Check out YOUNG Tony Hawk 🛹 

90s too with the pastel colors

You notice that huh.

@@lyndy101 nah, the 90s pretty quickly became all about muted tones etc. I wouldn't have been caught dead wearing anything i wore in the 80s for most of the 90s. Once grunge hit culture shifted pretty quickly towards moving away from the bombastic colorful vibes of the 80s.

you do realize the camera lense was different???

jesus christ when was the last time you saw something besides pixels?@@lyndy101

It’s $150 if a skate board in 60s and 70s was like $20 then it wouldn’t drop to $1.50

​@@ihaveaboonerthe news reporter in the video said $1.50

@@helloproxy dollar fifty is slang for $150 boards wouldn’t drop from $20 in the 60s to $1.50 in the 80s

Did you really think you could buy a board for ONE dollar and fifty? Come on now, even if they were different times, that’s literally impossible. He meant 150.

Yeah $1.50 if skating existed in maybe in like 1942 lmao

Baked*

dude totally! 😝

​@misanthrope5063 "blasted" is same as "stoned" or "baked" in some places

@@misanthrope5063there’s a lot of different terms for it

@@KrawberryFacts hella slang for weed shits prolly infinite

it's not $1.50 that's rubbish I REMEMBER AND RECALL 1987 My first board was a ROAD WARRIOR From BigW it was $20 so there is NO WAY !!! that a Santa Cruz or Powell Peralta was 1.50 I later had a Power Peralta and my mate had a Santa Cruz I bought JUST THE BOARD $150 then after you get Trucks, Rail guards, Soft compound street wheels I think i paid around $200 approx for the completed board (that i had to build) My mate paid like $250 all up THERE IS NO WAY ANY BOARD in 1987 was $1.50 NOT A HOPE even back in the 70s they were like $5 i reckon $1.5 is code for $150 it was possible to buy a board for $15 but not for $1.50 NOT A CHANCE Back in the day $2 got you a bag or Marbles, think about that A Container of slime was $10approx A BMX bike was like $80 hence a standard skateboard complete was like $20 or $30 but if you went with top brands like Santa Cruze or Peralta, No... You're above $130 EASY ! Same if you got a BMX but then you want Handlebar pads and bark busters and tuffs etc and better brakes Your bike is gonna go from $80 to around $250 Hence why we didn't all have a Redline or Mongoose like you see in BMX Bandits and we didn't all have Boards like you see in Gleaming the Cube that was only in you were considered RICH at the time... or... IF YOU MOWED LIKE A MILLION LAWNS FOR POCKET MONEY

You just found out?

$150

Or a modern day hybrid wfh worker. Lucky if many of us even have pants on for the zoom calls

W Tony

and 100k for a teen today isn't ?

@dontworry1328 do you always put words in people's mouth you fukn puss e?

​@@dontworry1328Did he say that ?

comparing the price to everything that’s on the market at this time since then… no, 100k is not the same, and yes it depends how wisely they use it, 100%, 80%, 50%, or 0%, it’s up to them how they spend the 100k today, you can use it 100% wisely and still end up broke, or use it 100% wisely and make another 100k (legally saying) but yeah, in the end, 100k today wont buy as nearly the same shi it could 40 years ago.

That’s what a skater got paid if his deck was sold. A fully complete board was over US$100 back in the mid 80’s, which was quite a lot. At his peak, Tony Hawk was making over $20K per month on board royalties from Powell.

A buck fifty is slang for 150$ bruh

⁠@@benyseus6325he said “a dollar fifty” I know what you mean tho

@@Elitaracy mate a dollar fifty is slang for 150$. Do ppl honestly believe a board costs 1.50$?? Use some common sense cmon

@@benyseus6325 I literally agreed with u…..

Or he incorporated the retrospective of the republican on the youth of a generation that didn't match with reality. Only time will tell. Btw Tony Hawk is the reason skateboarding is in the Olympics. Appreciate your national treasure. Nobody in the world has done more than him for the sport

He is literally a Renaissance man in the world of skateboarding

You literally know nothing if you hold that opinion about that scene at the time

@@shaunpiotrowski3185 Did you really feel the need to make 3 separate posts refuting my comment which was solely my OPINION and meant to be silly and poke fun at the guy from the end? You sound like a blast a parties. Maybe you need to stop taking yourself so seriously, as no one was bashing Tony Hawk. I, myself, am a skateboarding fan and also respect Tony. But you just demonstrated one of the most anti-skateboarding and anti-free spirited attitudes I've ever seen, and Tony Hawk himself would probably spit at your feet if he saw you in person.

@@user-yz5mn2go2dbro the store clerk geeked me up too 😂 hes got the california dreamin sparkle in his eye saying all that

Beige and brown is IN too now….can’t forget beige my guy 😂❤

$1.50 in 1987 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $4.06 today!!? Dude, the purchasing power of the dollar went waay down!

@@user-dq6pm6sg8z those same boards start at 50 dollars now

My mom drove from Indina to Mexico on $5 of gas in the early nineties

@@wolfpackwarriorshaha yeah right.

It's 150

“Ollie air” lol

@@idhatemet00 that’s what it was called in the 80s fella when done off a launch ramp

Yep, talk about inflation.

😂😂😂😂

I mean, Look at that haircut... He'll amount to nothing

And he looks like a bad influence

Just rewatched that movie for the first time in years and years on Amazon the other month. I forgot it also had a performance from the Red Hot Chili Peppers in it too, back when they were really heavy on the funk sound.

@@moonlitegram I bought it off of eBay, I loved it so much when I was younger when I got into his games

He was in "Thrashin" as well.

Rodney Mullen was also in gleaming the cube!

What a CLASSIC 80's movie for skateboarding. The classic 1980's movie for BMX is "Rad". The classic surf flick in that era is "Northshore"

Was about to say. That dude was probably a skater's skater

Like cancer??.. he didn't seem sick at all.🧐

u r butthole guy@@china_is_asshole

@@china_is_asshole”sick” is slang for awesome

@@china_is_asshole No that's not what he meant at all. He probably just got a cold or something.

Right?! Should be in THPS

Except the bikini clad chicks now have d*cks 😂

March, ‘87 baby!!

November 87 here

Traitor lol

@@ihaveabooner I’m a 58 year old skater, so when I fall, I break bones, sooo, skating on blades is safer,somewhat & I like the amount of ground I can cover & all the people I talk to all over the place, soooo…. Yeah…

@@HeadNtheCloudsdo your thing, love it. Maybe i try to start again too

Yes and for some reason he looks old in the eyes here and don’t hit me with the he probably doesn’t sleep bs he just has bad facial genes especially in the eyes 😂. He still the GOAT 🐐

Tony worked hard to the GOAT.

He was the greatest by the late 80’s

In terms of doing the most for the sport worldwide and bringing it to the mainstream - yes But we all know Rodney is the true goat

The hair looks so crazy 😂😂😂😂 toner is the best ❤😂

Spot on…around 4x with inflation and technology improvements adding to costs

Right?!! That was way cooler than tonys 180

I mean, it still is.

I think that was freestyle legend Per Welinder, only dude to have beaten Rodney Mullen

😂

What the 😂😂

Do you not own a television? 😂

Most famous skaters in the world

Buck fifty is slang for $150

@@carstenpfundt Skateboards were no 150 in 87 I got my first board in 94 at 9 years old and my Dad paid 15 dollars for it and it was custom!

😅

What a meaningless comment 😂

Per Welinder from Powell Peralta, he was second best after Mullen
