A couple years back I used to read a blog written by my good friend Todd Macleod called “The New New”. Every Friday he would do a post called Throwback Fridays where he would post one of his favorite, old skateboard video parts, which was totally radical. Todd ended up getting really busy with a new job and found himself with no time to keep up with his blog anymore, which was a total bummer. I ended up running into him one night and let him know how much I missed it and he was nice enough to let me continue it.
So here without further delay is the first installment of Throwback Fridays featuring the skateboarding talents of the young Heath Kirchart and Jeremy Klein from the 1998 classic “The End” by Birdhouse Skateboards.

Dedicated in loving memory of “The New New”.
Nice shout to Todd! that was a great blog, dude was ruthless when he saw a shoddy, piece of shit product that all the kids snatched up because they were told to.
wow. that was like Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 and Lakai Fully Flared all out of the 90’s!
This brings me back to being in 8th grade and skating over to my friend’s house and seeing this. I just remember freaking out at how awesome this whole video was. Though I must say that the Mouse video from Chocolate skateboards is one of my all time favorites
