Rewind: Mini Video 16 – MPLS

Rewind, Skating Videos

Mini Video 16 from Josh Ellis on Vimeo.

For true completionists only!

On the same Hi8 tape that I found “Gone Wild”, I also found this piece of ancient wiskate history, thought lost forever.  This was a weekend trip to Minneapolis in Y2K (we survived) where we skated such illustrious spots as the two stair in front of my girlfriends’ house and the old 3rd Lair.  Surprise guest appearance by Chad Benson doing a nollie hardflip stinkbug fakie.  I’m not sure how he came into play, but I’m glad he did.  Also starring myself, Mark H, and Boban.

This was the first mini video to use music.  Quite an evolutionary step.
