Mike Vallely "Twenty One Years"

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

No way, I've just set myself with a old school Vallely board - time to carve shit up! :-P

Mike V rocks. Similar style to John Cardiel, fast, big and burly:

BTW, this is a really good watch. About Cardiels accident etc, plus him on a fixie. LOL

YouTube - John Cardiel - Epicly Later'd

mike and cardiel arent even on the same level......cardiel knows where its as. mike sadly doesnt.

YouTube - Static III - New Jersey minute

worth a watch.

cardiel blows mike v away

Agree, ALL HAIL CARDIEL! Damn shame what happened to him.

Mike V has got all philosophical in his old age. Still, there's no doubt the dude shreds to this day.

I'm not usually a fan of super-tech skating but: heelflip to primo slide to frontside shuvit out? What. The. Fuck.

YouTube - Rodney Mullen vs Daewon Song

i love that manual at the end, from Rubbish Heap

Mike V and JC both rule . . they are 2 of only a handfull of skaters who combine big balls with vision and creativity, and are able to bring a big bag of both new school and old school tricks and through em all together . . between em they pretty much wrote the book on modern powerfull street skating.

All Hail Cardiel

^^^I thought this was a thread about Vallely?

Always thought he was a bit of meat head. But I do (grudgingly) admire his 100% committed balls out approach.

And it's Chris Haslam that rules. FACT.

no fuckin way!! jamie bolland

Anyone remember Alex Moul? Now team manager for Santa Cruz. Not bad for a little cunt from Oxford
http://www.santacruzskateboards.com/team/rider.php?RIDER=amoul

Turned pro at 14, can't be bad

Are you from Oxford Pistanator?

Kind of, lived there from the age of 11 - 20. '87 - '96

Used to know Alex quite well, really nice guy. From getting to know him out and about skating, then hanging round SS20 etc.
Used to buy vinyl off him when he worked in Massive Records too. He played Drum & Bass though which was never my bag
He still DJ's quite a bit in the US apparently

yeah i know what you mean about the meat head thing, have you seen that video of him fighting with security gaurds? if i can remeber it he goes ape shit when the try and take his board, but still he does throw it down.

well ive been living in Glasgow for the past three years, Glasgow is by far, the best city in Scotland, Edinburgh is indeed a 'pretty' city but for life and as an actual functional city i feel Glasgow is a lot better, seems to be a lot lighter community.
