The first Flip video took more than three years to produce. The first trick filmed that made it into Sorry was Geoff Rowley's lipslide down the double-kink in Laguna, in 1997. The last trick filmed, just days before the May 21, 2002 premiere, was Tom Penny's line at the Belmont ledges in Long Beach. It is also known for the Boulala 25 steps ollie attempt that was tried on two occasions. On the first attempt he landed the trick, but his board exploded on impact. The second attempt was on the last day of filming. Sorry's main cameraman, Fred Mortagne, was leaving for the United States the following day to edit the video. On the way there it started to drizzle. To make matters worse, Ali still had to set up a board. Feeling rushed by the weather, Ali went for it without even warming up. He landed on his board, but couldn't stay on. He went to try it again, but the run-up was getting wet and his foot slipped while pushing full-speed. He lost his balance at the point of no return, so he had to go for it anyway. He kicked his board away mid-ollie, hoping he would clear the steps. He landed feet-first on the flat, severely bruising both heels and was injured for two months. The whole session lasted no more than five minutes.

Transworld SKATEboarding - David Gravette - And Now

The Kalis series finally begins. Right off the bat, Josh clears up a few issues for everybody and we get right into things with how it all got started in Grand Rapids. Sean Sheffey appears and lets us know that Josh has always been a well respected skater, and Mike Blabac recalls when Josh helped him learn how to use his camera. Ted Lee provided the archival footage of a young Kalis, and if there had been more time we would have loved to show more of Ted’s incredible old footage that includes a New Deal demo with Ed Templeton and Mike Vallely. Enjoy.

Jon Miner killed it with this epic "From Birth to Skater of the Year" presentation for this year's champ, Leo Romero.

New York in the 90's in summertime was the fucking best. I had a lot of my firsts out here… first time in a club, first time I took acid, getting blown in a cab... everybody was just surviving so hard out here. I guess I just thrived on that... Shit, I'm still here... but in Brooklyn now. The city ain't got nothing good for me anymore. Everybody's died or cleaned up. Party's over...

I came across two lost digi tapes of footage I shot of Dustin Dollin in Sydney 2 years ago, when we were thinking Adventures With Chris was going to be more of a Conversations With Chris show. I hope you enjoy. How can you not? It’s Dustin and he’s the best.

Bad Shit gives you their take on All Hail Cardiel. This shit is for real.

For Gonzales, the limits of possibility simply do not exist. And that’s probably why he’s inspired generation after generation with his skating. Our conversation about learning tricks reminds me about his recent documented attempts at kickflipping on a bike — an act that is seemingly impossible. But is it? “I think I can make it. I haven’t gotten very close at all. Mentally I’ve always been real close but physically I’ve always been real far away from it. The reason I think I’m getting close is some of my friends think I’ve totally lost it. So that’s why I think I’ll be close to making it soon. It’s always when you’re super laughed at, that’s when it’s gonna happen. It’s always when someone thinks, ‘What an idiot,’ that’s when you’re gonna pull it.”

10. Every year during its annual sales convention, Adidas invites its star athletes to meet and greet the public and stockholders. One year the shoe giant invited The Gonz and as he was introduced, he skated out on stage with tennis star Martina Hingis on his shoulders. The big wigs at Adidas went berserk. Recalls Lance Mountain, “Adidas was freaking out like, ‘What is he doing? He’s gonna drop our trophy.’”

"Strippen, saufen, Sinn suchen: Mitte der neunziger Jahre gründete eine Handvoll Lebenskünstler in den USA ein Paradies für Aussteiger, Skater und rebellische Teenies. Sie schufen einen utopischen Mini-Staat, geführt von einem tätowierten Diktator und CIA-Agenten, die Autos anzünden."
