Tony Hawk Gives Skating Advice & Jason Ellis Meets Russell Crowe!

[@KBSimRacing]

I love seeing kids learning to skate. A while ago me and my friends were warming up at a skatepark. We saw a kid getting a bit frustrated on his skateboard and got his scooter off his mum, we stopped him said not to give up and taught him to drop in on the 1/4. He was stoaked and had the biggest smile on his face after. Then a brother and sister looked shy about rolling around so we taught them how to drop in too. Both kids and the dad were stoaked too. It made us happy and gave us good karma for our filming session. Kids are the future for skating and ya have to encourage it.

[@OhighOSkater]

This is one of the coolest things about the skate community. Skaters might look mean sometimes, but I’ve found that they’re some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. Pretty much always willing to help somebody learn. I love it. Good work

[@prod.byzaha954]

thats how its done and been done! the older "kids" teach the younger. I even remember when the older locals would help me as well. it might not seem like much but you're showing them a sense of community, comradery, fortitude and that they have the capability to do things they couldn't even imagine.. all it took was that one session

[@seanmckelvey6618]

100%. I remember the older dudes helping me out when I first started skating, even to the point of giving me hand-me-down gear. I was intimidated as hell when I started going to the skatepark but seeing how willing people were to help out the newcomers was really reassuring and made me feel comfortable really fast, it also helped me learn faster because of their encouragement. From then I made sure I did the same thing for the younger kids. It's great seeing them excited about skating and that helps keep me motivated as well.

[@rustypotatos]

Bro thank you

[@michaelhxx]

Dude I seriously can’t get enough of this fucking show.

[@jasons7580]

I LOVE THIS. NEVER STOP.

[@marvinshenk]

In like 1994 I went on an Element skate trip down to the Tampa Pro Contest and Jason Ellis was one of the guys sharing a room with me, Andy Stone, and Reese Forbes. Ellis was never in the room the whole time. And Tony, he's been the biggest ambassador for skating there ever was. I remember him coming to Washington DC around 1994 to do a demo where he was paid almost nothing to skate in a convention center for people that could care less about skating, but he did the demo and was psyched to be getting paid to skate. Tony went through some really hard years financially in the 90's. That video game helped turn stuff around for him for sure, but he really stuck with skating when it was not really rewarding him. I love both of these guys.

[@BottleBrassMonkey]

BEING AN AUSSIE SKATER, WHO LIVED THROUGH THE 87-88 CRAZE, TO HEAR HIS LEE RALPH AND GREGOR RANKINE STORIES ARE SO AMAZING, REALLY AMAZING TO HEAR...

[@euankirby5158]

“He’s going through a hard time” Duane has had a hard time ever since he came out the womb 😂

[@charlieduvall6463]

Pretty sure he chose to live the hard life. Live and learn, Duane has lived many lives. I hope he's doing well these days.

[@thedonofthsht76-58]

@@charlieduvall6463 eh he didnt choose it. Noone chooses to shoot up. Every day( the first time is the choice though)

[@-Jess.-]

This is why he didn't want to do it. This guy is responsible for his mood swings, and how he lashes out at people. He didn't choose to be an addict. He likely had these issues before he started using. He has a chance to recover, but he has to be willing to commit himself to that job. The absence of malice in addressing the facts of the illnesses is not the same as an absence of holding him accountable. He's wrecking his life all on his own w/o "cancel culture" taking a whack at it, and nothing of cancel culture is going to be an incentive for him to get clean.

[@speedhead]

first guy that popped in my head

[@-Ricky_Spanish-]

I saw the US Bombs in the mid 90's and he was so wasted he passed out on stage. It wasn't fun or funny, it was fucking sad to watch.

[@fi7440]

I bought a complete board from Jason Ellis on one of the Münster Monster Masterships for a few bucks, with Bones bearings and all the bells and whistles...shredded that thing to pieces!

[@lamasu]

Man, I'm 36 now and i stopped skating regularly when I was 20. I got heavy into Jiu jitsu so skating and getting hurt that way wasn't an option anymore. But now I'm slowly getting back into it and man, I have missed having Tony Hawk in my mind and in my life. Everything about him radiates positivity and just optimal optimal, that's the only i can explain it, everything with him is optimal. Like talk about a guy who has "stayed the course" and is "all in." He is still a great role model for anyone looking to succeed.

[@user-um3wj1uy8c]

by far the most underrated podcast of all time. always leaves me wanting more. tony and jason are both GOAT humans in general.

[@danzonJ]

You both are Golden! I even enjoy the ads. The only podcast that listens to the ads.

[@OhighOSkater]

This podcast is the perfect way to start the morning, before a skate session. It always gets me hyped

[@RollingGames90420]

I been WakenBake to each episode so far! and i love it!

[@darude]

Ben Schroeder mentioned... I had a Schroeder board in the 90's.

[@mattgoodell7015]

This show brings me right back to the days when cops would tackle you on the sidewalk and steal your board, gawd it was fun back then! Makes me wanna get on a board.. Then i remember im 46 with a rotator cuff injury and a messed up knee and i gotta let it go... But i am LOVING the pod so far guys, keep up the great work!!

[@masaharumorimoto4761]

I woke up freezing with the AC dumping cold air on me, turned on the podcast and heard Tony talking about AC dumping cold air on him and I felt much better.

[@JahEerie]

So stoked every time I see that Hurling board on the wall 🇮🇪🏑🛹

[@samuelmagilocusts2870]

“Never spit on another mans skateboard” I will take that lesson to heart

[@hunterthedon19]

You guys are now on my podcast rotation I listen to at work. Thanks for the awesome stories!

[@colonelicecreamcone3981]

This is the perfect thing I wake up at 5 o'clock there's a Podcast I listen to it while I get ready for work and on my way to work Then I clock in a good mood because of you guys

[@masaharumorimoto4761]

Yup, it's a fantastic morning listen!

[@PoetOnTheRun]

The Young Ones....was amazingly funny. Rik Mayall was genius. And I saw Lemmy too on that show...fantastic.

[@jrodgers211]

My first intro to Motörhead was thps 3, same with del the funkee homosapien. I’d play those 2 on repeat while playing.

[@B.E.C.K.]

Great show. Great chemistry. Great stories from 2 legends. Thanks guys

[@jodo1971]

Back in 86, my buddy had the tony hawk pro model, I had some vision piece o crap. I was very jealous!

[@Jared-C]

You two are the best together. I remember that Ellis/Lemmy interview, crazy he took cabs everywhere....

[@BobWeaver3000]

Boylan's Black Cherry! clearly a man of class and exquisite culture edit: AND a Young Ones fan... epic

[@thecomplex6805]

New fav podcast super relatable as a non skater

[@werdup3000]

Wish there was a cartoon animation to this story 46:53 😂

[@GivesAMinute]

I remember the Hosoi quote (still have the VHS tape of that comp somewhere) but he says he stubbed his toe in practice. Me and my crew used to quote that ad nauseam back in the day. Also the host (Jerry Sont?) "Going off like prawns in the sun". It was a huge thing to see a skate comp on national TV, even if it was cringe.

[@dr.celsius886]

19:47 Skating will never die. But this is how you fucking make sure it dosent. Good on Tony for doing that stuff

[@declangallagher7618]

Loving this show, this and the jason ellis show, the patreon episodes as well. Love to see Jason on the Internet where we can hear him world wide not just America!

[@nhdyz]

Thank you guys !! Listening all the way from Montréal🇨🇦💝

[@amedeoconta]

Damn it!!!! I livw in seattle and am going home to California for the first time in 4 years... was looking forward to the heat. Dang....

[@danielwestereng155]

YOU GUYS ARE GREAT!

[@mattkrueger3313]

You two are killing it!

[@therealjd1503]

Great show guys, really enjoyed!!

[@AngelisaJosalisa]

these stores are so rad . at our local park the other day some women where having an aerobics class and some guy was like you belong over there not here with us (in the vert section). and being the only woman at the park not there with a child i just went home. but i'm over it now. people can be harsh but who cares really. 🤙❤️

[@OhighOSkater]

I’m sorry you had to deal with that, but please don’t think all skaters feel that way. I for one appreciate the courage it takes for anybody to come to a park to learn or whatever. Man, woman or any other gender identity. All are welcome imho

[@Sellbow]

Jason Ellis is so unapologetically himself that you can't help but back him. Hey guys, if you're cold you can buy a hoodie, you don't need a snowboarding jacket. Also base layer does me a solid. Your friend from Kansas City.

[@CraigMcCormickDesign]

"Barry Zaritsky" what a blast from the past name! You should get Barry on the show as a guest to rate and review slams and get his diagnosis on how to recover from the slams 🛹

[@JahEerie]

Rodney Mullen's Physio/Guru/Spiritual advisor 😉

[@AwareWolfOnWheels]

Jason, literally everyone in England discovered Motorhead the same way because when the Young Ones was airing, they featured a lot of bands that weren't well known at that time. Ace of Spades came out in 1980 but they weren't on the show until 1984 and believe it or not the song was not an instant hit back then and only reached no15 in the charts for a few weeks.

[@B.Lynck92]

Love the show! Keep it up! Greets from Belgium ✌️

[@SteeleWars]

Timely SoCal weather report! Love the show.

[@jibiroo]

Love you back!!! Rock on!!! I helped build Skate Street and Sk8ed the Vert w/ Ellis a bunch. He was giving me a Clinic on Backside Airs. Such a Cool Dude!!! Thanx Ride On!!! By the way while I’m “namedropping I went to High School w/ Josh Brolin so I Sk8ed with Corey before he was Corey. Love the Lemmy stories he was a true Legend!!!

[@FuriKuri666]

I too first found Lemmy and Motörhead by watching the Young ones hahahaha 😄🤘

[@makepa_5082]

[@JahEerie]

Rad show lads. The Young Ones introduced me to Motorhead too 🤣🤣🤣🤘

Good job! Tony, can I contact you? I'm working on something interesting for skate world too!

[@rosecity_chris]

"Its California and its cold" meanwhile I'm sitting outside in Portland, its 113 with a hot breeze.

[@ericjulien7678]

Word of the day 'Unapologetically'.

[@ritchiequerubin6117]

How about having Hosoi as a guest?

[@neomaxi_zoomdweebi]

Guilty as charged with the stories! Tony, talk about your perspective with the whole Pappas brothers and Tas Pappas first to do the 900 thing.

[@thewastelandsoldier601]

Skateboarding in 120 degrees here. 🥵🔥

[@thedonofthsht76-58]

Geoff Rowley was the first to have a motorhead shoe way back!!

[@charlieduvall6463]

Haha I had some fool spit on me when I was really young skating 6th or 7th grade. Pretty sure he fell on hard times too. Ha ha. Yep I never forgot that shit.

[@markwithrow1141]

I fucking love you too guys! The stories are awesome

Skip ad read---> 19:39 Skip 2nd ad read--> 30:59

[@dr.celsius886]

Josh Brolin was in The Goonies, released in 1985 (he played the main characters older brother, Brandon). Thrashin was released in 1986. I have no idea when filming took place, but regardless hes been a star since the mid 80s. Also he had a minor role in The Avengers movies from Marvel.

[@AngelisaJosalisa]

yes Goonies never say die ❤️🤙

[@DubleG246]

this podacst is fucking amazing !!

[@mfstrive]

This will be great once they get more fluid with podcasting but already a good time!

[@fergalfarrelly8545]

Wow teritorial shit is nothing i ever experienced but i grew up in BC in canada. Sounds like gangster shit. Surfing must be different with few good wave breaks and the need to line up maybe...

[@johnnybanes1389]

Duane Peters is who spit on him... I remember Tony telling that story...

[@Late20sSkateboarder]

I was at my local skatepark by myself and a dad and his 2 kids were skating and learning and after, they came up and apologized if they were in my way and a bother- I was like what?? They had apparently been told off by skaters before. Skateparks and waves are there for everyone- if anyone tells you that you don’t belong, fuck them.

[@dotsmusichicago]

The Goonies was Josh Brolin's first movie, not Thrashin'.

[@robertcrystals]

What's up with Hawks eyebrows?

[@ununseptium7961]

Lemmy wouldn't have minded that story. RIP

[@hydroflows]

OI!!! I GO CAMPING FOR TWO MF DAYS AND Y'ALL ALREADY ON EPISODE 3 GD Y'ALL QUICK WITH THE EPISODES!
