Neckface is a legend. Love his studio. So sick. Let's see Beagle's spot next.

[@memorysometimers3067]

And I find his voice and choice of words is just like he’s PHELPS’ cousin or son maybe. Love It. “Gotta get back in the fukkin chair”

[@WhuDhat]

There is a video where beagle chills in his front room and shows boxes and boxes and bins and tubs full of little camcorder tapes that are filled with thousands of hours of skating, even has a little registry ledger so he can track and pull clips at request. He shows off his old shake just cams n merch and reminisces for about an hr. I think it was a love letters to skateboarding episode here on KZbin

[@memorysometimers3067]

Hell yeah Neck, and shoutout to Rye as well, this shit made my day fellas.

I really look forward to this series. Seeing the geniuses behind all of the sick art in skating is gonna be epic 🔥

[@reportedstolen3603]

I remember being at Back 2 the Banks 2007, NeckFace was there and I got my board signed by him.. was a stoked 12 yr old

"The first thing you gotta do is go into it thinking that you're gonna, you're just happy to do it and everything else will follow and if it doesn't you're still happy that you're doing it."

[@derikkrobles13]

I needed this. I'm currently living the struggling artist life, trying to get a griptape company off the ground & seeing that regular day grind & hustle CAN pay off is uplifting

[@TylerDelaneyReed]

Good on ya dude! Keep hustlin! I quit my day job about a year ago to become a full time musician, some days it sucks and I’m a “starving artist” but the grind is worth it. I’m getting by and I’m happier than I’ve ever been. “If you love something enough, you’re gonna do it regardless” - neckface ✌🏽

[@onlockmobileskateshop113]

Man I'd love his art studio. So much inspiration on the walls. Such a mad space to work. And a mini ramp out back. Damn. Shout out Neckface!

[@angelowkey4real]

Too sick fam this what workspace should be for creatives

[@commentator2.0]

Neck is such an inspiration man. Love his attitude

[@jesusbaltazar3524]

One of my biggest inspirations for a long time. You’re the man Nasty Neck!!!

Neck is such a sweetheart. Thank you for kicking ass.

[@gabrielperry1240]

I play guitar and skate and I’m still figuring out what I like in both subjects

[@diogocsr1]

I love you NeckFace, I really appreciate your creations! Peace Bro!!!

[@brettsnowball]

Thrasher, pleeeease keep making more of these videos. It's really cool seeing other designers offices, and how they work at home or in studio.

[@garrywhite13371337]

Wish art teachers in school were this aware and cool🔥

[@yadayadayehayeha]

never knew him until the recent Sb dunk collaboration and watching his ideas, life experiences all that truly inspired me to draw and having that humor in life, never a dull moment in times of crisis. Neckface, thanks!

[@Saygoodbye130]

Dang. Inspirational ! Thanks Neck!

[@HelloWorld-bo1uu]

I still have the '06 Thrasher issue he was interviewed for and saw him at a show attended by Reynolds himself. Guy's a legend.

[@klass8359]

Y'all got me waiting for the next episode of this serie!!!!

[@daveskillerbread8783]

this series absolutely rocks need more of these

[@hb15577]

Pushing originality is super important in art, I like how he's pushing guys to embrace their own shit. Art is so stale when everyone is just replicating instead of expressing your own ideas

Neckface, I've been skateboarding for 40 years, I'm 48. This video of you talking about you doing your shit got me super stoked, because I knew your name but not much about you, and now I know. Did you do the E-man guest board for Creature?

[@khannarmurr]

[@goobah1389]

[@johnm3946]

Even if it's just getting by, he's got respect from all us awesome skaters. Neckface will never be on the doormat.

[@MycoMatty]

Dude he’s not just getting by lol he’s done pieces for Travis Barker and shit and his art isn’t cheap by any means. I’m sure it took a lot of tough times to get there but he’s chillin now.

[@tomalophicon]
