Skater's Favorite Skater: Chris Cole

[@TheGhostOfFredZeppelin]

*I've never ever thought about it but when he said that Marc Johnsons skating influenced him it makes total fucking sense haha!*

[@juliangrae5823]

Totally was just about to comment this lol. Their trick selection is a lot alike now that he mentions it.

[@karloisraellegaspi81]

it is the opposites that always influence you

[@130world1]

Yeah and Marc also got alot of extra footage, makes me wonder

[@andersonayaan133]

InstaBlaster.

[@Jeremyramone]

Marc’s q Lazarus song part is a bloody masterpiece, solid choice señor cole

[@skateandgeekout]

Yea, this reminds me to rewatch Fully Flared and In Bloom.

[@foreverendeavor7383]

Man down is still my favorite skate video of all time. Man to go back in time and be 14 watching that video again with my friends before heading to the park or just to skate. That was always the video we’d watch before going to skate, great time.

[@notch7751]

Cole is such a legend

[@justinchou2033]

I respect him immensely but I never liked his style. Looked too stiff for my taste.

[@ferox3334]

To imagine that a legend like Cole has a favorite skater is kinda hard to imagine but kinda obvious at the same time when u think about it

[@tylerriggs95]

It’s crazy how easy it is to see the influence of pros favorites on their own style as soon as they mention them.

[@MC_1993]

Great choice by Cole. Like how it goes onto play his entire part from in bloom. That backside flip down love gap...

[@kro87]

love mj's tiltmode army part. still have it on good old VHS

[@JonasPolsky]

My guess was Ronnie Creager, but MJ makes perfect sense.

[@skateman7151]

Creager is so rad

[@beautifulmanclub2512]

Cole won SOTY before Marc.

[@lopezlopez7808]

My favorite skater favorite skater

[@dewmontain123]

its been a loong time anybody else..? i would love to skate again this summer was the first summer i didnt go to the skatepark just work and sleep things slowly begin to fade and become memories its a weird sad feeling

[@wabisabiethan9906]

I went through the same thing, skated New Orleans today and it was the happiest I've felt in a while.

[@whiteymamasan4138]

That's racist and homophobic and islamaphobic and transgenic your a racist nazi kkk member

[@keithcalhoun4857]

I would but mine has been gone for years.

[@blue9300]

Same man. Life along with priorities. 😪 makes me sad

[@onezerotwofour184]

[@stusux]

That magazine cabinet is so organised. Its making me feel bad about my stash.

[@pleaserememberim9yearsold52]

Internet is my stach

[@thoughtprocess2779]

I miss all those big shoes. So much more support

[@wittvonwitt4403]

Me too they were awesome. All that padding. I miss the 90s....baggy ass pants and 48" wheels

[@andreself1374]

Cole u are an awesome being respect from the 916

[@Steezo_Romero]

Obviously love Coles entire In Bloom part, but there's something about that switch back heel on flat, to back noseblunt the bench line that really gets me juiced!

[@RedVelvetUnderground333]

Steven Romero that was the first video I ever seen, my friend brought it to class on vhs and the teacher let us play it

[@Steezo_Romero]

Badass teacher. Haha. That's so cool!

[@RedVelvetUnderground333]

Steven Romero this was way back in grade 6, sometimes he let us play with game boys and ds during class too. Good times those were the days

[@Steezo_Romero]

Pdrew What the heck!? Meanwhile, my 6th grade teachers were taking away my tech decks left and right. Haha those were the days, no doubt!

[@RedVelvetUnderground333]

Steven Romero strangely we weren't aloud to play with tech decks cuz they made too much noise 😂

[@justinmechanic17]

I still click on Marc Johnsons videos. Even last month over and over. Thought I was the only one. He is super good.

[@andymerkel6955]

talking about him in the past tense... ha ha... he's still around, right?! but yeah, he's right; I can't imagine the world of skateboarding without Marc Johnson...

[@matthewjames206]

Hahaha. Right? I was thinking the same thing.

[@christophersawyer253]

Andy Merkel I was thinking that same exact thing. I’m not sure Mark has a board sponsor right now, but someone needs to pick him up

[@Rufusdos]

Exactly... I wonder if MJ is persona non grata in the industry at the moment for his perceived betrayal of Carrol and Howard..?

[@SkateboardProphet]

This made my day, well said cole.

[@michaelswanson6677]

Hell yeah Chris! I can see why you picked him.. both of you are pretty tech creative.. with the exception that you're more gnar than him. Marc is like if Rodney Mullen was a "street skater".. like that's MJ! Super freestyle tech madness! Cheers Chris and MJ 🍻

[@mosmith3026]

Him and MJ both had full parts with enjoi boards that they put out on other companies. Would've been dope to have those and Mullen globe part all in an enjoi vid

[@ryanwiseman9141]

One of favs loves my fav, sweet!!

[@zuzurewind]

I just saw The Smashing Pumpkins a couple of weeks ago so nice shirt Chris!!!!

[@matthewjames206]

Me too! That's what I was thinking. But then I thought that maybe it's his kids doing an impression of the "Siamese Dream" album cover? Either way.

[@zuzurewind]

No you were right, it's just an alternate picture of one of the "Siamese Dream" shoots, I bought that same shirt as him and immediately got siked hahaha!

[@jimdavis6519]

That’s really cool when the guy from Braille is on here talking about his favorite skater

[@CT-nb5lm]

Marc can't stop posing after he lands a trick.. perma Steez.

[@joelkelly1192]

Puffy shoes and baggy jeans the way it should be

[@thisis.jacopo]

Thought the exact same thing ahahahah

[@davidwasneverthere8149]

The good days

[@MrLends]

best days!

[@bigcryptid448]

small wheels big pants good times

[@bewatermyfriend7355]

it will come back

[@oneeyedwillay2242]

Josh kalis gave Cole a $100 to bs flip the love gap

[@Stunnas89]

Yeah, you build the Love Park

[@beachballism]

other way around right? didn't he pay him to sw frontside flip it?

[@jamesbaker1392]

Funny now, because cole rolls in dough

[@the6ig6adwolf]

@@beachballism nah he paid Cole for the backside flip. Look up Cole's NBD part on KZbin pretty sure Kalis mentions it there.

[@JohnnySnipshow]

Common knowledge

[@armin38822]

0:46 I'm also like that. Those local skater who were the shit when I was starting to skate,I still ''fan out '' when I see them even if lots of them don't even skate anymore.

[@chis332]

chris cole!!!!!!

[@chandlermaguire]

my favorite skater too. a one of a kind talent.

[@stoenchu122]

And Chris Cole is my fav skater

[@kanescrimes4848]

Called it! I think maybe I've herd Chris mention this before. Can't think of any other reason his name would have popped into my head automatically.

[@130world1]

The quick feet with the regs, I remember that Chris Cole with alot of steeze

[@jeremiahreen5407]

Mothman prophecies bugged me out, kinda liked it... Anyhow, Cole is the skaters skater through my eyes. Bit ironic kinda.

[@booski1865]

Wow I was trying to guess who it would be before watching, I was way off. Great choice though.

[@ksrhys-]

that cab flip at 0:52 is better than just about everything i've seen on instagram

Total respect to Mr. Cole! Love you emo 🖤🤗

[@CaliBreeeze]

Chris seems like the coolest

[@AlexGordonMusic]

The best part of this video is the Siamese Dream t-shirt cole is wearing Killer taste, Cobra.

[@Brandizzleizzle]

Marc and Cole are LITERALLY my top 2

[@PotatoPlop]

yep.

[@fionnfinn]

I grew up with Marc .I am from Greensboro,and Marc lived in Marion,and skated a lot in Winston Salem NC...Marc's style was so smooth,he was so far ahead than anyone.Whoever reads this will know I'm telling the truth when I mention the people who gave Marc a hard time...The Dick Street guys were the worst,and random G,boro skaters saw how sick Marc was but they were annoying and had this ridiculous click..Marc is also one of my favorite skaters and one of my favorite people. Marc forgive me for standing you up.You may not remember,but you cleaned your whole house so we could sleep over and skate but we never showed up... I'm really sorry man,I know how life was in Marion, sorry my friend...I was so stoked to see you get what you worked so hard for..I mean your Chris Cole's favorite skater!!! Remember Kings in the ghetto of Winston Salem NC?..you did a 360 flip lipslide on that sketchy bar.....? The good ole days..

[@seymourcutts6952]

Chris Cole is so fucking good at skateboarding

[@randomname3715]

The Marc Johnson footage was ho hum. Then the Cole footage is Johnson on steroids. So much better.

[@MenacedAssassin]

Marc has a better style, effortless skating very pleasing to the eye..

[@mrfellah]

LOVE PARK R.I.P

[@thatoneguy7399]

The one talking about Marc is my favorite skater.

[@joebuczkowski8605]

Chris Cole is my favorite skater because he is my age, he switches styles from fresh to hesh, he does fucking NBDs, and you have to tie him up to a chair.

[@constantlydisoriented5311]

So influenced and fast pace

[@BLVCKSEA]

I didn't know that Chris Cole rode for enjoi 😮

[@recession81]

Awesome

[@deanazcoolzi4382]

That LA high school rail is back baby!!!

[@danielsummerour]

He beats women

[@michaelswanson6677]

2 bad ass skaters!! Fo sho. I feel that M.J.s part in Lakai was his best part.. and Cole's best part was the Fallen vid.. opinion ✌️

[@combatcontent1680]

[@TheFerryDutch]

I tought he was gonna say tom Asta

[@amateureverything1912]

Sick siamese dream shirt..

[@theweedwhisper3779]

I thought he was gonna say chris cole if I were him that’s what I’d say

[@tjg801]

I am pretty surprised he is not on adidas or something. I do not believe he has a new shoe sponsor.

[@cablr9555]

Volcom park isn’t indoor 🤨

[@MrAntdoggy25]

holy shit was chris cole good when he was young

[@wittvonwitt4403]

He's still good. He is the gnar king.

[@TheRickyp83]

Damn, is it just me or is Chris Cole starting to age a lot quicker? Just two years ago he still looked like he was in his late 20s. Now he looks like he's in his early 40s. It's like he just skipped right over his 30s.

[@seanfallo592]

Yo go find Tom Penny and do his favorite skater 😅🤙

[@euminkong]

He said Daewon and Kareem and skaters who are creative interests him when he was a kid

MJ is a class choice

[@leeentertainmentchannel247]

Chris Cole’s favorite rapper is Roddy Rich

[@Waynimations]

As much as I miss big shoes I really do prefer the slimmer ones

[@nvsoliveira]

Totally agreed, if brands could do that more elaborate design without turning the shoe a space boot...

[@travisperry4515]

yea that way you rip through it faster and have to by more of their shoes, big shoes are more worth the money.

[@Capitan_Chaos]

I miss the puffy tongues.
