I read in another one that he was embarrassed about the mega ramp slam being in an MTV Scarred episode.<br /><br />Patman and Robin lol That's awesome.<br /><br />Agree with the Chez... when I first saw Questionable, his opener was super fucked to watch. The sheer magnitude of the size of the rails was beyond comprehension. <br /><br />Never saw that sponsor me video before... doing lots of gnarly stuff even then including shit on that big rail and a fuzzed out 360 flip down the emb seven. It kinda trips me out back then that there were Bay area skaters that shredded and made it in the industry but weren't really EMB guys.<br /><br />Duffy's a golfer as well right?Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247567303761398738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-64990923606318679192012-03-03T12:00:16.228-08:002012-03-03T12:00:16.228-08:00Man.

Just the whole intro to his part was nerdy as hell but then his part dropped and you knew this video was changing things. I'd never been more scared after watching that as to the direction of skateboarding. This guy was locking on to HUGE rails and making it look smooth. No more Julien baby rails(no disrespect). Lipslides on 20 stairs? Unheard of! I know the rest of the video didn't matter all that much the first time even though it's all time as a video for me. My mind was still reeling from what Pat Duffy did.<br />Good job Chops! I like that you pry into things with these guys but not too invasive. I have the feeling something like the Mega bail was something you just let lie.The Chezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01157572296381082316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-84445002502742596082012-03-02T20:55:23.571-08:002012-03-02T20:55:23.571-08:00Pat truly is a Terminator.

I was 7 and the older boy in my apartment complex who first got me into skating brought it over. I had never seen anything so gnarly. I must have rewound his part 5 or 6 times before watching the rest of the video. From that point on I stopped pretending the be Wolferine and Superman and started to pretend I way Pat Duffy because in my 7 year old mind Pat was way better than those two combined and the best part was... Pat was real!<br /><br />You did it again Chops, another great interview.<br /><br />When is South By Southwest? I'd like to check out Patman & Robbin and the premier of D-Way's doc.<br /><br />PS: I wonder if Pat ever got a comped Hotel room or anything cool because he shares a name with Patrick Duffy (Bobby from "Dallas" and the Dad from "Step By Step")Bifnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-58364775497664777952012-03-02T18:52:49.657-08:002012-03-02T18:52:49.657-08:00I saw him punch this super steep vert quarter at S...I saw him punch this super steep vert quarter at Shady Skates right in the balls.

Was always amazed at how humble and friendly he was, no attitude whatsoever.<br /><br />He wouldn't skate for months and then we'd drive into Reno and he'd dismantle the entire park within minutes.

I could tell that he probably didn't want to get into that whole thing again though I'm sure he would've talked about it if need be. <br /><br />We had so much other stuff to cover, I just left it at that.chopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00711198796842525605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969196656166890081.post-51801596797346041432012-03-02T07:23:40.189-08:002012-03-02T07:23:40.189-08:00^^^ yeah, wray on the new plan B seems like a no b...^^^ yeah, wray on the new plan B seems like a no brainer...<br /><br />Thanks for another good read.
