Everyone has made decisions they wish they hadn't followed through on & Henry is no different-he was just in the spotlight so it was made a bigger deal. As for Rocco's so deserved punch, out of respect for Henry I'm not gonna go into details on why but BELIEVE me...if any guy went through that you would have reacted the same...personally I would have kicked him a few times too but that's just me. Obviously the REAL friends & fans would kill for a final back to stay comeback but even if that never happens I KNOW Henry deserves a signature deck without having to really show & prove as he's done in the past! <br />Henry...once again thanx for making up most if not all of today's tricks, having to shin as you did & becoming part of all those childhoods who still know today who really is the KING!Luinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-52614234434475783822009-10-18T08:59:54.786-07:002009-10-18T08:59:54.786-07:00Henry had a guest krooked board which im gonna get...Henry had a guest krooked board which im gonna get one day.

I can remember seeing that sequence at the time. It was so f*ckin' gnarly, and difficult, and new (this must have been like, fifteen years ago).<br /><br /> But it was also the time of Rocco era-excess, and vibing ("We were assholes"), and attitudes. I thought it was ironic that Jamie Thomas, who used be picked on / made fun of, is now an absurdly successful pro-turned company owner (Zero, Mystery, Fallen, Black Box Distribution). At one time, Henry Sanchez might have been the best skateboarder on the planet. I know everybody does dumb shit when they're young, and for all I know he's a great guy. But when all is said and done, you wonder what might have been.Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07102150113721711187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-53664679570054364522009-10-12T08:20:10.278-07:002009-10-12T08:20:10.278-07:00http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ofUtE52lZo

This time around I'm feeling that hardflip over what I believe is the 7th St gap... am I correct in saying that's the second hardflip ever filmed? And when comparing it to Daewon's first from Love Child that was released only a month or so prior... forget about it. Its almost comical. <br /><br />Thanks for all the comments fellas.

Fucking Legend! Tim n Henrys part is just insane, sight unseen part was too dope, he told me that he liked making that part the most because he did a lot of stuff people didnt think he could do. <br /><br />That part kinda was his comeback back then, then he quit and came back in about 2007, he worked on cars and had a lil t shirt company going I bought a few shirts off him, I like em, he had the epicly latered that was dope. <br /><br />He had some new park footage with a few street clips was amazing to see but he didnt come through with a part or a sponsor.

To t...yeah... the Henry epicly laterd was awesome.<br /><br />To tell you guys the truth, I thought Henry's comeback pre-dated Guys. I always viewed the Sight Unseen shared section with Marcus as his comeback part... so good... then he unfortunately disappeared shortly after.<br /><br />Are we gonna see comback, part deux? Doubt it but you never know!<br /><br />Another observation. Henry's rocking flat bolts on that Thrasher cover... nov 90. I didn't start using flat bolts until I visited SF in the summer of 91! There were 2 options... Real flat bolts and FTC Basic bolts. Remember all those terrible bolts before flat ones? Standard round heads, bridge bolts, thunder bolts (notched bolts you hammer onto the top so no screw driver required). Terrible shit!Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247567303761398738noreply@blogger.com
