A couple or three weeks ago, I started to rewatch some old videos. I haven't really been interested in watching videos at all lately, but I decided to dig through the archives to see what I had forgotten about. I found some good stuff, like Jimmy Lannon's part in Volunteers. This was a video made by Mikey Bueso in 2015 and is a great collection of gritty East Coast street skating. I revisited solo joints by Brent Atchley and Dylan Rieder since those are quick views. It's wild to think that skateboarding had the money to give away free DVDs fifteen years ago compared to how things are today. Plenty has been written about Dylan over the years and I doubt I can add much of anything worthwhile, except to say that revisiting the classics after some time away is never a bad idea.
Thursday was warm and dry for driveway skateboarding. I wanted to be sure to roll for a while since the weather looks dicey going forward. My legs were tired, but I made the most of it. It was one of those days where skateboarding is simply a reason to be outside and not worry about a stupid noseslide taking way too many tries to land. I did see a couple of robins in the yard so maybe spring is getting here sooner instead of later.
