An Hour With Dressen

We had an hour to kill on our way to the airport, so stopped by to catch up with Eric Dressen; longtime Uppercut ambassador and skateboarding icon from the mid eighties, into the nineties.
Cruising his place to shoot the breeze, driveway hang and check out a small sample of his extensive board collection was an absolute pleasure. Something we'd been meaning to do for a long time.
Kick back. Relax and enjoy this 3 minute mini-doco on one of our fave skateboarders. We hung on his every word. And the dude still has great hair, too!

That first Everslick was one of my favorite decks as well.

[@i-never-look-at-replies-lol]

[@uppercutdeluxe]

*insert clapping*

[@user-ed8zf5zv5j]

It's a good thing it's not actually an hour's worth of footage, I don't think any of us can stand seeing Eric strutting around lookinng so sexy...

[@billymullins1357]

I used to have that Dressen Boys of Summer deck, was a great shape, like 9" wide with 15" wheelbase.

[@uppercutdeluxe]

darn good shape, he held onto his for that very reason

[@wendaltvedt4673]

Dressen still has awesome hair

[@bfmchalfdead9804]

Icon and the reason I got into transition skating

[@wendaltvedt4673]

His mini ramp part in Speed Freaks is one of the great video parts ever. Actually, his entire part is.
