Mate of mine leased a BYD Seal. I’ve only just got rid of kiss from a rose from my internal jukebox….

FFS

I do like a bit of AO though.

Thrasher reminding me today of Leo’s birthday and Soty 2010 win.

This 2023 part is pretty mental.

25 years ago.

I still remember travelling up from Brighton with my girlfriend/wife to go to the London premiere.

Nice. I wasn’t doing any premiers then as I was the last survivor of my crew by 00 😄

Still have my DVD copy though.

Came to a realisation last night and want to throw it out there so I can get schooled…  
But I watched Falling Down before bed and thought “That was kinda shit”

Maybe social media has really fucked me up.

It is crazy that that small period rocco was selling 15 mins of kids fucking about on curbs for the same price you could get a Powell video. I honestly loved the progression of this era though so it was golden to me. Falling down was one of the worst for quality/effort vs cost.

Here’s another from that era for…historical viewing 😁

There are plenty of 15 minute edits (and shorter) out these days and no paid full lengths to compare against

Falling Down is massive for me.  
a pal bought it, and we rinsed it.

(plus it made me re-examine my earlier dismissal of the Beatles, mhaha)

I didn’t get to see Snuff till much later but I did see Tim & Henrys.  
At the time, all these videos were great. Everything skateboarding was great…

Because I didn’t really watch much skating when I’d first started. I read mags more as they were just more affordable.  
My cousin had Not The New H-Street and Attack and a couple of other bits and I rinsed those. And then I’d see these other stuff including Falling Down and it was all exciting and good.

It honestly wasn’t until Second Hand Smoke / Tentacles of Destruction / 20 Shot Sequence / Goldfish that I actually properly paid attention. And started buying videos.

And I smashed my way through absolutely everything from that point.

But with mature (read: old guy) eyes, I’m looking at Snuff and it’s sick. And Tim & Henrys and it’s sick.  
But after watching Falling Down last night, it’s just not in the same realm for me.  
Koston is pretty good.

I guess it’s the progression I’m not taking into account.

Was kinda hoping for someone to pile in here with a long list of why I am an idiot and have gotten this totally wrong.

Hey ho.

Watched the Color and Prime videos from the early 90’s last night and thought maybe something similar: apart from the obvious ones (Markovich and Wray) most the others were worse than some of the people I skated with at the time in the UK. Don’t think you get that these days do you?

Falling down has its pros and cons.

Groundbreaking tech combined with poor filming.

I think Falling Down was Rocco’s alternative to the classic full lengths and endless full lengths released in the two years prior eg H Street, New Deal, Plan B… Maybe Powell but they were already passé.

Rocco’s short videos were a break in tradition. Here was the new guard doing new shit. They skated different, dressed different, listened to different music. There was scarcity and rarity too in these videos. Also watching an 8minute promo was quicker to get you skating or down to thsn skateshop than an hour long opus.

Speaking of Deee-Lite

I was once at some big rave fest in Finsbury Park (Essential Weekender ‘97 maybe?) and saw Lady Miss Kier and Lisa I’Anson hanging out behind the dj box in one of the tents. My 20something drug-addled brain thought Lady Miss Kier was the most beautiful goddess that ever existed and I almost wept with joy.

Bonus anecdote topper: when we were leaving I saw Bobby Gillespie waiting for a bus at the Gillespie Road bus stop. This was pre-phones, so no photo, but it would have been some great instagram fodder if it happened now
