On the Crail Couch with Andrew Reynolds & Mike Carroll

Heavy, heavy Couch. Carroll and Andrew talk starting their own companies as mere children, still skating as vets, meeting for the first time, resting bitch face, and Stay Flared, of course.

[@DudeWhoSkates69]

Boss man speaking the truth on the music apart! Fuck that bull shit!

[@mrc0mment0r]

Shots fired.

[@djmon1987]

I don't think Carroll was feeling it. He loves to party.

[@anhiirr]

Shakib Rahman hes pretty much calling a generation out for being pussys that are afraid not to form their own opinions and find their own tastes...Which encourages things like trap music to get popularized. Because it becomes a dichotomy of will, that is based on the fact that if you arent down you are a loser. So dumb kids that need to develop mentally fall into a trap of following whats "popular" for fear of being a "loser" if they dont like what everyone likes never questioning why they like it.

[@mcdropshotzz4455]

What's the song called?

[@nocturnalsonder]

MCDropshotZz Molly by The Migos or something, it's a shit song, I don't like hearing it, but that's the one they're talking about.

[@tntjz9546]

Love how he gave the message about not doing drugs etc. That's a real role model right there. #baker4life

[@TheSLICEonU]

Smiled when he said Andrew was back on fourstar lol skateboarding is so chill, I feel bad for the kids that missed out on this culture

[@moballardful]

Bro I feel bad for the kids that missed out on that early 00s era in general. I miss the demos in particular.

[@briancannon3987]

What company paid drew n then a thousand a month for doing nothing?

[@JayyDeezy]

@@briancannon3987 i wanna say it was ambiguous clothing ? i remember cutting an ad out of a thrasher mag they had of andrew doing like a back 50 on something, saw pants from them at zumiez that same year, but never saw them again. that was def 2008-2009 after his time with kr3w

[@billclinton3010]

I missed out on it. But man KZbin has done wonders the past 11 months. Watched probably 100 hours of skate content

[@SkoldierNathan]

Andrew is like a little kid just so hyped on skating. That's awesome

[@kunntakinte8625]

This is one of the best crail couches I have ever seen.

[@jsera]

It's cute seeing The Boss trip on his childhood heroes. He's still a kid at heart haha

[@detailsmove]

This is awesome. 2 legends right there!

[@304bobgnarly]

They're not even old to me. They've just grown up. Awesome to see.

[@Deeaygopatrick]

Best crail couch in a while ! I love these

[@djohnsonskateboarding9807]

so cool to see legends like andrew's past experiences and realize they can have those same feeling towards pros as you do now. and also it should always be done for the love of skating

[@FRIEDWINGZ17]

DJohnsonSkateboarding ay dan!!

[@TJl919]

"Andrew you're back on" - Rick. Hahah I was dying

[@samkupper]

I love Reynolds Hawk tattoo

[@rutlandcitybikes9729]

Ha! This is 7yrs ago! Andrew and Mike are still kill'n!! I'm 49 and skate on average 5 days a week!! Blows my mind that we are still doing what we love!! Thankful everyday!!

[@Megadeadpeople]

This was really sweet to rewatch for like, the 5th time. You two are really appreciated.

[@KenHigaG]

This one here is my all time Crail Couch favorite. So much respect in the air, so many life lessons from these legends. ...Now kiss!!

[@13FloorsDown]

My favorite Crail Couch interview thus far.

[@BrushyZeus]

Haha one of the best ones yet! And Reynolds end statement is the truth!

[@swagfordaaays]

Easily one of my favorite videos of all time; two OGs talking about skating, you can really see the camaraderie in skating in the way Reynolds and Carroll and Howard talk so chill with each other. And The Boss couldn't be more on point with his realtalk at the end, a lot of the rap on the radio is just trash. Awesome video

[@PONYBOYonline]

Andrew has a good point about weed. And this goes for any drugs, alcohol, partying. Feel free to live a fast, hard, and crazy life when you are young, but just know that it's going to smack you back in the face. That shit will burn you out REALLY quick. Honestly, if you have any ambition to live an above average life, take it easy with the drugs and alcohol until you've made it to where you want to be. I'm not saying you will be a bum, but you will more than likely end up an average Joe who only looks to the end of their work day so they can crash on the couch and drink or smoke.

[@rodjato]

+PONYBOYonline Yeah I completely agree. Smoking weed can kill your ambition..

[@saari985]

+PONYBOYonline i respect reynolds for that statement but its very ironic because his brand and his team are known for beignet smoking drinkers playing disrespectful rap/hip hop music. Like he owns the company where most of his riders endorse the thing he doesn't want kids to emulate

[@austinhoffman219]

+PONYBOYonline Totally agree.

[@timcasey6279]

+PONYBOYonline That is true, but however I don't think soft drug use slows down a dedicated skateboarder, musician, ect. Weed doesn't make or break people but for sure Ive seen it turn people into total losers.

[@gregdawe2786]

+saari985 Ya but he is always vocal against it, hes just not their dad. His brand is not about pussy weed money and shit like that, thats shake junt, or at least it was, seems like they chilled out a bit too. Baker is about bros, passion, and family, a bunch of them just happen to smoke weed and party a lot but if you watch Epicly later'd (which i would recommend) you'll see the negative affects are pretty rampant, these guys like spanky and herm and even andrew, are having fun now by being adults. If you think baker is selling and image about weed, ur missing the ppoint. Kids are impressionable i get it, but that comes down to parenting imo. My parents taught me what i needed to know. I didn't get my moral compass from a skateboard brand.

[@thuglyfe420blazeithomie5]

I'm kinda high, and was trying to write a fan letter to James Marsters. But I coudn't figure out how, so I went on KZbin to distract me from my failure. I clicked on this video, because Mike and Andrew are two of my favorite skaters. I haven't watched the whole video through, but I know I've watched it before. I think I'm going to sleep easy now, thinking about their collective conritbutions to skateboarding. They both have amazing frontside flips. Good night.

[@Wincouver]

Man. Idols right here. I don't actually skate anymore (I know, I know), but I still look up to these guys.

[@rodjato]

I love his advice for the youth... right on...

[@jacemarteez]

holy crap this might be the first time ive ever heard reynolds laugh

[@skateboy102]

Shout out to Reynolds for that statement

[@OVSkatemedia]

keep making these vids long plz haha

[@jonedsweeps6379]

Love both of these guys

[@erikhuerta2402]

The ending with Rick was awesome.

[@HarjoteGill]

sick! it's so cool to see these 2 chillin together

[@eldrs-]

BRING BACK THE CRAIL COUCH!

[@aaronwebber523]

The smile on Carroll's face when Andrew is geeking out about the demo as a kid is what skateboarding is all about!

[@Ratt611]

" I don't have that much ice at home. " lol too funny.

[@nickcoverdale]

Reynolds has so much of my respect, such a cool dude

[@garyponce737]

My two favorite skaters of all time

[@fresh-er8427]

Andrew was super rite!! Definitely a good advices from the matured guy.love that..u r like a big bro to us.thnkz andrew

[@jfncho]

that Tony Hawk tattoo is so sick

[@ElementFlip101]

Best Crail Counch yet! Reynolds, #FLORIDA

[@AndrewRyanGonzalez]

Seriously my two favorite skaters ❤️💙

[@snowjerkface]

chill vibes for days! so good.

[@jasonlampa]

I'll be honest, Reynolds is completely not what I imagined him to be like at all. That's great.

[@allymoreno4430]

Yessss yesssss finally both of my favorites on the couch!

[@geoffferreros6401]

[@SkoldierNathan]

Already bald crew!

[@thomasflores959]

Nathan Manies ABC

[@SkoldierNathan]

***** That's what "ABC" stands for!

[@PaperOverPusy]

A Bald Cap = ABC

[@vperkv6554]

H3 said yea, he is on his way, nah, not for a min, mike has the normal male pattern baldness.

[@Stefan.X.]

Technically it's Aoeteroa Board Company if you are from 🇳🇿 New Zealand.

[@SONOFABITCH]

Best one yet!

[@bloodfeast123]

Reynolds is the best!

[@TheNamesJohnnyYuma]

This younger generation is fucked. They feed you this dead-brain media and you kids LOVE it. Money. Arrogance. Disrespect. Swag? You kids will bottom out if you don't shape up. Be watchful. Be slick. Be friendly. Lay off the substances. Listen to your elders. Listen to some Miles Davis while pushing around your hood. Eat good. Sleep good. Speak intelligently. Use that brain and skate like its your last day on Earth. That's the good life, kids.

[@anhiirr]

TheNamesJohnnyYuma its been this way for a while....whats sadder is what adults are being fed. humans are shit at the core so assholes like to capitalize on it. You see some celeb on the spot for being "human" it makes sack of shit normal people rationalize that its ok to be themselves if miley is a shit show....only difference between them is a couple million dollars...the gap will never be closed. All the idiots need is a "feeling" that they are better than people like miley...amanda bynes etc... or a better man than any athlete that cheats on their wife or commits domestic violence...if thats where our standards are then no wonder people fall into a capitalist trap. Its called indoctrination this Nature vs Nurture shit is bs....indoctrination has proven that the nurture factors can be provided by influencing the society as a whole. The "American" mentality has been indoctrinated into youths and bred into their dna as the media and politics serve as a tit they can suckle on to gain self worth and mental security. In order to rationalize that its ok to not be a millionaire living the 1% life. This indoctrination was also a solution in the biblical era. Nothing has changed. Only the perception of the self. Now sacks of shit think its ok to be themselves nothing more. At least in the past people knew where they stood.

[@MrNickrandi]

TheNamesJohnnyYuma word

[@noahschenck6715]

I'm, unfortunately, a kid from this generation. As a die-hard skater, I couldn't agree with you more.

[@primetime2SD]

Thank you for posting.

[@101chillen]

love these guys

[@ryanhingorani4019]

i love how they end up just asking eachother questions

[@lalr1]

best interview ever

[@CollinGill7]

when andrew said "i dont have that much ice at home" lmao

[@armin38822]

Interesting how Andrew talks ''down '' on kids who just want to skate and smoked weed. But that's exactly what he did. He even said it himself. He saw Penny and Muska be famous in California,skate all day,smoke and party at night. He got inspired by that. In his The End era he even looks like Penny. The trick selection,the clothes etc. Everything was like Penny. Off the board he also did just like Penny. Smoked weed all the time and partied like crazy. I would think he would understand the kids a bit more...

[@solidsalami2327]

Personally My two favourites of all time

[@sisterskateboarders_9358]

andrew reynolds i love your life!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Moucheron1990]

I can't wait for Stay Flared to come to Pittsburgh. It's gonna be so sick.

[@BobbySKeight]

Best crail couch yet

[@thatherton]

andrew seems awesome. didnt know he was so chill. mike seems nicer than usual in this, probably cause hes with andrew

[@dustinsilvers6627]

i met him at a demo in atlanta once like about a year after they had just launched Deathwish as an official company, him and Terry Kennedy were the coolest guys in the entire group. Both of them were actually smiling while taking pics in the middle of skating on top of the ramps with random kids. Andrew was my favorite skater before that day, and after seeing how he handled his fans during the peak of his career he became my role model

[@euminkong]

@@dustinsilvers6627 same story for Baltimore. Terry was so chill it was weird seeing him play a character in his skateparts. They know they are making people really happy and it is a moment they will treasure forever.

[@soleofmischief7938]

Reynolds is such a father figure. If I was on one of his teams I would try to hide all my vices in fear of letting him down. Maybe because I grew up watching him for some time, but I would much rather sit and have a sober breakfast with him than party it up with the crew.

[@kus88]

Sick talking about Jake Hayes here, he just went pro for Deathwish!

[@deguzmanChris1]

Carrol's cap, longevity, & Rick Howard. yes yes yes

[@violentsheeple5045]

Andrew truely an inspiration good job telling kids to stop listening to that garbage and to not abuse drugs.

[@skateli128]

Boss man droppin knowledge

[@bentolleson8582]

Skateboarding is better for these two dudes being a part of it. They have both helped a bunch of kids to get into it

[@TheRoosterESP]

Boss man and mike man !!

[@peperruti]

This is awesome!

[@rolliecarso]

Mike doesn't remember the demo Andrew is talking about where mike did the pressure flip, at all. 😆

[@HungryFisheyeVids]

damn! that was a sick couch sesh

[@TenderloinsToughest]

Props to Andrew for calling out Migos and that trap bullshit. Shit's so dumb. Listen to some real hip-hop.

[@shadow.banned]

Paul Lukes I guess we're supposed to hate Trap now cause it's the new Dubstep? Bitch, some of that shit sounds dope.

[@TenderloinsToughest]

s c h i z ø p h r e n i c No, you're supposed to hate it because it's pure garbage. The beats may be dope, but the rhymes are pure basura. Get over yourself and your shitty taste in music...bitch.

[@shadow.banned]

Paul Lukes Your favorite color is wrong. See how crazy that sounds?

[@TenderloinsToughest]

s c h i z ø p h r e n i c Except there's a clear method for identifying quality music, including hip-hop/rap from shitty music. Colors are all the same (aside from the color itself being different), music is not. It's not as simple as you're making it. Trap music has dope beats, I can admit that, but the lyrics and rapping are pure garbage. Those producers should take their beats to some better lyricists and make classic, timeless music, instead of the temporary flash in the pan it will be.

[@KissaKolme]

So good!!!

[@danieltafoya7767]

LOL Andrew sounds like such an old man. It's funny to see him give advice to all the young kids skating. But he does have a good point.

[@Kolenkus]

This is the best!

[@blah1075]

JAKE HAYES

[@hacksdp3]

Drew you're back on.

[@MegaAppl3]

That was so KOOL !

[@powerswish]

"...sponosored?" I did a double take when I saw that spelled on the screen.

[@allenstokes6328]

Andrew's right on many levels. Todays music sucks so much and is one of the reasons that crap is falling apart today. This is why he's the freaking BOSS

[@WelshGrey]

These guys are fucking great, so cool

[@MasterGuero]

"I don't have that much ice at home" lmao with a dead serious look but seriously...what do you do to get that much ice?

[@BenNarNar44]

wow andrew seems waaaaaaaaaayyyyy sicker than I ever thought!

[@ggermm]

God bless crailtap 4 this

[@polobubblevest]

when did you first meet? where u scared of mike? do you remember the first time you saw mike? did you talk to mike that day?

[@BigErnMcCracken777]

Reynolds is prolly the coolest dad ever, he is right bout trap music....it’s jus those beats sometimes get you hyped lol

[@DB.KOOPER]

I've never understood why people thought guys like Carrol and McCrank were intimidating... they're good as fuck and confident but I've met them both numerous times up here in OR and they're both chill dudes.

[@TheBrrp]

I met alex olson at stoner park dude was super chill talked to me about weed for like an hour but he doesn't smoke haha just wanted to be nice to me was a pretty awesome experience

[@IanMercier]

The Boss speaking the truth at the end

[@Uglier.]

Do more!

[@Jumpman_5000]

How awesome would it be if Andrew went to Fourstar

[@clivemathieu9386]

The boss is so class

[@giandileva5828]

Crail Couch with Rick!

[@OscarOffTheCuff]

Legendary status

[@tazmon122]

Carroll and Reynolds are like the whole crew at O'Brien's in Boston. little tiny punk dive that's been around forever! we're all wicked awkward people, and we have a hard time being outward and exaggerated and talkative and shit...and we're all covered in tattoos and listen to metal/hardcore shit. i call it the OB's fuck you....which is more or less just resting bitch vibe. but we all teddy bears on the inside. fuck in these COVID times where i don't get to work in rock clubs, and youtube recommending me clips from 5yrs ago, i miss the shit so much.

[@Lurkai]

andrews back on!!! aye!

[@seanraad]

Reynolds is the truth!

[@PonchoCruz]

just sweet
