BRIAN ANDERSON'S "LANNIBUG" FILM

B.A. comes out the other side of quarantine with a full part that encapsulates what we all love about skateboarding: having fun with the friends that you love.
From Brian:
Greetings to Planet Earth & the Universe, thank you for being here. Paulgar and I started filming for this project shortly after Easter of 2020. Paul had been filming Fred Gall in the Tri State area for at least a year at that time, and during quarantine we were all so grateful to have our crew in New Jersey to safely skate away from most people.
Bondo for breakfast, concrete, brooms, towels, propane torch, shovels, skate tool, gasoline, driver’s license, credit card, cash, and a sense of humor.
The last year and a half has been extremely difficult for us all, living through a global pandemic. I feel so fortunate to have had skateboarding, the great outdoors, and my friends to get through it. In January of 2020, Paul’s wife (and our dear friend) Alanna passed away. She will always be with us, coursing through our souls as we live out our lives. Like all of our loved ones who have began their journey into whatever it is that happens after this life, she would want us to keep going. We send our sincere condolences to her family and the thousands of colorful friends she adored, and we dedicate this film to her, Lannibug.
We hope this skateboarding video/film endeavor brings people good energy, and motivation to keep skating, doing your art, reading, writing, and just plain immersing yourself whenever possible in what you love about life. Alanna would want that, thank you to everyone.
Enjoy!
- Brian Anderson

[@protestthisyouloser1093]

[@LurkKlerk]

Aging like a fine wine. So siked BA seems to be living his best life.

[@brendanlynch1365]

Brian still has that relaxed flow in his style from the Welcome to Hell days. Pure fun!

[@marcelboogaard3809]

I love the way everything Brian does looks like it’s slo-mo. So smooth.

[@bleachvisionTV]

Stoked to see Uncle Fred cameo!!! Thanks for this BA & Ace!!!

[@ChristianRaymondFilms]

[@JK..INFX.D....]

Freddy looks healthy and WAY lighter on his feet ! he's looking 2004 Fred!

[@wegothefunk]

Sobriety will do that to you

[@MrLurkin4life]

This part rules. It's rare these days to see parts from skaters i grew up idolizing. There needs to be more parts like this, just skating. Who cares if all the tricks aren't "bangers" i just like seeing. my fav skaters skate.

[@Jeremyramone]

The Jesus and Mary Chain !!!!!! Best band!

[@drippyscratchcat]

Ooh!! That’s the Burden Lake pool in Upstate NY!! I haven’t skated there in like 20 plus years!! My fuel pump on my first car ever (32 years ago,) died way back in those woods while we’re skating. Me and the crew had to push it all the way out to the country club just to get it towed away. WOW!! Memories, all alone in the moonlight….hahaaaa!! Lol. Many fond memories of youth this sure brings back. Still skating too!!

[@drippyscratchcat]

Awesome job skating, filing and editing Boyeeeez!! Thank You. I’m gonna go skate the park right now.

[@charloschalvan141]

Freddy Gall forever!!!! BA just looks so elegant and dignified against such a gritty background. Somehow he dressed exactly as each spot looks. How could someone make a safety vest look so damn cool?

[@turtleboypurp]

that 180 no comply at the beginning was casual af

[@spacecaserecords1204]

I was childhood friends with Van Wastell. When he was in NYC he'd email me photos of him and Alanna. Alanna was a bit older, had been around different scenes, and exposed him to new stuff like West German film directors and music. After Van passed, I met Alanna a few times. She gave me a copy of Gnar Gnar. Alanna was a positive influence on Van and I'm saddened they're both gone.

[@tomsteen5342]

Embrace the crust!

[@samrose3205]

Trust in crust

[@69DildoPileup]

[@kevinmoyles5424]

Love BA. This is so gorgeous. RIP Alanna.

[@gorelordzskate-racing-videos]

Freddy's switch 360 was so good

[@benthomas1885]

So stoked on this new footage of Brian Anderson and Fred Gall as well. Both so sick

[@buckodonnghaile4309]

I found this after watching the Jenkem video of Brian buying Fred a new mattress/skating his bowl etc. Two of my favourites

[@iamphilclark2695]

Nothing but time for this! This just looked they enjoyed every second of the process. And BA!!! What can you say, he makes even the most sketchy spots look smooth. QUALITY

[@MisterElement]

Very Touching words from Skateboard Wizard BA....these moving images are VERY inspirational as is the reminder of the passing of loved ones WAY too soon! My condolences to the entire crew and family for your loss of Alanna!! Its crazy how scary it can be when I think of getting up there in age as a shredder and how fragile life truly is....I'm finding a balance of the things BA wisely listed: "...good energy, and motivation to keep skating, doing your art, reading, writing, and just plain immersing yourself whenever possible in what you love about life." MAXIMUM GRATITUDE!!! It also makes me miss the East Coast and the culture of skateboarding that is unique to that part of the world!! Bless Up!!!

[@concavemann666]

Amazing all around. East Coast! Good job Paul and BA, this is a gem

[@raphaelpommier4304]
