How long before Ellis turns into a whiny cunt like Stern and O&A?

As far as the speaking with authority while being completely fucking uninformed that's shit happens in every talk radio show and podcast I listen to except for Startalk with Neil Degrasse Tyson. That shit fucking infuriates me.

Startalk is awesome.

Ellis' ultra macho tough guy party dude persona sucks, hes best as a guest on stern. I don't know the side kicks but the guy who sounds like he has a deviated septum annoys me to no end.

Danny Way is the all time ruler. He gets kind if pigeon holed as a ramp guy but in the early to mid 90s he was a street ripper of the highest order.

He skated park style street though, not true street like Hensley, Tommy Guerrero, Natas or Mark Gonzales.

He had a sick ass part in Plan Bs "Virtual Reality" with a lot of true street shit.
But he wasn't what I'd call a "street skater", either.

Kind of like how Gonz is a street skater but can ride vert like a motherfucker.

Putting this here because why the fuck not:

I started watching that tonight but got interrupted. Looked very good from what I saw of it.

Just watched the Burnquist clip. Absolutely amazing.

That Burnquist video is sickeningly awesome.

Here is the complete classic THE SEARCH FOR ANIMAL CHIN...

thanks for TSFAC link. I lost my tape of it a long time ago.

Future Primitive was always a favorite of mine too. Tommy G's opening scenes were great.

And just as an aside if anyone ever comes across an old Psycho Stick deck for a decent price grab it for me and I will pay you.

It is one of my favorite decks and I would like it for my wall.

Kids in my neighborhood hated Rodney Mullen (and Per Wellender...sic?) when I was a skater. It was all big ramp skaters (not that there even was a big ramp anywhere we could get to).

But I tell you in retrospect RODNEY MULLEN IS THE MOST AWESOME
