[@xvln]

NKA deserves all the respect!

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

Thanks for all the love and support everyone 🤓

[@FakieGhettoBird]

@@NkaVidsSkateboardingloved you in Street Dreams man!

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

NKA is a legendary skateboarder and filmer.

[@FakieGhettoBird]

@@NkaVidsSkateboarding really enjoyed this episode tho homie. I’ve been peepin all the work you been puttin in on Powell’s channel but I had no clue it was a new partnership. Congrats man keep doing your thing🤙

[@チャーリーブラウン-w8l]

Nigel was one of the first out there pushing skateboarding into the KZbin scene, he deserved all the credit Also that he's been able to give spotlight to a lot of upcoming skaters

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

Nigel is a legendary human, skateboarder and filmer and he is a gift to humanity and skateboarding.

[@mossie7920]

Exactly man, he gives spotlight to people that are really fucking good but also are doing their own thing. Different styles can be seen on his channel. I am happy he was able to open up his comment section again. Cuz he received so much hate and had to close it for a while. He is a great skateboarder himself. But he started to broadcast others and that is what life has become eventually. Such a great soul. I love this man for giving controversial and text book skaters a playform ❤ he knows greatness when he sees it. No matter if the masses agrees.

[@NicolasPignoux]

NKA should be in every Nine Club episode. He has so much history with every skater!

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

I’m down to hang out with the Nine Club Crew anytime. 🤓👌

Couldn’t agree more!

[@DeyRADIANCE]

This comment wins

[@DJMPTV]

Nigel is a super cool dude. Got much respect for him! Nothing but positive vibes from him always.

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

I work hard not to spread negativity

[@noahschuler1205]

As a kid I discovered skateboarding through KZbin. Needless to say I’ve watched hours and hours of Nigel’s videos! Thanks for the episode!

[@YouilAushana]

When was that and what age?

[@scottgolds7065]

Dude Nigel deserves so much respect and thanks. Hes so good for the skateboard community and has done things that has helped push skateboarding to where it is today. Not only humble but truthfully loves it and wants to see others who do as well succeed in it.

[@mittenskateboarding]

Been a NKA fan for what feels like a century. Always watch his videos when they pop up

[@johnnyresin]

Nigel's channel was one of the main ones that got me back into skateboarding after many years of basically trying to ignore it because I couldn't afford to get hurt. Thanks to him, and of course y'all at the Nine Club I'm proud to say I've since torn 3 muscles and messed up my knees even worse than they already were! 🤣 Worth it 💚

[@JIDAYAH1981]

hahaha

[@dylanryan4145]

Ive always really enjoyed Nigels content. He comes off as a genuinely nice human being and it feels good to watch.

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

Thanks you 🤓

[@asuintrototheatre4317]

The Powell Peralta marketing approach is 1000% effective. I religiously watch every video uploaded from that ecosystem, and when they talked me back into skateboarding after 15 years, that Andy Anderson board was the first thing I bought. Completely changed my life for the better. Thank you guys.

[@landonowens889]

All these guys made me wish I never quit! Who knows where my life would be right now if I just kept skating and being part of the culture

[@Miadaskate]

A long time coming. Nigel is such a legend and he is helping a lot of talented skateboarders get recognized on his channel, and now some of them are on Powell! I discovered John Bradford through Nigel’s channel. It’s really cool to see someone’s talent grow exponentially in skateboarding. Nigel is a total class act.

[@Justin7861x]

NIGEL, this man is a youtube skateboard legend.

[@robertcarpenter3020]

Nigel is great. He always focuses on the fun of skating in his videos. I get the feelings I had when I was a kid when I watch his stuff

[@mattibluntless]

Nine Club energy with Nigel is fireworks, very motivating episode! Wish it was longer than 2 hours🤘😅

[@sharkh20]

I don't even skateboard and this man got me watching skateboarding daily for the last 5 years.

[@stonekeepnumberone]

Thank you Nigel! For everything you done for Skateboarding! Much Love

[@betterbrokenAthlete]

SO GOOD to see Nigel getting his own episode! LEGEND!

[@daniel_yeager]

Nigel has helped out a ton of skaters become more well known including myself. Stoked to see him on the show. OG for sure.

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

Thanks Daniel

[@SabrinaMorris]

This is great interview. I enjoy Nigel's work. I watch all the commercials!

[@SuriSanJose]

Nigel is a legend! Super cool dude. He deserves way more recognition.

[@JustinBehan]

Nigel's a legend! Reposted some of my videos on his channel before to help me out! A man of the people for sure

[@jesselegassie6246]

Totally stoked for Nigel's interview - man, his long cut videos are gold and the recent Woodward skate camp episode with && was awesome🤟

[@darude]

Yesssss! Such a great episode and great to get some background for the man, myth the legend that is Nigel! ❤

[@Spartan-301st]

Nigel is the man!!! He’s been in the game for a while and I love his content. Also major props to the Powell Peralta team as mentioned. Their cross-pollinated content lifts everyone. Andy is great, Nigel is talented, and I’ve been able to find and enjoy Dan, Zach, Chris Hiett, etc by extension.

[@rkulla]

1000% I was just hoping this would happen soon!

[@BentMode1989]

Kulla

[@StumpyMason_]

1000%

[@Uglier.]

That neck is CRAZY. pause

[@RATCHAFILMS]

Same here , Nigel is such an inspiration!

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

Glad you guys are hyped. 🤓

[@nikkanon]

Nigel is such a down to earth dude, with the biggest heart for skateboarding!

[@camonsen]

🤯 what an awesome episode on so many levels. Thank you boys, thank you NKA 🛹

[@hiddentape2911]

I remember Nigel doing collab's with braille back in those early days. Very humble guy and seems to love helping other skaters gain some exposure! Respect

[@felipevilla4172]

NKA makes great videos! Glad y’all had him on and gave him props.

[@ChrisC-yv8bz]

So rad that nka is native. Such a good role model

[@TheGreatKrystoff]

We love Nigel!!!!!!!!!! The most wholesome man on youtube. The legend. Love the Dan Corrigan shoutouts!

[@Doodlelini]

well grounded individual. This episode had a nice flow to it.

[@TheAnimeist]

Nigel is a great ambassador. I love watching his work, behind the camera, and on a board.

[@Craven1]

I am so glad Nigel is on here! I watch his videos all the time and I had no idea any of his backstory. Thanks Nigel and Nine Club!

[@tomasviquez6881]

Dude I watch all the adds for this one haha! Been a fan of NKA for 8 years already. So hyped this one is out! Bring'im more often dawgs!! This one killed it.

[@SirHackAlot23]

Nigel is the man!!! So glad you guys had him on the show

[@caloyssk1]

The O.G KZbin guru 💪💪💪 and skate site was my library, thank you! Here's my theory -one factor reasoning why P. Rod was a wholesome skater meaning all sponsors loved him is because of what a positive & disciplined mentor Nigel was, it does shows on how Nigel keeps away from having a "bad image" and he focus more on helping try looking what good/positive any situation brings to him. Also you can feel+see how genuine he is on the clips/videos showcasing. or maybe vice versa. He is somehow the present version of stacy+powell and he really fits with powell, very professional & proper

[@worminator15]

I always wished for this episode. And here it is! How rad!

[@Dechral]

No way Nigel!!! Long time coming! Thx for having NKA on the show Crob!

[@xrichiexg]

Let's goooo I friggen love Nigel!! Kid deserves way more then just being one of the best skateboard and OG skateboard KZbinrs!!!

[@michaelnusbaum]

Congrats Nigel! Well deserved and long time coming. This was an awesome listen.

[@scottishinglish331]

So stoked to see Nigel on! He does his thing so we’ll. Stoked y’all talked about Dan. Keep killing it!

[@westsideskateshop564]

Yesss so hyped to see this! Nigel is the man, such a chilled dude. Great episode guys!

[@bryanmenke]

I’ve been waiting for this one. Thanks guys cheers!

[@thenineclub]

Thank you for the support!!

[@YoungJeezus1]

I remember first time I met Nigel he was doing Clips of the Day He eventually came to prods skate plaza, I was learning a new trick (nollie gazelle flip) the second he was setting up his camera equipment, I landed it! Dapped me up, never landed again..love you NKA!

[@aimdotsight]

NKA is a true legend

[@TheGregbueno]

Nigel is awesome, love how positive he is all the time

[@sebastiancastro8111]

He is a pretty good skater himself in my opinion.

[@Rvbeus]

So deserved NKA is so vital to the grassroots of skateboarding

[@snaleman6999]

Grass-roots of KZbin* SK8BOARDING HAD ROOTS WAY BEFORE THE INTERNET YOUNG HOMIE. ALL LOVE THOUGH. UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU MEANT DOE.

[@Rvbeus]

@@snaleman6999 I’m 32 brother young is gone lol I mean he is crucial to bringing new dudes up. Think of the Zach Doellings of the world he’s a real spotlight on these dudes and can get them in the industry

[@SirDersthe3rd]

Talking about ....being single, taking care physical body, of having no kids, so great my heart flutters hearing you all talk about experience. . . And it's great to know you are here for growth... I watched this Nike running warm up stretches video it helped me it's like 3-4 leg stretches... Y'all are deserving the best keep sharing

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

I’ll keep that info coming on my channel

[@user-mi2mq6gh4z]

Awesome, Nigel is such a blessing to skateboarding scene!

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

[@DylanHughesPhotoVideo]

Nigel put up my first full length video “Hullabaloo” on his channel in 2012… Florida video with no big name skaters at the time, although Jamie Foy has a part and went on to be known. Anyway, he was down to post it, and for me at the time that meant a lot. Respect to him for that 🫡

[@jakeowenpowell_]

Been subscribed to NKA for 10+ years but only now have I realised he sounds just like kermit the frog, specifically at 34:04. Rad ep, big up Nigel!

[@brettharmon4738]

Loved this episode! I have met and skated(well, stood and watched him skate) with him at numerous valley spots and the OG berrics. The nicest fucking dude. Deserves all the respect.

[@mr.surprise2341]

Finally the godfather of KZbin skaterboarding! great episode fam.

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

😂🙏

[@GlowHurtHuman]

NKA is where I found a lot of amazing skaters! Great interview.

[@downshiftingisfun7046]

I’ve been waiting years for Nigel to be on the show!

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

It was the right time 🤓

[@karank0]

This was a dope conversation! Loved the KZbin talk

[@maxwellharmon4172]

FINALLY!! THE ONE AND ONLY!!! NKA !!! HELL YEAS!!!!

[@xrichiexg]

Oh come on Chris!! There is never enough Andy!! He's so unique!! Every day watching Andy is a true trip!!

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

Much love and respect to you Nigel.

[@currenconner7098]

Stoked to see him on finally such a great dude, maybe we get another with more backstory??

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

I’m down if they are.

[@zibel5007]

Been watching NKA's vids since forever, it's cool to see Nigel is still kicking it. P.S.: Kelly's position in the ending credits

[@Telvarous]

This was such a good episode. Ive been watching Nka for years now, I now have watch so many skaters i would have never known about because of him. Also was cool to see them mention the benches in Oxnard. I would skate them with my homies all the time as a kid.

[@Frank-Kolondra]

Great episode! Nigel is awesome! Also, Andy Schrock is the man. I grew up watching his videos on KZbin. I also worked for Andy for a few years and even after I stopped working for him he has always been super cool and supportive. The whole crew behind Revive Skateboards are amazing people. Would love to see you guys get Andy on here sometime!

[@StumpyMason_]

Hell yeah, can't wait to hear all the insights! Chris is very happy :D

[@GoreGalore86]

I wish I could thumbs up this video more than once. So much awesome skate knowledge and nostalgia.

[@BigDog8162.0]

One of the best ones yet! So informative!

[@_Haas_]

That was a pleasure to watch. Blurrp & sizzle. 🏄‍♂️ 🙊

[@bobdiesel2238]

Nigel is such a rad dude. Loved this episode

[@jorge12films]

Nigels acknowledgement of his reservation made me realize why i love skateboarding. Its the community aspect of it. and now that i don't skate i find myself looking for one. great podcast.

[@Mocroskate]

This Podcast was amazing!!! I learned so much and Nigel is such a legendary person in Skateboard filming. Truly enjoyed it.

[@gooseallie4417]

I always wanted to go filming with Nigel when I was coming up in skating never got to. Dude is a vibe and seems stoked having fun 24/7 respect

[@UppingDowners]

Same I’m out in the inland empire Never had the money to be out in LA where ever he was cause I never had a promised ride home 🏡

[@wydnoob5974]

Same man . I’m from riverside area so it was so far away

[@pjb4653]

[@mikkess]

I love this episode, it’s the union of two of the greatest laughters in skateboarding: Kelly Hart and NKA! They feed off each other it’s hilarious ahah

[@Bobbysk8salot]

I used to call him “P-Rod’s KZbin homie” when I was a kid! Nigel is GREAT! 👏

[@NkaVidsSkateboarding]

😂😂😂

[@Bobbysk8salot]

@@NkaVidsSkateboarding you are a legend dude! Thanks for everything!

[@SirDersthe3rd]

Nigel heritage beaming 😁 thanks nine club... The greatest of all time

[@NBSLiVENetwork]

So happy to see NKA on. Dude is a legend. Awesome

[@arcthc]

I met Nigel at the courthouse ledges in 2018 when i was 16. It was my first and only trip to California so far but getting to meet him even just saying hi for a secound and seeing how he is exactly the same on and off camera was the highlight of my trip. Watching his videos for years to get hyped before skating it is cool to know how genuine he his.

[@SofaKingWeTodEd]

Much love Nigel! One of the coolest humans and been 100 since the Northridge Skatepark days (I’m sure even beforehand, that’s just when I met the dude)

[@cheesybeard2980]

watching this, liking this and letting all the ads play in full !

[@rawxtir]

oh snap this is like in top 10 of all nine clubs- had no idea dude is native- all y'all are in most roped off conversation mode- big ups pure fire

[@uvwevwevweonyetenyeubemuge4036]

the 9club is really dope!! Always watching videos really helps me with my sleeping problem🎉

[@MrMLajoie]

huge fan of Nigel's work. not that big on the whistling in his videos, lol but his channel is the best. tons of respect

[@AdventuresInSkateboarding]

This was great. He made his own success doing what he loves. That the dream. Really appreciate this conversation. My channel is just a hobby channel. I have never tried to monetize or taken any free product. I just enjoy the process and learning about it all. Maybe in retirement I will start a separate channel from skateboarding, another topic. I just really enjoy sharing my crappy skating.
