Kristian I remember watching you with my closest skater friends at rollerworld in late 00/ early 01. Your demo pumped me up and I ollied that 8 set out front for my first time. That was a pivotal moment for my skating confidence. A night I’ll never forget. I was born in 86, started skating in 99.

Doug brown!

Can you get Doug Brown on?

yooooo, we should collab, longboarding jesus is still alive XXDDD we could talk wake and skate which got us the lakewood skatepark, or, just delve into the rumors and truths from the guy two tre flipped the post office 9 on a longboard.

Kristian hit me up I've got some good stories about you skating with us at roller world and behind Ace hardware in Twinsburg when you front lipped the rail on the second try. This was when you were ON INVISIBLE.

so sick!

🔥 CLEVELAND🔥 Yes dude this guy is actually from Cleveland. Jefferson neighborhood and Parma where Cyril Jackson is from. This guy is great representation 🤙🏻

Prolific Joe pushed Jay off the ramp because trunk industries. I wasn't there I think but the daggers told me. So it must be true. Then we played kickball.

Tyler Zinn is the reason Record Rev first carried skateboards.

We had to go to the Commie bookstore, Revolution Books on Coventry to get the latest issue of Thrasher. Also, Chris Lenhart rules!

i have some Garth pics from the Cleveland Underground on stage from the mid 80's. Where to?

We had three crews in Tucson in the late 80s which included the SK8MEN and JR SK8MEN, the WHIPLASH Crew, and the BUMHEADS. Garth and I have had bits and pieces of this convo before; I came into punk and skating about a year behind Garth in the Southern MI/Kalamazoo scene (‘81 - ‘85)

Yeah Garth!! Dropping "Groin". Not enough. I wanna fill in some blanks. This one's sweet. Team Plasma 4 life. Skate Dick House

Wow!

I love Cleveland !

Yeha

👏👏👏

Go Brett ! Sent this to your nephew Leom !

BURNER

This was really great guys! Always wanted to hear some of these stories!

There was a time when all my friends were riding Beer City blanks.

Radio bird man! BT you rock!

Great pod! No skaters from Brook Patk? 😂

🤙🏽 the triangle was epic. I was a ten year old grom in 1990 when I first learned to drop in on the ten foot quarter pipe. Great show, & great stories!

Brett was and is the real deal.

Impett Park is my neighborhood. Skated it in the 80's and now live 2 minutes from it.

Good show and podcast man a old fan still and a old 50s skater from Wooster Ohio and Orrville Ohio I enjoy hearing Cleveland and Ohio skateboarding history I also use too skate at old Ohio parks from the past too

Good show brings back a lot a good memories. Kris do you remember skating the Turney\Dunham plaza bump in maple hts?

ooossss

I was 17 when this came out time flys one of favorites haven't seen this in years till today.

I know who you are dude! Your 88 shoes were one of my favorite shoes back in the day

I bought this video on VHS. Kristian's part is still Rad As Fuck in 2024!

Can’t believe they cut the guy!!! The TM is probably some kook that doesn’t skate!

Team Insanity

Young guns thrash punk.. Skate in destroy thats life..

Ha Bill Danforth!

Great episode! I had no idea street plant was done. good thing I bought a couple skate rat boards a while back to keep me riding till spring of 2025. Look forward to seeing the new board!

Blockhead is making some of the sickest shapes. Really loving their boards and their vibe. You joining them is a super rad fit.

Jay is the man!

What? No "how I almost died in Youngstown" stories? Kristian stood out - just had that perfect balance of beast/ease. Damn - your story is like my own. Blue collar AF, getting jumped, but having the post-industrial shred scene and endless suburbs to expand into meant everything. You know how it was - there were micro-crews all over, richer dudes, dead-ass broke weirdo crews, inner-city crews. It was just like a f-ing choose your own adventure book. And launch ramps, man... back then, those were like totems that just brought the gnar and built a lot of connections. I know we hung out a few times at Section 8 or Half Pipe Mikes or somethings. Always a big inspiration. You and Dave Kaule (Pittsburgh). Best of health and happiness. Gratitude.

The black label polska deck totally represented Cleveland in my mind and i was hyped to ride it
