It’s funny how I rarely think about Bob Burnquist anymore, but he was so definitive in my childhood and young adult life when I was really into skating. Your channel has re-ignited that spark, and I’ve been teaching my 6yo how to skate. He’s a natural. Thanks for the great content man.

Personally I think Bob's a way better skater than Hawk and has done some heaps gnarlier tricks than Hawk and most of em regular and switch. He's so good ya can't even tell he's skatin switch half the time lol. But he's 10 years younger than Hawk and Hawk did it all first so Bob just never quite got to the same level of fame that Hawk did. 🤷♂

You should have included my mate Chaz. This one time, Chaz and a bunch of us went to the Craggy, it's a local spot with like crusty tarmac and some gnarly holes. It's like a hill bomb but with slappy curbs all the way down. This guy called Tim Cragg tried doing 10 slappy grinds all the way down without stopping. He was on his 8th slappy and as he came off the curb he went head first into a bus coming up the hill. Died instantly. R.I.P Craggy! Any hoo, that's where the spot name comes from. Chaz wanted to honour Craggy by doing the run Craggy tried but wanted a launch ramp at the end so he could fly over the cars at the bottom as they went across the road. We all got hyped and did a pack of caffeine pills and Red Bull to get us in the mood. Chaz flew down the Craggy hitting both sides with 10 slappies then hit the launch ramp with so much speed he cleared the cross road at the bottom and carried on hill bombing the other side. We all blew up it was the most insane thing. Wish we had filmed it would have put Chaz in the hall of fame and put the Craggy on the map. True story.

I got to skate with Don, aka The Nuge, from around 13 til 17 or so. I met him through a mutual friend. The very 1st time I ever met him me and the mutual friend were skating behind this old theater called Almonte. There was this little dock we'd do tricks off. Some stuff to grind. Smaller stuff. But we were still working our way up. So we're trying new tricks and what not. And this tiny dude just pops up. Dressed kinda preppy. We get introduced. And man...even back then every trick he did was BIG. Just his flat ground kickflips were always so clean and tucked. And high. He's who taught me how to get my kick flips up high. And I never knew anyone who landed more fuckin tricks 1st try like him. He was and still is a cool dude.

I thought it was easy to spot. The 720 flip(?) flipped at a weird speed to which he didnt catch the board but rather the board flipped from the beginning of jump until right before he hit ground. I suck at explaining it but after watching a thousand skate videos thru out my life, it just didnt look normal and also, the skater looked kinda transparent. So Im guessing the video maker hasnt skated much or grew up watching skate vids. Also, off topic and while Im at it, he made a big mistake by inserting politics into this vid about skateboarding. Im not political at all, never have voted, but you shouldnt insult what could possibly be a big chunk of your listeners on a skate video, which is the furthest thing from politics. All my opinion of course.
