I skated this park back in the mid 90's and Mike was there that day. We took a picture with him and he signed our decks. What a great guy he was,a real class act and great for the sport like Tony Hawk and Steve Caballero.

I spent a few summers at this park w/ all those big dogs, it's amazing how much they helped us get better! I remember how much fun it was to skate w/ Jason Jesse, Danny Way, Steve Steadham, Reese Simpson, Bod Boyle and McGill the list was endless! I was 15 and Danny Way seemed like a little shrimp, a year younger, learning mctwists. He was fearless! Thanks for posting!

Dude had a lot of balls to even try a 540 in the air. Like Rodney said in the Bones Brigade doc, that you’re basically laying it all on the line for a possible life in a wheelchair? McGill will always be one of my favs, because of that. Plus his board graphics rocked too!!!

Mike McGill was always one of my favorite skaters back in the day. Along with Mike Vallely, Rodney Mullen, Jeff Grosso (RIP), Jason Jesse, Rob Roskopp, Steve Cabellero, Christian Hosoi, Tony Hawk (gotta show love and respect to one of the absolute goats), Lance Mountain, and one of the last skaters that I liked was Bucky Lasek. Those were the good old days of skating. Always remember, Skateboarding Is Not A Crime 🚫 lol

As far as I know McGill was never much of a street skater so when street skating took over in the early 90s he, like most pros of the '80s became has been status. He did start 'new school' team Chapter 7 but i don't think it lasted very long. I remember I had a pair of Chapter 7 baggy shorts back then but had no idea McGill founded the company.
