    Until the Wheels Fall Off was a masterpiece for anyone who grew up watching Tony. It was beyond inspiring and the interviews were really excellent.
    Keep thrashing and get well soon!

    The last 4 are some of the best, but the docu-series, released as a DVD of "Drive" about Mike Vallely traveling the country and world was so amazing! If you haven't seen it, you should watch it while you heal. Get well soon, Eric!
    P.S. Rodney's autobiography would be a great basis for a documentary on him.

      Oh snap! I’ll check it out! Thanks for the recommendation, dude. And yeah, I agree. I’d love to learn everything possible about Mullen. I would love to see the behind the scenes of how he got connected to his TED talk and so much more. And thanks man! Hopefully I’ll be back on my board in a couple of months! In the meantime I’ve got a sweet book to read too! 😁

      Mannnn so I watched this one and the doc came off as super one sided. It was entertaining but when researching it, it sounded like the majority of the skate world had a different version of events than those told in All This Mayhem, so I left it out. Thanks for watching!

      That was a crazy doc. It pissed me off that they were doing clean 900s before Tony but bc of the politics they were pushed out. And then their stories ended so tragically, insanely tragic, which is probably why they didn’t want to include it

    You've got to check out, "Blood and Steel, Cedar Crest Country Club." Nick-named, "The Crest", it was a half-pipe mecca that drew in skaters from around the country. It featured some of the best vert skating of the 1980s. It was a favorite of the one and only Tony Hawk. Maybe I'm biased because I'm an 80s kid, myself. But I'd give it an....8 out of 10.

    I guess with Stoked - it could possibly appeal more if u grew up in the 80s - not to mention it's about a individuals demise which leads to unspeakable murder. Also the doc was made in the 90s and possibly failed to age into a timeless watch.

    • @EricJKuhns
      @EricJKuhns  Рік тому

      Oh man I think that’s it. It was really good but I think it was ruined because I watched a murder documentary about this case that wasn’t in the documentary in question, so I knew the story. Still a solid doc that def made it in my favorites!

    I liked the thps games for what they were but most real skaters wanted something more realistic. I played thps 1 over and but then i discovered an older game... thrasher on ps1 the trick setup was easy more realistic. It was difficult and you couldn't just grind forever. Then the skate series was the best but then skater xl changed the game with the best skate simulator ever. Being able to control each foot with their corresponding joystick was revolutionary. I haven't played session but I'm guessing it's similar. Now we just need a big studio to take that control system and make a full length game. Skater xl is awesome because it allows players to make their own parks for everyone to play. So every park you can think of is there. Every spot you've seen, someone has made it available. I love xl love love it.

    World sucked. They existed so noobs could get their first pro board. Anyone past the beginning stage bought better boards. And i know a lot of brands used the same distributors and only the graphics were the difference. Especially back then but still. Very few real skaters bought worlds boards. The graphics were cheeseball.
