“Can I be 50 filming 20 year olds? I don’t know gets a littleee weeiirrrdd” The start of the strobeck beef

[@TheJulesfoote]

Well said.

[@ricosteel]

alex greenberg john wilson and loads of other filmers film those new kids but i get what you mean lol strobeck should film josh kalis jake anderson again imo

[@ricosteel]

not saying strobeck doesn’t film his riders lol***

[@infinidominion]

Beef Stroganoff

“50 filming dudes in dresses”

[@Saiyamanmc]

"said i was disrespecting the hammer" im fucking dying over here lmao the way grant tells stories is hilarious

[@ricosteel]

jim greco is a kook lol

[@suar3zj]

"HK's gonna be there, could be good for your career idk" had me dying

[@terryferkey2179]

Grant is one of the best dudes in the industry.

[@sean78745]

Holy shit seeing Austyn's back 180 spot up close is insane. Its massive

[@OneHundredPercent-100]

Impressive innit? No fear.

[@tomgann9383]

Dude is so underrated

[@zackmccurdy8144]

Holy shit. You’re not wrong! I was waiting for that part. Insane.

[@andyjohnson4008]

"Here you go my little skaters" made me laugh way more than it should have haha

[@A8A24]

The most entertaining company. The vibes, the synergy, the creativity. Grant and the WKND crew are forever goated.

[@caseyaylward8853]

Grant is being very humble cuz the dude is doing big shit. You know your company is rad when you can make a couple phone calls and legends will show up just to do a cameo in your skit. If your shit is even remotely wack homies aint showing up.

[@matthewjames206]

Best "skitboarding" company out there. I'm a big fan of all the WKND videos. I look forward to seeing more 🍻

[@liamgallagherrr]

14:41 Boosh as Jake Duncombe just made my day

[@BetterSkateThanNever]

skit legend & straight up comedian, so many good laughs :D so hyped for 10 more yrs & i hope he's still involved at 60, on the spike jonze skit director tip

[@THEBIGLEBOTSKI74]

Best one yet?! Dude is hilarious, the beefs are too much 😂

[@jasonsimotes4157]

Grant, I grew up watching Jackass just the same. Got into skateboarding and found Weekendtage. I have a copy of Cosmic Vomit. Wore RipNDip clothing to support til RND got big into Zumiez and heard some things about the owner. Y’all we’re an inspiration to me. I shared so many laughs and felt like y’all were my homies. Glad you started your own thing and I hope it bring you many years of success. You Rob and Johan were the life of Weekendtage. I’m about to go back and watch your old stuff. Thanks for many years of laughs. Hope for more to come.

[@blookazoo192]

“One day we’ll have a skatepark, just like prod” haha love that

[@blookazoo192]

The importance of friendship is captured really well love to see it very inspiring

[@GizmoGary]

WKND represents my favorite aspects of skateboarding. Grant's keeping the culture alive and constantly adding to it, we all need to thank this man for his contributions!

[@290wm8]

Clown. You meant to say clown!

[@quincypinetree]

[@ianfacerollsyou]

[@TheCollinsherlock]

Cosmic Vomit was one of my favorite videos back in middle school, and loved all the Weekendtage stuff! Pumped to see Grant still killing it!

[@williamdavis9313]

I still got the dvd bro!

[@dinosaurthat]

Yo the that Brad call was fucking hilarious !!!! 😆🤣

[@NathFilms]

Best thing in skateboarding is people that have fun and like to talk some shit without taking it serious

[@Turtleboykid]

it's crazy film buffs like tom k and jordan made it on to wknd. Match made in heaven for those guys to get to work with someone as creative as grant.

[@iamkool12342]

10:27 "he said i was disrespecting the hammer" lmaooo

[@princexaba5732]

[@tomcampbell8934]

Jesus Christ that back 180 was fucking mind blowing

[@al_chargedup]

[@JeffFadness]

Thanks for keeping skateboarding entertaining. Weekendtage is still the funniest shit ever made.

[@ryanking4163]

Me and my friends were obsessed with weekendtage, Grant’s a legend!!

[@Riv_Flow]

Every time I see the title “out there” think of Project Pat’s “out there” song 😂

[@NZMPlays]

I would love to know what happened to johan

[@daynethemayne1851]

We will never know.. same w/ Al Davis + Quasi, Yonnie Cruz + Chocolate, Tyler Warren + Alltimers, and so on.

[@alexbutlerful]

He kinda fell off the face of the earth after being accused of spreading herpes to sexual partners a few years ago. Whether or not it was true, I don't really know, but I definitely miss his skating and wish he would resurface. Grant dropped him from WKND because it wasn't a good look.

[@cinemasnitch3959]

the craziest thing about that end skit is i hadnt seen or heard about jake duncombe since what if came out lol tell grant to find tosh towend next

[@bigglebowski7505]

he is a genious

[@blindcurb863]

Really cool dude

[@IK40000]

awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@andrewashford5617]

So fire! I remember going to old navy before they made the krew skinny’s and all they had was bootleg flares so we had to sew em from the kneecap to the ankle to make skinny’s and put the whole world on to skinny’s! Even tho they were in rock culture forever, in 04 it was tall tees and the baggiest jeans u could find. U couldn’t find skinny’s anywhere. We put lil b and the new boys on them vans and skinny’s and changed the world! But them greccos and Reynolds were the hardest pants in the game

[@skylerbernal]

The best!

[@cheddarcheeseboy2027]

Thrasher keep putting me on game like this and I’ll stop talking shit about SOTY

[@nomorepain2267]

WKND brings a fun, silly side to skating kinda how enjoi used to. Very different but much needed

[@LavelWashington]

This guy is comedy. So good 😆

[@lordfrieza3982]
