[@dylansabbath9085]

yo yo otay otay whoops

[@spideyshiz]

I love you Andrew! ❤️🖤🙏

[@Sleeeeth]

This is one of the best episodes yet. The honesty in the conversations throughout this episode is awesome

[@RandyTwang]

I first found Chris on KZbin long before the berrics thing back when he used to do his trick challenges. as a skater who loves some good flat ground those were always fun to watch and he was damn good at it too. Never really saw him as a "KZbin skater" like some of those other ones, just a skater who's also on KZbin.

[@retrodaniel28]

I think the first video of his I saw was 7 skate tips something like that where he’s like hot glue your laces, carry water etc. And then I saw his unboxing vids where I thought were cool and then his like when you’re late to school or something. His videos are sick. Genuinely and great guy

[@KarpyCarpe]

I died when Chris started talking about cutting wood on Runescape with an auto-clicker, and they were all like "cut wood?!" Such a good episode!

[@animus1785]

Lol

[@chasequinn18]

you died?? are you okay? do you need help

[@KarpyCarpe]

I did, I've also fallen and cant get up.

[@psychoheaded5270]

ok?

[@KarpyCarpe]

Yes I'm ok, thank you.

[@MichaeMichaelMichael]

I'm an older skater, from the era of vhs skate vids, Transworld mag, etc. I enjoy Chann and John Hill, as they show the fun mentality around skating. Fuck this KZbin vs "core" shit. We're all playing with a toy.

[@johnmcduggle4032]

As a fellow Bones Brigade Future Primative fan I hear you and MOSTLY agree.... But, my only discrepancy would be WHY didn't they delve into the SKATING side as much as of making a theological, "This is why I chose U Tube over skating" episode.... All I All cool episodes

[@ksteneide2]

A skateboard may be a toy, but so is a football, a basketball, a baseball, etc and look how serious athletes and fans take those sports - Much more serious than skateboarding. You literally have grown men losing their sanity while watching the Super Bowl (over a toy). Good for Chris for finding his niche in a tough industry. It’s not my thing, but it doesn’t need to be. Nothing but respect to him. Glad he came on and told his story.

[@alanmartin528]

It's the reason Baker 3 was so amazing, you got the personality clips mixed with skating.

[@Old_man_Rob]

Chann , I back 💯.. Jon Hill , nope . King of "click bait" . He posted stuff just for the negative comments. It's still views , so he made money..

[@fiore_adriano]

100

[@JulianCummings]

Chris is definitely the reason I started KZbin & getting back into skating harder after I broke my ankle in college. I had to walk through that dark cave where you gotta figure out life - (after skateboarding) ... I held tighter to skateboarding even knowing I have peaked, I'm still learning hella tricks and facing fears. So grateful for your light in this community, always.

[@sandhanitizer15]

Hell yeah bro keep on shreddin'

[@therestingmitchface6241]

I loved rewatching Chris vs Chris and seeing Kelly laughing in disbelief at the level of tricks Chris Chann was pulling off

[@SebastianGonzalez-jm9kw]

Wild seeing Kelly there after coming from this interview

[@a7xskateboarding]

Kelly is literally laughing at everything, so that's no surprise

[@deroelige]

Tried to watch it again. It's like 10 fps now. Can't look at it like that anymore. This gives me a headache. No joke.

[@switchback3638]

@Hoodie y chris chann vs chris cole

[@solidrock6524]

Chris cole is a gentleman. Period. Go watch the Chris vs Chris, then listen to what Cole says on his 9club about his perspective. He did this guy a the biggest favor a skateboarder could r er do for an up and coming

[@Astheseaflows]

Stoked you guys got Chris on. Growing up in the 90's skating, taking a long break and coming back to skating in my late 20's i discovered his channel a few years ago and it really got me back into skating. Thanks Chris! He's a super chill dude IRL, ran into him a few times and he's such a down to earth and humble guy. Great skater.

[@michaelrocha4282]

4:43 classic “afk” on the ol RuneScape. Played for like 3 years straight. And afk (“away from keyboard” style training) was helpful for those monotonous skill training sessions. I got like 6 99’s, a lot of was afk and a lot of it was straight glued to the computer

[@sk8kr8siiiiiii]

I'm proud for all the skaters that keep doing it, for fun or for living. They all have the skill and dedication to do whatever they want.

[@gothsurfshorts]

this dude has a nice chill vibe. youtube skater allows for more creativity.

[@quezlark7875]

It's crazy you use to see young people online and assume oh they're lucky/get paid for nothing....homie was working going to school doing KZbin and getting to upper levels of skating all at the same time. No wonder he made it.

[@EmillionWayz]

This is an episode I always wished for in my head but never thought would ever happen. Super hyped on this one!

[@m.e.5313]

Great to finally see Kenny Anderson on the Nine Clubb.

[@dcross8382]

This was way funnier than it had any right to be.

[@scovell7]

Kenny mixed with Louie Lopez

[@Jblizzybaby]

[@robertpatterson5676]

🤣🤣

[@pedromachadosk8]

My favorite youtuber and my favorite podcast! Let´s Go !!!!!!

[@gunneryelton347]

I’ve been subbed to Chris since he had 2000 subs and I kinda fell off KZbin skating for a while. It’s so refreshing to see him be the same way he has always been. Humble and honest and just so genuine. Definitely a good role model. Watching him and trying to copy his tricks kept me out of a lot of trouble in school

[@solidrock6524]

Chris cole is a gentleman. Period. Go watch Chris vs Chris and then go back and watch Cole's 9 club and see the battle from his prospective. He showed this man the biggest act of kindness a skater could ever show another skater. Remember, Cole was already a MADE MAN....

[@SimplyJoshinYa]

Lol it’s a trip seeing chris on here I remember watching those trick challenges back in the day. Glad he doesn’t care what others think about the KZbin thing. I believe that mentality will be game changing for the youngins and the skate industry in the future.

[@luisruiz1385]

Honestly one or the best episodes, Chris is such a genuine soul. & amazing skateboarder

[@gfeast4518]

So crazy seeing Chris and Danny succeed, Danny is from my area so I’ve followed him since he was just a local kid doing strength and conditioning, then it was mind blowing to see him in California in Chris’s videos

[@juliangarza1013]

I am so happy this came out. Already finished watching. Chris chann has been one of my favorite skaters and KZbinrs since he’s been doing it. My two favorite worlds collide 🤩

[@allis8379]

Get the man another beer, damn!

[@GregMuniz7]

For real haha

[@ConnorMcSkaten]

I think Kelly died inside every time he said E-S game of skate

[@christopherrefusal4843]

I’m honestly surprised I had to scroll this far to see the E-S mention lol Kelly cool asf man. Definitely died inside tho lol

[@miscosoop]

Stoked this finally happened. Chris seems like a such a chill dude. What he’s done with his platform and community is amazing. Much deserved success!

[@SpikeValentine]

I wish this was an interview with Chris Chan, the creator of Sonic Chu.

[@KBies-ld9bg]

Glad to see it finally happened, Chris is awesome

[@EckmanAlex]

I’ve been watching these at work every day for the past couple weeks and was waiting for this new episode, to see it’s Chris chann just made my day 🙏🏼 here’s to another work day

[@aprilbabies452]

This has got to be one of the best episodes ever. So wholesome and brilliant. Had me laughing out loud.

[@SkateboardDad]

I hope this opens the floodgates of KZbin skater interviews. Mainly Ben Degros. 😎

[@marioperez9351]

Gifted Hater a second

[@MrBleedsBlue]

YES!!! Please get Ben on

[@Craven1]

Yes much agreed! Ben is my favorite KZbin skater personality person.

[@testtubebabies2394]

Please nine club we need Ben on🙏

[@Elliott.Revell]

It's all downhill from now

[@rockbandgamer]

No Way!!!! Chris Chann Is one of my favs. This episode is gonna be great.

[@mzzzz3]

chris needs to realize that he is the new generation and can be/ is a leader in it. He will be apart of the group that the future generation looks to for respect. Sometimes when your heroes won't give you respect then you need to stick to yourself and give the respect to those who look to him as a hero because times changes and the circle of life moves on.

[@bryceronie]

He is really really good friends with danny duncan as well they sure helped each other and im pretty damn impressed with both of them so successful and humble.

[@Benjaminjohansson93]

This was one of the favorite episodes ive watched i think! Such an awesome dude!

[@deeg4n000]

Honestly i dont watch his videos anymore, but im gonna check it out again. He was cool and i respect him.

[@Jblizzybaby]

Crob is interested in KZbin questions, Kelley Hart actually asking about Chris Chann’s skateboarding

[@peechabot]

the perfect balance to what chris chann actually is, a skater that does youtube

[@Jblizzybaby]

@@peechabot fair enough, i prefer the skateboarding talk though. I don’t care about Chris Chann’s KZbin sponsors, i want to know about how he started skateboarding and his favourite skaters; questions like that

[@rollo-]

@@Jblizzybaby I agree. They completely skipped over how he got into skating ect, and just started talking about youtube instantly. fun interview tho.

[@seymourskagnetty6498]

@@Jblizzybaby yeah man for sure. They missed the mark on this one. He is a killer skater, and they only discussed KZbin, most of us come here for the skate talk

[@johnreith4126]

This was such a wicked episode. So refreshing to listen to someone from the next gen who is so do down to earth and killing it.

[@zacharyangulo9456]

Great episode, please get Darrell Stanton on, that dudes always been top notch easy like Sunday morning lol

[@feral5404]

h town hold it down

[@NicolasPignoux]

Crazy that I discovered Chris Chann before he had a thousand subs! I used to be obsessed with his flatground challenges as much as he was obsessed with Sewa and Alex Mizurov!

[@cobratron5000]

Being jealous and envious are two different things. I think a lot of folks never figure out the difference and struggle with how they're feeling in those situations. Always love the show

[@sighndlease]

exactly what chris chann said- “…people who you were their favorite skater, now they watch you on youtube.” 100% kelly hart has always been my favorite skateboarder and getting to see his full personality and that mfing LAUGH just makes you love him that much more❤️

[@fr-ik3749]

chris chann has a great point at the end, i dont think everybody that write some bs (myself included) has to have issues. i know some really successfull people that troll or are just straight up are assholes online. haters excist in every level

[@CN86443]

Yeah that’s y I never get too worked up abt someone’s opinion bc Ik I say shit I don’t mean all the time bc it’s either funny to me or I’m jus exaggerating

[@jetwork131]

Yeah For example I’m not fan of nyjah and I will be vocal about it but I’m not jealous or insecure about anything about myself or want to troll or anything. Just plain and simple I don’t like the guy

[@simonmann8132]

Chris chann is the man, first came across him on Jon Hopkins open eye signal music video.

[@d_trick89]

Chris is the first KZbinr/skater that I started to watch on KZbin, and it all started with his skateboarding hacks video. If he had a board I would definitely buy it to support his journey.

[@openm2ke_810]

Love stop and chats. Always interesting getting to know someone, especially a skater I don’t know much about. Please please please nine club can we get either Josh Kalis or Chaz Ortiz on the show? I need some DGK skaters on here 😆

[@b.w.22]

That Kalis hasn’t been on yet is criminal. Talk about a real dude who’s life in skating has been so interesting.

[@jc2000bc1]

Been watching Chris since POV at the park loved this interview ❤️

[@Chrisjonpage]

I remember watching that season 2 episode w/ jimmy Fallon + Niestat and it blew my mind. Loved this episode, love Chris and his channel a ton, he’s super kind, totally broke the mold for “KZbin skaters” and I see him as an inspo on and off the board. All his success is v much deserved, excited to see what’s coming up next. Keep going Chris!🙌🏽

[@SkateFish]

1:02:03 What about the Chrome heart supply Chann board?

[@Nowayjjose]

If Chris had the confidence he would be on top of the world

[@chickenlegs4553]

Was hoping for Lucas Puig this week but I love Chris, looking forward to this episode! Hope you asked him about RuneScape. 😂😂 Edit: five mins in he’s talking about botting on RuneScape ahahahahhaha

[@seymourskagnetty6498]

Runescape for life bro

[@theoamentas12345]

Seeing dubs get so into the horror film conversation was something I needed

[@JohnDoe-qg7dq]

It's Christine Chann now

[@jacobmaul5751]

Love this one! One of the people that got me into skating ❤️

[@TheFilmSpace1]

Chris is the man!!! He used to hang with my brother Mark all the time. One of the best street skaters

[@rawxtir]

Had no idea about dude. All y'all are on fire for this one. Waiting to do First board talk at end is friggin cool. First hour he's so vague but y'all got through eventually. He's gonna get a bunch more folks watching his videos after this episode.

[@nathanskates98]

His KZbin channel has 1.4M subs, nine club has 200k lol this episode doesn't do too much for him in terms of adding viewers.. if anything the nine club benefits more from having him on lol

[@lazerflipz]

I’m glad to see Chris chann on the show. I’ve been hoping to see him on for a long time.

[@hassan4773]

Stoked on this guy. Not gonna watch the videos as it's just not the kind of thing I want to spend what little free time I have on but... You gotta respect the work he's put in and his humility and his obvious love and reverence for skateboarding. Thanks to everyone at The Nine Club for introducing me to someone I don't think I would have heard of otherwise.

[@worminator15]

Another episode I really enjoyed. Finally seeing Chris Chann there was rad And since you mentioned it: I loved the videos you filmed outside, e.g. the one in Boston, so I'd love to see more of that!

[@xavier4288]

i was in middle school when i was watching you this so cool cuz i remember thinking you were the highest level of skating and i remember watching the unboxings thinking how cool it would be to get boxes from addidas. i started skating addidas shoes because of you. this is real full cirlce for me. crazy how you felt like a fan but to all your fans you were as pro as it get

[@Mogely]

This was dope! But dam 40Gs that brand deal was a fucken steal 😮‍💨 But on the real Chris was a big inspiration when I first started on the KZbin journey literally a legend!

[@jerryzh0u]

woah. so stoked that Chris got featured! one of the realest, kudos 👏

[@livluvlive]

CRob calls everyone else's project "little" and it's so funny. "Mike Vallely's little vlog"; "Tony Hawk has his little podcast"

[@seymourskagnetty6498]

Passive aggressive jealousy prolly

[@MonkeyManMods]

Lmao as soon as I heard auto play I new he was talking about RuneScape lmao

[@zebalyon]

Please we need PJ Ladd in the show asap!😭

[@ashleybrown4754]

To the best of my knowledge he's never even given an interview for Thrasher, nobody. P.J. can't sustain talking for two hours I don't think.

[@jamesbalfour9855]

Chris is top 3 favorite skaters for me so cool seeing him on here

[@kryptichands968]

This really is the best show with the best dudes, serious. Its becoming one of the best things to come out of the internet for skaters. If you told me 38 years ago I'd be watching the best skaters on a phone at home, I'd probably would've punched you, plus I was 5 hahaha.

[@n0stalgia_ultra51]

Kelly a real one for actually knowing the things Chris has done

Chris Chann.. Check. Next.. Nigel? I'm excited for this type of interview 💪🏻 & Chris seemed quite comfortable here too.. good shiiit!

[@johnnypea43]

Not sure I ever saw his youtube stuff before, but after seeing this and watching his street part, it's clear that he's smart, he has good style and has legitimately made his own thing. Anyone spending time hating on this guy needs to get a hobby.

Can we get Chris another beer PLEASE

[@unemployedrobots]

It felt awkward when they say he could have made it if he went for a sponsor but he really did make it and is killing it. I dunno might have just been a miscommunication but I felt bad low key for chann. He’s amazing though. It’s all good. I probably misinterpreted. 🙏🏽

[@moegerms]

Chris is a talented skater but he's not IN THE STREETS as much as he could be. That's the reality of it. He's talented but I think even he would agree that he prioritized his own happiness with KZbin than he did putting in blood, sweat, and tears into street skating.

[@b.w.22]

@@moegerms - Yes, this exactly. I think you’re right and that’s what I think he was driving at when talking about his genesis on KZbin or whatever. It seems like he made a conscious choice to pursue other things than the pretty rigid pipeline to “success” in skating that existed prior to, say, 2010? He’s super talented, but so much has to go right to become successful at pro skating beyond just talent, especially in the past when real success seems like it was gatekept by the team managers at the different sponsors and board companies. And honestly, being an OG figure in creating that kind of social media skater lane is more noteworthy to me, even if “skating” still values certain benchmarks more.
