    I watched the whole video and thought it was only 5 minutes long until he said "it's hard to talk for 35 minutes straight." Being so enthralled that you lose track of time is how you know it's good content.

    The best video part to understand why Wade Speyer is one of a kind is Think's "Need for Speed". In 1993, in the swamp of the small wheels era, Wade was skating all kind of terrain with speed, pop and technicity. Really ahead of his time. There's a Thrasher "classic" about this part, and I can't recommend it enough.

    Well said sir; this was great.
    Well edited footage is probably the best means of creating the illusion that difficult things are easy. There are few who are able to make them look effortless; can’t think of a better example than these guys skating in their prime with maximum panache. It’s a beautiful thing.

    Wasn’t expecting to see Brent here. There are a few skaters who just made things look better than anyone could have even imagined. Brent is/was one of them. To skate a wall with 3 feet of vert and 9 feet of transition with the same relaxation he shows pushing down the street is unreal. In the early to late 2000s if he showed up any day at any park in Oregon you could just about guarantee that old hesh heads and young fresh/ hip hop style kids alike were going to go home with a different shaped brain than the one they had that morning.
