Let us know in the comments which tape you thought was the best.

2025-01-29 19:26:16 +0000 UTCas a skateboarder i know im gonna get triggered, but lets go baby. also ill give some info for questions they ask as I go per skater--Tony: yes he still drops little parts here and there, no full parts as of 2023 being his last full part Bob: yes man does love to fly, built that whole compound and more in his backyard, pioneer of big air skating and just going huge Jamie Thomas: no questions asked, but yes Eric, he is AWESOME Rodney Mullen: Anything you see a skater do today, wouldnt exist without whatever Rodney thought of, skating uses a LOT of VX100 cameras or just old film cameras in general because of the style and feel/sound of it, plus with fisheye it looks great. HD filming is not as good for skating as youd think Steve Cab: no questions Bucky Lasek: Eric is right, Bucky is known for going huge and making it look EASY, one of my favorites ever. Chad Muska: ERIC I WILL BUY THAT CD OFF OF YOU IM NOT EVEN JOKING HIT ME UP!! Elissa Steamer: she in fact still goes, was on Baker has a Deathwish pt 2 in 2024. Eric Koston: Yes geoff, the entire prime girl crew was the catalyst to what street skating has become today (stairs, rails, ledges) Geoff Rowley: nothing really brought up, but Geoff is such an amazing story and such an amazing role model in the ever chaotic world of skating; a true defined legend. Kareem Campbell: no Kareem enjoying that retired skate ambasador life, deserved after what hes dropped. Andrew Reynolds(The Boss): he OWNS Baker (and Deathwish) lol. Leo Baker: reason why Geoff may feel like theyre familiar to him is because Leo used to be Lacey Baker before his transition. Great Video, loving Eric's hype. yall def need to do an xgames watchalong next summer

2024-10-28 13:56:10 +0000 UTCHonestly, I think it's crazy anyone WOULDN'T think that. Though, I didn't even though you could watch them.
taukid
2024-09-08 21:24:48 +0000 UTCI can't believe Gavin didn't mention that Dan let out a HUGE fart when he landed AND it's a story Tony Hawk tells. Here's a video where they react to Tony Hawk telling a story about him a podcast, it's hilarious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gB6YiCjUBxc
taukid
2024-09-08 17:59:30 +0000 UTCi think the guys have a little bit of a recency-bias lol
Ware and Peace
2024-08-02 07:15:39 +0000 UTCDid anyone else FULLY think they were gonna rank the tapes based on how hard they are to find in game? Like, they'd see gameplay of each tape being obtained, then rank it?
Bryce
2024-07-30 22:02:52 +0000 UTCRIP Vicarious Visions, thank you for giving us this & the Crash remakes - And a big fuck you to Blizzard for ensuring we'd never get remakes of the other incredible THPS games
BernNotice
2024-07-25 19:24:30 +0000 UTCThe vids on him from Red Bulls skateboarding YT channel are perfect examples of his tremendous skills 👍
BernNotice
2024-07-25 18:45:10 +0000 UTCMullen is the GOAT for sure, but I an perfectly happy seeing Koston and Nyjah at 1 and 2 in this based on the clips. The rest are reasonable but debatable.
Jake Jarvis
2024-07-25 03:04:47 +0000 UTCIf you guys wanna check out a new school skater, definitely look up Andy Anderson. Mixes all styles and shreds them all.
Condsy
2024-07-09 20:22:06 +0000 UTCFatalities in (a) Mortal Kombat might be fun to rank
Yoshi D'Haen
2024-07-04 18:07:05 +0000 UTCDecember of 2024 will be my 20th year skateboarding, having you guys watch and rank this is incredible for my childhood. Bam was #1 until 2012. Nyjah is the true #1 in 2024

2024-07-01 16:47:47 +0000 UTCGreat Idea Andrew! Loved this! Olympic skate comps aren't too far away now!
Hayden
2024-06-29 03:01:36 +0000 UTCThis was great! THPS2 was and still is one of my favorite games. The soundtrack was so good! You by Bad Religion is the song I always think of. And When Worlds Collide by Powerman5000. I think I need to get the remakes.
Elliot Schmitt
2024-06-28 03:27:15 +0000 UTCThey have definitely proclaimed being the best on the mountain without knowledge as it can be an incredible f**kface
Chaz Surfboard
2024-06-27 18:45:15 +0000 UTCI feel like gnar is very them esp Gavin any Geoff but at the same time they are so southern and far from ski culture probably
Pharmer Pharmer
2024-06-27 18:26:14 +0000 UTCSuch a good show. Was surprised to find it randomly free and complete on YouTube
Pharmer Pharmer
2024-06-27 18:24:30 +0000 UTCHad no idea they had patreon only videos. Glad it was off-handedly mentioned in another video.
Avlin Starfall
2024-06-27 13:23:53 +0000 UTCEric kinda woke a memory for me and I'm suprised I didn't notice till now. That the reason I fucking love this content and the kinda stuff Eric enjoys too is bc he reminds me of my older brother. Playing Tony hawk pro skater 3 when I was 10 jamming out to the soundtrack ans my brother being 16 showing me all the screcrets and music I've never hears or seen
Kyle Potter
2024-06-26 14:39:31 +0000 UTCI have so much trouble watching the Patreon videos, I'll pause for something and then it will crash with an out of memory error. Only ever happens watching video on Patreon and it does not save my place in the video.

Eli Munson
2024-06-26 04:13:32 +0000 UTCDigging the music, hearing Token in the background I was like wait wtf? But I love it
Eli Munson
2024-06-26 04:13:15 +0000 UTCTotally not surprised that Eric knows someone from Fu Manchu. Let's get the guys from the desert sessions and QOTSA in on this!
Roger Flynn
2024-06-26 04:09:07 +0000 UTCMad respect for all the music referenced in this vid.
Roger Flynn
2024-06-26 04:07:45 +0000 UTC10:50 is the equivalent of Burnie's "I could take any animal" moment.

2024-06-26 02:22:17 +0000 UTCAnyone watched KASSO? I really enjoyed the episodes they have on Youtube.
puddlePoseidon
2024-06-26 02:16:20 +0000 UTCGavin definitely missed out by not getting a burrito in San Diego. Shoutout to Roberto’s in Lakeside, best burrito spot in SD imo
Ash R.
2024-06-25 23:49:08 +0000 UTCthe most comfortable skate shoe is the high impact vans....
Duaine Kelley
2024-06-25 16:27:32 +0000 UTCI used to have a lathe-cut record of music and audio from ads of this demo disk lol
Luna Miner
2024-06-25 12:36:37 +0000 UTCWhat was the first of the "other movies" that was skipped?
Luna Miner
2024-06-25 12:35:35 +0000 UTCWish there was more NOFX in Tony Hawk games, far as i can remember its inly Church and Skate in one of the THUG games.
KVLT
2024-06-25 07:16:19 +0000 UTC"I wasnt't blown away" in reference to Steve Cab made my heart hurt
KVLT
2024-06-25 07:11:21 +0000 UTCthis was amazing
Joshua Keehn
2024-06-25 02:16:49 +0000 UTCSuch an awesome video! The OG pro skaters were some of my first video games! Millencolin’s No Cigar has been a mystery ear worm for me for YEARS so thanks for that haha
Eddie
2024-06-25 01:42:18 +0000 UTCThis video made me warm and fuzzy inside

2024-06-24 19:25:16 +0000 UTCPlease play through the Underground games for content, i would be over the moon
Jordan Cannon
2024-06-24 16:57:31 +0000 UTCI don't think we have Regulation Skiing, but I would love a Gnar watch along with the crew
Chaz Surfboard
2024-06-24 16:57:20 +0000 UTCThe first song that comes to mind for these games is Guerilla Radio by Rage Against The Machine. I played a ton of THPS3 on the ps2 with my dad so this was so fun to watch
Chip Clip
2024-06-24 16:49:40 +0000 UTCLasek is #1 for me just for using a Less Than Jake song. Lol
Apathetic_Titan
2024-06-24 16:18:19 +0000 UTCNever been into these games or skating. And yet... I loved watching this.
Rachel Hansen
2024-06-24 16:12:23 +0000 UTCThe song that comes to my mind is not the same by bodyjar
Niall H
2024-06-24 15:59:14 +0000 UTCThis is. So weird. I was just watching the "Dan reacts to Tony Hawk talking about him falling" video on YouTube. Closed YouTube to watch the patreon version of 100% Eat, and I see the thumbnail for this is Dan fucking falling.
Andy
2024-06-24 14:52:28 +0000 UTCGreat vid! small suggestion of maybe using excel dark mode?
Sven Michel
2024-06-24 14:51:59 +0000 UTCCan we get a video of Gavin playing this for the first time with everyone else watching?
Tom Scott
2024-06-24 13:56:27 +0000 UTCGreat footage 👏 Even greater idea to do this! Thanks guys.
David Mead
2024-06-24 13:49:23 +0000 UTCLoved this, love y'all.
Charles Walsh
2024-06-24 10:13:24 +0000 UTCDid not expect to see Geoff Rowley skating down some steps at my high school in Las Vegas.
Pom Puma Dragon
2024-06-24 06:27:48 +0000 UTCThat last bail. Holy crap
Ryan
2024-06-24 05:10:14 +0000 UTCI reckon using the 'tierlist' format would feel better, especially with Andrew saying 'they sort of form groups' lol. Great content either way though.
Randal Davis
2024-06-24 04:42:42 +0000 UTCSuper unique content. Have so much nostalgia for these games as one of the few I could play with my dad who had issues with his hands. But sad there wasn't more love for THUG and it's complete arcade nonsense that I loved as a setting
Ocean
2024-06-24 04:35:22 +0000 UTCThis is the best video I think I’ve ever seen
Andie
2024-06-24 04:33:21 +0000 UTCWould love to get a watch along to some of the iconic skate videos like new blood and enjoi
Sepeternal
2024-06-24 04:30:28 +0000 UTCAwesome to see the Jamie Thomas love! He put me on flow from zero and fallen when I was younger.
Sepeternal
2024-06-24 04:20:39 +0000 UTCMy go-to song is Ace Of Spades, from THPS 3. It was the intro/attract mode song, so I heard it every time I played the game. It was also in the era of "I have to buy my own video games," so I bought so many of them cheap at EB Games/Gamestop.
ClubMeSoftly
2024-06-24 03:56:14 +0000 UTCThis is my favorite thing you all have ever made. I would love to see more bonus content watches and rankings and such.
connor
2024-06-24 02:41:57 +0000 UTCI need a regulation sack. Think of it! I have all this stuff and I need some place to put it.
Marqujr
2024-06-24 01:48:26 +0000 UTCI would love them to re-release the thumbsticks. Pls Regulation Squad. Pls .
Austin A.
2024-06-24 00:47:34 +0000 UTCTHPS 1 is one of the biggest reasons I'm into metal now and it was solely because of ace of spades.

2024-06-24 00:43:16 +0000 UTCgod Eric's Bam voice killed me
Cameron Johnson
2024-06-24 00:21:07 +0000 UTCGonna be honest I want a regulation bag now. Or at least a patch to add to mine!
DumGun

Scribe Lur
2024-06-23 22:53:28 +0000 UTCThis video was awesome! I think for me when I think of THPS music, the first song is Ace of Spades!
Joshua Neditch
2024-06-23 22:04:44 +0000 UTCI thought I could skateboard because I saw a monkey do it
Nathaniel Borgen
2024-06-23 21:58:41 +0000 UTCGeoff was right, Andrew has been killing it and I absolutely love this kind of content. I would also love to see a return to the break show, but this was electric
John Corley
2024-06-23 21:49:10 +0000 UTCThere is an Eric, an Andrew, and a Geoff on the list of skaters. What a fun coincidence.
Aaron Fye
2024-06-23 21:47:42 +0000 UTCThey should have cut in Dan into the falls at the end
Sir Fishy
2024-06-23 21:41:37 +0000 UTCThe thumbnail hahahaha. Perfection, no notes
Winter
2024-06-23 21:00:30 +0000 UTCGavin saying "That was just magic" during the Shane O'Neil part is such a perfect way of describing his skating. You should definitely check out more from him. My top three would be: 1) Shane O'Neil 2) Rodney Mullen 3) Nyjah Huston
A1notsauce
2024-06-23 20:09:31 +0000 UTCI played the first level of THPS1 so much because I had a Pizza Hut demo disk with Ape Escape, THPS1, and FF7. What a legend of a demo disk. Also Goldfinger for the song. I probably have the muscle memory still to do the unlimited special cheat and then straight into an Over the Pipe + Secret Room
TheComet25
2024-06-23 20:02:59 +0000 UTCThis was so awesome
Josie Boi
2024-06-23 19:27:33 +0000 UTCHell yes, boys. Can't wait to come back to this in a few hours when I can 🤙
vibin_psilocybin
2024-06-23 18:47:45 +0000 UTCSuperman by Goldfinger is *the* song but recently I’ve been feeling 96 Quite Bitter Beings by CKY purely for the opening
Dan Fedynyshyn
2024-06-23 18:43:45 +0000 UTCI associate "All I Want" by The Offspring with THPS. This could also be because of Demo Disk, but I'm pretty sure it was on one of the game soudtracks.
Post Poop Zoomies
2024-06-23 18:21:19 +0000 UTCJust casually singing along to my childhood’s playstation 1 music while the boys are talking about whatever.
Yo Mama
2024-06-23 18:00:26 +0000 UTCThis rocks! Never expected this kind of content and I absolutely love it!!
Aaron Barcelata-O'Neill
2024-06-23 17:54:24 +0000 UTCThis was fun
Jeff Freeman
2024-06-23 17:46:05 +0000 UTCI don't think anyone else is putting this video out, this is such a specific Andrew choice for content and I am all about it
Ryan hillard
2024-06-23 17:40:12 +0000 UTCThe variety of content so far is so great.
Xeon1822
2024-06-23 17:38:11 +0000 UTCI knew Eric would be into Zero.
CloudyVro
2024-06-23 17:29:01 +0000 UTCat 40:17 I'm pretty sure we saw an ankle snap
Kyle Voltti
2024-06-23 17:27:02 +0000 UTCTony Hawks Pro Skater 2 was my first video game I ever owned, before that I was just renting at blockbuster. But the intro video to Pro Skater 2 has been burned into my brain for two decades and I still think about it regularly.
Chaz Carter (BlindyTheBat)
2024-06-23 16:53:38 +0000 UTCThis is great. I started playing the remakes just last week. I'm so much worse than I was at the originals, 25 years ago...
Joe
2024-06-23 16:36:02 +0000 UTCThis rules
Justin McDonald
2024-06-23 16:33:41 +0000 UTCThe video cadence is so great. Thanks for all y'alls level of effort!
Zenifi (Niko)
2024-06-23 16:23:28 +0000 UTCLeo takes it for me because I could hear FIDLAR in their part.
Harold Joeseph Hibbard
2024-06-23 16:12:30 +0000 UTCIt's such a shame 3+4 got cancelled. I was really excited to get new versions of those great games too.
Sara
2024-06-23 16:06:25 +0000 UTCThat last bail is the funniest shit I've seen
Smick E. Dibbly
2024-06-23 16:05:09 +0000 UTCAlso fun fact there was supposed to be a Tony Hawk 3+4 remake but the team was put on to make CoD pretty sure it was Valhalla which most people hated
Nick Hudson
2024-06-23 15:55:58 +0000 UTCIf anyone wants to check out some skateboarding that is art checkout Grlswirl its a female led skateboarding company where they carve and the base line for everything is just skating doesn’t matter if you want to just ride you can
Nick Hudson
2024-06-23 15:53:47 +0000 UTCI miss skating
NedSleep
2024-06-23 15:45:02 +0000 UTCthis ruled
Carson Thorn
2024-06-23 15:34:54 +0000 UTCYeah, I agree.
Chad Jorgenson
2024-06-23 15:31:38 +0000 UTCNot gonna lie I think I need more skateboarding content from you guys lol. Great vid!
Ryder Anderson
2024-06-23 15:31:22 +0000 UTCNot sure if these will go on YouTube, but I dug out my Chromecast to watch this on TV, as patreon supports Chromecast 👍
Andy Burness
2024-06-23 15:15:47 +0000 UTCI read the description too quickly and thought it was going to be gameplay of them collecting all the secret tapes (which I would love to see them do - as a stream maybe?) - but this was really cool, hits right in the nostalgia, such a good idea for a video!
Andy Burness
2024-06-23 15:14:12 +0000 UTCAmazing way to start a Regulation Sunday!
Michael Mariani
2024-06-23 15:10:04 +0000 UTCI understand Gavins Burnquist/Mullen argument. With Burnquist the skateboard is more of a means of conveyance while with Mullen it's the center piece of the "performance"
Nathan Sweatt
2024-06-23 15:09:06 +0000 UTCI'm so fucking stoked about every video they put out
Hunter Mackey
2024-06-23 15:04:13 +0000 UTCTony Hawk is 56 - don't let your dreams be dreams!
Tilgare
2024-06-23 14:32:18 +0000 UTCNick working so hard the whole video, while trying to also enjoy the content he's unfamiliar with and contribute: yeah! Eric: fucking get him, guys.
Tilgare
2024-06-23 14:31:04 +0000 UTCWatching this video of so many people I tried to emulate in the 90's and early 00's made me want to try to skate again. The bail video reminded me I broke my leg so badly a decade ago that I had surgery and spent 16 weeks in a cast and probably shouldn't start trying again 5 weeks from my 44th birthday.
NoThatOtherGuy
2024-06-23 14:28:13 +0000 UTCRodney Mullen is the best but Andy Anderson does come a close second in the technical skating
DarthSion89
2024-06-23 14:28:03 +0000 UTCThis was a great nostalgia hit! Thanks guys!
Thomas Thayer
2024-06-23 14:24:18 +0000 UTCI loved this and would love seeing you guys react/watching other skate content down the road. Just to hear reactions to tapes of guys like Mike Vallely or Chris Haslam Also Tony Hawk soundtrack rankings would be a super fun video
Wilson Chase
2024-06-23 13:55:36 +0000 UTCMy favorite part of videos like this is hearing these guys talk about, and show off all the stuff they know. Man I want a modern Tony Hawk: Underground. I really hope Skate 4 is great.
Boone lockyer
2024-06-23 13:52:55 +0000 UTCAwesome video
Grant Anders
2024-06-23 13:52:30 +0000 UTCNow I just wanna watch Yeah Right!
Corey Burns
2024-06-23 13:17:07 +0000 UTCCatching up with what-goes-where, do these go on the YouTube? Much better than watching on my phone if so
Andy
2024-06-23 13:11:40 +0000 UTCThis is totally rad dudes
