Damn.... This is such an awesome thing to be able to watch these. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put ALL these videos together. Puleo,Pappalardo..Forget about it. Brilliant.
God those old made in the USA PS Stix Habitat/Alien decks were THE best!!! Wenning is a fucking legend and the reason I still do back nosegrind pop outs every time I skate. I hope he drops some new footage soon!
uys this man right here was just an amazing skateboarder,how i miss him from skateboardscene he was like vanish dont know why, congrats brian you still the skill
+djmon1987 From my understanding People weren't spending as much money and international sales tanked. I guess other countries just werent buying american brands anymore.
This will sound weird but for some reason I've never put Wenning in my top 10 favorite skaters yet his skating was some of the most influential to me looking back. I love skating fun boxes/ledges more than anything and it's probably because of watching Wennings part in the DC video. Dude was so sick.
He said people in Cali didn't know switch push... for fucks sake, I had that going back in the early 90s I believe. If I can remember right. I think it was a kick flip then did a switch push off to switch manual on a planter to drop. His parts always bring back memories that got me back into it early 2000s, though. Good shit.
He didn’t surround himself with the right friends and other people. His brother was big into partying at the time too and no doubt was an enabler. Both are in prison now.
I really want to know what the new skaters think about these guys. Anybody that started skating after 2000, are these guys inspirations? Still sick? or just phased out?
+slouch potatoe I doubt it too. That golden era of the late 90s early 00s is just one of a kind. Sadly, UA-cam and the internet destroyed video making for skating. Didn't the workshop collapse?
Well i started skating in 2000 and these were really all the videos we had. I always thought Wenning was a little overrated but i was a huge shortys head. After watching fulfill the dream so many times it was really hard to compare anything to that crew. To us Brian was always a stylish skater that was too lazy. Then hearing the Garcia Bobshirt interview it makes sense when he talks about Danny begging him for cash for pills.
Doesn't he never use condoms or something like that? With any broad he goes bag less. I forgot where I heard that from. I think it was Tim O' Connors old podcast thing. I'm probably wrong though.
Photosynthesis is an iconic video...🤘🏻👽🤘🏻
Brian's Photosynthesis part is one of the greatest video parts of all time
Especially for a rookie part like that’s his 1st part and his dc part is his 2nd major part 🤣🤣🔥
Hands down his best part! And in my top 5 all time.
Philadelphia/New York/Jersey skateboarding was something to see in the 90s. Eaton roller rink.
Looks like a young Tony Soprano. Wenning is one the greatest to ever step on a board. Good stuff right here.
“There’s no 401K for skateboarding.” Truer words have never been spoken.
Damn.... This is such an awesome thing to be able to watch these. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put ALL these videos together. Puleo,Pappalardo..Forget about it. Brilliant.
That switch tre in his "best line ever" is still my favorite one of all time.
Spenser facts
I honestly think its the best one ever done
God those old made in the USA PS Stix Habitat/Alien decks were THE best!!! Wenning is a fucking legend and the reason I still do back nosegrind pop outs every time I skate. I hope he drops some new footage soon!
It's incredible how these old decks are tracked down in immaculate condition. Awesome. Do a Kirchart video.
i was always stoked off his skate parts. so smooth and tech. loved it
Keep these interviews coming! Love them all.
i love how even though wenning and papps have their little beef they still respect each others talent...
I didn't want this to end. Fuck yeah. The song at the end, too good
Dibby Axe - Five Deez
Fabian Gracia Mr Dibbs - Bam Boo
I really love that you're doing this. you've awoken so many old memories of my childhood. thank you, please keep doing these.
Loved this interview and seeing all his old boards!
These are the best. Big thanks for making these.
His style stood out soo much for me. Definitely one of the smoothest ever
Damn, great job on this man! This dude was one of my favorite skaters growing up.
one of my favorites growing up. lynx were great.
If you're an old dude like me, this is manna from heaven.
+Jonas Polsky my heart..
Well put 🤟🔥
I straight up agree with Wenning, Guy Mariano's part in "Mouse" was legendary. Definitely the part I watched the most!
Excellent job! Keep these coming!
We all got something outta this Brian, best shit🔥💚
THIS WAS GREAT!!!
Bob you really killed it with these big up from Cincinnati
Thanks for putting this out. You made the world better
You should do a Tim one next. Sure he would be a good one.
With tim's commentary over the top.
muy buena entrevista ...grande wenning,. big up from chile!
All the interviews you guys do are great!
This is such a cool series...need to do Kerry Getz. I agree with Wenning, Photosynthesis was the best video.
I love watching this guy skate.
This was fucking great! I'm sure Brian's comment on Switch Mongo ruffled a few feathers. Like everyone else is saying, keep doing these!
uys this man right here was just an amazing skateboarder,how i miss him from skateboardscene he was like vanish dont know why, congrats brian you still the skill
One of the best to ever do it
i remember that cover. so good.
should've talked about the es schemes. He used to rock those before the lynx.
Favorite human ever , Brian wenning is the illest . That dude always talks real shit . Big ups
is this at asbury park?
honest and pure, perfect. and yes, danny renaud !
Kerry Getz mentioned the 9/11 thing in his Jenkem interview too. Why did the Twin Towers attacks affect board sales? I don't get it.

Anyone know where I can get his first pro deck from even used?
He said people in Cali didn't know switch push... for fucks sake, I had that going back in the early 90s I believe. If I can remember right. I think it was a kick flip then did a switch push off to switch manual on a planter to drop. His parts always bring back memories that got me back into it early 2000s, though. Good shit.
one of the best jn this game 🔥🙌🏾
How do they still have all these classic boards?
People collect decks. Its a huge hobby and people pay insane money for them.
How did the skate such small boards? I don’t get why anyone would want to skate a 7.56?
Sickkkkkkkk !!!!!!!
What I would give for the OG black and purple DCs.
The legend
Wenning is a legend
For The Culture. "For The Culture".
What a fuckin great interview!
so good
Awesome Interview. Wenning is a fukin ledge end!!!!
This is like a history lesson about the economy!
Yeah Brian
I love Skateboarding.
*one of the greatest end of the story*
You should do a josh kalis interview
Sucks it turned out like it did for him but it seems like the party life got to him
He didn’t surround himself with the right friends and other people. His brother was big into partying at the time too and no doubt was an enabler. Both are in prison now.
dope !
I really want to know what the new skaters think about these guys. Anybody that started skating after 2000, are these guys inspirations? Still sick? or just phased out?
+slouch potatoe Samr here. Started skating in 04 and remember watching BWs part in the DC video religiously. That and mosaic is ingrained in my mind
+slouch potatoe I doubt it too. That golden era of the late 90s early 00s is just one of a kind. Sadly, UA-cam and the internet destroyed video making for skating. Didn't the workshop collapse?
+slouch potatoe Im gonna have to check it out for sure then.

Kanye Twitty personally him and pj are huge inspirations. found out about them right when I started skating in '08
he looks so sad for some reason lol the best switch style tho ever
Local legend
he said there was only 3 in the box when he got home in a later interveiw....let it slide
tim o connor for sure would be epic.
LEGENDARY BW
Love Park.
Jersey!
The spit after mentioning 9/11 was fuckin hard
Eatontown, word up.
why did 9/11 affect board sales?
People stop spending money when they are nervous about the future. 9/11 had everyone paranoid for a good 5 years.
u werent just a ledge skater man u fucking switch back 180'ed love! and switch heeled macba 4 etc.
bagdad lifeeeeeee
style for miles
bobshirt like skateboarding nardwuar
dope
Doesn't he never use condoms or something like that? With any broad he goes bag less. I forgot where I heard that from. I think it was Tim O' Connors old podcast thing. I'm probably wrong though.
Nah he wears condoms why he skates
He should've called thevboard company "on lock" skateboards not "lockdown" if he was trying to refer to when u got skate tricks down every try.
This was cool! He looks like not much of an little asshole that i think he use to be a bit back in the day... to judging from older interviews!
Be real Wenning, Philly just has better heroin.
he looks so sad for some reason lol the best switch style tho ever
Probably not getting the checks he used too!
