Rare 60s-80s Skateboard Collection | SkateHoarders: Steve Caballero Season 1 Ep 2

[@djrichvicious]

What a humble dude. One of my favorite skaters of all time.

[@blabber1975]

Rich I couldn’t agree more, he has a real positive soul, I saw him skate in Stevenage,uk . Legend !

[@s.a.l.1974]

He was in my favorite band

[@Guez_art]

New Keys yes because 1) he is a well known skate legend and 2) he actually painted it, he put in the time and effort. Also, he is not selling a print or a printout for $900.

[@Mr.Burton17]

Cabo to still one the smoothest styles ever

[@SammeLagom]

I agree, he seem so kind and nice!

[@jjsmither5256]

All those Bones Brigade guys are spectacular individuals. And Steve's a real gem. What a neat guy.

[@LifeofLeviG]

This dude came to a skate event in my hometown when I was about 14. I was walking up to the skateshop and he picked me up on his golf cart and gave me a ride. Super friendly nice guy

[@robertrobb7776]

Hey Cab, I can't count the scars, scabs and calluses on my body trying to copy your style. 61yo and still rippin. Thanks for the road map.

[@AudibleVisibIe]

Sickkkk 🤙🤙

[@andrewkeegans1]

Robert Robb nice one brother. Keep on keepin on.

[@ParappatheRapper]

I salute you soldier. Just started at 28 and im 29 now. Sometimes I feel old to start so late but comments like yours keep me going strong.

[@homefront3162]

my too

[@chrisrichards430]

I trip on the boards of Canada shoes catching fire and stuff. Wear his shoes getting ready for gravity to take effect.

[@Bowwylad]

nicest guy in skateboarding. That was amazing|!

[@blueandgreenslacks]

I met him at a demo in 1985 he was so cool he even posed for a picture with me.

[@Steezo_Romero]

Cab is so sick. His collections are incredible. And that coffee table from Lance Mountain is something else!

I saw Steve on Nickelodeon, SK8 TV. I was in the sixth grade. I look back to Steve Caballero, and he looks back to the sixties. That’s SO COOL that they gave him the 720 cabinet! He cannot know just how far reaching his inspiration has been for skaters everywhere. THANKS FOR SHARING!

[@Svenmpa]

Stevie. Love his humble persona. So glad I got to meet him once when he visited Stockholm the other year.

[@TransWorldSKATEboarding]

Rad!

[@JesTgOtMaDe]

Keep these episodes coming

[@TransWorldSKATEboarding]

Will do! working on it!

[@conceptheroes7879]

Cab is such a cool guy. Really humble and chilled. Always my favourite pro skater and I loved riding his decks. Feel like I want to get back into skating again... :)

[@troyjenkins3886]

Me too man,my little Bro just got back into it.🤙

[@Shoksable]

I think most guys of our generation (baby boomers), are "cool, nice guys". No airs and graces, just getting on with whatever needs to be done. I started skating in the late 70ties, and just bought a board again. Due to watching some of these vids, I've decided to get back on a board at the age of 53;>).

[@carriewatkins313]

Yeah but make sure your mommy lets you.

[@GuitarLessonsBobbyCrispy]

Remember those 1970's Penny molded plastic skateboards with the swirling colours? That's the kind I had when I was a kid.

[@realmcoy4696]

I own one and compared to today skateboards its pretty hard to ride and i cant tell bout tricks, that cause make the people in 70s doin such badass tricks just real phenomens

[@j-mac7401]

Awesome collection!!! So many great skaters in the "Golden Era" of skateboarding but Cab was by far the skater I tried to emulate. I even sported the 80s punk flat top with the halfway bleach!!! Cab is still killing it at his age and is so respected in the skate community!!!! The Powell Peralta Cab deck with the dragon and bats graffix is possibly the most iconic skateboard ever made(as far as art graffix)!! His man cave is sick but it was taken up so many more levels by havin the 720 arcade game !!!!

[@MrKydaman]

I met and got an autograph from him back in the day. He was super friendly. A class act and a legendary skater!

[@sarahfoster3288]

yes i met him once. super nice.

[@canyonsuede]

This guy really does a great job of walking us through his mindset while showcasing his collection

[@ahbalone]

Great to see Steve. It's been 40 yrs since the punk rock days with Thrasher mag in San Jose.

[@paulgeorge1069]

Bringing back old times. Those were the best days. Competing with cab was AWESOME back in the day.

[@831WatsonvilleCaLi]

Steve Caballero Is A Skateboarding Legend. I Remember Watching Videos Of Him Skateboarding When I Use To Skate Lol. Time Sure Goes By Fast Now I'm 28.

[@HGVMe]

Growing up in mid seventies UK, Cab was the first "pro" I could name from a picture. I've followed him ever since. You da man Cab.

[@TGoKovenant]

Absolute Legend. Always been a big fan, especially of "street Cab".

[@stephenfernald2490]

What a great video! Steve and his collection are just so cool! In 1963 or 4my Dad got me my first manufactured board. I believe it was from Japan. I loved it. Still wish I had it.

[@stephanieredden8861]

Wow! So many items in the background spark so many good times and memories. What a happy place.

[@paulosacra1700]

Interesting as im a retired (amateur) skateboarders and also got into a small collection of memorablia - when you have an awesome life- you can re-live it again in memories when you get old is a saying i came across. I hadn't thought about seeking inspiration from these pros who inspired me when i was younger- for my retirement from skateboarding but eventually did. Thanks Steve and was a great feel to watch you here- and its awesome to - like some wise man said- surrender ones yought gracefully. I spent the afternoon SUPing yesterday and woke up with sore muscles- yoga does help- but its nice to align ourselves into a smooth transition- skateboarding can actually prepare us for change and adaptation- Steve made me realise today! Thanks mate!

[@huntinglife5202]

Steve was my favorite skater. Great collection.

[@davidharris4030]

You my friend are the best! I really don’t know what to say but I appreciate you sharing!

[@Corinthians-kjv]

That's a real wild collection . A legend showing us about legends.

[@P-Bass_Pete]

Man, Steve Cab, Lance Mountain, Tony Hawk, Bones Brigade! Great memories of my skateboarding days and all my skate park heroes.

[@xOGxSE7ENx]

I had the honor of meeting this Legend twice in my hometown!! A very down to earth soul!! Long Live Cab!!

[@beardedloon77]

Cabs bit on 'ban this' where he's on the miniramps with the spine is one of my favourite parts of any skate vid.

[@vmvlev]

video was way too short .. i could watch this easy 2-3hrs

[@TransWorldSKATEboarding]

We'll keep digging deeper!

[@joninsco1062]

Lick. Yours. Truly. Insco

[@smocloud]

This comment is on all of the skateHoarder episodes, always from different people, but this is the first time I've full on agreed with it. I was actually upset when it ended.

[@Nominay]

Definitely.

[@Sirmellowman]

i was just about to comment the same thing!

[@Occy30]

Absolute legend. His style was nice to watch over the years.

[@TroutWest]

This is my type of collection. Cab was a hero to us kids in the 80s.. our whole school had his skateboards. Deer Canyon elementary in Alta Loma CA.. .I still have my Upland Pipeline membership

[@mike22pls]

You were my favorite in THP2 ❤

[@freesoul3371]

I started skating in the 60's NJ Shore Seaside Park/Midway Beach, Surfing and Skating. I remember the steel wheel which I started on then clay wheels Chicago trucks and then polyurethane wheels Sims and Tracker trucks in the late 70's. Grogs Surf Shop in Seaside Park was the first surf/skate shop and I remember being in their look at the first clay wheels and got a board with them. They wore out fast. The those red sims I lusted after and eventually got and skated. Memories. Cool Collection.

[@davemc575]

Thank you Steve, for sharing your collection with us!

[@RNFORLAW]

This awesome to see as a child from the 70's. I can relate to the Evil Knievel bike and I remember having the Black Knight skateboard with clay wheels. Amazing times ~

[@lilakmonoke982]

the man who can uphold a lifelong passion for the arts is a happy man!

[@michaeljohn8905]

Oh man Steve you are one of my heroes growing up so glad to see you healthy and happy brother. Thank you for all the great years of skateboarding I’m 50 and I am just getting back into it after a 10 year hiatus because of knee problems but it is in our blood I guess. Thanks for this like an subbed.

[@mc540flip]

720!-“Skate or die!” That game was so hard

[@TransWorldSKATEboarding]

Very true! ha

[@SuaSponte75]

Hell yeah

[@OrangeJackson]

Yeah, it was too hard. A real quarter eater.

[@HemiMike]

Great collection! You're in my collection of best Childhood souvenirs! Love you Steve!

[@chrisrichards430]

You collect Chrysler cars now?

[@skater7d177]

My first board in 85 was similar. I had Tracker 6 trax with the Tracker copers, florescent green Powell Street Cubic wheels on a Sims Lester deck. Such good memories. And, Cab, I rode your shoes for 20 plus years. They're just so good for skating. Amazing collection. My friends and I used to play that 720 arcade game when it first came out at the Hayward 711. Good times.

[@ricardocuevas7815]

I swear I love Cab. What a story teller. He really makes me feel like I personally know him. GREAT work and awesome collection. Keep these vids coming.

[@chrisrichards430]

But he has a cold type of presence about the whole famous thing to me. Two different type of skaters to me these days.

[@5CYL_BTLSHIP]

Yes! Please do more of these video. Cab seems like such a down to earth awesome guy

[@speedyzolt]

I used to play 720 when I was 13 years old at 7-11. That was the best skating game ever. Good keep. Would love to have that. And yes Steve Cab is one of the most genuine classy guys.

[@slanderman3296]

Watching this brought back an old memory from 2001 when my family went on our biggest trip ever to Hawaii. I remember seeing a Duke memorial and this brought back that memory. Thanks steve, I had your shoes in 8th grade til 12th hahah kept buying them

[@giantsfan7733]

From San Jose, big Cab fan, grew up skating Campbell, first skate shoes ever were Half Cabs. All hail the legend!

[@jjhatnm]

That was awesome. So many memories. I was a huge fan of Steve. Loved watching his videos and looking at the awesome pictures in the skate magazines when then came out. That stuff inspired me to skate harder. That was all I wanted to do back in the day. I'm 45 now and I wouldn't dare step on a board.

[@chrisrichards430]

Sounds good. Prolly too fat aren't ya?

[@ransmomebloke1949]

That 720 story was awesome! Steve has and will always be a stand up dude.

[@nathanielnicholson559]

My brother still has his Hobie fiberglass (I believe) skateboard from the 70s. I used to pull it out of the garage and cruise our driveway on it. I can still see the orange sunset with flying bird silhouettes on it. Later on, once skating was tattooed into my fiber, I never paid much attention to the Bones guys except Mullen and Mountain, but in the past couple years I've come to realize how truly awesome Cab is.Seems like someone who could just chill or skate with anyone.

[@jcbvortex22]

I got a mint condition, never ridden 1987 Caballero board in a shadow box on my wall! I could just hang out all day with Steve. I grew up in Saratoga,Ca right next to San Jose! When I was in grade school one kid’s sister was supposedly dating Steve! When the Bones Brigade is in their late 70’s-80’s they should all live in a Skater’s retirement home! It’s got ramps and bowls and street areas, but it’s also got antigravity nets to catch the elderly skaters!

[@Skater4Christ]

Cab, I love the bronze full Cab shoe! Also the Apollo 1960's board.

[@darrendix5163]

Never give those to the Smithsonian. You rock, Cab!

[@jeremiahwilson1781]

Yeah. These are good. I always admired Cab for his loyalty to the Powell Peralta thing. All the other Brigade members went on to start board companys of thier own but ole Cab stuck withh PP. All these years. Pretty cool. And shows loyalty big time.

[@gloriahancock8358]

Cab always been one of my favorites skaters!!

[@christophersoprano-sculptor]

Such a kind and inspiring guy. Fortunate to have met him.

[@ptcrusa]

Thank you for this!! I've been trying to remember the name of that skateboard arcade game for 20 years! 720°! That game was rad!

[@stodiie]

OMG that replica is so amazing

[@stodiie]

What an episode. the tws cover with the damn skate & create logo makes my head spin, so much history to be told..

[@michaeljames2564]

Never met Cab in person, but dude seems like one of coolest dudes ever. Would love to talk with him some time. One thing to be an amazing skateboarder, but it's another thing to be as cool and genuine as he seems while being one of the greatest ever.

[@mertone77]

Steve Caballero... What an awesome guy! 🙌😃

[@thebrowns5337]

I have a 70's Ampul Amflex - fibreglass deck is this and the ride with the flex that the deck gives is outstanding, even now, with the original trucks. Such a light board too.

[@602Reasons]

Been wearing his shoes for 25 years. Thank you, Transworld. Thank you, Steve.

[@MrStuntmanmike417]

The amount of knowledge this man has is amazing and it would be great to hang out and talk to him

[@RocketPunchArmy]

Further cements why he's my favorite skater. Cool guy

[@tomtownsend5009]

What a rad guy

[@alexandersillan8139]

This should of been on the history channel, no joke, this was informative as hell. I didn’t even know some of this stuff existed

[@BLACK05GO1]

I rode a Nash Goofy foot steel wheeled board when they first came out. Went through every new invention. Loved my Ray bones Rodriquez Snub Nose back in the 80s.

[@bearsmith3655]

Love this video, reminds me of skating and the greatest memories of my youth. Bones Brigade Forever!

[@Ben-b9h1f]

Steve is the best person to listen to, he’s like if jazz skated

[@chrhadden]

i could beat 720 on a quarter by the time its reign was over. i probably invested 500 or so in it. your so lucky man. i bought 3 of your boards during the 80s. you were one of my favorite pros

[@jeffl7852]

Go Steve! Out of respect I want to ad... I rocked an El Gato in 76, Got one of yours in 77. Was wearing Vans since 70 mostly low tops but got FULL Cab's when they 1st came out. Wore them out in the USAF (skatin) but move onto many pairs of HALF cabs ever since. I have 5 pair of Half's now. Got a reissue 20th FULL pair 6 months ago. Just to keep on my wall with other mementos. You are da man! Jeff Rosemead 78

[@snaphookright4767]

The idea of Cab on eBay scrounging for collectibles only makes me admire him more. The dude is core to the bone.

[@barneymiller7894]

The connection between the Frankenstein board and custom car culture is the Rat Fink style.

[@petergarcia8225]

Koooooool !😮😮😮😎 Thanks for sharing..we' re not worthy...all time Greats.

[@mikedlc9766]

real cool the way Steve didn't erase the names under the boards also I used to spend some serious quarters on the arcade 720 loved it also when they ported to the NES as 540

[@Ben-b9h1f]

I wish there was a show about this dude, like now. He sounds like a stoked grommet still, I feel like he’s a great guy to emulate.

[@rollbrettvm5930]

great series! keep em coming!

[@ericgolding4708]

I owe my sk8 life to you. will and always be the best Powell skater ever thank you for the search for animal chin changed my life.

[@mannyflo209]

I remember when I was a kid a young skateboarder I had a poster on my wall of him my mom said I wonder what happened to his neck that's why you need to stop this skateboarding shit so glad I didn't listen now I'm 31 and still skateboarding and so is my son

[@AceticTWO]

nice bro 🤙🤙 love your story

[@skater_dyejoshkarikas816]

its a condition.. he speaks about it in previous interviews

[@Chungustav]

My first skateboard was the red #10 with the steel wheels. Fell on almost every crack in the side walk in Long Beach. I remember when Sims came out with their wheels. Everyone wanted them

[@christianjoos7011]

[@MrButchersTube]

I got a metal wheel board in the mid 90's. Old sparky was a lot of fun at night on big hills. Great episode

[@brder4ev]

Man what a quiver you have, I want an original Caballero and kryptonics so bad! Have most of my boards from my early childhood even the broken ones, I sold a Sims snowboard with an Andrecht deck on it and wish now I never would have

[@peterjv8748]

Great vid. Steve used to hang out with the owner of Sessions skate shop in Sunnyvale which was my local skate shop. Steve was always super nice. We thought we were sooo cooool to be able to say we knew Steve Caballero. hahaha. And I know you're going to think I'm full of shit but my dad worked for Atari and did all the artwork for the game cabinet and marquee of 720. My dad even showed me the half-pipe they built at one of the Atari offices. And I guess they had a bunch of the Bones Brigade guys (and possibly others) just come there and skate it so the game developers could do some R&D.

[@chrisrichards430]

Guess you better watch bladerunner 2049 and explain wood from steel if you watch the symbolism of the korean and japanese buildings. I like atari tho. Pitfall was the shit.
