Rich's Skateboard Collection - Can't Help It Just Love It - EP 1

[@neocvera]

Just stumbled on this - you showed some of my boards and a lot that I remember. Good times. I have that Caballero deck also and NEVER noticed the bones. Good stuff.

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Thanks! When I saw a video about the bones on the Cab my mind was blown. 😂

[@atodamadre3197]

I still have my cab deck from 87 with boneite also. BTW you collect decks for the same reason I do, I wanted mine when I was a kid but couldn't afford them. I have a gator, roskopp face, psycho stick, and like 4 cab reissues. I also have the limited edition helicopter cab deck that they only made 500 of

[@jaimefernandez3076]

Time Machine! Nice collection. My first board was a dragon flea market then graduated to a Jeff grosso white toy box with independent trucks and oj2 combos. Wish I could get the re-issue but they don’t make them anymore. Great video!

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

That’s awesome! Love that graphic. I wish I still had my cab together as it originally was. You don’t think about it when your younger.😂

[@BreBlyth]

Just stumbled upon this, I bought my first pro deck at D&D in Kitchener, 1986 Gator, green black graphic. I don’t have the board anymore but I’m still skating. Take care. Hey, did you ever skate the quarter pipe at La Capana? (near Super Centre) might have skated together. Mark B.

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Small world. Ha ha. It doesn’t sound familiar, didn’t skate a lot of ramp back in the day. Now I do and bowl, nothing like it. 🤘

[@reidellis1988]

Damn.. those tracker trucks with copers. Plastic baseplates were a bad idea. Sick collection.

[@MyAirsoftRealm]

That's one cool family!

[@LaterSkatersGang]

🤘🤘🤘 thanks!

[@ExploringwithCarl]

Very nice collection there. I'm going to buy a Rob Roskopp reissue soon. I'm 49 and want to do a bit off skating again but nothing crazy like in the 80s. Catch up soon new sub thumbs up

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

New colourway is killer on the Roskopp. I wanted to buy it to skate as well. Love that board and shape! Have fun if you buy it!

[@ExploringwithCarl]

@@richardpatmoreart7099 yep I've done a part one video on it and will do part 2 next week when my trucks arrive

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

@@ExploringwithCarl just watched. Making me want to skate that deck even more. One of my all time favorite graphics! Perfect choice in rails as well. 👌

[@ExploringwithCarl]

@@richardpatmoreart7099 Thanks Richard, i do too a wish my trucks would come soon :)

[@matthewcody1757]

I'm 46 and also have a modest collection of boards I couldn't have and loved as a kid , so I get the love too bro , peace from Australia , PS I'm really digging Don Pendleton's Darkroom boards ATM and have added a few to my walls ,

[@BrewtalHonesty]

Awesome! Should do a video showing your collection. Would be cool to see. Both my wife and I also love Pendleton’s boards and art!

[@itburnswhenip.7217]

Thanks for sharing...amazing collection.

[@annaskates1380]

Your artwork is incredible

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Thanks so much!

[@MarcoEckhardt]

Awesome collection! Really love that your whole familiy is into it! Got only a few myself, but starting to collect more. Got the same Tony Hawk re-issue and a Shorty’s Chad Muska silhouette re-issue!

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Appreciate it! Having the whole family into it can be dangerous. Fill up the walls too fast. Ha ha. It is awesome! Lucky to be a skate family. I love that hawk reissue, the natural wood with that pink/purple looks amazing.

[@firefighting.responder]

Dude I miss my Gordon & Smith Nicky Guerrero board from either 87-88....

[@chromatic1976]

Awesome collection! I still have my original Salba with the tiger and love it so much, thanks for sharing

[@southpawdj]

What a flashback, I remember either myself or my friends having most of those old decks. Love the collection!

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Right on, thank you!

[@bondalero0074]

I’m a skater/collector too and I’m in Love with your Corey O’ Brien, Jason Jesse decks and Natas; still looking for them but price and availability is getting crazier by the minute.I have alot of the others (Santa Cruz & Powell) you have but R-E-S-P-E-C-T all your collection. I started collecting in 2000 with Santa Cruz and now working on Powell. My 1st pro deck was the Jeff Kendall(World Ends)87’ and was able to get the reissue which fueled my obsession! #Awesome#🛹❤️72’

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Right on thanks! Would be awesome to see your collection as well! I started collecting the reissues when the green Roskopp came out, haven’t stopped since. Ha ha. Having ‘the disposable skate bible’ book was also a huge catalyst. Great book.

[@bondalero0074]

Thanks, the Skate Bible is one I need to get even saw a video about it. I had got the Jim Phillips book because I’ve always been his #1 fan along with Pushead, & VCJ. The 80’s where such a great era in skateboarding because of graphics & shapes which made each deck a work of art itself. Once big pants & small wheels hit the scene it only got worse with the popsicle craze that I personally found so boring so I looked and searched for those older boards or Re-issues like yourself and many others.@@richardpatmoreart7099

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

@@bondalero0074 I love the 80s boards as well. They are works of art. Shape, graphics, colour. All good! I have the Jim Phillips books as well, his art is amazing! I definitely recommend the skate bible. It’s eye candy, going from one decade to the next. So many boards I forgot about until getting that book. It’s one that I keep going back to.

[@timeepicvideos]

super cool collection the wall on the 4 min mark as you said loved these boards in the 80 I skated the Natas in the 80s got a reissue again now with some original slammer wheels to skate again

[@burtman9649]

Awesome! I think your Jason Jesse sungod & the Salba are for blacklight! P.S. I have the Thrashin DVD signed by Hosoi & Alva ! 2012 Journey's Backyard BBQ in Grapevine TX 🔥

[@BrewtalHonesty]

Oh shit! I didn’t know that. Now I need a black light. 🤘 Also, amazing you have a signed copy of thrashin! One of my favourite movies growing up.

[@burtman9649]

@@BrewtalHonesty I'm pretty sure it is my favorite movie! On top of all the Cheech & Chong movies! Ha

[@aovermont]

Incredible collection. I miss my Schmitt Stix Lucero. I bought a new black label it's just not the same. Also bought a Caballero- never knew about the bones in background thank u! A year ago I saw a bunch of Jason Jessee and Grosso and Roskopp. Now, I can't find anything. What happened bro? Thx for the epic vid! Cheers! ~VT sk8r '74 🎸

[@richardpatmoreart7099]

Thanks! Wish I had an original Schmitt Stix as well. They just reissued the Roskopp recently. Awesome colourway , actually wanted to buy another one to skate. Ha ha. Haven’t seen anything on the Jason Jesse or Grosso though. Appreciate the comment, sorry about the very late response.

[@radrebelroom8113]

Awesome collection!

[@tiffaneypatmore4089]

Awesome video. Great collection!

[@LaterSkatersGang]

Thanks Tiff!!!!!

[@KeithCanisius]

I agree with you about reissue's 100%. You bought it cause of the graphic.

[@voidkid420]

I always smile when someone says Gullwings :)

[@voidkid420]

and a great job on the vid, a lot of nostalgia in an awesome collection.

[@BrewtalHonesty]

Right on thanks!

[@bondalero0074]

GullWing makes the Street Shadow trucks($28 TGM skateboards) still that has the old bolt pattern for re-issues because the Indy trucks with 6 holes are getting hard to find.#FYI#🛹❤️

[@voidkid420]

@@bondalero0074 It had been so long [since I was a kid] I just assumed Gullwing were a part of history :)

[@bondalero0074]

I was in the GullWing Army in the 80’s myself and then GullWing came out with the Street Shadows in the mid to late 80’s with thick polymer baseplate I put on a Powell Ray Barbee “RagDoll” that were awesome! I switched over to Indy’s in the 90’s and ride still today but I ordered a pair of the NOS Street Shadows last week for an H-Street re-issue and TGM Skateboards has them for $28 a pair! So I got them and Love them perfect fit/function just like the old days!#🛹❤️🤘🏻 @@voidkid420

@@angelokefalas3750 thanks! Appreciate it. Sorry hit the dislike button by accident. Damn small buttons. Lol. It would be amazing if he did a collab with Powell.

[@roberthartmann782]

I have almost 100. Or 100.. but my wife thinks I have over. I have like mixed boards. From original decks to reissue decks. And some cheap boards or bootleg look alikes... but kool collection you have there.. I wish we had skateboard parks here in Maine. But finally something happening for Bangor Maine to have there home made park be rebuilt and I guess finally Tony hawk foundation is helping it out. But it's far away from where I live. But I was skateboarding back then in late 80s and early 90s then I had to get a job between years because I graduated from high school in 93 and I had my first son in 94.. i been threw hell and back. 3rd marriage now.. luckily no kids with second exwife.. but 2 adult kids from my first exwife and 3 lil kids now with wife I'm with now.. I was homeless before but I kept my skateboard collection in storage in my moms boyfriend garage.. I was homeless because of paying child support.. but I manage to live threw it all. Now I'm 46 oldfart now.. I'm on SSI/SSDI now for income. Sucks because I cant give much to my wife and my lil kids I have now. I was homeless from 2007-2012.. but I manage to keep my collection for my lil kids..

[@BrewtalHonesty]

Damn! Appreciate you sharing. It sounds like it was tough but you have your kids, wife and the board collection! Can’t ask for more than that. I look at the boards on our wall and it brings me joy. It’s hard not to be a collector. 😀 Skateboards rule! Friends of ours built us a small quarter during covid, it’s nice to have something to skate while in lockdown. I’m the same age as you and enjoy skating now even more than I did when I was young. Shuts everything off for a while and makes you focus. If you ever get the chance, it would be cool to see a vid of your collection!

[@johnm3946]

Alot of reissues are made in their original presses so they're just as good if not better.

Hey Richard! Was letting you know that TGM skateboards has legit NOS Gullwing 850's for only $29.99 ! No tax and No shipping fee for Fedex. I got a set WOW yes 2 trucks for that price.

[@BrewtalHonesty]

@@BrewtalHonesty I've bought a lot of skate gear from those guys! Prices are crazy low!

[@bondalero0074]

Yes Sir! I’m an old GullWing Army cadet too and got me a pair of GullWing Street Shadows last week from TGM for $28 free shipping! Awesome trucks just like the ones I had as a teen in the late 80’s! The 6 hole Indy’s were getting hard to find but still had a couple pair laying around so figured for $28 bux you can’t lose. One Indy truck cost that much these days so give them a try!#Win/Win#🛹❤️🤘🏻

I have a single gullwing truck. White hanger with a black plastic base for some reason. Hit me up. Maybe it's compatible with the one you got. I couldn't tell if your base plate was plastic or metal.
