90s Skateboarding Throwback: Big Brother’s Most Iconic Video

90s Skateboarding Throwback: Big Brother’s Most Iconic Video

If you’re over 40 and still lying to yourself about “getting back into skating,” this is your wake-up call—in a good way. Back when you actually skated (or at least slammed hard enough to convince people you did), life revolved around garbage music, filthy jokes, and skating that made zero sense but somehow changed everything.

This is that era. No polish, no permission, no clue what was “appropriate”—just pure, chaotic skateboarding.

This was one of the greatest skate videos to come out of that mess, and yeah, it was the first one Big Brother ever shoved into the world. And like everything they touched, it didn’t just show up—it kicked the door in, tracked mud everywhere, and told the rest of the industry to loosen up or get left behind.

While everyone else was busy trying to look legit and impress sponsors, this thing was out there being loud, stupid, hilarious, and way more real than it had any right to be. It didn’t follow the mold—it snapped it in half and laughed about it.

So if you’ve been itching for that old feeling—the one where you thought your body was indestructible and your only responsibility was landing something sketchy—this is your ride back. Go ahead, press play, relive it, and ignore the part where your knees immediately file a complaint.
