[@sunji2882]

To this day his Ron Chatman Experience Deck is still my favorite. Loved that artwork so much.

I just read this to Ron & he got all embarrassed! We are 50 years old, & that board & video were a lifetime ago....

[@ItisMeMike]

I love the masks graphic..

[@alstone5005]

@@RaymondNutzhornLet him know I just had to buy a vinyl wrap with those graphics just to put them on a modern board and if he had an online shop selling modern decks with that graphic he would have my $70. Some of us still rep classics

[@TheHoodGuru]

I got one from way back then still in my closet, never skate, brand spankin new.

[@flea2789]

Wow, talk about a simpler time. Truly a golden age. Listen to that deck pop and wheels roll. Ron was/is a great skater.

[@TheRalphus666]

I like that there isn't a lot of music just the wheels on the asphalt.I remember buying this when it first came out and of course I wanted to watch it right away but my old man was like shut this shit off

[@russhfilms682]

When I was a kid in the 90’s I use to skate with Ron with his huge Afro and shades and his camera

[@RonsWrecker]

This is one of the best parts of all time.

[@gurley123]

Here are a couple of things to consider. 1.) Ron was probably given about 10-12 days to make a full part. 2.) Boards back then were around 9 1/2" and nearly twice as heavy as what you ride today. 3.) Rocco could not have given less of a f**k back then. Ron Chatman rips. Mullen is a wizard and everyone knows it but nearly his whole part was flatland. Up until Rubbish heap, no one had seen Rodney skate "Street" and he wouldn't start his ledge/manny trickery till later

[@RamManNo1]

I wish more parts didn’t have the music. I like to just hear the ambiance of it all.

[@BLKR_JACK]

agreed

[@joff6897]

Best music ever my honest opinion. Sandpaper-y asphalt

[@Nominay]

Another part that proves new school was well underway in 89. Klein had more influential tricks, like 360 kick flips (as they use to be called) on banks, fakie ollie switch grind, and the first backside smith on a handrail, but obviously Chapman was as talented in his own way.

[@muskie4301]

this video is wicked. i got the ron chapman board after this video. the nose on it was huge.

[@ItisMeMike]

For sure.. back then it was a huge spoon to us lol

[@soulmachineNo1]

Ron Chapman was so underrated.....

[@KungFoolTheater]

Chatman

[@austin456h]

Chatman* ive been skating with him lately. hes still got it!

[@outsp0k3nmime]

wow nice, i wish i knew where that flatbar spot he was skate is at. its probably long gone by now

[@jaytv777]

he started the craze of spray painting your airwalks..he's rocking 'vortex' sprayed white..thanks for ruining all my great skate shoes Ron!

[@BloodyHammers71]

reminds me of my childhood. id watch this then go try and replicate it daily...

[@misledprops]

yeah man i agree, IT'S ALL GOOD SKATING TO ME!

[@Nominay]

you'd say the same thing about the top skaters in the 1960's just doing kickturns, wouldn't ya? Real genius there. This and Jeremy Klein's in this video were the first new school street parts.

[@skatevidcentral]

His names Chatman not Chapman. This is super old school.

[@BoutiqueFantastique]

Yes there there is a bluntslide in Shackle Me Not. I sure, I remeber copying that trick.

[@dilbertdoe601]

👍

[@cappierising1774]

Airwalk Enigmas.

[@manic1eightyseven]

that's cause rodney mullen wasn't a street skater in the 80s

[@pal6523]

toes

[@Lavern4101]

That's all true but I must add Klein stole the show.

[@gest667]

its 89

[@wbichan]

89 / 90
