Hanging Out With... Asics in NYC 

Something non skate related, like hanging out with Gino

Stopped into Cafe Bella a couple years ago having no idea who owned the place and got very confused when the only decoration on the wall was a picture of Gino.

I love this video, 2:40 was crazy! But Asics should've gotten a translator for them. They're in NYC, must be loads of people who can speak both Japanese and English.

Joey’s blunt flip out was fucking nuts. Should not have been dropped in this video like a throwaway clip

Zander is such a beast! Best style, def one to watch out for

Crazy, didn't even know Asics had a skate team

That framed photo of the backside Ollie is at Stony Brook University in Long Island. I grew up skating there and I gotta tell you that bank was steep as hell, short, no tranny at the bottom at all. As far as I know Gino is the only person who ever did anything out of it like that. He also did a BS nose slide on the top of the vert wall. Most people just carved the bank without ever getting to the vert part. It had inside corners and assorted angle hips. I was the only one in my crew to drop in on it and get a lil edger grind on the top of the vert. But to Ollie out of it is totally insane and was unthinkable back then. They bulldozes it years back, but before they did the "Lecture Center" was the shit. Also had a three level pyramid all waxed up nice and tons of other great spots on that campus. Parking garages with Manny pads and curbs when it rained. Also had great live shows there. Saw The Ramones, Biggie, Siousie and the Banshees, They Might be Giants... many more. When I think of the spots there in the context of what skaters are doing nowadays my mind goes nuts with the possibilities. Hubbas all over, stairs, double sets, did my first handrail there as well. I'm stoked he has that photo hanging up. Gino was a local hero along with Ben Liversedge and Matt Bell. But Gino is still Gino.

Good to see Takuya come back from that leg injury.

"It's like better than a Street League trophy" Damn TRUE!

how did he not completely destroy this knee on that bail, that was insane!

came for the Zander

Kinda crazy someone somewhere in the pipeline (Asics, jenkem, a fuckin local) didn’t get a translator involved; it’s NYC every language in the world is spoken here, it’s just kinda inconsiderate and alienating to willfully bring these homies around strangers and a new city and not do all you can to get em more fully integrated

Bro…everyone coming out of Japan just killin it! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

how does jenkem not have access to even one japanese guy in new york to hang out with them for a day

this made me want a pair of Asics

Very enjoyable! Thanks a Million!

“Better than a Street League trophy”😂😂

You need somebody like me on the team, speaking fluent Japanese, English, and another Asian language, U.S. educated, MBA degree, skating for 20 years.

I remember skating that big ass handrail at 1 POLICE PLAZA. same thing cops tryin to kick you out & I watched Harold Hunter just blasted the nicest nose slide down it … this was the days just as Zoo / Supreme days was startin to blow up. Good memories.

Couldn’t understand each other but it didn’t matter. Skateboarding is a universal language.

Cool! Was it filmed with the AX100?

What Gino said is worth his body weight in gold

clip at 6:21 takes the crown for me ima have to try that one

Takuya is so fucking good

"he doesn't speak any English" well you tell him. "I don't speak Japanese either" LMAO

Asics Onitsuka Tiger baby!!!!!

Where the hell do you get those black and white ASICS. I need them but can’t find them anywhere!

What ASICS are they skating? I collect gel lyte V models with the one piece tongue but didn’t know they made skate shoes!?

Where‘s Walker? Would be such a addition to the edit.

Ginoooooooooooo

Asics and last resort are the future

Jenkem always has a great soundtrack. Not enough Ariel Pink in skate clips

Zander, Wasser, Alan Bell, bunch of rippers

Those Japanese dudes can f*cking skate! Holy sh*t! 🤯🤯

Who is ripping at 5:57 ?

The GangCorp rail claims another one.

Does ASICS make their shoes in sweatshops? Asking for a friend

Where is akwesi

lmfao Ian

"He doesn't speak any English." "Well then you tell him!" "I don't speak Japanese either."

Why isn't my favorite shay sandiford here?

The headphone kid from new Jersey 🤕🤕💀

first time I've seen a non-Asian repping erased

so sick

zander nation

Didn't even know Asics made skate shoes... Everyone tryna hop on a wave smh

If the Japanese language is the issue, why not bring @LuisMora from Erased along for the trip. ❤
