- Neen Williams spent years partying through his nights and sleeping through his days, finding less time to skate. Now, the pro has gone completely sober, eating healthy and working out to make sure he remains one of the best skaters in the business.

This is like an 5 year old re-upload
Yeah Neen says in the video he is 31 and now he is 36...
I had so many friends with whom I started skating, and despite getting pretty good most of them fell into a junkie lifestyle and completely stopped skateboarding. We were by no means pros or anything, but it's sad to think how an unhealthy lifestyle ruined what could have been more years spent skating together and having good times. Props to Neen for turning his life around.
That part about “finally feeling better” after a bad hangover and celebrating it by partying is so real. Vicious cycle
This guys smart, showing that he's learning from life.
This is soooo old ugh
I was excited to see his new life in Texas
He moved to Forth Worth/Dallas Texas area!
same.
I’ve been skating for almost five years and he is right, nobody will tell you but the pain creeps in. I’m 19 and have chronic back pain (granted I’m 6foot and skinny like a rail), but skating has definitely put a dent on me. Now I stretch, eat healthy, and do things right. I can’t imagine continuing to do all of this without the knowledge that people like Neen are spreading. Thanks Neen!
LETS GO NEEN . Crazy I’ve been watching both munchie and neen forever
Re- UPLOAD LOL
That's what I thought
Been following neen for awhile. If there's one thing he's got right it's his diet. Food be thy medicine, medicine be thy food. Stay organic and stay shredding
Neen Williams is one of those sobriety success stories that rarely happen in skateboarding.
Definitely the black sheep of the PissDrunk / ShakeJunt / BakerBoys crew, very proud of him.
Eh, it's not as rare as you'd think. AVE, Guy, Reynolds to name a few.
Stevo O too
eric andre on his downtime ?
Almost all of them are sober now. It's not like it was back in the early 00's.
I remember watching the Antwuan Dixon Epicly Later’d and thinking, this Neen guy seems like a bad influence on Antwuan. But now he seems like he really has his life together. Much respect to Neen.
Oh shit I didn’t even realise he was in that documentary
@@bruhdon4748 yeah it was super brief, but they showed him and Antwuan just kinda fuckin around, and I didn’t like the vibes coming from him, but I was totally wrong.
*I swapped Acai Bowls with Tall Boys and am happier than ever!*
That’s the alcohol speaking
i know this is a joke, but gonna ruin it and say that's actually physically impossible, your body responds way better to oat and fruits than booze
@@Trippze i was kidding but since we are getting serious. how do you think beer is made? Dont be hypocritical now. Plenty of healthy stuff in “booze” too....
@@tegridyfarms6851 Exactly, Liquid bread bro
I swapped talll boy's for mary jane
So much respect for Neen's journey
I literally use this exact mentality but towards drumming. Health is wealth💯💯💯🌱🌱🌱
This was Neen's big 'jump the shark' moment in skating.
Hell yeah Neen on Munchies! Neen was one of the people I started watching right when i started to lose weight and skate/exercise. Man is an inspiration 😊
Ma
Yup, Neen's the best!
The look of satisfaction when he is drinking the smoothie!
Look at Neen man. So inspirational
“gotta stretch out all that vintage”
4 min in before I realized this wasn't a Fred Armisen Portlandia sketch. They could be twins
I love how he realized the need for sustainability and adapted to that amazing lifestyle.... but WHAT WAS IN THAT AÇAÍ BOWL?! ITS LOOKS PHENOMENAL
I started following him on IG for his health posts, didn’t even know he was a skaker. Love his IG page and his Gfs(Fiancée now). Love his his approach and mentality 💜
they just had a baby 😊😊
Love seeing Neen Williams. Wish this was a new interview though and not just and edited repost of the original Vice video
The King of Heelflip!
I'm 3 Gen Doggtown skater, I'm 45 and I started getting clean at 34. I'm still skating but I'm healthier and a trucker.
Neen is the best
That is some inspiration right there
damn bruh, munchies fully just recycling content
Legit, I remember this vid from ages ago
If Bob Marley and Ned Flanders had a baby
Shout out to NEEN Lowkey inspired me to kick back off the partying and drinking and start my healthy journey
man says hes vintage at 31 lmao
31 in skater years though lol
Neen will forever be a dope guy & skater. Love following him on the gram
BEAST, LUV NEEN🤙
Love your video. Wish more young ppl would listen to your story. You’re awesome. Keep skating but watch the concrete 🙈
Wow. That is awesome. Good for you 💗
OH MY GOD NEEN YESSS on vice

Remember dude doing japans off the 8 set at Wilson
Go crazy bro
Bought to go down the corner store get me some Fanta or redbull 😉
Wish Bam Margera could've done that
Waw his life totally change💪
ESSENTIAL
Wow. So rad. Love this guy's journey.
May God bless you, dude. 💕🙏🏽💕
31 &still hot! Lol! 🤙 You should surf! I hope you surf, too. That's the life, bro. ✌️🏽❤
Neen is the goat
🐐 lean Neen fighting machine! So happy to see this feature on one of my favorites. Neen is the shit and truly deserves all the good things happening for him. 💪🌶
Thought this was new....
Still an inspiring telling
Mad respect.
Thanks bro, vgn pwr!
Call his self vintage and he's only 36, take it he's had a hard paper round
I never really knew who he was until 2010 -2011 and i was like damn this guy on some other shit lmao
You should listen to the guy, it's not acai, it's açaí.
REPOSTED VIDEO
IYKYK
LOL this video is like 5 years old
Its all about balance... Stay in tune with yourself.
Know thyself..
But i still get bent 👽👀👁
Better title, “This is what it means to grow the fk up.”
I read that he swapped "thai boys" for "acid bowls". Need to clean my glasses AND my thoughts.
always got love for Neen, but hasnt this already been uploaded like waaay back?
Tell him post the açaí bowl ingredients
Hey vice, we get it, Neen's healthy, he eats healthy and stretches, move on
This is literally a re-edit of the same video they released about Neen 5 years ago.
"I'm 31" .......Neen is 36
@@Neo_Nomad. ya...that's what I'm saying, I feel like I've seen this video 1000 times
@@yasurebud
Fuck, you know you don’t have to watch it, right? Yeah i’m kinda bummed it’s not a newer vid, but i assumed it was a reupload by the thumbnail and clicked anyway. Who gives a fuck if it’s a reupload, maybe some people haven’t seen it. Swear, y’all bitch about the dumbest things in the youtube comment section.
That’s what role models look like. This dude should be getting paid!
He is. He’s a Pro skateboarder 😊
@@ToniLovesSkateboarding I know but I mean paid paid. Like NBA paid
I coulda sworn ive seen this already
crazy. for the 1st time in my life i started making açaí bowls for myself on a daily basis. (bout to be 29) also ive started skating again a lot more this year. just for cruising bc fuk those scooters ha
This is an old video. Why is Vice re-uploading old videos that have been on YT for years as new videos? Just post an update and link the vid like you’s used to do. Don’t be sus, y’all.
I have seen this before !!! Is this reupload?
I wish I could stop drinking tall boys so I could be fit and stand up on my surfboard
This video is quite old.
This was posted 3 years ago by vice already....
Anybody know what kind of push-up dumbbells he was using?
is this clip really 5 years old xD????
It cool that he has realized the longevity benefits of consuming nutritious foods.
Munchies reuploads a video and the comments filled with people saying so.
Gordon Ramsay reuploads a video and comments are just people telling him how great he is.
This website is something else.
no correlation bro
Both about recipes/cooking, both have large followings on the same website, both reupload content with no shame and no clear reason why, but the audience reacts totally differently.
There may not be a correlation, but there are similarities in what's happening with clear differences in the reaction.
I stand by my original statement: This website is something else.
It actually hurts me every time he is falling
aw yay, i love neen. he's so sweet. #NADC
wait, i've seen this already. 😑
NOT A DAMN CHANCE
This is such an old video from vice
Why do I feel like I've watched this before? is this a re-upload?
LETS GO NEEN!! #NADC
wait…. I’ve seen this before :/
This as a old af video they've reposted fyi
Is it that hard to write [re-upload] in the title
Skin side down
Swear I've seen this before...
This is an old video, no?
I feel like ive seen this video before
this pro skater swapped tallboys for being gay
Fuck ya neen.i live a similar lifestyle and am also looking to sk8 as long as I can.Im almost 29 and still drink a bit but compared to the way I used to live I feel better yet older.
Thanks for sharing.takes balls for a sk8er to show you care lol.
People look at me with my fruit and smoothies like wtf.weres your beer.
Relax il save it for later.
But some sunny nice days wich we don't get much of in Canada its hard not to hav pints when sk8ing.
Get stronger kids. Skate better with fewer injuries and less recovery time.
Yessssir🙌🏻
5 year old vice video released again with a new title. Cool....
I would probably never see this video if they didn't repost, whats the problem TV pass the same show 3 times a day, 5 years is a good time
So how does he earn?
I turn 31 in a few days .. Story of my life drinking stole skateboarding from me.
Re-up? 🤨 or am I having a stroke
#goals
respect! 💪👏👏👏👏
Breaking news
That’s what I’m gonna do I’m gonna start selling American rapper suits so that you can feel just like me and walk just like me and talk just like me and then have just as much money as me and then my white skin
Odd video to reupload... I saw this like 5 years ago lmao.
Very old story on him......
Damn...rehashing 5 year old content. Lol...but hey, at least it's good.
His interview drunk on Free Lunch is so good! Bring back the drinks!
