Guy Mariano

He was on everybody's lips, and here just just collectively slaps skateboarding with the perfect mix of power and technique…

A little look back, to the blessed (?) era of the Year 2000, when pants were baggier and with horrible cuts, and the shoes… Ah, the shoes… But let's stay focused on what matters: a time when Girl and Chocolate were at the top of the food chain, and for one reason –and the best of all– a team unduplicable (if that's even a word) for its talent pool of course, but also its styles. And, no, that post is not addressing only to those of us that are trying to hide a burgeoning belly under a hat from the latest drop. No, and this is the true beauty of skateboarding: it can be timeless, like a flatland switch pop shove-it by Stevie Williams. Yes, you read right. Why don't you check for yourself? You could get inspired…

A little look back at a time where things might not have been more simple, but they sure looked like it… And, yes, Chocolate is about to turn 20! And no, Paulo Diaz hasn't changed one bit since, since… Forever? You can not buy style: you got it or you don't.

All good stuff, already seen, for sure, but nicely put together and getting a new life out of it… Oh, and a schooling on Mike Carrol, at the end, for whoever might not know!
