Mercer Posted May 27 Author Share Posted May 27 Outside of the few times I've been a fat fuck over my life, the most regrettable look/photos for me were 1989/90 rocking size 42 pants with a 28 waist and cutting the bottoms of the legs off during the big pants small wheels skate era. Outside of that it's cool looking back and remembering the different dumb shit we all did. Kinda regret not having more photos of it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny, I remember taking that picture 21 years ago and why I took it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It quickly started to devolve into some thirst trap shit so I took it all the way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny story: When the Thriller became MTV's first music video on heavy rotation, my mom noticed I liked the "Beat it" video from that album so she wrongly assumed I was some sort of MJ super fan (back then breaking and other shit was way cooler). So my mom goes out and buys a red pleather "Beat it" MJ jacket with the zippers and stuff on it, and this was probably the first time in my life I remember pretending I liked one of her gifts. Ended up destroying it before I had to wear it to school, or around my friends. Dude, that jacket was the shit back in like 2nd grade. I remember the cool kids rocked that shit. I always thought it looked kinda ass myself, though. 😆 And Beat It was my favorite song back then too. 😆 .

More like 92/93. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat ralphy Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 89/90 we were still rocking the standard cut decks, flat noses and shit. I remember when this neighborhood kid rolled up on the Ray Barbee Hydrant deck, maybe 91. Shit blew our minds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted May 28 Author Share Posted May 28 Yea, I was probably wrong on the timing looking back. I think 89/90 was the starter jacket era. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By 91 we had long noses and the wheels were working their way down in size. The fish tails were out, but the boards still had shapes and were wide as fuck. .

fat ralphy Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 I still ride hella wide boards - shit a board now lasts me for years haha. My Starter got jacked at an arcade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted May 29 Author Share Posted May 29 Dudes like myself would be rocking starter jackets when it was too damn warm for a jacket, sweating and shit. My plan was to always drop loot on a dope jacket and then skimp on the shirt budget all winter. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
