1990's skateboarding was the best era and I'm so grateful to grow up in it. No cell phones, you just skated with who was there when you showed up... just raw love for skateboarding. There was cool guying people hierarchy bs, but not nearly as much as today. I show up to a park in LA and people act like I just picked up my board yesterday when in reality I've been skating longer than they've been alive.. there's zero skateboarding community vibes in LA if you are older than 30.
That was pretty much like my late 90's- early 2000's in the UK. All sk8ers mostly knew everybody, we had 2 skate shops owned and run by sponsored sk8ers. Great energy and vibes. 🙂
I skated everyday during the mid-late 90's. ''Girl'' was the my favourite brand during that time, but when ''Fulfill The Dream'' came out all I wanted was a Muska deck
I felt that skateboarding in the mid to late 90's was in a good place. Not a lot of big corporate brands flooded the market and skater owned companies were doing good. I feel priveleged to have experienced it. Thanks Shredz Shop for reminding us what made the 90's the last of the great decades overall.
I got my first board in 89. The nineties were awesome. I got flow shoes from Sheep back in 97. Life was simple and fun. Kick flip down down 8 stairs good. I got a Nollie tre down long 4 and it was big. So much progression in the last 28 yrs. Keep skating cause you love it not for money.
the first with a double tail but not the first marketed as a street deck. I have a Blockhead deck from 85 called the Streetstyle but it's just a smaller version of their other decks basically. Either way, you guys are correct.
Great video! All the memories of my 90's skate life are flooding back. It was epic to be a teenager in the most creative and progressive decade for 3 of my passions... Skateboarding, music, and art. Baggy pants, small wheels, fat grafitti markers, hip hip cassettes... Man, I feel old now. 😜
I’m 46 and I’m bummed in all these 90 nostalgia videos no one ever mentions my favourite skateboard company. THINK! They get no retro love :( think deck, venture trucks and pig wheels! Sk8 or die !!! Good video though. Ps my favourite skater was heath kirchart !!
My favorite part about growing up skating in the 90's was the fun and interesting board graphics, CCS catalogs, and watching skate videos like Fullfill The Dream and Osiris The Storm with your friends before you went skating.
Please give a shout out to JODI ARIAS for saying that skateboarders flipped her license plate upside down for kicks and not her trying to thwart traffic cams.
90ties kid here. Building our own wooden skateparks and going on citytrips with friends, best memories. And the friendship is still there after 30 years.
Thank you so much for this! Amazing video. I've been trying to figure out the DC's I had in 96/97 and I spotted the Moses Itkonen DC ad and it all came rushing back! I gotta say though, from my experience at least, we were still super heavily into the baggy pants in 1997-2000.
I worked in a skate shop over here in Germany in the late 80s until the mid 90s. Access to videos was limited to the ones available from the two large German distributors. I would say the biggest impact video-wise was the H-Street Hokus Pokus video, because it focused heavily on street skating plus it had for its time the gnarliest tricks.
Long live the Rocco Empire! The 90s were certainly the times to be alive. World, Hook-Ups among others were at their primes. I would've loved to have gone pro for either World or New Deal. I couldn't help but notice some mistakes, that Mike V deck was called the 'Barnyard' deck and Blind released 'Video Days' in 1991.
In Gonz's TWS 30th Ann'y issue, he named it Blind because it was a line in a Talking Heads song he kept singing. Rocco told him to call it Square One. In the same interview though, he also thinks Gator isnt guilty. Bummer you didnt mention Shorty's/Muska or Flip/Tom Penny dominance.
@@ShredzShop IDK what your return on investment is when you do the episodes and that matters but what also matters is how good(!!) the episodes are that you produce!! I would support your shop more but unfortunately I live in the U.S. 🇨🇦❤️🛹🔥
Honorable mention for iconic spots in the 90s. Love Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It put the east cost on the map when a lot of footage is released in 411VM thanks to Dan Wolfe. Plus, the number of videos it was in was unmatched.
My favorite memory from the 90s was losing my… But yea the skating was great too. Proud to have been brought up in it and seeing it continuing to influence today’s generation.
I was a big fan of Element and Zero in the late 90s. In the early 90s I was into Powell, Santa Cruz and H-Street. I had a lot of Powell stuff because they were only an hour and 1/2 away. We'd all skate their indoor park "Skatezone". We were the groms skating with lots of rippers. You'd see pros there all the time. It was arguably the best park at the time. They had a store and where they were always having killer sales. So much cheaper than say CCS or other local shops. They would even sell one of a kind tees where they would test the silk screening, so you have tons of logos all over the tee. I'm pretty sure that's the only place you could buy those.
Growing up in SoCal in the mid to late 90s Shorty's was the coolest company ever. Everyone wanted their gear. Favorite skater was Willie Santos for sure, he was ahead of his time.
It wasn’t my favorite but FUCT was a great company. I loved all their parody graphics. My favorite 90’s skaters were Rick Howard, Mike Carrol, Keith Hufnagel, Chico Brenes, Rick McCrank, Jim Theibault, Ed Templeton. Man there’s so many. A great time to skate, lots of static in the air when we would skate late at night in the Loop business district in Chicago. Loads of fun at all those spots back in the day, shoot…
Such a good vid !! I feel like they missed the part where skating wasn’t popular on the 90s and a bunch of companies went out of business and Tony Hawk had to get a second job
I stopped skating the first time around in the 90s. I grew up a (lame) vert skater but my YMCA tore down their halfpipe in the mid 90s. It was really the only spot around and you had to pay to use it anyhow. I never got into street and couldn't stand narrow popsicles so I hung it up. Fast forward to now and I'm an old head rocking a niner and can drive to any number of public parks with small bowls and miniramps to scoot around on.
August 2000 I broke my ankle and had to have a plate and 10 screws put in. I lived in a townhouse and it was a pain to go up and down the stairs, so I had my roommate and my little brother being my mattress down to the living room where I slept for the next month. They got so tired of changing out the VHS for me that they made me a 12 hour long 411 VM tape. They would just put it in, set it, and forget it 😂
@@MorgEllon-ye9pi trust me, it’s all good. Yeah, it was actually my best friend’s little brother and my little brother who lived with me. Me and my best friend met the first day of 4th grade and our little brothers met on that same day in their kindergarten class. We’ve all been friends since like 1988 or 89. I can’t remember how old you are in 4th grade 😂
My favourite memory from the 90s was having this big ass old school board I would practice ollies on off my back porch until I bailed pretty hard a week before a Taekwondo tournament I was suppose compete in. I never ollied that thing again since.
Vision street wear was huge early 90s.. think they may have had one of the first chunky shoes as well, the high cut ones, nachi bearings, sketchy and Stussy baggy ass pants, rector pads, pro-tec helmets, gullwings, cool shapes and graphics, Santa Cruz, Powell, and Alva decks, SMP, Big Day Out, Xgames...gathering plywood from where-ever it layed, being too scared to rewind your fav video part and replay a trick in case the VHS got eaten, trackers sliding axles and spinning kingpins . the 90s was kick ass. I was 14 in 1990 in Sydney.
Indoor skateparks at the mall, I remember my mom telling me that was for rich people. Those Vans fences with everyone entering with a skateboard and helmets looked like the equivalence of helping Optimus Prime save the world. Something about seeing that growing up, I knew I’d be in four wheels before I’m on four wheels sitting down lol
Damn, Sheep shoes...man i miss those, Duffs, and Dukes. Smaller shoe companies were alway my favorite. I remember the Dukes Jeremy Wray pro models came out, i was 8 almost 9 and got them for my bday. Cream colored. Such sick shoes
As a 41 year old skater, it would be cool if you start at the beginning. You could probably fit the first 3 decades into one, then 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s, now.
We didn't play one doing more than one, but the 90s one was popular and its our fav decade of skateboarding! I feel like we could have broken the 90s into multiple episode, feels like we just scratched the surface!
What's your favorite brand from the 90s ?! Also, who's your favorite 90s skater?
The Chief. Toy machine --> ZERO. Welcome to Hell and Thrill of It All were my favourite movies all around. And Forest Gump. ☺️
I love Adio, they have nice pro´s and shoes models
I miss Adio shoes. And definitely Rodney Mullen
First real deck was a Ronnie Creager Blind
Birdhouse

I agree, such a great decade and I’m glad that I grew up in that decade.
Love see a 2000s I started in 2002 so many board companies love to come back like rasa Libre and popwar
Born in 1990 as well. Feels grateful of growing up in the golden era
That was pretty much like my late 90's- early 2000's in the UK.
All sk8ers mostly knew everybody, we had 2 skate shops owned and run by sponsored sk8ers.
Great energy and vibes. 🙂
smaller towns are wayyy better for skating now
The 90s were such a pivotal decade for skateboarding and pop culture in general

Sheep sponsorship is epic!! That’s sick dude! I love when etnies does little sheep re-issues.
Finally someone gets it right with Vision's Double Vision deck being the first street skateboard.
the first with a double tail but not the first marketed as a street deck. I have a Blockhead deck from 85 called the Streetstyle but it's just a smaller version of their other decks basically. Either way, you guys are correct.
@@finnmcginn9931haha a blockhead deck... nobody's mentioned that company in min.. gd looks lol
What? You mean Andy Anderson didn't invent that lol.

Good video though.
Ps my favourite skater was heath kirchart !!
I turned 12 in 1990, such a fun and sometimes crazy decade to grow up in
👏 This was really great Levi 💯🔥💯
This is great. I'd love to see a video like this for every decade. Best channel for skateboarding history.
Loved loved loved this decade video… the 90’s were superb, I loved small wheels era, it’s was so much fun.
💥🙏 glad you enjoyed the stroll down memory lane!
You guys did a great job with this video. So much to unpack. Everything changed so fast every couple of years.
Man this ruled. It feels like yesterday.
Airwalk 1 is a the best skate shoes for me❤I was wear DVS and DC , Circa but Airwalk is my favourite for all the time😊
Airwalk NTS and Airwalk Beyond
i started skating in 96', so this hits home; my early years were some of the best!
These days inspired me! I started skating in 2007 n loved it since !
My favorite part about growing up skating in the 90's was the fun and interesting board graphics, CCS catalogs, and watching skate videos like Fullfill The Dream and Osiris The Storm with your friends before you went skating.
Rewinding those VHS tapes 😅
Cheers guys.
Much Love from England
👊
Miss the 90s and skating as a kid with no rules and definitely no responsibilities haha. Love the videos you guys create!
It was an amazing time in skating for sure! 💞
Another great video guys and yes I want a video review for each decade keep up the good work
Stoked you enjoyed!!

Thanks for that stroll down memory lane! You guys rock!
Glad you enjoyed!! Was a fun video to make!
So glad I was a young teen and all about surf, skate, snow 24/7! The best eras for all of the board sports for sure!

Started skating in summer of 1994. Great times.
Thank you Skateboarding ❤
The best!
I'm just glad the 90's vibe is back overall.
Finally the chance to relive the decade I was born in.
Great video ! Mid 80’s to mid 90’s was the best period in skateboarding.
Glad you enjoyed! 👊
Review the 2000´s, nice video fam
fantastic video, thank you!!!! please do 2000's
Have you guys done a video about "Sk8"? The NBC TV series from the early 2000s?
We haven't, I'll have to check it out tho!
I worked in a skate shop over here in Germany in the late 80s until the mid 90s. Access to videos was limited to the ones available from the two large German distributors. I would say the biggest impact video-wise was the H-Street Hokus Pokus video, because it focused heavily on street skating plus it had for its time the gnarliest tricks.
Long live the Rocco Empire!

I couldn't help but notice some mistakes, that Mike V deck was called the 'Barnyard' deck and Blind released 'Video Days' in 1991.
Jason Lee was an icon. It’s a shame he cut his career so short. On a side note…you folks need to do a video on Strangelove!
Love strange love, that would definitely be a rad idea! We get the boards whenever they drop new stuff!
In Gonz's TWS 30th Ann'y issue, he named it Blind because it was a line in a Talking Heads song he kept singing. Rocco told him to call it Square One. In the same interview though, he also thinks Gator isnt guilty. Bummer you didnt mention Shorty's/Muska or Flip/Tom Penny dominance.
I always learn something from these videos.

Bro I was so lucky to grow up skating and really living in this Era it's Def a ti.e gone by that like the 60s n 70 u just had to be there
I enjoyed the 2000’s good music and clean fashion. Oh! And Guy Mariano come back skater of the year; the Laki video. 👍
Girl/Chocolate and Zero are my 90s favorite brand. Chico Brenes is my favorite 90s skater.

yesss please make the 2000's video!
4:08 worth noting; because they were smaller, Real Small Wheels came in a 6-pack, so if you bought two packs you had 3 sets of wheels
Solid addition!
Absolutely do the 2000s!
Great video
Stoked you enjoyed! 💥👊

Yes ! We want more ! Let's go 2000 😁
Fantastic! 👏

Great video, thanks for highlighting the decade that made me who Iam today🤘🤘
Glad you enjoyed! It was a fun walk down memory lane!
Started in 92 (like really started)….and I get worse each year. Still love it….even thought it hates me more each year.
God I loved skating in the 90’s. It just had such an awesome vibe. “Cookie Head” Jenkins was dope.
yes absolutely do the 2000s that is my all time favorite decade!!
Definitely do a 2000 review
love your content.Antithesis would be a cool brand very mid 2020s

Awesome thanks

Favorite 90's brand was scarecrow. That misfits deck was what's up. I had 3 of em back to back.
Scarecrow was great! They're gone now hey?
@@ShredzShopYeah, I think the main guy had gone to Black Label and is now doing something for CCS last I looked into it. Definitely miss that brand.
Definitely have to do 2000s
Vision street wear was huge early 90s.. think they may have had one of the first chunky shoes as well, the high cut ones, nachi bearings, sketchy and Stussy baggy ass pants, rector pads, pro-tec helmets, gullwings, cool shapes and graphics, Santa Cruz, Powell, and Alva decks, SMP, Big Day Out, Xgames...gathering plywood from where-ever it layed, being too scared to rewind your fav video part and replay a trick in case the VHS got eaten, trackers sliding axles and spinning kingpins . the 90s was kick ass.

World Industries had a grip on my childhood. I loved the graphics, often doodled them while bored in class
Every kids binder in my middle school had skate logos drawn on it…
The pros and skaters used to dictate what skateboarding was, now both tow the corporate line!
A video showcasing Canadian skaters would be cool! Let’s show off our countrymen!
Yes please do 2000s because that is when I skated.
Shorty’s Fulfill the Dream changed my life. How are we not talking about that video?!
I started in 98 such a good time in skating around that time 😢
1995) my First Board was a world Industries Hellraiser,with Gullwing Shadow 2 Trucks,and Speed Demon wheels ❤ thanks joki/RIP
0:42 where the hell did you find this? 😀
what band is this?
Indoor skateparks at the mall, I remember my mom telling me that was for rich people. Those Vans fences with everyone entering with a skateboard and helmets looked like the equivalence of helping Optimus Prime save the world.

Definitely do the 2000's that'd be epic
0:42 “I still believe!!!” 🎷 🎷
Girl, Venture, Eś, Koston. Still ride Girl boards and rock Eś to this day. Switched the trucks to Royal.
0:04 wolfenstein 3d?
Damn, Sheep shoes...man i miss those, Duffs, and Dukes. Smaller shoe companies were alway my favorite. I remember the Dukes Jeremy Wray pro models came out, i was 8 almost 9 and got them for my bday. Cream colored. Such sick shoes
Ohhhh yessss, the good ole days😊 i rember when all of those ads and video clips happened. Hope that dont age myself
Should make 00's and 10's next
man, I never left the 90s. I still rock the baggiest skinny jeans I can get and the fatest Etnies I can find ;) Favorite 90s brand: ACME
Dam im old just turned 34 yesterday the 90s and 2000s where a great time

@@ShredzShop can't argue with that! The 90s were my intro, I don't think anyone would be upset about highlighting more of that era.
Gator had actually been off Vision for awhile when he turned himself in, his last sponsor was a company called Fishlips.
Airwalk was legit good back in the 90's both skate and snow
It was amazing!
