[@EpicWaterFilters]

Super stoked on the little shout out! We're always hyped to support skaters and spread the importance of clean water amongst the community! We need to get Crob, Hart, and McCoy on the clean water train.

[@ichista]

Available in Australia?

[@JohnKirk]

Stoked to see unusual sponsors caring about the sport!

[@klg9239]

What about Jeron and Roger?!?

[@nicholasgraff894]

I used to watch Tom skate in person at this middle of nowhere park in Bucks County, theres nothing like watching dude IRL he's so fucking consistent and style is always text book on super hard tricks

[@jimcetnar3130]

Tom vs Maurio: Phriendly Phire. Part begins and ends at Love

[@sararhodes5884]

Budget or buttery: Kelly saying athletic grains instead of athletic greens 😂

[@Deltaskelta]

Def budget

[@mrsplitpea]

We need to hook Kelly up with a buttery english class

[@ozzydanger]

Budget all day

[@Buezok]

PA STAND TF UP LETS GOOOOO, 610 love, met both these guys from different demos and contest, they’re the best

[@KinyoHQ]

Just watched Tom's latest video with Kelly filming at Primitive and seeing Paul there, that was sooooooo siiiickkkk!

[@kaleem_k]

I can't stop re-watching the 28:42 wrist twists.

[@kenfriedle7743]

Always love the banter between you and Shane

[@scottieskatan4219]

Thanks legends love these two rippa's can't wait for the parts ....

[@darklight4815]

2 fresh Santa Cruz rippers right there

[@RLStine-dk3ux]

Hearing Tom mention Windsor.... Totally makes me wanna watch a Windsor 9 club episode

[@Sammybaked]

Such a great episode!! Loved all the conversations.

[@JosephACampbellJr]

I skated the Jackalope contest with both of these guys,and both are outstanding gentlemen 🙏🙏🙏

[@RLStine-dk3ux]

I love the way Crob says Maurio... LoL He does the best over the top accent

[@Bummycreature4kdinero]

The discussions about everything is so good

[@MickyThunderV]

Two favorite skaters as guests this is amazing

[@user-yf4jt9ge1r]

Can't wait for the versus video

[@nickbeattie3077]

I don't know why, but listening to this while practicing manual and switch was fun haha

[@likespinningpats]

That Nashville spot is legislative plaza. I don't know what it's like these days but it used to be a really big ticket.

[@northernnomad9046]

Awesome collab all around 👍🏽

[@TheAdaptiveMaritimer]

CCS custom boards are the best thing since sliced bread, lol

[@HellaHangers]

Loved the collectible and Pokémon deck discussion!

[@BLVCKSEA]

Would be pretty dope to see a show with one of the old Zoo York OGs...maybe like Jeff Pang or Peter Bici..or RB Umali..I'm pretty sure hes got plenty of stories to tell from the 90's to present...also a Kareem interview would be pretty legendary ....I'm sure a lot of us are itching to hear his side of the story and about what really happened with Menace..City Stars and Axion..

[@indiiiGo1223]

iii skated with Tom at Krush skatepark before the strange world premier demo. He was the most down to earth rad skaters (only an am at the time) staying on the box jus flip in flip out all day. Bro then shared a part with cobra absolutely insane!!!

[@skating_after30]

great episode

[@maga_skater4207]

IMO these 2 dudes are the current face of Santa Cruz.. they both shred at a high level .. I hope they both continue to succeed

[@ryanflanagan6722]

Love the duos! It’s had to have been suggested times - Gonz w/ Spike!!

[@hdrian_]

Over The Light is a good channel 🤟😁

[@Syms95]

Tom is the goat

[@ryanrowe1975]

Great podcast

[@loonyprism7310]

So sick 🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘

[@IWjake]

I miss the experience 😭

[@user-xm6ro1ep5d]

I remember how everyone was complaining about the song choice that Tom and Cole used, as if Cole doesn't listen to rap & hip hop Ridiculous

[@justinbishop7142]

Drop the calab vid!! East coast stand up!!SYRACUSE NY🧡

[@techn1que_]

Crob get John Montesi on the show. Shop owner in tampa bay florida for almost 3 decades and good friends with reynolds and clyde singleton among many others. Hes the raddest dude

[@DaveThree]

We definitely need a maurio & tom part!

[@_choke_on_wax_]

Definitely something cut out at the end of the twitch section, curious what is was. Amazing Episode two of the realist dudes!! 🙌🏻

[@hairdads101]

I was expecting Crob to say cafe con leche? When they were talking about the new dude skating gnarly rails at every spot and sitting to watch.

[@user-xm6ro1ep5d]

Cafe Con Leche? Is this some Miami skater ?

[@aleclottinville6830]

I live about 40 minutes from the closest skate shop so it's not always the easiest to get over there. Whenever I'm in that town though I will go out of my way to stop at the shop and buy something. I order stuff boards included online as well and it is hard to know sometimes the shapes are a little or the concave is a little different but that's just part of the game i guess

[@monatomic]

That plastic ground is fun for power slides. Not much else

[@TongueOfCrow]

Johnny Wilson & Pontus Alv would be awesome episodes

[@benjaminpowell4121]

The conversation on the Olympics needing to know whereabouts and randomly drug testing is insane. Skateboarding is what it is, can’t put it through a filter, I don’t know shit but that’s how I feel rad episode, these dudes are rad

[@capo_di_capi]

Actually you can blame the Russian Federation for it, every Olympian they had competing for most events were tested positive for PED's, so much so that they were barred by WADA (World Anti Doping Association) and the IOC from competing under the Russian flag for the 2020 Olympics, also those that won medals from as far back as Brazil were stripped of their medals as well. Its a constant game of cat and mouse when it comes to competitions and PED's.

[@_choke_on_wax_]

So true Southern Cali has all the indoor parks but none of the states that actually need them have them, Oregon has like none with all the rain we get it’s crazy. Maybe like two in Portland and a couple others that are private only parks.

[@normanl.6891]

The indoor parks here in So Cal are all private. Its either the Olympic training facility or sponsor/team rider private parks. Stop whining and go skate in the rain.

[@JohnKirk]

1:47:10 theres some channels featuring long lasting shops. I think thrasher does it.

[@amoeba_x]

I’m always checking the Chocolate section of Crailtap because of Crob and Dubs. Chocolate has such a crisp selection and y’all rock it good!

[@VintageSk8]

The skateboard community is so cool that I started a KZbin channel just to get help with my tricks. I am 53 and just started to learn tricks and because of my age it is hard to get lessons or someone to skate with, let face it I need someone closer to my own age to skate with otherwise its just wierd.

[@jmanborg]

🔥

[@gmoney87ism]

A thing to note is there are small categories that the skateshop has the edge. If you’ve ever been at a park or a spot and right on the cusp of landing something, your board snaps. you aren’t going to look for a board online. You’ll go to the closest place that has one. Unless you’re a complete diva that has to know the exact shape and wheelbase, but most of the time you’ll find something that works at your local shop

[@hourglasssox]

Yeah , Nashville has spotts

[@carlosl5766]

The shout out to Trey Hill! The Vb homie

[@HForHairie]

Is there any possible that you guys could call back Giovanni Reda and also Chase Gabor together? Videographer/Photographer perspective on skateboarding, working together in The Berrics (skate or dice, etc.), STORIED channel, SLS and much more. I think it's gonna be great episode.

[@hookskateboarding6929]

Crazy how many clips I’ve seen at that park in jerz and just learning now the ground is made out of plastic, jersey parks are doomed forever 🤣

[@schaeffercarroll6070]

This was tight winkowski next

[@LoganLaine705]

Maybe took a dip but it’s just a dip Nine club forever

[@preusbs]

Could Maurio not put the part out on Santa Cruz, Thrasher, & his KZbin?

[@cheesybeard2980]

great episode! and somehow crob said Tom's last name correctly each time?!

[@MegaAppl3]

great episode ! I follow Pedro's channel and Tom's and really enjoy them.

[@brianleivan1445]

Rog's Asta code was the best..always got me laughing

[@sour_dsl804]

Fuck yeah!!🤘🔥

[@JohnKirk]

39:15 I got the Asta space cat misprint in the VX with the ever slick but it was a 8.0 too narrow for me so I gave it to some kids at the park that didn't have very good boards. Also here in Midland, Texas at that same park we're going to have a jam for the bikes and scooters. Skateboards on December 16th and we're calling it Arctic blast. We're looking for sponsors. Hit me up. We want to make it sweet for these kids to help them stay encouraged

[@The-skate-collector]

Tom needs to come see our shity park in butler Pennsylvania it was half decent 20 years ago when they built the damn thing

[@funnyworks111111]

Anyone notice Chris is getting the Itachi stress lines?

[@dadsk8sxs]

Nine club! Waiting for the George Wang interview dudes killing it teaching the kids how to skate. 😮. Great episode here 🤘🏻

[@michaelgibis]

🤙🏻

[@brolando27]

Is Jeron wearing a Cadillac hat?

[@Thoughts_from_Tris]

Budget or buttery. mushroom DGK grip on element skateboards…???

[@jeremymurphy6095]

that Park looks just Like the First Park I went to in the little country town that was an asphalt pad, with Pink Plastic Hocky Board my friend swears was earlly skate light......It was Hockey Board material that was impossible to land anything on the pyramid when rotating, had basically all thhe same stuff like that park but the ramps has proper serious Metal to ride up the ramps on. it took 10-15 years from my City to get a Park while all the small farming towns got parks before, im talking from year 2000 to mid 2000s before ours designed by a BIKER, Seeing hhow far parks have come from the 1st attempts to now,.....................The Kids cant Skate the Streets too good round heere , which is hilarious when you were the guy who always had the wax on crusty oldddddd 90s spots

[@andrewmcquade9413]

Yo I that blue park??

[@buzzy-ears]

I see Tom's name in the title, but my brain still isn't sure if this is him or Luan 🤔

[@amyp792]

Can we get trent mcclung on this bad ass pod??

[@justinbishop7142]

🧡TOM ASTA🛹💪

[@Monteblack502]

affiliated marketing for each product! More income for skaters! 🔥

[@sethkobuck3860]

To the point of releasing video parts. Any skater who has a well established channel, should take the risk now to help build the future of self promotion in the sport. They're the pioneers of today

[@budsteppin99]

Good ole usada!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 man that's frickin crazy they just come to ur crib too like nate diaz shows u all the time

[@JoshP81]

Those “quiet” complaints were always so annoying to me. I applaud Tom for doing his thing regardless.

[@Z17xMachine]

Ken Park! Ken Park! Ken Park! Ken Park! Ken Park!

[@bronze4871]

Squad

[@isaiahdray]

awesome episode. McCoy, Asta, and Wooten are the best

[@tomas746]

Tbh both these dudes should just be on habitat lol

[@arthuuur1916]

Why does Halk & Wolf come in earlier in the morning than The Nine Club? A bit jockish. Also, watched Chris in the episode this morning. Chris, you kept it together and didn’t lose it no matter how cringe Wolf was being. Tony, you’d do better on your own or with someone else as a co-host. Nine Club, killing it as always ❤

[@no_name4aday]

Discount code stuff I live in kansas the local skate shop is at least 90 miles from me maybe 150

[@lukedavidson7646]

I started going to that shitty skatepark when I got back into skating because it’s by my house. It made me quit skating again.

[@joserxposer]

i was at the santa cruz event and it was sick to skate with these dudes.i think i snaked maurio while skating the euro my bad g

[@snapyourribcage6602]

1:38:55

[@monstertruck213]

Paradeworkd was the best and you’d get the cheapest price

[@dizmagee2846]

Go Birds

[@ozzydanger]

We need Rodney!!!!!

[@ryanblersch2035]

Can’t wait for Maurio’s part!

[@kl5818]

👍

[@andrewmcquade9413]

Why does Tom look like he’s related to Bryson Stott?

[@chinobean3555]

crob wants us to roast him

[@mrsplitpea]

Chris' OCD making him line the mic up with the board table is BUTTERY!!!!

[@carolynberge2919]

I’m torn about Street League and the Olympics. I mean, it definitely pulled it away from the core, no doubt, and the drug testing shit was wack. OTOH, you’ll notice that the minute they were no longer required by contract that they completely gutted the women’s competition.

[@KrudcoSkates]

There’s way to much to type about how the DTC effects and works with Skateshop’s. Parade was a great resource for shops and customers, just way to much to type about. I have been running my shop for almost 30 years (the oldest skater run shop in NY). I have seen the rise and fall of blanks and the shop decks arrive. We sell them to be competitive with pricing and get/keep kids skating. I feel that shops and brands all make sacrifices to keep the doors open and the wheels rolling.

[@franciscoramirez9867]

Love tom asta but he (like many skaters) always makes me think one thing: not a single bicep curl was done that day🤣 everyone should lift weights at least 20min twice/week

[@officialmilitaryskate]

Maurio should have got on REAL so we could call him “The REAL McCoy”.

[@analogalchemy]

MSRP on those Pokemon blinds was $110. Great episode with a room full of stand up dudes.

[@alexandercombs9643]

Please get Cody Chapman on the show!!!!

[@chasebrown7130]

I would rather skate at a skatepark with red bricks as the floor plastic is just slippery it gets soft from absorbing the heat it gets warped and full of sticks & rocks its not the move

[@SpaceBurritoo]

Get Gary smith from Vu
