TRAVEL BACK TO 2011 BERLIN ALONGSIDE TOM KNOX
There has been a lot of vintage sports stuff on TV, at least in the United States. Probably some other places as well. There weren’t any new sports to watch, but sports fans needed a little fix. Suddenly, old Super Bowls, old baseball games, and old soccer games were all over the place. It wasn’t as good as new shit, but what else were we going to do? The world had devolved into chaos.
Skateboarding has not avoided this plight. Given that, it’s a little surprising we haven’t seen even more vintage videos popping up online. Especially the stuff that predates the proliferation of YouTube and social media. Grey Mag has helped us take a trip back in time thanks to a recent video post. Back in 2011, Jacob Harris shot a video in Berlin. It features a lot of local skaters from the time, and obviously we’re really pro Berlin around these parts. However, and forgive us Germany, the star of the show is Britain’s, Tom Knox. He really takes it to the streets of Berlin. Want to feel like it’s nine years ago? We can’t blame you. Watch the video now.
