Welcome to 4-in-1, issue number 41, here we are in Lausanne, Switzerland, filming for
the Europe 2000 video.
But starting off in this issue, it's going to be a Tamiya road trip to Canada.
Steve Barra, Day in the Life, Joey Pulsifer, Rookies, Powell's taking us to Puerto Rico,
we have a main event article on the pit, a spot check at Sandima Skate Park, a Sorichiro
Nakajima, Wheels of Fortune, did I get through that one?
We have a South American road trip with New Deal, spot check at Mission Valley YMCA Skate
Park, a Stussy road trip to Japan, a Rodrigo text, Wheels of Fortune, and finally for the
third time we have it ending with a Girl in Chocolate road trip, this time it's to Europe.
What was carved in granite is wiped off like chalk, what was ours is now yours or mine.
I guess in our own mind, what am I wrong?
I swear to you this is the last time I write this song.
I'm sure you're sick and tired of hearing from a child.
I feel kind of lonely, I won't be dying for a while.
In search of a quiet life, in search of a quiet life.
In search of a quiet life, we are falling.
In search of the righteous life, we are falling.
We are falling down.
We are falling, we are falling.
We are falling down
Yeah-oh-oh
We are falling down
We are, we are falling down
True, true
What's up
Yo, what's up
Yo, pick up the phone
Hello
What's up
Yo, where's Dukie
Yo Dukie
Yo
What's up
Hold on
Hello
Hello?
Yes, sir!
So what's up, B?
Watching the game, having a bud.
True, true.
So what's up, B?
Watching the game, having a bud.
So what's up, B?
Watching the game, having a bud.
Woo!
You alright?
I've got a million things going at a time.
Sometimes I do everything in this world, besides skate.
I've got a million things going.
This is all our movies.
We have a lot of movies.
They're mostly Juliette's.
Because she got nominated for an Oscar.
So you get all the movies, they send you all the movies.
How annoying is this?
We don't have many DVDs yet, but we're working on it.
Sometimes we see our neighbors over there.
You know when we're nude sunbathing and stuff.
This is where I write all the time.
I even see, look at all my Post-It pads.
I'm in the middle of writing a script right now, so these are all my notes.
That sums up the marriage.
Sometimes throughout the day I have to sign certain documents.
So what is this now?
This is for the house that you're buying.
Oh, since I just recently purchased the house.
So here's this for you.
Let's see what this is.
Oh, wow.
It's my very own signature skateboarding card.
An inline skater.
Are you joking me?
What a bunch of dipshits.
Normally I like to start the day with a nice breakfast.
But before I go eat breakfast, I like to call up what I like to call my dogs.
Muska.
What's up, dogs?
It's Bereska.
Bera.
Steve Bera.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay, I'll talk to you.
He's going to call me right back, so we'll be expecting a call from Muska.
Let's give Cream Campbell a call.
Cream, yeah, what's up?
Bera.
Steve.
Hello?
Look at that.
That's probably Muska right now.
Hello?
Yeah.
Muska.
This isn't Muska.
Eric.
Yeah, what's up?
Want to go get something to eat?
Oh, okay.
Oh, we're right there.
What's up, man?
How you doing, buddy?
Just chilling, chilling.
Yeah.
It's custom.
Yeah.
What's up?
Just chilling, chilling, chilling.
Heard that you lived around here.
Gabe, what's up, bro?
How you doing?
Chilling?
Hey, man, peace.
We'll see you later, all right?
So right now we're going to go.
I've got to go pick up some footage.
Being as famous as a skate store as myself, I have the 411 Video Magazine.
I've got Friends in High Places at Logic Video Magazine.
I'm in Top Demand.
And that's all I really can say about that.
So we're going to go out to my park right now, building a skate park for myself and all my homies, my dogs.
We're in the middle of construction of the park right now.
Just the metal needs to be put on everything, and we just need to clean up and clear out all the tools.
Right now we're headed to this place to do a read-through of a script.
Actors get together and they all kind of read parts, read through the script to see how it sounds.
And the reason we're doing this is it's a movie that I've been working on.
That you might direct?
Yeah, that I might direct.
We are now at the United Talent Agency right now, where we're about to do the read-through of the script.
With a lot of actors, you might not want to film all of them because they might get camera-shy.
Let's blow the damn thing straight to hell!
You let one feather fly from my bird-hound and I'll whack more than your weeds.
In fact, I feel...I feel lucky right now.
The location right now is Jumbo's clown room.
The mission is to see my friend's boyfriend play in a band.
You know when strippers go and look for a job and they apply at all the swank spots in town and get turned down?
They end up here.
This is where I met my wife.
I'm on a roll!
My ears are ringing from our wild night out at Jumbo's crown room.
My ears are ringing, too.
That's why I said, our ears are ringing.
Fame.
Ain't it a bitch?
Hey, my name is Sean Scott.
Question 411.
Mmm.
The recount is rising in perpetual writing, inviting more children, and the sanity nails.
Awakened in the morning, to more air pollution warnings, still we sleep while we're off to work.
The more stunts kids see, the more normal they think it is, and the more they just do it without hesitation.
He's been the best skateboarder I've ever lived.
If Joey's having a good day, then he's amazing to watch.
If he's having a bad day, he's funny to watch.
Boards flying, tempers flaring, face beat red, it's good.
I reckon Joey Pulsifer is probably one of the most underrated skaters, really well rounded, and I'm proud to have him on the Excel team.
Joey skates for War Effort, Excel, Universal, Hotskates, and Fresh Jive.

We're in Puerto Rico, it's great.

Hi, it's Chad Knight.
Welcome to the Mission Valley Skateboard Park.
These are the assorted mini ramps.
We've got your baby ramp, toddler ramp.
This is kind of your junior high ramp, I guess.
And then here's the normal one, which is a little wider.
This is the six-foot spine ramp that you really can't skate after about 4 o'clock
because the sun sets and you get a big shadow and you can't see what you're doing.
This is the miniature golf course ramp.
You've got little bumps, waves, vert walls, spine.
It's fun. It's mellow.
Low impact.
This is a ski jump.
Built for catching bad air.
Pretty fun.
Launch out, grab your board, get hurt.
It's a good time.
This is the monster vert ramp.
It's 13 feet tall, 14 and a half foot extension.
All the vert skaters, the pros, come down here to ride.
It's pretty damn big.
And I guess we're going to start having vert contests this summer coming up.
Got a big channel, some areas to chill up on the deck.
This is the street course.
Your picnic table, your rails, your ledges, flat bars, a variety of quarter pipe.
The skate park is located in Mission Valley in San Diego,
right off the 8th freeway between the 805 and the 15.
If you come here, you're welcome.
Let's go.
Let's see, Rodrigo.
He's 16, acts like a kid sometimes, which is great,
and acts like a real mature adult sometimes.
He's super motivated to be the best skater he can be, and I love him.
The first time I saw him skate was when I was 15.
He lands the tricks so easy, makes it look so natural, and I love to watch him skate.
He's one of the kids that you watch skate and you feel like skating,
and he just amps you.
He's just one of those happy kids.
I'm really stoked I've met him, you know, just for his friendship.
Let's go.
Get on with it.
We have a special guest tonight.
His name is Mr. Williams, and he's coming here from Boston.
Let's go.
I wanted to be able to ride a board that would last more than a day.
I used to have to set up a board at almost every spot.
The cruise board is 7.4 inches wide,
Let's go.
This is one thing that I was going to wait a while before we talked about.
Maybe we'll talk about it now so you can think about it,
because we all have to make some kind of plans for ourselves.
It's a free concert from now on.
The one major thing you have to remember tonight when you go back up to the woods to go to sleep,
or if you stay here, is that the man next to you is your brother.
So, we'll better treat each other that way, because if we don't,
Let's go.
That's it for issue 41. I hope you enjoyed it.
Make sure you check out Tampa 2000, which is out now,
and Vancouver 2000, which is coming out very soon.
Until next time.
Let's go.
