Epicly Later'd: Chocolate (Part 1/4)

Click here to watch Part 2 now: bit.ly/1tV3Vzg
Chocolate has always been an elite skateboarding brand, so we jumped at the opportunity to do a "20 Years of Chocolate" episode. It gave us a chance to tap a lot of skaters that have never been featured on the show before, and its an honor just to ride in Chocolate's wake.
We filmed more interviews than we have for any episode before-and this is still a fraction of the stories we could have told. The brand has gone through many different incarnations and endured its fair share of hardships. Enjoy.

    My all time favorite skate company right here!! Best boards I've skated, always the best graphic artwork too, consistently some of the sickest skaters ever on their team for years and years, their logo/brand and style of skating, the affiliation with Girl, the whole family vibe, just everything about Chocolate Skateboards is rad as hell... Can't wait to watch this!

    I used to ride ALL SORTS of decks throughout my skating years (skating for over 20 years), but the brand I bought the most decks from was GIRL skateboards... I experimented with LOADS of different companies first, like SHORTIES, ZERO, BAKER and BLIND, but when I got my first GIRL deck, it just seemed to fit me like a glove! Think it was a Rick Howard deck. I found the GIRL decks to be lovely and WIDE as well as LONG. They also had a perfect concave, which seemed to suit my style of flipping PERFECTLY. The GIRL decks literally made me a better skater, and by the time I was riding on their decks, I was busting inward heels and the like off pretty HIGH ledges, something I could NEVER manage on other decks... I think we ALL need to find the deck that suits our style, and for me, this was GIRL SKATEBOARDS. Respect to ALL you skaters, from Davey in Éire (Ireland)... PEACE!

    Same for me with boards from generator (zero, magenta, Baker, death wish, plan b etc). They are stiffer somehow. Crailtap decks (girl, chocolate) etc where always so low concave and soggy. Plus as they press 10 boards at one go you have never the same concave again as the boards in the middle come out differently than the others

    world industries and blind were cool when you were 14, their graphics appealed to kids. Girl and Chocolate had more grown up graphics. I literally remember the point where everyone started skating girl and chocolate boards, usually when they hit like 17 or 18. I still like my toy machine decks, templton has some sick designs.

    Psycho kids maybe, driller killer and accidental gun death were heeeeeavy visceral graphics. Kids might have enjoyed them for the edgy factor but artistically they were very appealing to people of my age back then, and also now as an older skater. The blind reaper, wet willy and flameboy were cookie cutter kiddo bullshit, but that marked a shift in both companies directions and also culturally. I love crailtap, their art direction was/is excellent and well rounded. I'm not being negative about them. I'm just saying that the world camp, the companies under the Rocco umbrella, were excellent at their peak moments. Changed the whole game.

    I'm very similar to Paulo in how he felt more natural in switch. I did martial arts from very young that taught me to lead with my left and therefore my left foot feels stronger, so I like to use my left foot to push and for popping (I would push in regular and then drop my left foot back to mongo and do all my tricks in switch as a kid. I used to incorporate my switching feet into tricks more and more though toward the mid 90's, like I'd do a 180 body varial and then do a flip trick. It just became how I skated. It fucked me up later in life though when I just wanna skate regular as pushing with my right feels weird, but also having my right on the front of the board feels weird. ha ha. I'm a fucking weird skater, man. never came across anyone with the same weird eccentricities as me.
