He high fived me for doing a front shuv late flip down the 3 stairs - i didn't wash my hand afterwards for like a week haha. UE was the shit back then, i bought like an entire stock of their shit at the Attitude skateboardshop. Good times, glad to see he is doing well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003712626753368869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-11989395405688782042010-11-11T06:55:19.082-08:002010-11-11T06:55:19.082-08:00goodgoodjokesk8http://jokesk8.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-24200113526476895672010-11-11T06:53:52.724-08:002010-11-11T06:53:52.724-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-77549813728957667242010-05-28T03:11:02.059-07:002010-05-28T03:11:02.059-07:00Chris is by far one of the most innovative guys of...Chris is by far one of the most innovative guys of his time. I was fortunate enough to sk8 and hang with him alot back in the day, and sk8ing with him was always something new. Crazy imagination.<br /><br />One of my favorite memories is from around 1991 or 1992 around the time Chris and Pepe were filming for what would be their Skypager parts. Chris, Pepe, Jimmy Pelletier, Andy Stone, Randy Bobbitt, Eben Jahnke, myself, and others would sk8 underground garages all night long together in the dead of winter, and it was sooooo fun. Great times.<br />Underworld Element was still new, and to have friends who turned pro on the east coast was a big deal back then, and kind of a groundbreaking achievement of sorts.<br /><br />I also remember my car breaking down at Chris's parents house in 92' I think, and I ended up staying there for like a week or something, and his parents never said a word, and just fed me everyday, and never asked when I was planning on leaving. Chris's parents were the best.<br /><br />I got to repay the favor in a small way by letting Chris stay with me in Los Angeles while he filmed Daewon and some others for Get Familiar, and I enjoyed having him there, although I kinda felt bad having him sleep on the floor.<br /><br />Those kinds of memories are by far the best to me.Digznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-71294256812817353512010-01-31T18:38:58.313-08:002010-01-31T18:38:58.313-08:00useless wooden toys and rubbish heap were the firs...useless wooden toys and rubbish heap were the first video i ever really purchased. before that it was renting future primitve over and over and over watching guerrero's part. <br /><br />chris hall's part melted my mind. i watched it everyday to get hyped. <br /><br />followed his career from then on from skating to mass appeal articles. dude's shoe game seemed just as serious as his skating. <br /><br />my yellow true mathematics tshirt was probably one of the only tshirts i kept wearing after my knees didn't allow me to even stand up on 50-50's anymore. <br /><br />inspirational. keep it up chops.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04680061063746141442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-39970700642731873482010-01-31T13:07:29.641-08:002010-01-31T13:07:29.641-08:00GOOD JOB CHROME BALL!!
