Steve "Salba" Alba | 2016 | Skateboarding Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony 

Love that they are playing X

Keep going

From his era he is the only one that never stopped since day one,for that alone he is a Legend,a legend with the best lines..

Skateboarding is an Adventure

Salbas Hair fucking Rules

Legend

Ive known Salba for over 40 years. Rowe, Bellenger, and I were part of a crew that worked at the Pipeline skatepark. Mr and Mrs Alba were a huge part of Steve's success. I am so happy to see Steve inducted into the hall of fame, Congrats Steve! Badlands rule!

By far Salba is one of the best, humble, gracious, and most gnarly skateboarders' of our past, present and future times. Big Time Congratulations Salba; if anyone has ever deserved being in the Skateboarding Hall of Fame, it is you.

Salba!!!! You rule. Vans, come on, Salba is the OG ruler and should have multiple shoes. BADLANDS.

Somebody needs to hook Salba up with a shoe. I know older dudes like myself and other 80’s kids would buy them up faster than they could make them.

I went to Chaffey College with Salba...he was in my graphic arts class...he gave me some wheels when I used to skate the Pipeline before it closed. Nice guy and super creative artist. His uncle is even related to my family in California...I went skating at the park in Austin...I quit skating a while ago and could hardly walk afterwards...He will always be a skate legend in my mind and fun classmate....

Best edger I've ever seen, oh my god you did it again

☝️🔥🔥🔥

My roots from Upland deep!

I guess someone should get him a pair of shoes. But seriously, the guy can carve.

Punk as fuck, what a legend

I rode a Kbeam back in the day

My dad didnt give up in the 80s

Just turned into telling his sponsors they don’t pay him enough and he wants more money. Yeah definitely 100% skateboarder lol

Right On 😎

Dude my dad used to be friends with Steve alba

Skated Kelly Belmar wit em

What happened to Malba?

audio is shit.

That word (cringe) doesn't apply to these guys

Shame on Steve. None of these suits lived it but sure want to make money off it. Sell out. And fyi, I've skated combi with him (insert danforth favorite phrase here).

🤣

Salba shoes would be awesome. But this is just cringe.

ripping

CRINGE WORTHY. Why did he and Duane blow so badly? But I have to say, check out epic salba run here on you tube. I would buy those shoes only if they didn't look as bad as this Hall of Fame cringe.

Watched him rule Pipeline for years as a kid. Good for him. Another Montclair/Upland kid. But I feel like the reason he's not more in the public consciousness is because he got too content to be the big fish in a small pond (the Badlands) during a crucial time in his career. All his peers came up in pools too but branched out onto the vert ramp circuit, tried to be progressive, and basically got themselves out there. Salba didn't do that. So while there's no arguing he's a legend, that doesn't make him a marketable commodity.
