This silly trick inspired a lot of people. It was even cited as an influence in Think and Thank, the Threads video from 2021. I've gradually been rewatching Think and Thank, as it is one of those flicks that requires some slow effort to fully understand. They give a tip of the hat to a lot of lesser known skaters or tricks in a historical context and that's pretty cool.
For more internet skateboard nostalgia, check out Skate Media Nerd. It's a Minnesota based project that is scanning some different stuff from the 2000s. There's a focus on Skateboarder and the Skateboard Mag, which is good because both of those are starting to get lost to the sands of time.
