What’s your favorite skate memory?
Vans pretty much all of them til I broke my pelvis.
Im making them :)
First front invert/ everytime I skate
my fav memory from skating would have to be skating with the alva guys in Sydney Australia in the mid 80s .. crazy guys insane times .. fkn loved it
43 years of skating takes a toll on your memory so I'll just use the most recent:
Ran into Chris Miller at the Cardiff 7-11 gas pumps a couple of weeks ago, hadn't seen him since the 2003 ASR trade show but he's still as cool as ever. Kinda funny when a 50 year old dude like me is still geeking out on his favorite skaters (who are also 50 years old, fuck time flies).
Lance's school "term paper" complete with sliding Darrell is awesome!😂
I know! Lance has always been one of my favorite skaters and when I saw that it was like, Lance is the man.
Lance Moutain is such a great guy ! Not only did he pave the way for the world of skating - he’s is also one of the greatest guys in the world . Thank you Lance for all the good laughs and great skate boarding 🙏
This is pure. As a skater of the mid 80's I wondered how these guys got their tricks. Everything comes from something. It's awesome that Lance took the time to pay homage and share with everyone the guys that influenced him.
Olson and Peters in blood, KILL in blood, and argyle socks. Fucking love this shit, keep it coming please it's awesome.
WTF!
Grosso, Blender and Mountain were awesome to see together in the 80's. They ALWAYS kept it FUN.
This two parter was one of the best. You can feel Lance’s excitement at getting to meet and interview and THANK one of his skating idols growing up. Very few of us ever get to do that - or by the time you think about it or carve out the time to do it, it’s too late. Just so awesome to watch Lance fanboy at Darrel’s memories. He’s truly no different than any of us, and how cool to give these legends’ legends their props in such a meaningful way. Just so fucking awesome. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thanks for getting Lance to dig these out of the archives. So much GOLD!!
Skateboarding was the best thing that ever happened to me such good times 🙂
I love Lances and Grossos friendship c:
The term paper is legendary!
"there was everything before us"...amen...
...brother(s), Detroit sends love and respect...always look forward to the Love Letters, but these past two episodes have been exceedingly excellent--so grateful for the history...could sit and listen to the forefathers talk about who did what when, and how, all day...thank-you!
So awesome, wish they were an hour long. Thanks!
Lance is great. I love his laughter. 🤣
Damn. Just when i thought the letters couldn't get any better.
We are lucky, thank you Grosso!
Lance has always cracked me up! Last 10 seconds had me rolling. Great episode!
Grosso, please make these into half hour show! Love these letters, I want more but longer!
Episodes on tracking down more skaters of the era Lance is doing would produce some great content.
Also... get some of these guys to dig through those storage units for stories of gear. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I have boxes of Skateboarder magazines in my garage.
So this is part 2 of 200, right?
"there was everything before us" - Master Mountain , the quote of quotes
I love Lance, just the few clips of him skating have so much style
Lance is the man
He definitely is, Logan! If you haven't already, catch more from Jeff Grosso's Loveletters To Skateboarding here: bit.ly/2yW46ip
I love how stoked Lance is. He's clearly obsessed with skating. Him and Lucero with their socks in tribute of Darrell was hilarious.
Grosso and the Letters never disappoint!!!
Kudos for getting NMB on video. Real Genius. The Real Deal. TRUE ARTIST.
Lance with that little giggle, sounds like mischievous 5 year old boy, hilarious. Keep rippin' old timers. 52, 40+years of skating and never stopping.
Nice to see how much of a skate nerd Lucero is! :D I can totally relate to that.
This changes everything, thank you Darrell Miller for inventing this trick and I apologies for always crediting Chris Miller for inventing this trick.
Fuck. I have been wearing argyle socks since the mid 80's because of skating. Didn't know it was really because of Darrell Miller.
Here's footage of me trying to learn Miller Flips: instagram.com/p/BXZpiI5gnja/?taken-by=lord.of.the.board
Id pay to go threw lance mountains storage closets!👍✌
Fucking awesome as usual!! Every episode of the Letters should be at least an hour long! 👍👍
Thanks, Eric! Glad you're stoked. If you're digging this one, catch more from Vans Skate here! bit.ly/2xr4HuB
It would be really cool if you guys did a small series of Love Letters the parks past. Or even like a love note. A series on like Winchester, Colton, Reseda, Lakewood, Campbell Etc. Most everything at the kids see is new or it's Upland and Delmar. So much history there. I'm 53 I was there and people would be stoked I think to see how it was.
So happy can't watch this without a big grin on my face fucking love it.More please...
Thanks, Scottie! We're feeling the love. Catch more from Vans Skate here! bit.ly/2xr4HuB
we love you Jeff...
I used to wear argyle socks because Of Lance
we all did!!!!! even in new jersey.
I wore argyle socks because of Brad Bowman.
i used to watch all you guys at skate city. i was talking Lances mom one night at the keyhole while lance and neil were having a boardslide party....it was rad...
Best love letter yet

Love these episode's!RIP J.G., now as i am typing this lance is on hus 4th move of his storage building,every time he opens it on a taped interview he must protect the holy stash!notice i said filmed even if was his kid for kindergarten MUST MOVE STASH!!!!
Good job Grosso! Keep'em coming!
Dope video, but every time they showed brookhurst(moon) park made me very sad, that was the spot to sk8 back in the 80's til the city killed it .... Rest in Peace Sadlands😢
Love the Letters
haha these are amazing! Lance is our hero!
Thanks, Tim! If you love this one, you can catch more here! bit.ly/2xr4HuB
So many thumbs up for this
Reminds me of growing up
Bloodshed: "Knives were swinging...blood was spraying...and Daryl was chopped into hamburger"
The answer to the question you don't want to ask: "yo, whats up with Duane Peters face?"
Fuckin A! I know! Gods, hope he at least had fun on that coke or meth binge! Poor fucker looks horrible! Steve Olson n Duane look SO much better now. Those guys rock, n Olson is one of my faves to hear talk w Grosso.
I was wondering if they were fighting
Lance rules!!!!
"I did? Really?"
So fucking humble.
This is CLASSIC indeed... please do not hesitate and hold back on any of this stuff... Lance with that "moving" image from his essay? That shits fantastic! preesh.
This is top three loveletters
THAT layback by Duane Peters DOPE !
I love that term paper!!
Best content on the internet.
At the 10:00 minute mark there is the yellow Skull & Sword deck from Lance's part in Bones Brigade 1. Legendary.
The Chris Miller bit was/is hilarious
I asked Chris Miller if he was related to Darell the first time I met him.
this was so good u have no idea & correct thank you
At 1:32, is that the Sadlands spot behind Lance's head?
👍🏼 great stuff , thanks
Excellent
Doin' the Rockabilly Boogie.
Anyway we could get our hands on a photocopy of that "Slide and Roll" English paper?! I paused the video to read the one page it shows, and it is priceless!
I'll say it again you guys rock the pavement or were ever you set your board on peace B with you God bless
Rad, Darrell pulled me out of the clover pool at SkateCity, after I locked up on a backside air and knocked myself out... aspo, with Dave Z, I think Skeeter Kercove beat Tony Hawk at that event?
Lance rules.
Am I the only one wondering why Duane and Olson are covered in blood?? 😳
notice the quick clip directly after the interview is from the Creature movie we did called BloodShed- we did the interview on the set...
SixStair fair enough. ill have to check it out.
ua-cam.com/video/LiXxfXSkvD8/v-deo.html
SixStair haha that was rad as fuck!!
Thx for the clear up! I thought Duane had just hit a bad patch, done a facepick on stims of some kind or something...
Please give the leters to Lance and Lucero.
this was more about miller than mountain but still fkn great .. thx grosso
Mark Lake rips!
I always were argyles too
So rad! Fkn sick!
Thanks, Walter! If you were stoked on that one, you can catch more of Vans Skate here! bit.ly/2xr4HuB
I wear argyle because of lance still
The Miller Flip is alive and well in Aumsville.
I have a few hilarious Lance mountain stories. #SometimesTruthIsStrangerThanFiction lol
no one believes me when I tell them the firm had wavy pressed boards...they were awesome Lance...
I would like to know, where i can send my loveletter?
Invert reverts are sick
wtf did steve olson and duane peters get in a fight?
yomega brain i think they were making a music video
It’s was for a creature skate video. They played skaters who got killed by blood sucking whores or something like that
rip grosso man
🤯😲😄Lance Mountain coming out of the garage wrapped up like Joseph Beuys from "I like America and America likes me" is insane ! And this guy Beuys done a live art performance in New York himself without ever stepping on American land, they carried him to the building in a room with a coyote inside and he wrapped himself up like buritto. ua-cam.com/video/r9NWCOF0c5M/v-deo.htmlsi=ghw6-eCH1-G6D8JU
what is with the fake blood?
This is as much about how to get older while still being cool as it is skateboarding.
Darrell Mar?
Burrito Form Lance
Why is Olson and peters bloody?
They were filming a movie.
Did Olson and Peters beat the shit outta eachother?
I've been adding some old photos on my Insta that my sk8 friends had kept since the 80s, @bedlambrothers - check them out ( usually posted on tbt ) Keep Shreddin
Eh 🤘🏻
I guess Darrell Miller didn't really follow skateboarding after he left?
Sorry Lance, that's a frontside invert to revert your doing
I doubt he cares about your opinion.
Rad stuff lance mountain is hard core skater to the core but he is strickly so cal guy i feel southern california is 10 lbs of shit in a 5lb sack
behrritow
Argyle socks
