likes of Chris and Andy I probably wouldn't be here.

    The world needs more people like Christopher Hiett and Andy Anderson (and Nka for that matter). True beacons of positivity and creativity.

    So rad to see them bringing back the big boards. I hated when popsicles came out in the early 90s but reluctantly went with it for 20 years until all the reissues came out. Seeing skaters shred on them now is so sick and Hiett is one of the best…and he’s such a great person to show how punk skating used to be…and should be….before it sold out to X games and Mountain Dew.

    To Chris: The first time I saw him (was on this channel, I think) he stood out just because of his punk rockiness. I am a bourgeois punk. I admit it. But When I saw him skate... I was like: yup... He's legit. He dresses like he skates, he skates like he dresses. HE stood out by being different. He's the anti-hero. Love him!

    Pro tip: if you're going to go out and intentionally buy a utility knife for cutting grip tape & stickers, buy one that has a quick change feature for the blades. It's worth the extra $4-$5, they store a half dozen extra blades & can be changed in seconds.
