I used to love BMXing to music, as kids in the 80's my friend's Dad built a huge ramp, it was so heavy and we would roll it out on the road, put out tape player (lol yeh tape player) and BMX all day long freestyle, every time a car came past we had to move the ramp, dude great times!! My hats off to all you guys out there doing it today, whether skate boarding, BMX, Surf, keep rocking your boards and the music!

watching this really reminds me of the age gap between Grosso and my generation (90s kid) cuz we got into skating through warped tour and THPS and the pop punk scene that cultivated outta the grunge and skate rock, and when we got a little older we went back and found a lot of the shit covered in this episode. A LOT of people kinda discredit shit like that cuz that's also when punk, and the skate subculture became commercialized...but like who gives a shit if Blink-182 is selling mccdonalds toys and on TRL and shit, it was still the outlet we found that allowed us to dig deeper and find The F.U.'s and Minor Threat.
