I swear Jim Greco and Jeremy Klein dress like they stayed stuck in 1996 but in the coolest way lol. The thing I love about Greco and Klein is that its easy to grow old and give up on your passions because of the changing environment but these guys said fuck it, we don't care if young bucks are out there doing nollie backside noseblunts on 10 stair handrails, were gonna skate the way we know how, film it and have fun. I wish would bam margera join their crew since he's started sobering up and getting back into skating, keeping good company would do him a world of good.
Lightningfarron XP I actually saw a bloke about 21 years old dressed exactly like jim at the skatepark the other day. From the shoes to the ripped shirt.
there are plenty of people that are young and cannot do nollie back noseblunts on handrails, its not exactly a fantasy world, people are people, and there always has been different types of skaters, who can do aforementioned tricks, and those who do whatever else is left to do, and those who create their own thing, it doesn't seem necessary to compare shit to shit, when it's all good shit :) those who actually care about skateboarding for what it is will understand...
@Chris M yea I hear you,I’ve been in the same position. I used hard drugs for 12 years,been to prison,detox,rehab and I still couldn’t put the needle down. It always made me feel better,no matter what was going on in my head,I would try to moderate the drugs I had,spread them out for a few days,I would give and be dope sick the next day. I hit this rock fucking bottom low,which gave me the ability to try anything other than what I was doing. So I did it through doing a 12 step program,it’s Not for everyone,and it’s Not the only way. But shit bro,I’m fucking sober and have a pretty damn good life now.
Jim Greco is my favorite i think his skateboarding is the most stylish. just the way he looks...u can tell hes been doing it 4 a long time & learned from the OGs. Dustin, Ali & Jim
This really broke me. Beautifully haunting. Incredible skating. Beautiful human. So honest. Perhaps unlike being a Rockstar in a band, it's like skating can really be a lonely journey, I think that's truly rockstar. Sending love to Greco!
Much love to Jim Greco!! I can not express how this video makes me feel!! I admire him too much!! Such an amazing ispiration for the skaters that are still on drugs including me...
Mad respect!!! He was on some "B's" and was awesome, got clean and still rips!!! This guy is skate. Jim Greco doesn't Skateboard, Skateboard Jim Grecos!!!!!!!
Greco,B.A and barley are cts finest. I used to see greco with Tim upson at indoor park called cts in the early to mid 90s. Shit was epic to see as a young kid
I never noticed how similar Greco’s skating style is to Jeremy Klein’s; both regular and sort of sticking out their left/leading hand/arm out to guide them when going into a trick. So cool to see Klein featured in this, along with Ron Chatman. Rubbish Heap legends. Grecs knows what’s up. Great hearing Cocteau Twins, Boys Next Door and Bad Seeds jammers in there as well. Hammers and jammers.
for most people either you kick it or you die I myself tried "leaving las vegas" and literally looked at my little girl one day and knew it was quit or die 😊
people don’t take seriously what a porn addiction can do and the harm it can cause. However trying my hardest to be okay and be okay after i let it ruin my relationship, slating, especially jim’s gives me inspiration to get back on and put my all into it
I know all about addiction and found a solution in the rooms and got my Lucyford clean and sober skateshirt that’s whereI found your video. The owner is a beautiful friend of mine.
Amazing! I could give it a million of adjectives, but it's in vain. Dude this video is so deeply emotional and artistic, it makes me look at skateboarding in a different manner again. I love this guy!!!!!
I haven’t even started the video test but Jim Greco is an amazing person! We was a rock start and an artist in a skateboard! It seems the most creative struggle inside the most but fucking Jim Greco your the man!!! WILSHIRE RAIL KILLERS! 🎉🎉
Damn man. Can't remember when I saw a film with a better soundtrack. The Shangri-las, my all time fav girl group. No lover of great music should be without their complete collection. Check out the rarity "I'll never learn" by them. Their last and most elaborate recording. One of them died from heroin of in her teens whilst in the band with her twin sister. They got a rep as hard NY bitches after one got caught transporting a gun over state lines on tour which served them well as touring musician women back then got a lot of 'attention' from other male muso's. 'Sophisticated Boom Boom', 'Dressed in Black', ' Great Big Kiss'...so many classics. Big influence on NY Dolls.
Dude is raw.i saw him when he was at his rock bottom probably.Outside a video primiere in a van with a dude wearing only scarfs doing unspeakable things to each other.i hope he's doing better.that night honestly scarred me...
Scorsese would have used this exact soundtrack for the Irishman if Jim didn't happen upon the idea of the exact playlist first. It almost sounds true, Greco is a real talented bastard.
watching this movie gives me the sensation that JG could easily have become like anyone of these whacked out homeless people if he hadn't kicked hard drugs and or alcohol I think that too many skaters fall into the trap of much too much , much too young
I wish one day I will sk∞ like them! I also wish I will always have a job on the side so I do not have to worry about sk∞ing! just naturally do it and just push if I want to and tricks if I want to, not to ever have that stress of "I want this trick to look this way" or It needs to be done by this date" I started sk∞ing at the age of 5 years old, sk∞ed it for 15 years with no ACL, at the age of 28 finally got surgery, now at the age of 30 I still sk∞ every day and see that is better to sk∞ by my self at 3am in a parking garage than during a sunny day at the sk∞ park...
this guy's skating is sick. his style is good. if you want to direct a picture...even a short, have attention to detail. in the first sequence he had four different shirts on in one elevator ride. ultimately i was stoked by this little project. he's a rad skater and has some definite art skills. it just seemed kind of sloppy. maybe that was intentional. i have friends from CT. we all know he's a ripper. ultimately a good show.
As someone who has battled addiction, I have so much admiration and respect for this guy.
He lies
Take him seriously for everything he does the man is no joke
I just love the music they used thru out this whole film I really enjoy it
Skating to Cocteau Twins is always a win

Tom penny still has a 90s look but Jim’s an original dresser.

Drew Biggah bollox skatings bigger, faster and better than ever you fucking dick head

@@Grungebobsquarepantz lonely fucker
Jim Makes life an art form , thank you for your honesty. It is refreshing these days.
True.
His influence on baker 3 is so evident. This editing style is incredibly cool. Like this feels more like an adult Baker video than Baker 4 did.
Pretty sure DD half edited 3 and BHAD. (But I completely understand your reasoning) it's up to people like you and me to remember the PD imprint. 《||》
It's old-fashioned, but the colors are very fresh.It's very cool as a movie.
Jim makes art from life. creeping on 2 years sobriety myself, much love to Jim.
Gonzales
Hell yeah man this is sick. Im trying to get sober and this is inspirational, Its not easy every day is a battle.
I’ve been sober 2.5 years,and have skated most of my life. It gets easier,I really does. Watching these videos also inspires me!

Not for everyone,and it’s
Not the only way. But shit bro,I’m fucking sober and have a pretty damn good life now.
He isn't
Jim Greco is my favorite i think his skateboarding is the most stylish. just the way he looks...u can tell hes been doing it 4 a long time & learned from the OGs. Dustin, Ali & Jim
Its not really that stylish anymore, as much as i hate to say it...now, Reynolds on the other hand, he still holds it down like an OG
@@UniteAgainstEvil bullshit!
Guitars for dummies... ok.. stick to guitars
Greco was around years before Ali and Dollin…
Right on Jim, good film. Time flies! Props on the 13 years sober and still ripping.
This really broke me. Beautifully haunting. Incredible skating. Beautiful human. So honest. Perhaps unlike being a Rockstar in a band, it's like skating can really be a lonely journey, I think that's truly rockstar.
Sending love to Greco!
10 fucking years bro I haven't been sober. I'm 28, most I've done was a month. Good thing I've ran into this video again. This is how I am.
I’m proud of him for getting sober. When you have a bad habit it can be really tough to break. You always have that little burning desire to use again
He isn't sober.
Excellent filmmaking Jim.
This is unreal. Glad this exists.
Much love to Jim Greco!! I can not express how this video makes me feel!! I admire him too much!! Such an amazing ispiration for the skaters that are still on drugs including me...
Same man same here
@@WhatIsayIsStupidyep.
2016 the last good year
Mad respect!!! He was on some "B's" and was awesome, got clean and still rips!!! This guy is skate. Jim Greco doesn't Skateboard, Skateboard Jim Grecos!!!!!!!
Idk why this film disappeared for a while but thanks for putting it back here
This thing means a lot to me.
He ain't sober, it's a sham.
Jim greco sharing something very personal past,thank him for inspiring mislead youth days
Greco,B.A and barley are cts finest. I used to see greco with Tim upson at indoor park called cts in the early to mid 90s. Shit was epic to see as a young kid

Edit: took me a while to remenber Kurt Vile. I was feelin his stuff around this time
Thank you Jim. This one hit the soul.

He still has that Cadillac dam
Rhode Island loves Jim Greco.

I love this kind of films. Really good,
Love this dude always!

i love the way this is filmed, makes it feel more real.

I took whatever jim greco put out about getting clean that my brain could take n it helped me beat almost all my addictions
for most people either you kick it or you die I myself tried "leaving las vegas" and literally looked at my little girl one day and knew it was quit or die 😊
G R E C S !!!!!!! LOVE YOU MAN ...GREAT FILMS YOU RE DOING! THE ENDING WAS BEST EVER #AWESOME ... MADE ME CRY AND APPLAUDE IN MY HEART
First time seeing this..Really cool, Amazing ART!!

The Great Ones always Do It There own Way.I need to Get Clean Huge Inspiration
Holy cow - full on rad - so fresh. Eternal respect to the skating and the straight edge journey.
He ain't sober kid...
Too relatable

I still remember seeing him in baker ads 15 years ago dressed like Johnny Thunders..glad he's still skating..his knees must be jacked though.
Never related to anything so hard as the last few minutes of the video
Nobody can outskate Greco. He's Supergonz.
Hammer king is sober what a bad ass, it’s harder than anyone thinks!
Scorsese would have used this exact soundtrack for the Irishman if Jim didn't happen upon the idea of the exact playlist first. It almost sounds true, Greco is a real talented bastard.
Damn!!!!!
So sick
Back 3's on lockdown
watching this movie gives me the sensation that JG could easily have become like anyone of these whacked out homeless people if he hadn't kicked hard drugs and or alcohol I think that too many skaters fall into the trap of much too much , much too young
21:00... The Spot.., The Trick.., The Man.. !
I dont mind 70s greco but i certainly miss punk greco. But I will take a clean and sober greco anyday.
Just came by to give you props on an excellent youtube channel name. Interpol!
classic
jim greco been watching goodfellas too much. he's still the man though.
I just watched goodfellas tonight lol. Weird coincidence
this is more mean streets than goodfellas
I wish one day I will sk∞ like them! I also wish I will always have a job on the side so I do not have to worry about sk∞ing! just naturally do it and just push if I want to and tricks if I want to, not to ever have that stress of "I want this trick to look this way" or It needs to be done by this date" I started sk∞ing at the age of 5 years old, sk∞ed it for 15 years with no ACL, at the age of 28 finally got surgery, now at the age of 30 I still sk∞ every day and see that is better to sk∞ by my self at 3am in a parking garage than during a sunny day at the sk∞ park...
hear cocteau twins in a video of skate its amazing
Track list anybody?
Chippin hard.....
and she was always down
Anyone know where Greco got that slice lol.
Why do his shirts keep changing?
Respect.
4:00 imagine being in that silver SUV, and see some random ass fuck on a skateboard hop over what seems to be a news paper stand or phone, idk.
the place he skates in front of with the green wood looks like pattys pub for always sunny yo
Not a dis but he looks like Dennis Reynolds in some of the shots.

it’s on apple music, spotify too probably
04:33🤯🤯🤯
AKA Johnny Thunders
this guy's skating is sick. his style is good. if you want to direct a picture...even a short, have attention to detail. in the first sequence he had four different shirts on in one elevator ride. ultimately i was stoked by this little project. he's a rad skater and has some definite art skills. it just seemed kind of sloppy. maybe that was intentional. i have friends from CT. we all know he's a ripper. ultimately a good show.
@ 12:26.... Always sunny in Philadelphia lol
I can't even escape on foot!
