Keith and Annie. When I met Keith I knew he was a skater but had no idea he was from New York or was a good skater. We just knew he must be a good guy because he had captured Annie’s heart and she was bringing him around in San Diego. Five years later, he was Keith Hufnagel in bold and was quietly lighting it up and loudly burning it down. #ripkeithhufnagel @keithhufnagel @hufworldwide Photo: @skatepunk22 Mark Waters (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBxGsSFgq8/?igshid=148s99d3by0cr

I love this one because Chad Muska and Larry Balma are from such different corners of skateboarding but each really embraces the camaraderie and spirit of skateboarding. @themuska #larrybalma (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGdpsBxlq8N/?igshid=fuhjv6akzzxu

I listened to Toby Morse’s podcast interview with Steve Caballero today. It’s an excellent listen and well recommended. Stevie talked about lots of things, including cassettes, and I’ve kept this one close throughout the years so I put it in today. The perfect season! Two songs with Stevie singing and playing guitar and bass, and his friend Marc Gonzalez playing drums and keyboards. At this point I was starting to realize that Steve was one of those guys who is good at whatever he does. The photo is by our friend Bryan Temmermand and i remember seeing this and being so bummed that Stevie had asked Bryan to shoot it and not me. Which was ridiculous, since I was living in San Diego and only in SJ once a month. Completely stupid and typically immature of me during those years. Bryan rules. @stevecaballero @bryan_temm @tobymorse And how good is the candy cane on that amaaazing LP Custom? Everything about this is perfect. Steve, do you care if I post the songs? The podcast is called One Life One Chance. #checkitoutjohn #skateboarding #punk #christmasmusic #stevecaballero #bonesbrigade #gibsonlespaul (at San Jose, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6PIRCDlw-o/?igshid=ofxuijy0jyil

Pure energy, pure stoke right here. I’m generally drawn to challenging people or to super easy-going people, and over the last 25+ years Andy’s been both, for sure. He’s been a fun friend to travel with, shoot photos with, and raise hell with, and it seems he’s gotta be on the short list for the next philosophical figurehead at the mag, right? #andyroy #thrasher #skateboarding #mypeopleskateboard #tellemyouloveem (at Vans) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ME827lpRT/?igshid=1c1zyaiioub3b

Rich Jacobs is many things that I admire, including kind, gentle, calm, curious, and intelligent. Yet the thing that I always realize about my friend Rich is just how generous he is. He has connected me to so many great people, projects, and ideas, and to so much general goodness in the worlds of skateboarding and art that he is my own personal Kevin Bacon. I’m sure he’s like that for many of us. And I am thankful to be in his circle. #tellemyouloveem #richjacobs #art #move #movement #skateboarding (at Brooklyn Bridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1HgdLAhdyN/?igshid=jsoqo8q17xpi

This is Hi-Dutch, a very kind and genuine man, artist, and friend from Japan. The language barrier ain’t got nothing on the heart. #hidutch #artist #skateboarding #averyowenwaters #art (at Harry Wirtz Elementary) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1E8B01FGFA/?igshid=1glm2kzjpaeve

Skateboarding legend Gabriel Rodriguez died on Friday from complications of colon cancer. Nobody really wants to talk about the unpleasant subjects, especially ones having to do with our butts. If we’re keeping it real (isn’t that what the realest dudes are always trying to do?) then things like getting scoped are just another phase of reality. The good news is that nobody really needs to talk about it. Just do it. Just go deal with a few hours of unpleasantness once a year to make sure that you’re here for a long time, to skate and live for those who can’t. 🛹 Gabriel was a wizard on a skateboard. Ban This was the official signal that a new era was upon us, and Gabriel was instrumental in sending that signal. Always a real dude and a skateboarding original who will be missed by his community. #ripgabrielrodriguez #skateboarding #mypeopleskateboard (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1DC-EtFX9j/?igshid=1lahyd2toznf0

Gary Rogers is on his own little hell ride, on the crest of this crazy new wave of skateboarding media. From a local skate shop YouTube show to global attention to @thrashermag to announcing X-Games to... the #Olympics? Could you imagine #skatelinenbd live from Tokyo?

It’s difficult to put into words how much impact Willy Santos truly had on the evolution of modern street skateboarding in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He was constantly and quietly pushing the limits of what could be done, as well as what could be done well, and consistently. I know that skaters from that era have the utmost respect for Willy but it seems his quiet demeanor and polite mannerisms didn’t always fuel the spotlight. And he’s never shown that he cared. One of the all-time greats. #mypeopleskateboard #willysantos #skateboarding #willysworkshop #miramesa #sandiego (at Mira Mesa, San Diego) https://www.instagram.com/p/B08pcISFe0_/?igshid=9qk45lpwtpsx

Ray Barbee, June 2019. Like many of my friends from skateboarding, I’ve known Ray long but not too well, and after thirty years, as an adult, it’s been great to get to know Ray better the last few years, with some good conversations about life and art and quality time spent playing music together. #tellemyouloveem #raybarbee #mypeopleskateboard #skateboarding (at Vans Off the Wall Skate Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B06QrjDF5xW/?igshid=1x7t7losrdys8

When he can skate a mini-ramp like this at age 12, just think what the future brings. Follow Gavin Bottger @gavinbottger Filmed by Scott Bottger @scobot686 #skateboarding #skateboardingisfun #mypeopleskateboard #miniramp https://www.instagram.com/p/BzIv_BNlYPX/?igshid=10glcb4ngce1x
