This film made me shed a tear. I was the biggest fan of the Piss Drunx 18 years ago. I would watch Baker2G then go skate every single day in the streets of LA trying to be just like him. Best moments of my life that I can ever remember. I recently decided to start skating again at age 32 and seeing Greco doing it in his 40s really gives me more of a drive to go ahead and do it. God Bless you Jim Greco. You are the man, a legend, and a genius. Beautiful work. Straight up masterpiece. PD for life ✊

Angel,,Dude not to sounf corny af but im so proud of you stranger... You did what i did and you did it 5 years before me.. I starter skating again when my 5 year old daughter was at her friends house and she had a bigger brothe rwho was like 8 or 9 years old and i saved his board and skated it back to him and he started smack talking me and my daughter said "my dad can kickflip" i was like "shut up honey ;D)" SO i tried it (in the hard grass like a btch) and LANDED IT.. Super sketch but whatevs, it was almost 20 years.. I stopped in 1994 when i was like 18 or 19... Well that was about 7 years ago & now i skate almost every other day. *I over shared hoping you would give me your similar Angel. **At my age im more curb dancing & Manny Curb stuff. No stairs at all. that summer i 1st returned i went to my local skatepark and sessioned with these two kids for 2 hours trying to land simple tre flip and when i finally got it the 1st turn afte rthe kid in front of me did it was a hellova moment for me. But i regret that i didn't perfect em and they arent part of my skating at all. But that moment fealt great.. *My favorite part has to be watching older vids to get psyched to for pre session & buying older gear from ebay like eS Ronnie Creager or Old 2005 era Kostons and old powell decks.. **Angel,,Those older Powell decks from the late 1980's up till 1996'ish were made with special wood. i learne3d this when i got ahold of a Chris Senn deck anfd a Ray Underhill deck and it was so noticable how strong the board was. How much control i had. That waw the moment i went from Popsicle to football shaped..... Damn,,i just got psyched with these mems... hope i hear from ya homie.
Damn that slam was gnarly!

@@gokermitsewerside358 I think for Greco, skateboarding is just one of the multiple ways he lives his life without thinking about the future / consequences. I'm thinking for example about his heroin addiction. His character is a spectacle. Sho knows what will happen after his career? Maybe ride a home made boat in the sea and almost die like Heat Kirchart? I admire him but I am not going to care more than he does.

Exactly. Skateboarding is a form of art, expressing yourself. You don't need a million tricks to leave someone in awe. Just those shots of him skating in the apartment was far more visually pleasing than someone getting down on El Toro.
Jim and Tom skating the city, priceless
the part where Greco and Penny are skating together makes me so nostalgic

Once in a blue moon, magic meets celluloid. The blue moon shines tonight. You, my dear James, are a genius. My life changed in 22.35 minutes.
slam was brutal. Wasn't expecting the living room scene either, last montage was heavy too! now to go back and watch the first two again.

Unlike these two, Heath is still actually really good. Dude is around 40 and still skates like he's 28. Tom and Greco on the other hand....sorry but it's boring to watch nowadays. Especially Tom Penny. Dude was sick af in the 90s but now all we ever see him do is a few basic tricks just fooling around...as if he doesn't really skate anymore but steps back on the board every now and then. Maybe he skates all the time still, I don't know but it doesn't look like it to me. His skating reminds me of myself when I was working 7 days a week for almost a year and then got back on the board months later.

It’s not genius, it’s a copy of the mood of what is genius-in Italo american cinema. Greco escapes the present by transformation: in decor, props clothing (something he always did). Architecture becomes a source of fun and visual storyteller. I find it a brave film and hope Greco keeps doing these, building himself a new universe inside the broad imagery of skateboarding-finding his own artistic language.

20:41 what a great shot. Great fucking film Greco. Good music great eye . Spot on color palette. Chose great environments that didnt take away from the vintage vibe I felt he was going for. A complete pleasure. Thanks Jim and tom u guys killed it.
Jim Greco is insane, nearly destroying his body so you know when hes older itll DEFINITELY catch up to him, would be incredible if it didnt. One day we're all gonna look back at this and know damn well this wild ass fellow was killing shit.
RESPECT and LOVE, to Mr. Greco......there's no way he'd be doing what he's doing now, if he kept using....everybody can't be Johnny Thunders and rock n roll till the wheels fall off the car......Amazing, how mature and dedicated, he WAS/IS.....even if he were to fall off the wagon, I'd still Respect him, I had gangs of friends, from many different Orange/LA/Riverside/San Bernadino/San Diego County Cities, and Today, I have only 4 or 5 that are still Alive.....every day/hour/minute/second is a GIFT......I think JG is a Skate-Deity.....but, without Will Power and the awareness/Maturity of knowing when Too Much of a good thing, becomes a bad thing, that eventually will take everything from you, including your LIFE, and maybe, OTHER's if your not lucky enough.....like, the "DEER HUNTER" movie being watched by the Female.....very Classy
This was beautiful. I shed a tear during the Penny section. It's the twilight of his skating and he brought it. A skate video has never looked like this.
This video reminds me of how much i hate my job and how good this guy is.
Still thinking of this film.
Thanks for putting out refreshing content Jim, a true portrait of life and skateboarding...
Props to you Greco for making pure modern skate art. Pure ART

The thought process and production of this mini film is valuable. Living life and skating. If films doesn’t come out in skating. We will have a bunch of KZread videos that we see today..

Greco is one of the most interesting individuals. Brilliant work.
Thank you Jim. This was amazing!
That slam was absolutely horrible and I hope that real serious damage to his lower back isn't done. On the flip side, Penny's backside kickflip at 6:19 was absolutely beautiful. Penny footy is ALWAYS appreciated. Greco's switch 50 back 3 out was sick.

Matthew Porter-mendez definitely can expect serious damage.. Man feel from over 4ft height directly onto his lower spine... oh yeah...it'll be hurting forever. Lots of PT and chiropractors will help him but it's expensive. Though I'm sure he's better a money management considering he's still in the industry like this
Talented genius in both filmmaking and skateboarding, Greco's films always makes it itch to go skate
I loved every single aspect of this film.
I slept on this one. Very good.
