Ray Barbee and Frankie Hill are legends. I love Ray busting no complys every few tricks. Such an easy trick but it looks so cool. Skaters these days laugh at people busting boneless and no complys. I'd rather see that than a dude doing treflips.

Jesus, all the weekends spent watching this VHS at my buddy's house, followed by endless hours of just tearing up parking lots, garages and basements. We didnt care about Anything else! Man, life was a hell of alot better back then! Growing up sucks!

Lots of stuff in the video is fantastic, but can be seen as a progression from many skaters parts in earlier Powell videos. However, the Ray Barbee segment was at the time, truly original, inspiring and amazing to watch; the way he seemed to glide around the sidewalk and the trick variations he performed were like one WTF moment after another. The shove-it king of '89.

What a fucking video.. I'm 45 years old, so you can imagine how precious it is.. Franky hill and Ray Barbee still kill me today.. I live in France, it was not so easy to find videos tapes at that time.. We used to ride for hundred km to buy them on local skate shops

The Ray Barbee sequence in Ban This is still IMO the greatest of them all. Absolute poetry. So fluid and the music! I remember watching this and my mind was blown and then went to try and learn all the new tricks! Magic. Man I miss skating. I am lucky to have grown up with the Brigade.

Didn't start skating myself until the mid 90s/popsicle-shape era, but this was the first proper skate video I ever saw, and I remember being blow away, as I am today, by the forward-thinking gap & rail skating by Frankie Hill, the buttery smoothness of Ray Barbee.

All my youth here thanks Powell Peralta to give us that motivations for the ride in those beautiful years One love from switzerland

I could watch Ray Barbee do no comply & 360 shove it's everyday forever.

This video I got for Christmas vhs when I was 12 I'm 42 this footage will forever be inspirational in everyway for me and I'm sure all u guys can relate.....we are the lucky ones to have had ths!,,, God bless the start of the 90s lol...

Dope video. Still have this tape after all theses years. Thanks Powell. Takes me back to the olden days.👍

Thanks for bringing this video back out! I watch this a million billion times. Brings back so many memories! Thx!!!

Diaz,Guy,Rudy and Rodriguez part still to this day give me goosebumps! Unbelievable! Makes me wanna grab a board again! And RIP Rodriguez!!!

First time I saw this was in the company of Tony Hawk, Frankie Hill and Bucky Lasek

So many incredibly good memories watching the Powell movies, getting stoked and going skating with mates. Powell Peralta were a huge part of my childhood. I thank you guys

What an amazing time to be alive. Thank you for all the memories!

This is the greatest Powell Peralta video ever! I can watch it everyday and I remember my progression during this time.

1989 I was in 7th grade. Had just met a new ragtag crew of friends and we would spend weekends building launch ramps, watching this movie while eating endless bowls of cereal to fuel up for skating all day. Then spend the night at friends houses and go out to skate again in quiet grocery store parking lots. Maybe waxing some curbs and doing rail slides. Then come back and pop on the radio to hear Dr. Demento or watch Headbangers Ball on MTV while devouring Pop Tarts. Maybe call some cute girls on the landline... Ahhh..the good ol' days. They go fast but they stick with you for the long haul.

Thank you! My all time fav!

First full-length skate vid I ever saw. I was blown away! Rented it over and over (and over) again from Blockbuster, finally bought myself a copy.

Thanks for sharing this Powell Peralta... an amazing video that was an invaluable experience when it came out, almost painful to watch now as it is just quintessential nostalgia to some of the best times

Childhood memories with my Street Heroes . Have all VHS and got the Copies now on DVD. Classic as it is. Music editing and the art of style are amazing and still is timeless. My 1st Board was Per Welinder and i still have it hanging on my Bedroomwall ; )

Thank you for uploading this! This was my first skate video I found at Blockbuster way back. Legendary video and soundtrack is insanely good. We need this soundtrack to get released somehow. 🤙🏼✌🏼

Ohh man,What a creation Peralta ,such an Amazing piece of History for Me!!I was 13 when this came out and was at the point where skateboarding had really become the most important part of my day,and this was my morning ritual watching this!! Has truly stood the test of time!!Brings back the greatest memories and moments of all! First board was a McGill Skull n Snake with Indy's and G Bones,Had so many Brigade boards the list goes on and on and so do the stories/moments!Wish I could still skate at 46,but shattered my ankle in my mid 30s and it's never been the same!Ohh Well, the memories and this Movie shall let me skate vicariously for the rest of my years!!Thanks Powell and Peralta and All the Bones Brigade,Truly a Masterpiece!

This is amazing, thank you. I remember it word for word . . . . .

absolute classic... i had nearly forgot .... thanks for upload

Definitely a very influential video to my skating evolution! This is the year I met some of the Bones Brigade on tour in Michigan.Love watching these throwback vids!

Thank you so much for making this available. this was a prized vhs long ago to me. 5 broken limbs, 2 dislocations and a couple concussions later, im 43 going on 12...no worse for wear...🤘😝

I had this on video when I was 14 now I’m nearly 46 when I was young there wasn’t any skate parks now I’m old they’re all over think I might get a Powell board and start again i think about skating all the time they were my best years late 80s keep it real skater dudes keep on rolling 🤟🏻✌🏼

After 30+ years, watching and listening Ban This again. ‘F got chills all over again. Makes the corona crisis bare able.

The editing on this is amazing; the clips and music fit perfectly. It's totally of its time but completely unique too. Loved it as a kid skating in rainy UK, love it now.

This video reminds me of a great point in my life when I had just started skating , the inspiration I got from these guys to learn was incredible . I have several of their boards on my wall to remind me of those good days .

I am 52. Started in 1977. I have tried to do the Ray Barbee line since 1991 and I still have never got the whole line down clean. Never will. Nice work Ray

Thank you Stacy Peralta! Thank you! I'm crying like a girl now.

I just watched this video on VHS that I'd purchased. It's truly an amazing video. I remember seeing bits and pieces back in 90ish. Although Streets on Fire & Savannah Slamma are two favorite skate vids, this one is probably more entertaining. Frank Hill was getting big as I was quitting. Man, he was sooo rad! He is probably the best street dude I've seen skate. Wow! What a ride! Great video just chock full of nostalgia! Thank you for the upload!

Gotta be my favourite Powell video.. favourite part has to be Cab on vert with McRad playing.. thanks for posting. If I could time travel back to the 80s and stay there I would…

Loving all these old deck shapes from the pre paddlepop stick era. Ahhhh the memories.

I remember watching this as a kid in the mid 90's in Toronto and not understanding how any of it worked. Then I saw the curb skating and it all clicked. Still ripping curbs and riding with rails 20 years later.

Loved the Ray Barbee clip, everything from Film style, to the music to the edit, awsome

I saw several clips from this video in 1994 in China when I was in middle school. Now I am 43. The feeling is so fresh, just like it happens yesterday. Skate for life!

Randomly looked for this after watching Z-boys on Netflix last night, I have the original VHS of this but couldn’t believe it was on KZread, the Bucky Lasek bit still blows me away after 30 years, his style and fluidity was off the hook 😎

Thank you for sharing this, right now I’m watching this and traveling into my youth through your time machine🙏🏻💯😎

Thank you for sharing this video. Here in Norway skateboarding was banned from 78 to 89 and the police were chasing people and confiscated their boards. Ray Barbee is epic.

One of the best videos,music top notch

This video BLEW my 13 year old mind back in 1989. Has skateboarding ever been in such a fast progress before or after this very time in skate history!? Frankie Hill is paving the way into the future here 🙏🏻😍

Can’t wait to watch this after work! Thank you.

this is so amazing!

I've just started skateboarding and my dad used to do it loads at the same age as me, he showed me this vid today and it's made me love skateboarding even more and wanna learn even more tricks

I grew up on this. Being from Ohio I was hooked seeing all of this stuff that you never saw here.

Damn!!! When this video came out it became my Saturday morning cartoon. My go to before every skate session.

I’m 13 and still love watching these movies, I have a bunch of ur decks and I love the way they all feel

Brings a tear to my eye, bless.

I remember that time, totally amazing !

no waay!!! thanks for this!

Such memories seeing this in late 89.....i rember I saw it first on Christmas day. New deck ...new video! Skating that night with friends while everything was closed too! Fun times! Best skate era for me 89-90! Hokus pokus best video of all time . ban this is close though !

So good to See again...Love the Style and Fashion!

Watched this multiple times a day , Cab and McGill , Frankie , Hawks end sequence all legendary parts .

This was the very first or second VHS skate video tape I bought back in the dayz. Fun good ol video! Awsome!

Barbee rocking Powell and Vision. So damn smooth. Skating just seemed to ooze character back then, what with the flawless incorporation of freestyle and actually trying to “surf” the sidewalk with wall rides, bonelesses, no comps, etc, while still throwing in more technical tricks now and then. Now, it’s just all about busting your ass 10 times to big spin or tre flip a 20 set and endless k grinds and lip slides. I grew up during the 2000s where everyone was obsessed with clearing giant gaps, but I think it would’ve been so cool to skate during this time in skate history. Thanks for uploading this timeless classic, guys.

In the day, I must have watched that Frankie Hill part more than 500 times, I even bought an ultra loose red sweat pant to look like frankie!!! still to this day, I get extremely excited!!! Best years of my life!!! 😢

Thank you Stacy for everything! (I might have, allegedly been guilty of taking a few misprinted decks from the OG SB factory)
