That's awesome! The site seems down for now but I'll check again later.

Also I'll go ahead and plug the site I'm helping rebuild.

Yo! That’s awesome you’re working o skatevideosite! O just read your guys interview on Jenkem [0]. I used your old data years back for an article for The Pudding [1] years ago - invaluable resource. Growing up I would spend so much time on the site just finding music and skaters. If there’s an issue board or something please plug it, would love to contribute!

Woah! That's so random, I recently came across your article a few months ago. Great work and small world :)

I have a private discord and github for the project I can add you too. I eventually plan to open up the discord for anyone once we get a little further in the rebuild.

Wish there was a good way to DM on HN, I can send you a discord invite. Or if you happen to be on slap let me know.

Holy!!! That site still exists??!?!?!?!?!! I remember when this was filled with videos which were mostly hosted on what were google videos back in the day(and a small number on vimeo). Must have been 2006-7-8-ish...
