NATAS KITTEN REISSUE

We're gonna set up this rad lil Natas Kitten SMA/Santa Cruz reissue with a custom grip job and take it for a rip!

[@AdventuresInSkateboarding]

Loved the edit. The back and forth from the Natas was rad. The blue brip was a nice touch, definitely brought it all together. Stay Rad Sir.

[@radoldrat]

Thank you my friend! Stay Rad! 🛹🐀

[@fernandoramos5659]

SO SICK!🤘🏽 Your fire hydrant part was too good!😂 Love your channel Homie!🤙🏽

[@radoldrat]

Haha that was my best effort 😂😂. Thank you!!

[@poopydonkey]

Anyone else notice the copers on Natas' setup?!? RAD!!!

[@radoldrat]

Super rad!!! 🛹🐀

[@jeremychristensen6860]

Oh my God I love that board!!!! Natas is a God among men!! Such a clean build!! I always wanted the kitten, I had a beat up Natas panther that one of my buddies handed down to me in junior high school when he got a new deck and even though it was in pretty bad condition it was still one of my all time favorite boards. I really hate the economy right now! It's kept me from getting my hands on a Natas like I've wanted for some time. Your videos rock bro!! SHRED till you're DEAD!!!!!!🛹🤘

[@radoldrat]

Man I appreciate all of that!! DM me on instagram I might be able to help you out! Same name on insta as here 🛹🐀

[@scizophrenic2602]

yes!! mad respect for natas always. good job on going back to street skating roots and giving respect where its due.

[@radoldrat]

Yeeeah thank you!! 🛹🐀

[@sonnyrico]

Love the hail natas.. i had a dewain peters deck, pretty simular shape. Really fun jam arround town board with extra soft wheels

[@radoldrat]

I'd love to get my hands on a Duane Peters board!! 🛹🐀

[@MsNatasharox]

I have an OG natural stain kitten deck that im riding. I Also have this black reissue that i will set up. Also have the sunburst reissue for the wall. Have OG purple panther that cant be ridden anymore so have the colorway reissue to set up. Love these boards.

[@gwsports4567]

Had dis deck probably around 89-90 I'm thinking. I was a little bummed on the graphic change at the time but Natas was the man. It was a great street and mini ramp board. Feeling the nostalgia ✌️

[@radoldrat]

Oh yeah, you're right come to think of it I think I was bummed on this graphic when it first came out too haha 🛹🐀

[@whokid187]

Hell yeah, Kapas rules 🤘. Go get on your local fire hydrant.

[@radoldrat]

🤘🤘🤘🤘🛹🐀

[@arielvillaverde9507]

As I'm trying many, many OG 80s shapes of late.. I've found the Natas kitten interesting. Never riden such a pointy board.. but the fat front-foot area is comforting. I do find it chunky though to ride at a park.. but for general street skating (no flips) its super fun (and stable) My sweet spot for street really is more 9-9.75"

[@radoldrat]

I have to agree a bit, with all the shapes I've written this was the toughest one. It was a little tighter than what I'm used to and the pointy nose threw me off because i really like a square nose. I found it a bit narrow and hard to keep stable even as wide as it is

Thank y❤ou

Thank YOU! 🙏🛹🐀

Such tiny risers. Get some 3/8” OJ Juice Cubes.

[@oemilianov]

I'm thinking of buying this board. I have some 159 indy trucks and some 60mm slime balls wheels. Will those wheels fit? I would appreciate an answer. Very good video

[@radoldrat]

Yes actually 159 Indys and 60mm Slimeballs is exactly how I have it set up now! Feels great I think you'll like it! 🐀🛹

[@Justlikegravybaby]

I love this deck, I got one for my birthday. Did you like the missile 2 concave?

[@radoldrat]

Yeah it's super comfortable!! 🛹🐀

[@pauliewalnuts5241]

What do you think about the new Santa Cruz Pokémon boards? Will you get one?

[@radoldrat]

They look pretty rad but I was never into pokémon and I don't ride popsicle shape so I can't imagine picking one up for any reason. Might see if the shop will loan me one so I can do a review or something but I doubt I would skate one

[@pauliewalnuts5241]

@@radoldrat I have the same feeling lol that's why I asked

[@jeffreylawton328]

Fucking Firehose 🤟🏻🖤

[@radoldrat]

Oh man I had to!! 🤘💪😤

[@jeffreylawton328]

@radoldrat you most certainly had to, bro. Plesee don't ever stop the good work. You might also look up Flyke Fanzine. My buddy Matthew has been doing it since 1991. He's good friends with Mike Watt so MW shows up in many issues, including the latest that recently came out.

[@Dreamingofloversrock]

Bones wheels!?!? Never mix Santa Cruz and Powell!!!!

[@radoldrat]

Couldn't get my hands on any OJ'S at the time 😫😫

[@randomnotesmusic5933]

can you give the washington senators youtbe chanel a shout out

[@Mr.Burton17]

I don’t think that board was put together right give it to me I promise not to give it back 😃😃😁😁

[@radoldrat]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 man if I didn't already sell it I'd probably send it to you just for that!

[@Mr.Burton17]

I remember I had the big cat deck and the mini.

[@Mr.Burton17]

I miss them days my friend it’s crazy because Mike vallely was like 3 towns over and we couldn’t skate with him. But my top boards natas/shut/tommy g/blockhead. Badakolie- Joaquim cardonna use to skate on these decks to back in the day

[@radoldrat]

@@Mr.Burton17 man there's nothing like skate history! I swear we come from the best era haha

[@julienbaut5784]

Natas Kaupas, Mark Gonzales, and Mike Vallely are the most influential street skaters of this era ! Period …. 😁🛹 By the way, nice video (again !) ! 👍

[@radoldrat]

Thank you!! Pretty sure I'm doing GONZ next!! 🛹🐀

[@whokid187]

How do you feel about Jason Lee? The whole Blind Video Days crew was pretty amazing at the time.

[@radoldrat]

@whokid187 that's a great question, I've debated on doing a Jason Lee video or I thought about doing a Video Days review and focus on Jason Lee. Apparently the first 360 flip goes to him? I love his style and his decks were so rad!!

[@julienbaut5784]

Incomparable !!! 😧

[@julienbaut5784]

Go ahead !!! "The Gonz" all day !!! 🔝🔥

[@gregorystiller975]

What is the pad on the nose?

[@radoldrat]

It's RipGrip. A soft sticker pad to grip when doing a grab trick. Total gimmick haha 🛹🐀

Exactly haha
