Euro Super Tour Big Brother #29 1997

Back to the Big Brother retrospective! This week we dig into the first DC Eurosuper tour article. This article was also featured in the Big Brother video BooB. In the beginning of that video clip you see a young Rob Dyrdek apparently huffing on what seems to be a nitrous ballon. At the end of the clip we see Rob in wawa land my money says he probably fished at some point that night. The DC super tour article is probably one of my favorite reads by Sean Cliver! The stories of all the places they went and mayhem they caused is top notch (again sorry I am lame and don't have a proper scanner) This issue also has some really good ad's and interviews with Scott johnston, Rudy Johnson and Caine Gayle.

Huf banging out a three flip for the cover. This gap is no joke!

I was once told by a very reliable source that Rob Dyrdek went a whole year on no make photo's. Thats pretty gnarly. I want to say that it was either 97 or 98 that this feat went down. If it was 1997 then one must say that this switch tail was not a make? I don't recall ever seeing this footage?

Classic Menace and Sheep ad's. Damn I wish Menace was still around!

Here we have the one and only Jefferson Pang advertisement for the Zoo York Army!

I think this photo of Rick Howard is one of my all time Big Brother photos!

I am pretty sure this ad was shot shortly after the passing of Mike Ternasky. I really would have loved the chance to meet him! I spoke with him once on the phone and he was super inspiring! RIP

Could this ad be the birth of the word "street wear" in skateboarding? I am pretty sure they were attacking Fresh Jive with this ad. Fresh Jive used pornstars so Fuct got a penthouse pet! haha

Ahh The good old news section! Always some breaking news reported here! I loved how Big Brother printed everything no one else would! Like shit that really happened! In this news section there is a story about the Supernaut crew almost dying on the freeway to Oregon and getting chased out of Burnside by Osage at 3am! There is also the Simon Woodstock story about getting sued by Rocco!

Here are a few of the better quotes from this issue!

"What do you have to do to get in trouble here?" - Colin Mckay in Amsterdam

"All my dreams have came true-I am finally in Amsterdam!" Chad Muska in Amsterdam

"Bill Danforth can come back now"- Eric Koston after observing the latest skate trends in TWS

"Lets get out of here, they might think were jerking off in here"- Rick Kosick while raiding the porn stash at hustler

Damn Adidas you've come along way since 97

Like I said in the introduction this article is super good! Can't post the text but here are the flicks

Caine Gayle with a backside flip

Huf with a monster heelflip in sweden!

Scott Johnston was always a pleasure to watch skate! Speed control and style not to mention the dude had the best FS 180 Switch crooks in the biz! Plus back in the day Mad Circle was dope!

I wish I still had my Mad Circle tee like the one shown here! 5 Flavors for life!

Colin Mckay spread bowl transfer! Damn man those dudes loved to push Thrashers buttons!

Mini Rudy Johnson interview~ Man I wish Rudy would have gave us just a little bit more than he did! But none the less the guy was fucking so stylish on a board!  

This interview is pretty hilarious! Shipman was dope. there are definitely some wild stories in this one!

Rick Howard with a FS Noseslide in Germany

Rudy Johnson with a switch FS tailslide

Lots of good stuff going on in this interview! Talk of Kris Markovich and the troubles he had with other team mates on Color and Prime! A great story also on a driving BJ!

The set of stairs P-Rod and J Rogers made famous, Caine tackled first Redondo Union High Kickflip

I am going to have to say this wasn't a make!

FS Tail slide at SDSU

Yes the X-Games have been wack since 1996. 

This is a good interview with X World pro Ron Chatman.

Paulo Diaz subscription ad

Big Brother reader survey. Wonder how many people filled these out and sent them back to BB?

At the bottom is a questioner about the first annual BB awards I am not sure if this ever happened? but one of the questions was "Which of the following pros do you think is the best shitbag?"

They list Bill Weiss, Andy Roy, Bo Turner, Ethan Fowler, Tom Penny, James Kelch, Matt Beach, Clyde Singleton, Chad Muska and Sean Sheffy. The other questions are just as good!

Sick Scott Johnston ad for DC. That clocker shoe sucked though!

Axion when it was good! Well somewhat good!

Vans use to be all over the place with there ad's. There was no direction at all. This one was horrible!

Damn how times change! This line up is so fucking sick!

Finally a really cool duffs ad featuring Karl Watson and Danny Supa SF to NY. Two of my favorite places to skate there respective cities!

Video's Videos videos...

So yeah I joined the Youtube revolution to see if I could possibly make a little extra coin off following skateboarders around for the past 15 years. Its starting to jump off a little bit I have a little over 23k page views in one months time. I am not sure if thats good or not? Compared to some guys on there who have like 10k plus subscribers and 800k views, I think I am hurting. Some of the bigger skateboarding pages on there have the fucking worst content. I really don't get it? I m putting up History and dudes are killing it with games of skate from people I haven't a clue about? I guess I need to get my #hustle on and post shit like #weouthere in order to start slaying the game! We Out Here is probably the fucking worst saying of all time. It makes no sense at all. Anytime you step outside your out there. Retarded..

So here are my 5 favorite videos I have up loaded so far!!

#1 Rodrigo Petersen and Rodrigo Lima! I have no idea why this video only has 452 views this shit is so legit even by todays standards! 

#2 Steve Shipler footage tape aka sponsor me tape. Shiplers a ripper who never got a chance to brake out into the industry. He rips harder than most and is humble as pie! In all my years filming him I have never seen him freak out or even get mad! Shipler is quite a smart dude who has like 6 degree's in college so he will be just fine! But its still a shame he never got the chance to shine!

#3 Now this one is my biggest hit so far and only cause it features a very young Marius Syvanen trying to lipslide the Hollywood High 16! This footag was all shot one day skating the streets with Muska!

#4 Here is another video that I cannot understand why it only has like 400 views? Fuck am I doing something wrong or do kids nowadays have no clue with what good skateboarding is? I think this is some really insane footage and its very rare. Surrey is a beast and every kid should be buying his Mafia deck!!!

#5 This is my homie Tyler who at age 12 I met and started filming! People took notice and now he is getting proper flow from some really legit companies! This kid is going to be a good one to keep an eye on! Mark Appleyard told me quote "Yeah, Manchilds good he'll be pro one day for sure"
