Jim Greco: Tales From The Warner Ave Crew
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 гру 2021
- The Warner Ave Crew digs deep and tells some great stories about Jim while living in HB. From first picking him up from the airport after flying in from the east coast, to the last party, nothing but good times. Ali recalls how they first started wearing tight pants. Jim did not want to talk about the old party days but rather focus on his new path. Much respect to Jim. Enjoy. Filming by: Steve Haring, Richie LaRuffa, intro graphics: Matt Haring, photography: Ed Templeton.
This series needs to be crowdfunded into a full length feature documentary film.
I agree 100 percent. How do we make this happen?
Yes!!
If anything,one should be done on Penny. A legit documentary
plz
I would love to see Jim in THE NINE CLUB
Lol he would be unlike any guest they ever had. That would be great
@@TheDailyWipeout definitely what makes a good human. How Drunk they are. Ask Ali about it he’ll tell you he’s happy he did what he did. Probably begging to go back and keep the baggies
@@ronniecreager2585 he isn't allowed in the states anymore right? I vaguely know about that situation.
@@Dthesun He was already deported from the U.S. for underage drinking in public, which is why his part in "Sorry" is all in Europe. The accident with Shane Cross was in Australia and he was deported from there as well.
Need Greco and Kirchart on The Nine Club ASAP!
I blame Jim and Ali for me dressing so wild as a kid lmao. I saw them and thought welp they look different and that’s hype.
Hey did Ali also got into heroin with Jim?? I know Greco really deep into it. Thank God he got out
Bro I am starting to dress punk and started to listen more of the Sex Pistols,the Ramones,the Rolling Stones, and The Who
@@nvm9040did that when I was like 15. Makes you feel 15 lmao. Being almost 30 feels like you're playing dress up
@@P3t_s0unds lol I bet
I'm not a pro but I'll take credit for that two. High school age and in my prime of skating at that time
He was obsessed with rocking a side pipe 🤣
Jim Grecos style is Untouchable. He always looks cool on a Skateboard. Also the fact that he was such a piss drunk before but is now totally sober is awesome. Dude is tough.
Damn Greco almost switch backside flipped Bricktown! Never seen him even try that trick before.
💥🎶”FIX ME, fix my head! Fix me, please, I don’t wanna be dead!! FIX IT!!!”🎶🔥
Rockin' the side pipe.
Ironic how Greco revered THE FLICK but he had so many MOBBED flips himself !! hahahahaha
Yea he got the most mob flick I've ever seen and he's one of my favorites ever lmfao.
I'm sure he is well aware of his mob flip. That's why he was talking about it
Not everyone has blessed flick like Penny and Reynolds
That's how it usually goes.
Greco, I’m a fan of that man forever. Met him at a Supra demo at a shoe store in San Jose with the rest of the team. Ellington was hard flipping the stairs out front, felt so insane to see in person
fingers crossed we get to see jim go on the nine club for a full interview.
Jim is a legend hands down one of the best
Wow I thought I'd seen all Greco's old footage and yet this whole video has tons of clips I've never seen
the coolest part of this all is I'm 29 now and I currently work on Warner and Goldenwest here in HB. across the street from Murdy Skatepark and 1 street over from Edwards where the Warner apartment was. crazy to know the skateboarding I grew up on was originated right here. Actually found a pair of OG reynolds in near perfect condition at the Salvation Army right here. A lot of history in this general area of HB
did beagle name his dog after the skatepark?
@@big3ye378wow he must’ve
Yeahhhhh we need more these aren’t long enough
great work! Greco is a legend
Refreshing to see Tony Dasilva. I loved how kind and awesome you and your mother were to us little skate rats.
We loved Wallingford. Thank You for the memories.
Remember Jim then, there, at the Playground,i during the early 90's. He was rad then as he is now.
Make a Playground documentary!
I remember
Love this series 👍👍🍻
My old Roomate Mike lived in that apartment on Warner ave for a few years a few years back, All homies from the east coast who mobbed out here total skate house with kids flying in sleeping on the ground anywhere in house getting drunk the legend continued
Please keep these coming
Biggest inspiration to me in my life. Thank you 🙏🏾 🤘🏾
Haha ouch
@@ronniecreager2585 yessir. Thee Ronnie Creager? Was a huge fan.
The one I was waiting for
My lady’s home girl dated Greco back in like 2014/15 for a few months. I, being an old skate rat & fanboy was trying to meet him but it never worked out bc both Greco and this girl were a bit chaotic and couldn’t commit lol. His part in Baker 3 is in my top 5 favorite parts from any skate video. The whole aesthetic and attitude he brought to skating was something I always tried to emulate when I still skated regularly. This is one of my favorite series on UA-cam hands down.
I know a girl who dated him back in the day and the stories I've heard are CRAZY
@@YoungNino2017 this was when he was heavy into smack???
@@fungus_am0nguz644 yep, and some other stuff
@@YoungNino2017 what other stuff. You can tell us. The statue of limitations are way passed now lol
His Baker 2G part was better than 3 in my opinion.
Sumner sitting outside HB High is vibes. Seeing those dudes at that tin can of a park was the best.
Miss it! That bar was high though. Back lip to hang up.
Having been there and then, everything here is 100% accurate, and indeed Spawn does torture people to know them LOL ;-) (y)
I adore him!~ 🥀
We need parts 2 or needs to be longer.
LEGEND JIM GRECO 4EVER
Greco is a fucking LEGEND
Beagle explaining rocking the side pipe 🤣🤣🤣
8:38 Brian Summer looks like an Axolotl
So long as you don’t think they are cute. 👍🏻
Jim’s the best.
With the amount of times they were talking like he’s found the big pool in the sky I got worried hahaha. This fuckin ruled
Same
Where's the Schnapz at? Total respect now though! Jim ruling his own mind, no more House of Hammers, caining everything! Damn.
I fucking love Jim Greco
Someone get Templeton a double expresso asap.
7:34 Best part
GRECO!!!!!
Wow, Claus Dieter Spahn! That dude was a ripper back then. Him and Jan Waage.
I just tried to find Jan footage yesterday was like the euro Danny Way. 👍🏻❤️
@@briansumner6801 Ive seen Jan Waage live in his prime on the miniramp. Flawless runs. And Claus Dieter Spahn was mind blowing when he came up. Video footage is rare.
The many phases of Greco
Another great episode. Watching it with close captions is pretty funny: "tomato tour" instead of tum yeto tour, "hygiene" instead of hi jynx, etc. Haha.
Goat skate fan, Kulla.
probably all kinds of hygiene going down on the Tomato Tour i'd imagine
How can a dude from England drink bud ice lol
😂
He’s been in the states to long:/
"Rocking a side pipe" lmao
I really want to make a movie / documentary explaining to people who don’t know this story.
Everytime i wear a shirt in the skatepark and people ask me why this style ? i always give them the same answer in two words, Jim Greco.
Rockin a side pipe!
claus dita span and some more guys.. never forget that 411 issue.
6:32 el doraldo high i boardslided that one in the 90s

@@arusure Nope, lol
Rowley

Has him to thank for that
Ya he's looking like 70 ish in the body and hands
Omg he smokes outside the health food store to Piss off the healthy people woweewww he’s sooooo punk
The real Ronnie? You got beef Greco?
I learned a lot and also nothing.
411vm 3 kalus deta spam!
I never found the pissdrunx and punk stuff cool, yet soooooo many kids thought that getting shitfaced listening to the ramones was so raw
This was what ruined skating for me, seemed so fake. Turns out it ruined a lot of others lives too. Ended some as well. So many had to get sober after that era. Losers!
Getting shit faced listening to the Ramones is raw. 🍕🍺
@@ronniecreager2585 thank you for keeping it True and so dope still have a creager board🛹🙌🏾🙏🏽
@@ronniecreager2585 you aren't the real Ronnie creager tho lol
@@ronniecreager2585 im sure you’re doing great things shit talkin in these comments lmfao
last
not even first..
I bet when Jim and Ali look back at these times they just cry about how they ruined their lives for 'hijinxs'. Ali especially.
It's so weird to think Greco was hella cool at one point.
1st
The original art project. Thanks for stupid leather jackets pants and dress shoes. Fuckin terrible
And templeton confirms he’s also the creator of the get stupid drunk and do things like I’m 12 for attention. Led to so many great deaths and demises. Thanks again for more garbage jim!
Jim grecos genius math
1 bottle of jack plus 2 leather shoes equals one art masterpiece!
@@ronniecreager2585 lol big truth
@@ronniecreager2585 what great deaths are you talking about besides Shane cross??
I’ll never forget being a young teenager opening a thrasher mag and it was a supra ad with this clown dressed all glam metal, leopard skin tight jeans and hair sprayed long hair, god that was the worst era of skateboarding.
Sumner quit skating or something? Looking worse than me.
