        The Skateboard talk got me to a point where I seriously consider buying a Skateboard again, not for Tricks but for cruising, these Old School Cruiser Decks from e.g. Powell look fun.

          This was really a great start  …

          @Steffen:

          Regarding the Skateboarding Theme, I skated from 10/11 till 15 I think so 2002 till 2007 but I wasn´t really aware on when it came to the Story of Brands and the Orgins, the Internet wasn´t that big of a thing and the Magazines where focused on the People instead on the Brands, so no Hype really back then, at least here, every Brand basiclly was in the same Price Range in the local Skate Shops.

          I was a skater 1993-1996 in the UK and have never heard of Supreme. We liked Element, Blind, Alien Workshop, ES, Etnies, Emerica, World industries etc. And they were viewed as equal more or less and no brand loyalty, picked whatever we liked the look of lol

          I’m an old fart. I used to skate from ‘86-‘89. Back then it was all about the Bones Brigade, Christian Hosoi, Santa Cruz, Vision street wear and the like. I’m still nostalgic for old skate graphics, especially Jim Phillips’ stuff!

          …...

            Lester Kasai was an old favorite of mine from that era. Same with Hosoi, the Powell & Peralta guys, the Gonz, Tony Magnusson and so much more

              I’ve thought of buying one of those reissue 80’s decks and taking it to my local skate park, but then reality sets in. I’m 46 and would likely break a hip. I was never that good to begin with so injuries are very real [emoji16]

                I´d probably buy something like this:

                The 80s reissues are really cool but I don´t think i´ll invest that amount of money into a skateboard that I plan on just rolling around from time to time.

                    I was just browsing their clothing section and there are no Tommy Guerrero products to speak of. Was hoping to nab the flaming sword tee since that was the deck I had back in the 80's. I wonder why they don't sell any Tommy G merch? Love Tommy Guerrero's music too

                      In Germany the Flaming Sword Deck is available at some Dealers but these Reissued Decks are really expensive, the Deck alone costs 150 Dollar in german Shops but Decks are in general more Expensive here then in the US.

                        Skateboard and Art was and is inseparable! I was hooked to board graphics also @gaseousclay .

                        Phillips

                        But there was also this Black&White aesthetic and Punk attitude of 'Trasher'…

                        … and Skatemusic...

                          Jim Phillips' work is amazing. Still a fan of the art from that era of skateboarding. I still think it would be awesome of Converse did a skateboard collab with whichever skateboard company and put out some Chuck 70's with some of those iconic graphics. Could be something with the old Mark Gonzales art, or the Powell & Peralta stuff or Santa Cruz.

                            Skate Shoes is definitely a story to tell!

                                Decided to have a bit of photography fun this morning and try to make one of those old skateboard magazine staples… the lots-of-pictures-in-one-picture picture.  Frontside Coleman 180 at the park on my Longboard Larry 56" Cruiser.  I've been skating on-and-off for a coupla decades, but only discovered the joy of longboarding last autumn.

                                        The comic, that can take decades to understand…. request for more if this is not enough.
