The golden era of skateboarding ... mid late 90s to early 2000s , now I'm old with kids going down memory lane with these videos

[@FabledCity]

I remember being at Pacific Drive one day and Welcome to Hell-era Jamie Thomas was setting up a board while talking to Jeremy Wray on the phone telling him he'd grinded a rail one stair longer than Duffy. In my head I was like "but Duffy did that four years ago." That's how long it took for the next wave of pros to start catching up to the trail he had blazed. Questionable forever.

[@storied_skateboarding]

[@Scarecrow-skate-racing-videos]

Well that's a hell of a story. All of those dudes showed us the way, but Duffy's part still doesn't make sense.

[@kerryogrady3637]

The way they did it playing "riders on the storm" over THAT lipslide,IN THE FUCKING RAIN,cultural perfection and made Mr Pat Duffy a skateboarding immortal,end of story.

[@storied_skateboarding]

So legendary

[@TatterD]

Hell yeah, we watched this all the time my senior year of high school. Videos were so important back then to get you stoked before you went out and show you what's possible. There were only a handful of local skateboarders, Tony Hawk was still years away from becoming a household name... the skating in questionable was so good it just made you feel rad to see it... living vicariously I guess. These present day interviews are so great, he seems so happy and modest. Living legend.

[@jjduffy5999]

Oh my god. Who made this? This is the absolute most well made, most impactful, story about my brother I’ve ever seen. Congrats Pat, well deserved. It was SO well made. Getting that respect from Foy, PRod, Nyjah was so cool, and the extra footage around the clips, so awesome. I loved the Sheckler / kick flip story too. But obviously, Pat being my brother, this was just huge. So freakin cool.

[@storied_skateboarding]

Wow, thank you

[@sammylindsay9236]

Pat is so humble and charming. Sorry to hear about your father.

I hope the younger skaters watch this. It’s so important to understand where things come from and why. Duffy is one of the people that literally made it conceivable for skaters nowadays to go huge. It’s all owed to the OGs who we thankfully still have with us to tell the story.

[@coolclik]

I perfectly remember the first time I’ve seen Questionable, the level was just unbelievable at this time, I was so amped that I’ve shown it to most of my skate friends the next day, telling them how much the video was amazing ! Of course Pat Duffy’s part killed everyone, the 50/50 on the kinked rail was a real jaw dropping to any skateboarders back then. And the whole video was pure motivation, after watching it, the only thing you wanna do was to ride your board and pushing yours limits. There’s a before and after this video. Still have my og VHS tape. I’m 50 years old now, some health problems, never touched a sick level, but still love and practice Skateboarding, this is the best thing ever. Better than anything else I’ve tried. Skateboarding is a life celebration.

I remember piling into a friends house the day Questionable came out. There were 20 of us in the front room and the minute Pat's part finished we all grab our board and ran out the house. Everyone was SO hyped on that part. Everything changed that day and we would never look at a spot in the same way again. Minds were blown!

[@storied_skateboarding]

So cool

[@Jakiejack]

Questionable was the first real skate video my parents bought for me other than the VHS tapes we would rent from the video store. When my friends and I watched this we all kind of knew we would never become pro's (We would say that we would be "average pros" after this video, like Phil Shao and Matt Pails lol). I still text my skate buddies from the 90's to this day and when we talk about our favorite videos we always say "Other than Questionable and Virtual Reality, what are your favorties?". I really do feel blessed to have been born when I was to experience this era, it was so amazing. Ineffable really

[@storied_skateboarding]

[@williamhanley7031]

In a time way before KZbin, the only reference point you had for skating was what your peers did and what you saw on skate videos. 'Questionable' was so far ahead of what we thought was the limit that it literally left us stunned.

It was our daily video before going out to skate. Thinking back about hokus pokus, soldier story, Frankie Hill then blind year after year the progression .

True legend! It's incredible to see this after when On Video Skateboarding did a documentary on this. I just want to say honorable mention to Danny Way when he did a Backside Boardslide down the same double set rail Duffy did. Which was also featured in Plann B Questionable. Everyone in that video was way ahead of time, throwing it down. Rest in peace to Mike T. Thank you for releasing the benchmark of this legendary company.

[@rzadigi]

This was such an amazing piece. I’ve often wondered how much today’s skaters know about the past, and all the maniacs who broke down barriers twenty to thirty years ago . But this show is giving the answers and paying respect to the legends that I grew up with. Seeing Pat Duffy back lip that handrail in the rain blew my mind more than anything in that era. Much love and respect to all the 90’s greats 🙏❤️
