A brave new 3rd blog

My friend Matt Pancer used to have a VCR and Betamax-VHS player thing, and he used to tape all of the videos we had from VHS over to Beta. I seem to remember him then transferring the master video from Beta back to normal VHS, and voila - we had this terrible quality, but completely enjoyable videotape with all sorts of skate videos.

Matt,

If you ever read this, and you have that tape, I NEED to borrow it. I've been trying to find all those old videos, and it's not happening. I'm sorry that I took that tape for granted, and I apologize for not letting you borrow Mouse because I knew you were going to dub it for the master video.

Now that that's out in the open, here's the New Deal Promo thingy from 1996 (that's close to what it's actually called). Thank you to whoever uploaded this I guess. It's the next best thing to the version that was on that whatever generation videocassette.

But it's just not the same.






JB and Neil Urwin FTW!

A curiously alarming 2nd blog

Last time we met, we got to enjoy a happily dancing T-bag Olson, a glasses-laden Peter Smolik, and Tom Penny's magical board-slapping feet. We also learned that Jean Baptiste would morph into the now instantly recognizable and iconic JB! Wow! Magnificent!

This time we'll watch the first montage from Interface, and you can decide what's better: Andrew Reynolds' haircut, or Jeremy Deglopper's last name?



We should probably start a petition for someone/somewhere (I don't care where) to turn Jeremy Deglopper pro again (Reda's Tree Fort reference the other day on The Berrics was the best). Who wouldn't want a Jeremy Deglopper pro board? It sounds like he could be a Garbage Pail Kid (no offense if your last name is Deglopper - Garbage Pail Kids were so cool that there was a movie about them).

A somewhat interesting 1st blog

Apparently, this blog is going to be focused around nothing of importance. Just old Youtube skate parts and probably some other stuff I'm interested in that you may or may not care for. Let me know if this grates you or rubs you the wrong way. thx!





So, first! Etnies High 5!
