The Bones Brigade Video Show is a 1984 skateboarding video, produced by Stacy Peralta and Craig Stecyk.
It was the first of several videos produced by the Powell Peralta company, and showcased members of the Bones Brigade skateboarding team, including Steve Caballero, Tony Hawk, Mike McGill, Lance Mountain, Rodney Mullen, Stacy Peralta, and Per Welinder.
It was expected to sell just 300 copies on VHS, but it sold 30,000.

Damn I miss 80’s skateboarding. There has been nothing like it since then. Such a great time, skateboarding is so technical now, where it is extremely impressive, just doesn’t have the same swagger it did back then. The clothes, the music, the boards, everything was awesome. I remember buying The Skateboard Superstunts videos from K-mart. I watched them like 1000 times.

[@dolialbert]

This is such an epic video! Great job!

[@davidmg4216]

Excellent job this brought back so many memories well dine

[@westcoastg4life]

Amazing 🔥

[@hrod4387]

Born in '75, I grew up skating in the '80s, watching all Powell Peralta videos. The original Bones Brigade was my favorite. Thanks for making this video. It sure brings back some of my childhood memories when life was simpler and sk8-in’ was rad. 👊🏼🤙🏼

[@howardb.6205]

'72 and I still skate. Get some!

[@krazyscotsman]

Same born in 75’ loved the Bones Brigade got to see all of them compete at Savannah Slama 89’. First board Lance Mountain

[@BrianPayne-ef6kn]

Born in 76 and got back on last year after 30 years! LOVIN' IT!!

[@mobigsly9595]

Born in 76 started skating again 2 years ago.. this video sure brought back some Great Skate memories.

[@angels4sure79]

Great video bro

[@brianmcgill9434]

This was awesome!!!!

[@deco983]

Great job!

[@stevesaiz5412]

Wow amazing !! Awesome to see Lance’s old backyard!! All the great memories!!!

[@OH.A.M.]

Define the 80’s. Skateboarding!

[@Crillvester]

Lance Mountain skating through the streets and hitting up everyday street furniture and obstacles is very relatable as anyone with even a basic level of skateboarding can give this a go ( it's fun and accessible ). The general vibe of the video is so motivating to skate for the pure feeling that it still resonates with me today ( probably to others too no doubt ). Thanks for doing this video as 'Video Show' is a favourite ( along with Future Primitive ).

[@johnrambo7630]

That was awesome. Must've been a lot of work to put that together.

[@NielsCG]

Great video, enjoyed it a lot, thanks!!

[@jeremymtc]

I have no words for the radness of this location video. 11 out of 5 stars.

[@pasi8800]

This is absolute genius! I would love to see you do more skate video filming locations. As a skate nerd from Germany this is like a dream come true.

[@smoofest]

So sick!

[@hangtimedangjang]

Very impressive!

[@marksantosLbC]

Listening to your Bones Brigade Audio Show interview!👊🏻💥🛹

[@jakebunker8874]

Holy Crap!!!!!

[@skater_scott]

Dude! I just went in there to buy pads and didn't even realize that was that store! Bill was awesome!

[@lookbacklibrary]

Tremendous. Loved.it!!

[@swaney3737]

I absolutely love this! Grew up watching Bones Brigade!!

[@cobra935o]

I'm not sure how many times we watched this when we had some down time, or it was raining and couldn't get outside. Brings back a lot of memories for sure.

[@RSX1825]

Great job on this one Kurt! Not only well covered and informative but you made it very entertaining with some laughs as well. Had that house not been there it would've been awesome to see you skate off the roof 🤣

[@anadraham2995]

Bro - your insane for this one‼️‼️‼️ ABSOLUTELY one of my personal favorites 🎯🔥💯💯🎙️ Animal Chin next? I still have an inflatable map to the skaters homes if ya need it 🎯🎯🎯

[@gilramirez1373]

Awesome 👍😎👍

[@troopznz1029]

Thank you from New Zealand ❤

[@liv2ska8]

Wow... thanks for making this video . I can't believe you found all these iconic skate spots. You are AWESOME, TOTALLY AWESOME !!

[@Jeterax]

Boy ! This video is a treasure ! Can’t count the number of times of watched the video show. Was so powerful seeing all these spots today! Thank you for making this !

[@idkami.6733]

Yess finally

[@jamesjimenez1743]

Awesome 👍

[@notmillionaires]

Had me at Video Show. Kept me at Breakin! great video. Making me smile far too much. We watched this and then Future everyday after school. And when Chin came out it was just a whole new wonderful.

[@ShannonSmith-zt3vy]

This was so freakin’ awesome! Nice job on some of the recreations. A few of those I am sure were tough with Lance being regular and you being goofy footed. I had just requested you do a vid on the original locations of Del Mar and Pipeline last week. so was so stoked to see that! How do I get one of the 80’s life/Boneles stickers? Love all of your work but this one really hit home!!

[@vladimergustav5708]

So awesome!

[@GoingtotheMovies]

Yeeeessss!!!! Don’t do Animal Chin without me!

[@stamford70]

Brilliant Kurt 👏👏

[@89si49]

Love the vid and the Thrilla Krew shirt 🤙

[@neubergermj]

Kurt thank you so much for this! When do we get to see Future Primitive filming locations?

[@JB-sl3fo]

Such a cool video! Great work!!

[@withnme]

This was incredible! Thanks for bringing back such great memories!

[@Marlboro-kp7kz]

My first deck was Tony Hawk.I remember going to skateboard shop and the owner would pop the tape in the vcr and the group of us would sit on our boards and watch the video while eating Blimpies sub sandwich(they would hook up us up with free food)Good ol days!!!!!

[@cpost1558]

This is the coolest thing I've seen in a while. The Bones Brigade Video show changed my life. I was 10 years old in 84. I lived in Santa Monica in 87 and skated everywhere. I always thought of Lance Mountain and tried to skate like him when I was skating around LA. I bought my Powell boards at Rip City. Your video is so cool!

[@binkieruby2191]

Awesome video thanks

[@travisbell4996]

Great! I burnt that tape into the ground! Growing up in the Midwest, we only dreamt of waking up and skating all of those rad locations. Thank you for putting this together, next, Animal Chin! (invite me and I'll be out for filming)

[@illrobbzilla]

Great idea for a video I love it. The painters hat was a nice touch. We would get them from Wellborn paint store for free and then graffiti with sharpie with all the skate logos.

[@jetsons101]

An outstanding "Then & Now" video. The 80's --- best decade for movies and music.

[@berthink]

I love this video, and shout out to that Frankie Hill deck, he was a shredder too

[@Don-lg3oy]

Awesome video! I loved The Bones Brigade and all those videos from the 80’s. Also a huge fan of H-Street. I’ve actually wondered what some of those spots Matt Hensley and others skated look like today. Even just the sidewalk at the start of Shackle Me Not that Matt does the flat ground tricks on.

[@PrisonMike-]

SO many good memories from the Bones Brigade days. I wanna go back!!

[@TheSinDen]

Awsome video I had the Og one so seeing these placese 40 years later is super cool! Animal Chin next!!

[@OSoU812]

The Bones Brigade are legends of skating that can never be denied. What a great bunch of guys.

[@Rifleman4570]

Yeah, they were revolutionary. Rodney Mullen invented the flat ground ollie… that’s all that was needed to make street skating explode.

[@xtndo64]

Amazing work. I always wondered where a lot of these locations were.

[@jayfunk5988]

Obviously these spots aren't around(some of them) Great video ❤

[@Gcar-Squad]

TGIF!

[@dylandruktenis8332]

Love this! I would be into seeing more skate video locations

[@RetroEli82]

Tubular video Kurt 👍🏽😎👍🏽☠️🛹

[@petermandics1517]

Thanks so much for doing this Kurt. I was 12, working my 1st job in Boulder CO, building and selling skateboards & components in a small hobby shop. We had a 13" color T.V. VCR combo and we played this and all the other videos, over and over again, all day.

[@SBansal100]

THIS is why I’m subscribed!!!

[@PunkHardcoreDemos]

This was awesome. Do Future Primitive next!!

[@J_Swiss35]

Lance Mountain helped design the Peck Park skatepark you filmed this at. It’s my local skatepark and is a pretty fun.

[@yandman26]

I enjoy your channel immensely, bit this was peak. I started skating properly in late '88. My first video that I saw was Public Domain. I never saw this one until much later. I never realised the relevance of Lance coming out the chimney again in Ban This, until I saw it. Such a special time in skating and my youth. Thank you for this great video.

[@andybobandy641]

Alhambra to Venice.... man, that takes me an hour and a half by a car. It must have taken Lance all day on the skateboard!

[@lunarmodule6419]

You make my fridays! Thank you

[@green285]

I still have my Pipeline ID card, saw the Peralta crew there once

[@GlobeDecker]

Love this! Thanks for taking the time to skate and create! Isn't skating grrrrreat!

[@dave09650]

Not a skater but, enjoy seeing stuff i remember as a kid.

[@Goggen10]

Great video as always, loved it from start to finish. Keep it up! 👊😎 Love from Norway

[@NITE_SHIFTING]

YEAH! GLEAM THE CUBE BRIAN!

[@pandapropsncostumes]

Thank you so much for the trip down memory lane and the nostalgia! As kids my friends were always thinking "wouldn't it be cool to be like these skaters, be their friends and hang out like them?" Understand whether it be culturally, financially or family upbringing, many of us couldn't do that. It was also my dream as a kid to live and go to college in California, unfortunately that never happened. At least I can live vicariously through these videos! Thanks for taking the time to film and edit this and visit all the sites, that's a ton of work! Please tell me you will do Future Primitive and Animal Chin. That would complete the original trilogy for us that grew up with the Bones Brigade :) Thank you so much!!

[@AngryAsianOG]

Would love to see a Wheels of Fire one! Santa Cruz first big video and best in my opinion.

[@raf2269]

Pretty cool to see the og locations! Thank you for your hard work!

[@javig3853]

Dope video my bro!!

[@Micvic79]

Currently waiting on the " Stunt Skater " to start it's own KZbin channel 🤘😎

[@jameskett5241]

You went by the German's place that isn't the Germans' place anymore.

[@joseyeastwood]

Loved it, Lance in his friends were really good skateboarders. Looking at how things looked back in 1984 in now forty years later was amazing in how things seemed much simpler then.

[@bryngunn]

Loving KC on a skateboard!

[@mondovideostore]

Holy Shitoh! RADDDDDDDD!!!!

[@stevefink6000]

The first skate video was Skateboard Madness and Steve Caballero was featured in it at 14 years old!

[@ramonflores7665]

That was awesome! thanks!

[@zeikerd]

Do Animal Chin!

[@Micah421]

This video is absolutely incredible! Wow. For someone like me who was born in 75, grew up in Florida but lived in LA from 03-14, skated in the 80s, obsessed with collecting skateboards, I enjoyed this so much wow!! I hope Stacy appreciates this! I’m sure he would. This was really fun and I’m sure took a lot of research and work

[@Oceanlove888]

Love your videos!!

[@P1Brand]

Holy shit! Mountain Manor was across the street from Phil Spector’s castle!?! 🤯🤯🤯

[@TimandVic131]

The other dude skating the pool, which I believe was called “The Alien Bowl”, with Lance, Eddie, and Steadham, is Dave Bedore. Dave rode for Uncle Wiggly. He also did music for the H-Street soundtracks.

[@tres909]

This is the best video you've done so far! Keep up the good work, my dude. Once a skater, always a skater.

[@mutinypunx]

The ditch behind the church in Glendale was called Mini Wallows. It’s been off limits since the 80s as my friends from high school were some of the last to get the boot from it. It’s not far from where the Townhouses ditches were.

[@JIMMYCFC]

Kurt repping it for the dad's. U go brother. 💪

[@ToyotaGuy1971]

So _AWESOME!!!_ That's the only way I can think to describe this video! Thank you!!🤙😎

[@primokimo]

doood. goosebumps. the greatest location video I forgot I needed to see! mahaloz!

[@Raydawg]

I never got big into skating but this video was fun thanks

[@jakebunker8874]

Hi I’m Bob Burbanks and welcome to weekend today. We’re gonna find out on today show why proteins might not be good in your dogs diet and why that old sack food may in fact be better then that new gourmet canned food you can get at the store and we are going to take an exciting look at skateboarding, when I was a kid we used to take an old roller skate apart and nail it to a 2x4 but nowadays you can walk into a sporting good store or a drugstore and buy one of these, this is a skateboard.

[@djfivestar7585]

The gas station you couldn’t locate is on Santa Monica Blvd and Laurel ave. Santa Monica Blvd between Fairfax and Crescent Heights. The little hut building is still there.

[@extraniceness]

It was the same one skated in Blind “Video Days” right?

[@digitalarkham]

The Bones Brigade and Vision Streetwear videos were so amazing and bring back so many memories. Man so so expensive too lol. If I remember it was either 19.99 for a 45 minute video or possibly 29.99? Either way one of the things I love most about youtube other than your channel is the fact that I can have most of these videos to come back to over and over again.

[@50PlusSk8r]

Oh Yes 🛹🛹🛹🛹🛹

[@mvjmiranda]

Very cool. My introduction to skateboarding was The Search for Animal Chin.

[@bobbyjenkins7946]

Nice vans 👌

[@markgray5744]

Amazing video. Great work. Thanks. For this!

[@martinmayfield1932]

Welcome to 2024 where everything is gated or has security 🙈🤷‍♂️😂 #lovethe80’s

[@Rifleman4570]

I remember vinyl fetish on Melrose, it was on Melrose and poinsettia… Really cool store, we used to go record shopping there in the early 90s. That was back in the days before hot topic… You had to go to Melrose to get band T-shirts that you liked.

[@gordchapman3469]

Man, 40 years ago, my older brother and his friends were really into skateboarding and had their own half pipe out in the forest! I clearly remember him bringing this video home! I watched it and was just blown away! I watched it many times, even by myself. It didn't get me into skateboarding, since I was heavy into RC cars at that time, but I loved the action and music so much from this movie. Thank you so much for the memories!
