Powell Peralta Skateboard Stories: George Powell

[@Fo-Flats]

One of the most important people in the history of skating. Period.

[@Randquez]

George and Stacy, thank you so much for helping kids like me around the world become more meaningful and wholesome during a time when we were trying to find ourselves growing up in the 80's. . .

[@juliangrundy1795]

A classic American company that has made millions of kids happy including myself. This company goes way under the radar and should get more respect. American made legendary products made by Americans. Great story.

Nice to finally meet the legendary George Powell as real person behind the legendary brand

[@ThePubliusValerius]

George is so cool. I just love his spirit and his vision. I would love to meet him one day.

[@antonios990]

Best brand and living legend!

George, Stacy and Colt 🙌

As a long time Fan of Powell since the Mid 80's, I am so Glad they appreciate the Old guys like myself and reissue the decks from my era. I only have a Small Collection, but my Powells are my faces. Loved the Bones Brigade stuff too, I like many in the Cinema had a tear in my eye watching it here in Cardiff, Wales.

[@dylanharrington744]

*faves, not Faces lol.

[@icantollie]

Hey Mr. Powell my first skateboard was a Powell it was a blank deck no color no graphic just natural wood and the words "Powell Skateboards" and I LOVED it

[@mrsir5783]

how do we get George and Stacey on the nine club? i could listen to you two talk for days.

[@pariahsb]

Yes please!

[@pajamas7]

Awesome videos! Thank you!

[@crescentskating]

Much respect ❤️

[@stylez893]

Thank you George Powell. 🙏🏼

[@apmikalogran]

This company open a new world for me hard to get them in Greece back then I am 42 and check this brand again

[@djsonfire0001]

Great video thanks for sharing! Glad you guys came out with a longboard now I can stop buying Santa Cruz ones and covering them up with Powell Peralta stickers😂😅 my first Powell Peralta board was a Mike McGill with G bones Wheels and indy trucks! In my opinion you guys have always had the best designs

[@powellperalta]

We appreciate you watching, Danny. Thank you for the support and kind words!

[@stylez893]

Thank you George!!

[@ryanwilsonbackup]

So dope!

[@gc4644]

Miss the old lime-green Bones Cubics wheels from the early 80s, still some of the best Park wheels ever made!

[@marciaquiusky7002]

Respect to da man!🗣🕴

[@75YBA]

You’re a hero.

[@jamesmbs1]

I can't believe how much things have changed since then.

[@nikwestphoto]

Love it.

[@richsoryu]

Love that Angel Boy graphic in the background at the end. Seeing all of those screen prints makes me want another Diamond Dragon deck with the blue background from the mid 90s! The one with the diamond in the middle, not the one that took up the entire bottom. I'll take 8.25x32 K12 please ;)

[@BobGuido]

Christopher Hiett Pro Model will be Geroge & Powell Design Team's biggest innovation yet, creating a skateboard deck that combines four generations of skateboard technology, styles and skateboarding requirements.

[@monocogenit1]

I like to support made in America products. So much manufacturing has gone overseas these days. kinda sad really. When I was a kid, I think most, if not all, skateboarding stuff was made in a USA, even BMX stuff was mostly an American affair. Thank you for keeping it "Made in USA". Going to purchase a flight deck here soon.

[@Chronolith187]

FOREVER RESPECT 🛹👊 ..

[@rogeliocamachoosuna2666]

THE BEST.

[@Gouki4130]

Dream job.

[@rfs1974]

Great Job! Do you guys make the Bones bearings in the same building?

[@am_bails8293]

please make more size 9 flight decks !!

[@HORCH_]

I grew up riding Powell decks

[@geetarmanpete]

Long live King George

[@brodeyleembruggen9910]

I wish they made the freestyle deck with two noses the same angle as a popsicle with the concave

[@bargerkenneth]

But can he do a handstand?

[@AdventuresInSkateboarding]

I need a Powell Since 1976 shirt. (I was born in 1976 so it would be rad)

[@thebibleisright100]

I used to work there making wheels. I got so good at it but I left for skateboarding lol I just ended up buying my decks there. Mini logo

[@chris73brown]

So fucking cool. Thx for everything

[@djsonfire0001]

👍👍It would be awesome if you made a way that people could choose old school graphics and put them on longboards!!!!!!😀😀😀

[@swamp_rat_fla1126]

PP is still the OG IMO.

[@MultitaskingGuy]

When are the flight deck’s going to have non bland graphics on them?

[@elmercyperro]

how does powell possibly compete with the companies that import their stuff from china? would love to hear them answer that question.

[@m.a.6603]

Then why does your website say most of your popsicle desks are pressed in China?

[@vampyricangel5740]

I like to work for Powell

[@nopeISdope96]

He kinda sounds like an older Chris Roberts. Weellllll, we are back, huh?

[@shimes424]

The only skateboard company (that I'm aware of) that provides health insurance to their professional skateboarders M4A or bust ✌️

[@marcp3788]

Made in America? But my Vallely Elephant 8.25 says "Made in China" on the side of the deck?

[@johnzig1386]

That was just a big Powell ad.😡

[@bradystrohmeyer3363]

John Brinkman yeah no shit

[@anti-socialgoat6047]

There were no skate stories, I was just duped into watching a F'ing advertisement.

[@AnttiBrax]

Dude... Everything on this channel is an ad. Did you think skateboarders get sponsored just for charity?

[@djskizmarkey]

this is just a glorified advertisement
