Heath Kirchart Talks Video Parts

- Back in 2016 I had the pleasure of going to Korea with Leo Romero to help film his PUSH part for The Berrics. Unfortunately, that part never came out so I’ve been sitting on some cool footage for a while now. I mostly interviewed Heath about Leo but we also talked about video parts in general.

Heath's Sight Unseen part is probably my favorite video part of all time.
That back noseblunt...
🎶Night is white satin🎶
It's crazy to hear how much he detached himself from the culture... I looked up to guys like him growing up and in that era we never got to really hear the skaters voice, we'd catch a puff piece in a skate mag once in a while but it was rare if anyone ever asked a serious or meaningful question, so every time a new Heath video pops up it's like finding a rare gem. Thanks for tracking him down and putting this little piece together!
I hope one day the nine club gets him on.
Mason McConnell fr that will be such a good interview
His epicly latered is really damn good if you haven’t seen it.
I think the point he's making is that he didn't detach himself from the culture. The culture of skateboarding that he loved, and that I loved, it totally dead. Skate parts and videos are all free to watch now, and you don't have to wait long periods of time to get more content, so it kind of loses its value. On the other hand, there is some super amazing stuff being done today, if he would just watch some of it he would definitely be amazed.
Nicely said. I remember reading a Top 5 list in a Thrasher Jerry Hsu interview. Number one was 'Tight, hairy pussy'. I was a conservative Catholic kid at the time but couldn't stop laughing. Miss flicking through those pages.
His videoparts were always top notch. From the trick selection,his style,his clothes,the music,the companies he rode for. It was all top notch. His parts had a certain type of vibe.
Kind of encapsulated the alternative and grunge culture of the 90s for me
Please give us a nine club episode.
Revive is on a whole nother planet lulz I dnt see them making an honest video , revive is amazing but Heaths brain would explode in cringe
@@crisXblue12 what does revive have to do with anything
@@idontwantone132 nine club is like andy anderson trash now
Idk why but Heath's parts always struck a chord emotionally. Music and night skating. And when i skated i was trying to be Heath too. Now its like a sad nostalgia looking back.. life didnt go as planned. Wish i could still skate
Agree 100%.. well said
You aren’t the only one
Heath is my absolute favorite skateboarder who has ever walked this earth! The way he sees and executed his vision on skateboarding has always awed me. Thank you for posting this!!
i always will love the way heath kickfliped
The legend. I kinda stopped watching skate vids after Mind Field
you missed a lot of amazing thing
So you haven't seen fully flared? That's bullshit.
@@Dontbustthecrust It is bullshit. Fully Flared came out 2 years before Mind Field
@@MrBluntNose oh weird it did! My mistake.
@rocket gruntlike I give a fuck what you think of me. 😂🖕
Hit the nail on the head. Most parts nowadays are forgot about after a week. I rather watch a well put together part then a part that took a couple months to film.
For real! This is why I love Heath's parts- so well put together and memorable.
most parts. not all. i mean.. suciu's verso part.... that part is a fucking piece of art.
Heck yeah! Heath has a unique style. Got hooked on his part in The End, him and Klein had the best part!! And This Is Skateboarding, he had the intro part and still blows my kind after all these years. Him, Klein, Thomas, Muska, Reynolds, are legends...too many to name. Wish I could meet this guy and get my copy of The End signed
The film stock looks great, and the editing is reminding me of great cinema.
heath kirchart + this is skateboarding = best part ever
The great Heath Kirchart. Thanks for the inspiration in the 90s and 20s.
Nice work! Hope Heath is into doing a Nine Club interview at some point.
"Is he gonna do it again?"
"He will."
lol when Kirchart tells you you're gonna do it again. You do it.
Times have changedbig Time I am with you heath ur a legend !
Favorite skater ever! Cool to see him even just riding around.
Awesome video!!! nice to see guys from back in the day
My favorite skater of all time. I always had a heath kirchart birhouse deck and then went to alien workshop. Lol i remember when birdhouse the end came out and CCS had heath kirchart on the cover skating the blockbuster sign.
Nights in white satin. Under pressure. Archers of loaf. Heath had some great songs.
Seriously one of the goats to hear him talk I grew up watching this guy skating I started skating in the summer of 96 and I still skate to this day. and to hear how he detached from the culture today. things today withsocial media and everything is so much easier for skaters not saying that they don't put in hard work and time and dedication because they're dope. But how he said that back then OMG! Skateboarding the skaters back in the 90s and early 2000s made a career off just a video part back in the day and he's not lying I've seen so many skate videos back in the days straight Nostalgia is like going back and looking at old videos it just brings a Warmness to my heart because I understand where he's coming from this is one of the best interviews I've ever seen of him.
So dope.
This is sick!!! This is rad in the aspect and insight. Thanks!
Oh ish defo I forgot .. ..mad love Heath Kirchart! Im still watching your clips figuring how to skate handrails. Also in the end the van scene🤙
Heath is such a beautiful human its crazy he isnt a famous director or documentarian or musician something. Thanks for this.
Heath is a very down to earth dude ...
I ran into him once when I was a kid. My buddy and I were skating this underground parking garage in Del Mar. He drove in with Ronnie Creagar. After they skated around with us for a bit , they popped the trunk of their car and gave us two blank decks. What an impact that left on us ... Six years later , while hanging out at Brian Young’s house , Heath shows up. He was still the same humble dude ..
thanks heath, i grew up around one of your friends, kynan, man im like 22 years in, and just recovering from some knee whatever. its nice to see this. I really grew up around humble dudes like you, and man, skating is just an obsession, do other shit, its freeing. Lots of dudes need this.
Hook ups was one of his best videos, I likes his Sight Unseen section as well when we had it all on videos with the cardboard box sleeve lol
"Skaters built their career off of their video parts...competitions didn't really matter."...paraphrasing what he said but THIS is why skating isn't what it was when I was growing up. Nowadays there are damn training facilities that dude's practice at non-stop before an SLS comp...they have SLS training facilities built at their HOMES lol. I remember when Dyrdek started building the skate plazas and we were all hyped...then he announced that he would be bringing in SLS and we all HATED IT because we already had the X Games and Tampa Pro/Am...we knew that SLS would turn skating into a different kind of thing, something that it wasn't meant to be. Everytime I see a skater wearing a Monster/Redbull hat it make's me cringe...big corporations like that stomping out the little skater owned companies make's me sick. Nike, Converse, Adidas, New Balance...I own a pair of O'Neil SB's just because I'll support Shane but alot of these companies KILLED the SKATER OWNED companies. Watching some of these skaters these day's they look like they are a walking billboard like Nascar jumpsuits. This is why I stick to brands like Baker, Emerica, Bones, and Venture...brands I grew up skating.
.......ok gate keeper douche.
Foundation rolling thunder is still my favorite skate video of all time.
One of the greatest
Heath is my top 3 all time. Heath, Reynolds, and Jamie Thomas.
Heath was special though because he skated 100 miles an hour and went big.
fucking luv heath. always have. always will. his video parts still get me so juiced
This is really well done you should make more of these. Could probably turn this into a show for VICE.
Epicly laterd you could call it
@@FreshwaterFloof lol exactly. More of those.
Heath is the reason I start skateboarding.....all time fav skater...even my friends called me kirchart.....although I don't skate like him...
This was sick, I always let the homie pick their music though. ❤️👑
Kerry Getz is the only double flipper allowed .
Leapold Stotch and we give a pass to kirchart double flip in mindfield
What about dawon!?No
Billy marks.
Justin Henry
Mike Carroll
I happy he said Pat Duffy's part in Questionable
Sick man, this is excellent.
Thanks for sharing this. Pretty amazing work and so honest. I've been revisiting skating lately. Thanks, Grant.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I agree with pretty much everything he says. Been filming for a video for the last few years and had always planned to do 2 versions of the video; one with skaters choice for song, and another where I (the filmer/editor) choose the songs (this one would be like an alternate edit). Doing this because 1/2 the people want to pick their song, and the other 1/2 don’t. But felt it was a good “meet in the middle” type deal
Legend. All time favorite. Always felt that Heath isn't down with any bullshit . Think him and cardiel got me the most pumped to destroy
Im here right after watching the BeagleTapes of him filming Beagle. Here it shows him holding an HD camera, and Im likee "i hope they know what theyre in for!" LOL
Always used to say that Kirchart was cursed with the ability to skate. The guy was like an enigma!
hlHe almost drowned off Southern California in a tiny boat.
I can’t believe he did this interview.
Most underrated skater
MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Soft spoken legend
Heath prolly got sick of all the kooks and the debauchery....after awhile you get burnt out on all the madness
More Heath plz
Always reminded me a lot of Pat Duffy.
Sight unseen
What did you give him to make him say that many words in a row?
Thor let me have a mixtape of all these skate vids on vhs when I was a kid in 96, one of them was tentacles of destruction I watched that video so many times was my favorite on the tape, there was also a scsvm Santa Cruz video kinda makin fun of 411 and a think video with Phil shao and wade speyer and it was in black and white and they were shooting guns at a firing range. healths part in tentacles was my favorite tho with Josh beagle the song rules too winners blues by sonic youth
Did he say varial flip ?
Fucking legend
the paul rudd of skate goating!
Savage
Heath Is the Paul Rudd of skateboarding 🛹
What happened to those PUSH parts?
Budget issues
That sucks, really bummed the other parts never came out, hope the tooth does someday.
@@GrantSchubertVideo That sucks. Of all the guys that season Leo's was the part I was looking forward to the most.
nine club episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only guy who ever made a double flip look good with Kerry Getz
1:11 leo remero
Sounds a bit like Edward Norton. Looks like him a bit too.
This isn't the nine club.
Whats he do nowadays ?
He co-owns and runs Black bar in Hollywood and Long Beach
1:01 "That would be an ass shot!"
3:31 *shoots an ass shot*
heath: people hate double flips...
billy marks : huh?
Dinger Magna billy marks is so gross. maybe the worst style ever. if you want a good double flip, see Kerry getz in mosaic or even heath himself in mind field.
Being a pro skater didn’t require that you be addicted to your phone. Pros make more money for Instagram than their actual sponsors now. They’re unpaid employees for Silicon Valley.
That wasn't long enough
Great skater
Just seems like he dislikes were skating has gone ? Highly doubt he will ever be on nine club . Doesn’t even look excited for this interview didn’t even look excited when the homie said thanks for filming .
That's just his personality
Double flips are cool in my book. Triple...meh.
fake
Errrr.... No. Even the great B.A. can not make a varial flip look good. It just be's that way.
@rocket grunt Half of that is correct. I did suck at them. But I'm awesome at knowing what looks good when someone else is doing it.
I disagree
@@thomasrainbow And that's okay. There are plenty of flippety variations to be a fan of or not. That's just one of the many reasons skating is way better than, say... baseball.
Okay. Okay. Hold the fuck up... I can't believe after 30 plus years in this shit I just witnessed the first (maybe second) varial flip that wasn't doo doo. Gianni Vianna does one in the Primitive video off a ledge and over a railing that looks pretty dope. Wow. I'm stunned. It almost looks like an inward heelflip but I think that's the frame rate fritzing out. Shit is bangin' either way.
I stand corrected. But that's two out of thousands I have seen.
Kevin Romar has the best varial flip frfr
LEGEND
If we was a teen during 2015 he would have been a millionaire from social media/shorts/etc.
